Once again while bored at work as always ,

Was thinking what if they did topgear for bikes and not cars,

If you could choose the presenter's and the " stig "
who would be your line up for the show anybody you like dead or alive, who would you choose given the choice

Barry sheene would have to be on there, think he'd have to be a presenter though, maybe Carl Fogarty as the stig.

See the fifty other topics about this.

You couldn't do "A top gear about bike rather than cars", because Top Gear's not about cars Smile.

Given the current trend to safety nazism we are more likely to see a top "10 man love positions" on CBB's that a motrobike TV series.

Unless that series is about how to ride a bike safely.

Considering Hammond and Captain-Slow both ride and have a love for bikes, they'd probably be quite well suited to this 'Top Gear with bikes...' Laughing

Christ..it wouldn't degrade top gear by reviewing a few bikes would it?
how many million bike riders (from memory 3-4mill) would be tuning in to see the latest offerings from manufactures, or watch captain slow bin a triumph rocket.
My choice for 'Stig ona bike' would be Neil Hodgson..he needs a job !

Pat

Proper fuckin' HATE that Clarkson

Not 100% sure thought so to start with but looked like it was struggling in some places. Can't seem to find anywhere that states the capacity of his scootay.

*edit* Just found out it was a Vespa 125 Super.
