They were fun to watch quiet enjoyed them, seen them both twice, Charlies race to Dakar gave you a incite to how tough the Dakar really was. From the start you could tell he wasn't going to finish, cant say he didn't try, he rode with a broken hand have to give that to him.
That series sold more BMWs than any other single bike related movie in history I bet. Those things started popping up all over the place out here like you need that big honking thing to go up and down the "Tarmac" as Ewan would say... Hell one of the guys that comes to the BBQ every year rides his, and he's damn fast on it, too.
