On Any Sunday. The best one - end of.

A Close Shave. Front wheel drive Brit bike. Plasticine makes better films than Hollywood - fact.

Faster. A great, if brief, insight into the way those chap's heads work.

Great Escape. Steve McQueen sticking it to the Nazis, and on a bike too, cool as a very cool thing indeed.

Easy Rider. I understand the criticisms, but you can't view it with modern eyes and see what it was about, it's only tangentially a bike film. (Think: Zen & the art).

Worlds Fastest Indian. Fun, nice that it's slightly true.

Does anybody else watch Sons of Anarchy? I'm on season 3

STRAMASHER · 07-09-12, 09:04 AM

Sex & Violence + Mo'Bikes = I'm in.

2nd series really ramped up the quality and Uncle Henry was in it. Excellent. The "Irish" bits were hilarious in 4th. Was worried it would be the usual Yank IRA love-in. But it was just about palatable.

Looking fwd to series 5.

Can't believe the "pretty boy" is an aye-oop geordieman. Bet it beats playing a ned football casual!

Does Tron qualify? Love the old and new.

Wild hogs and freebird are both easy watching and funny.

The main IRA geezer had the worst Irish accent I have ever heard. Im from Belfast myself and me and the missus found it hard to watch those episodes, how hard can it be to get an actual Irish actor?

I have just got the Movie Freebird on DVD and have not laughed so much in ages.

There are parts of the film that remind me of my youth, mind you there are parts though that remind me of last week too!
