Motorbike TV

Motorbike TV returns with a bigger, bolder new season, now co-hosted by Charley Boorman! Did you know he’s done the Dakar? Following Lara Small’s segment on the Isle of Man in season 1, season 2 also sees her return and in episode 1 we’re following her on one of her race weekends. Our new regular 10-in-10 interview segment starts off with a chat with Charley himself and Tales from the Trails moves over from Adventure Bike TV, starting with the first of a four part adventure in the Peak District. To cap things off we return to Sweet Lamb Adventure Rally Bike Academy for part one of the Motorcycle Olympics.

Season 2 of Motorbike TV sees the return of Old vs New where this year, Charley and Graham compare the BMW R1150 GSA to the new R1250. In 10-in-10 Graham and Charley meet Vanessa Ruck aka “The Girl on a Bike” and we look at the aftershock of Lara’s crash at Oulton Park. Then it’s back to Sweet Lamb for the first contest in the Motorbike Olympics: The Hill Climb

Episode 3 heads back to the Peak District with part two of Tales from the Trails and then in 10-in-10 we talk to Ben King who, at 21, attempted to become the youngest person to travel solo around the world on his Honda CRF250L. Then, in part 2 of Old vs New, Charley and Graham swap bikes and try to agree which of the BMWs is the definitive one. Finally in the Motorbike Olympics, the presenters take on the second challenge.

Season 2 of Motorbike TV is back with a full episode devoted to electric motorbikes. We’re trying something that (we think) has never been done before: A 6 hour enduro, pitting our team of Motorbike TV presenters against a team of Motorbike TV viewers.

This episode Graham take some time to indulge Lara’s love of all things Ducati with a comparison of the Panagale V4S vs the Multistrada. In 10-in-10 we interview Sam and Clare Farah, hosts of our sister show Adventure Bike TV and then Sam, Tom and Graham return to the Peak Districts in Tales from the Trails. In the penultimate Motorcycle Olympics, the team tackle their greatest challenge yet: The Quarry.

In the final part of season 2 we’re heading underground in the last part of Tales from the Trails. In 10-in-10 we ask Bruce Smart the big question on everyone’s lips: “Why aren’t you in season 2?” Lara and Graham swap bikes in the second part of Ducati vs Ducati, and we round out the season with the final challenge of the Motorcycle Olympics where the last 3 competitors take part in a head-to-head.
