Some to get you started.

Crazy Ed March on his C90, many episodes - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVqpNG ... jh-nAxEk4A

Oisin Hughes - Solo RTW, probably my favourite (Go to the "Not Dead Yet" ones) - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwLW2I ... _no7MmpkjA

Sibirsky Extreme - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnzDso ... tFsMfoDJ4A

44Teeth - Always amusing are the "Budget Bike Battle" little series that they run. Think they've done two or three now - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS2b27 ... 6MvjdmHGIg

There are a few on Amazon Prime if you have it. Although they're a bit overly dramatic for me.

Try Million Dollar Bogan. He’s Australian.

Various trips on Harleys, don’t let that put you off, there’s plenty of off road and daft antics.
Plus his Monkey Bike charity ride.

Brainrotting. He did about 25 short episodes, riding from the States to South America.

They are both on stop at the moment as the rest of us but plenty of past episodes to while away a little time.

Back in the day, I used to watch the videos of all the passes in the Alps and beyond
On Alipne Roads.com. it was just superb. Not sure if it's still up and running.
Every pass on camera from A bike. :D

Try 'Itchy Boots' and ''Girl on her bike' on youtube; both are watchable

I must say I’m bored of Itchy Boots’ travels through South America - she doesn’t engage with people she meets, it’s very formulaic and the filming/photography is not the best. It’s a shame as I enjoyed her first trip. I still subscribe to try and support her.
I’m still enjoying ‘On her bike’.
I’ve just watched Ride with Norman Reedus - I’d never heard of him but his total positive Americanism is strangely infectious. He stops to see some great bike related stuff and the photography is lovely - it’s making us want to do another trip of America.
Also watched Nick Saunders going through the America’s on a T700. A shot film but lovely photography - again, makes me want to ride through Central America.

I think this forced lockdown is crystilising my desire to do some big bike trips sooner rather than later - or not at all :o

I find I can overload on biking stuff sometimes, and start looking elsewhere. I found quite an interesting documentary about restoring an old SAAF Shackleton and it’s subsequent doomed flight to the UK, all captured on film. Comes in two parts, and one hell of a story.
