There was a show on Triangle TV last year.I think it was called The Motorcycle Show ( who'd have thunk?)And was available on DVD.

I thought that was the gay channel?

Good idea - as long as there are not too many 'secrets' given away, you know? Big brother and the great unwashed are watching....

A mate of mine made a pilot motorbike show to show TVNZ and TV3 and PRIME, although PRIME and TV3 where the most interested, it was a case of not at this time. TVNZ couldn't be arsed.

Wait until petrol prices hit $2/L and more people buy bikes, might see a little more bike orientated tv (probably all be focused on the evils of bikes though!)

How about starting it out as a Website with a TV name, look and feel? Build it up to a point that you've got sponsors, advertising etc, etc, then you will find it easier to get funding to move it to TV or just keep it on the net and make money.

Just like 'Derek the Chief' shows how to cook fish on 'Gone Fishing', there could be a 5 minute 'Maintenance' bit on each show. Some mechanic showing how things work. (This is a vacuum shutoff fuel valve. this is how it works.... If your motor won't start, this is one thing to check .... etc. etc.)

shut up....

Didn't Jonathan Bentman host something on Sky a few years ago? I seem to remember seeing something -- and enjoying it.

Thank you!
Kiwi Rider 'Born to Ride' in 2003.
I was on it too - how soon they forget.....
It's in that pile of derelict vhs tapes over there.

I think NZ on Air needs to fund a motorcycle show.
It could promote the motorcycle "seen" in a different light, I guess?
Sorta like that performance car show on sundays.

You could have ole WT hosting the show with regular guess spots of mates talking about bikes.. Heh

I reckon it would be a bloody good show

I've tried to get one produced by Greenstone productions for the past year .. apparently, the NZ motorcycle community is too small to have a show for that audience..


plenty of Boi Racer dickheads to watch that shit and who thought up Camp Jim and the Biggest Loser???

[Hitcher]

The content could be prepared with both a biker and non-biker audience in mind. Don't forget that lots of non-bikers watch and enjoy MotoGP and SBK. Promoting motorcycling is about selling the sizzle, not (just) the sausage.

For example: "being safe on the roads" could help make cagers more aware of bikers, as well as increasing biker awareness; "roads fondly travelled" is as much about the experience as the mode of travel; bike reviews help sell bikes and get more people on and enjoying them; yada yada yada.

He should blow up bikes that we hate, like goldwings

It could have a segment, blow up a pig! We should start with a goldwing and go from there. Or we could see how long it would take to burn into nothing. And we could do a segment called smoke a boy racer where we cruise around looking for a boy car and video it getting beaten.

Am I being facetious, thats for me to know and you to decide!
