Never liked cooking programs but must admit loving the places they are visiting.

Yes, it was good. Great scenery. Next weeks should be good too, down off the Alps to Italy.

Agreed, I've watched them before but they are really likeable blokes, there's something wrong with you if you don't like these pair, they're ace

I did spot a triumph sprint like mine towards the end when they met those peeps from Huddersfield, I'll have to see if was anybody off my sprint forum.

They came to Carrickfergus a couple of years ago when they were making a series about local food, two nicer down to earth blokes you could not find. They had time for everyone and made sure that everyone there got some of the food this new series is their best yet.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to disagree with the consensus on this one. I've watched many series over the years, but have always been disappointed. Motivated by the 'bikers' title I watch avidly, but rarely get more than a few minutes of motorbike content. There is little information about the bikes or the routes. I want to know why they are riding different bikes each series. Are they their personal bikes? I guess not. What are the merits/faults of the bikes they choose?
When it comes to the cooking (I do enjoy cooking programmes) the outdoor cooking format has been done to death and often in a more entertaining way.
If they pulled up on their bikes, bought their ingredients in a local market and then rode off to a nearby beauty-spot/campsite, unpacked their cooking gear - stove, pots and pans- from the bike panniers and got cooking I feel it would have more relevance to 'bikers'. When I'm touring -home or abroad- I really enjoy seeking out good places to eat- cheap cafes or street food. They are among the highlights of any trip. More of this please.
Either beef up the biking content or change the title to 'Two nice northern blokes do cooking'

Best episode I saw was a few series ago. Morocco
