Bike TV programs
I'm going to be producing some bike related TV stuff, in everyone’s opinion what would make a good program. I'm thinking: a good riding tutorial including bike setup, new & second hand bikes review, behind the scenes race stuff/in the pits…
These programs need to have longevity so no race results or weekly news stuff which will quickly date.

Any thoughts?

Cool
A bit of historical/evolution of bike models, how they have improved and evolved. Eg Monster, GSXR, Fireblade.

How they handle/power difference etc!

Decent presenters who do not present the program as if we are 5 year olds.
Not too much of the hoodlum element.

How about a look at some classic bikes and or classic racing aswell. There's no shortage of people who own modern bikes but have old iron as well. There has been some real rubbish done in the past, did anyone ever watch that bike based quiz show on M&M? Also some fairly good stuff , always enjoyed that program that followed club racers on M&M. and the one with John Cantrel , sorry i can't remember the program names

What about some stuff on touring /overseas trips? I used to like "Motorcycle Voyager" magazine (till it went kaput). I don't mean "Long Way Round" style stuff, more basic than that.
