Of course you do......but we would say that, wouldn't we?? Bring that bike when you join us (see...hope never really dies).
But seriously, the telly doesn't do justice to the real thing.

My god he is one funny man

my sides are sore.

He is in Rotorua at the moment, looking at the devils bath and bubbling mud....

He started weeks ago on Stewart Island and is traveling north... lovely roads..

And Yes BOTH MV's will be traveling south with us providing we like it there

I wonder how many months/year will pass before we get to see it. Did he bring the trike over?

They've already played it on NZ TV. They're replaying the Aussie tour on TV1 at the moment.

Yep, riding it everywhere except on the "corkscrew train" least I think that's what it was, somewhat drunk for that episode

Aye he is, but I would say that cos mah mither is aye frae Glasgy. We'll just have to wait to see the NZ series (seen Britain, Ireland, Scotland & Australia) - hope it's soon.

His trike that he brought over to Australia is one of the few good looking trikes I've seen

Are you sure it`s been on Slim,it`s a BBC production and first time of showing over here.I`m not a great fan of his but the show`s interesting and getting up to the bits I`ve been.Think it was timed to tie in with the Christmas release of the DVD,Connelly`s rendition of the Maori song (Kare Kare it sounds like)is bloody awful and if he ever goes back to N.Z. he`ll get lynched for it.There`s a good one coming soon about Ewan MacGregor`s round the world trip,book,DVD are out but the show`s on SKY so I wont get to see it for a while.

are you sure? so many of us seemed to have missed it. I had been looking out for it.
I saw him on his trike cruising around Hokitika when he was here filming. Not the first thing I expected to see in Hoki on a quiet week day!
