    I dunno. He had them all on youtube, removed them, added them back and removed them again. Then he started reposting reedited versions.

    How many megabytes would each episode be do you reckon?
    I only have a dongle and I don't want to get carried away watching this!
    Went over one time and got a bill for €170..:(

    I just downloaded them all incase they're removed - total was 5GB - streaming would be less than that, but I'm sure you wouldn't be long going over a 1gb allowance..

    I have them at 9gb! I have a few downloaded from vimeo and they're smaller, longest one is 35 minutes and it's 180mb, most of them are around 125mb.

    I took them off YT when they were still up, & took them down in HQ/HD. Have the lot coming in at 30 odd gigs :eek:

    Looks like he has a book coming out. Hopefully he will also do a weekly video episode.

    He does make it look easy, all the wonderful things and all the bad stuff edited out. The logistics and the financial cost must be huge....I mean I did six countries in 5 days in Europe and I was in bits when I got home. He seems like such a nice guy....thats what makes it worth watching for me. No bull**** just him and the open road.

    He has started to upload videos from South America now. There's one from panama, Bolivia and that one from Colombia you've linked. He's also reedited some of the original ones but not sure how much new footage is on them.
    Fair play to him for sticking at it, must take some time to do all the editing. Great viewing all the same.

    Yeah originally there were 33 videos, now Mongolia is number 40. Must get busy and look at the south American stuff.

    Ive stumbled across this fella


    I havent watched any yet but I will soon. He does a world trip on a sports bike. Its a few years old but could be worth a watch to pass the time.

    After watching the first 3 parts I agree with you mak. It's not edited great and lacks actual footage on the motorcycle. I'll check it some of his more recent videos. Perhaps he got better at the old vblog since

    Thanks for this. Just finished watching them and found it entertaining, That crash in Japan just goes to show even for an experienced rider it's plain silly trying to play catch up on roads you don't know on a bike that powerful or any bike for that matter.
