    Scary stuff that was, I would imagine if he told you the story in person it would be a few hours long and even more interesting.

    The thing I don't get is what happened to his bike during those 5 weeks?
    I higly doubt they would have looked after it.....

    Damn that was good, he told it a hell of a lot better than it was acted.
    What made it real was hearing the emotion an turmoil in his voice.

    Must say watching and hearing the keys up the nose bit was worse than any jackass stunt, damn!
    "I came into this game for the action, the excitement... go anywhere, travel light,... get in, get out,... wherever there's trouble, a man alone... Now they got the whole country sectioned off; you can't make a move without a form."

    Paved roads are just another example of wasted tax payer dollars.

    I saw some of you guys talking about this yesterday, so decided to sit and watch it. Well ..... I was captivated from start to finish, and then ended in tears!! Yeah yeah silly woman I know. What an excellent story!! There is an angel sitting on that guys sholders. What stood out most for me is that after that ordeal, he continued his adventure! Who is this guy? I take it he has done more in his past?

    He is a seriously hardcore biker...
    He's so tough he can ride a yellow BMW and no-one makes fun of him.

    Damn! I didn't know that was on. I'd followed his adventures on ADVRider, but haven't yet bought his book. A good idea for Christmas!

    So - did anyone record it?
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....
