Quite like their videos, they seam to have more production values than some that find their way onto TV.

Was expecting more in the way of advice for passengers and riders, but a nice little video.

As for that road Tuna Canyon, would like to give that a go. Reminds me of Elan Valley. If only they would make that one way...

I was expecting them to crash? What am I missing?

Sssshhhh, mate you can't be telling people about the Valley. They'll all wanna come to Wales ;)

I actually prefer that Rideapart is non-preachy and is more about just having fun riding. The Hillbilly Hillclimb episode was a good example. Just go out and do it for fun. Why should we need any more reason than that?

Have you ever ridden Pillion with someone who's really good or really fast? Once done, never again! If you want to see a better example of what I'm trying to say, watch this Randy Mamola vid from 2 min in:

I love it! I've never been on the back of a racer or anything but I used to go on the back of my uncles and his neighbour quite regularly from when I was about 13ish, scared me at first but then that fear kinda turns into adrenaline :D
I guess it'd be a different story with a racer though but my uncle was far from slow o.O

Oh its good, but bad, and then good again. Problem is everything looks like a potential crash or near miss as a passenger. Too stressful for me! lol

Now that's how to give a pillion a good ride :smt101
Happens to be from a local dealership, dunno how they got away with riding the m62 like that. Well I presume it is.
