  • We made 29 videos in 2022 . Which ones did YOU appear to enjoy the most ? Which video did I most enjoy making ? Please feel free to nominate your favourite video in the comments below!!
    A passionate follower of motorcycle racing , what is my brief take on the 2022 season? Fun?
    In 2022 I decided it would be a good idea to have another go at track days 🤦‍♂️🤪. How did I get on and would I recommend it to others ?
    We also ventured into the world of "outside broadcasts" covering auctions and shows . You appeared to enjoy them . What are they like to film and make?
    What are our plans for 2023?
    I mention a lot of videos in this year end review ! The links are :

    Sorry if I am a late comer as such and have missed a trick but for 2023 it would be very interesting to know a little more about you!! So for example where did the name come from? What did or do you do for a living ?Where abouts do you live ?etc etc etc Now if any or all of this is in a past video "I applogise" and all I can say is I wish you and your family a Very Very happy Christmas and lets make sure these vids keep coming in 2023!! Take care and have a good one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Thanks Allan . I am retired now and live in Oxfordshire . I ran companies for city investors - which was pretty intensive but great fun . Nice to have time to ride bikes rather than just look at them sat in the garage 👍 My wife , joked that we could go to garden centres but I said I will make RUclips videos as a hobby 😂

    The last thing I thought I would get interested in was motorcycles in 22. It has been years since I've been on one so congratulations you not only got me interested but I purchased a 2020 BMW r1250r. I'm really looking forward to your trip to Spain with the Misses. I'm partial to your channel because of your tongue in cheek delivery, beautiful country side, experience, passion, and willingness to reminisce about my generation. Thank you Michael!

      Thank you Spencer . My Z900rs should be with me early January but I will wait for the salt to clear before beginning the running in process . My last one took much longer than they recommended to actually bed in so I will be interested to see if the new one is the same .
      I will have a chance to ride the New Royal Enfield Hunter soon and will probably compare it to the Meteor and classic versions . 👍

    Honda 400 Four and the Honda SP1/RC51 as this is the one that got away as I would have loved to have owned one. I had a VFR 750 F-S (great bike!) and its big brother the VFR 800 Fi RC46 which was a bit bland. Great review Michael!

Thanks for your insights and I hope next year gets even better .👌👍

      Always good to hear from you . My memories of the transatlantic trophy and challenge races are slightly muzzy but I did enjoy them . I seem to recall some of the riders rode in different classes on the same day . Some of the bikes were GP style but if I recall correctly bigger cc ? Other races were superbike style ? I have memories of a blue and yellow Morawaki in there somewhere ? 😂🤪

    Pleased to have found your channel Michael. An interesting mix of content and nicely presented. I particularly enjoyed the Ducati and Honda bikes that very much took me back to my youth, but I’m also enjoying content that I would not expect to find so interesting. Prior to 2022 the last bike I bought was a new Yamaha FZR600R… After a break of around 25 years I’ve eased back into it with a Panigale SP2. It’s crazy how easy it is to ride and I’m looking forward to track days for 2023 - when I was young a litre bike would break your leg just for looking at it, but the modern bikes are very different. I’m tempted to find a SportClassic for the road. Have you tried one? All the best for 2023!
