Motorcycle reviews.......but from experienced people who know WTF they're talking about.....like Neevesy from MCN, MotoJitsu, or Fortnine.

I don't put much weight behind these guys who borrow a bike from the local dealer, ride round the block, and then present themselves as some sort of authority on Motorcycling.

Motorcycle restorations.....dash cam car/bike incidents....and How to do things..... Motorcycle/scooter reviews are of little interest to me.

I use to watch vids that a guy posted of tours around the Lake District and North of England...but so few watched them that he gave up doing them

I watch allsorts of bike related videos. Adventurers, bike reviews, bike repairs, etc. There are so many to chose from that I tend to go back to certain YouTubers that I find entertaining or informative.

The last one couldn't afford to keep me on due to the fh16 engine going pop otherwise I'd have still been there!

So it's a common occurrence in transport that if an engine malfunctions they sack drivers? :classic_unsure:

Is that right @boboneleg @Clive?

And does it happen with buses @Buckster?

I'm not sure it happens all that often but the company started up last March and was down to 1 truck and so they say they needed to pull in the purse strings so they don't go under.

At the place I worked they would not have any drivers there at all if they sacked them for destroying engines 😂 

There was one 7.5t driver, he ripped off a tail lift, tried to get the lorry under a bridge that was well signed with the height limit (height of the vehicle prominently displayed on the dash) and ripped off the roof and bent the tail lift leg, he also had several minor accidents with cars, so they put him onto van work, he chucked a nearly brand new Renault Traffic  van through a hedge, written it off, they did not sack him, put him on inside work in the laundry,  he left a short time after, and started doing agency work, driving 7.5t vehicles again. 😂

If you work for a one man band then it's perfectly feasible

I wonder if there could be a common denominator in each of the sackings?

It isn't always sackings, this last place was more of a redundancy, we're still on good terms.

The place beforehand I left before I smacked the owners face in because he was a complete bellend.

Place before that was trade plates, I left there to go in to full time employment.

So at no point have I been sacked, I've left of my own free will to go to another place that seemed at the time to have better prospects
