Anybody been watching this on a wednesday night ?
Guy Martin is a pretty funny bloke, keeps calling everyone chief.
I bet half the country has no idea who he is , never mind what he has acheived.
Overall a good program.

for all you that are interested he has a feature film coming out called (TT3D closer to the edge)
the trailer looks amazing for it and he quite literally is a legend any one who can get up from a crash at the TT with 3rd degree burns and say-
"That was pretty bad boss get the tea on"
is a fucking legend in my book.
any ways the link.

Nice link, wish there was a thanks button
He's popped up in a few places lately.
- He was on the Gadget Show a few weeks back testing bicycles
- He's in this month's Evo driving a Focus WRC car.
Do quite like the show though.
