I kind of get it, but I think it's just refreshing to see someone so totally and utterly out of their depth at times yet still pushing on. I can't understand how she can setup camp after all those miles in appalling weather day after day. It would absolutely do my head in!

I've just paid for the 44teeth "Directors Cut" version but annoyingly can't seem to actually download it - rather I have to watch it online.

I'm always here, like a bad stain. I don't miss the KTM as much as I thought I would... very excited about doing some proper miles on my MT-10 this year, but I've struggled to find time to get out and film bits and pieces - the car part of my job is too busy at the moment.

Been watching a lot of Saffy Sprockets stuff in prep for my first Euro Trip.

Sad to see her break her ribs when she was so close to the end goal!

Some of her stuff did verge on "Zen and the art" but have started to enjoy it again.
I admire her for having a go, I can't work out if she's really brave or totally oblivious to the risks.

But also find her quite hard to watch because she is so clueless.

See Rest Day Rider, a lady with similar motorcycling experience and producing similar content, but a very different, more mature (in both senses) character.

Yeah seen a few of her videos. Saw her bike at the Dragon last weekend as well.

Anyone watched Bikes of Rye and his unfortunate disaster with the Yamaha?

I started watching bits from him when he was doing the blackbird build…

Totally out his depth, on a cold driveway with almost no knowledge, skills or tools…

Not sure I would ride one of his builds… but good to see someone having a go and getting stuck in..

Always seems to move forward and just keeps going, got to admire that, especially when filming it all and putting it up for all to see.

I've watched some of her vids. She's intelligent, but I find her inspiring in the manner of "If that muppet can do it, so can I!".

Don't really watch any American stuff apart from Revzilla. Ari and Zack seem like top blokes and some of the adventures they go on are great. Enjoyed the latest Yamaha TMax 500 race bike episode.

I watch the shorts / reels from Mike Abel - Abel Motorworks

Seems a decent guy, fixing bikes, just easy to watch when you have a coffee for 5 mins and you might learn something

Riding With Tom/Nerb1 - Aussie dudes who do some cool enduro rides with buddies in Aus on various bikes. Very envious of the open terrain they can access so readily.

Saffy Sprocket off you tube for a while now too… looks like a pickup smacked into the back of her on the bike.

Quite curious on this as well. Every social platform of hers is stripped of all content. Strange..

I like Tim Roadies stuff, the Voges Mountains series with a bit of WW1 & 2 history in was good.

Have also watched Tea Pot One & Richy Vida's stuff in the Picos/Northern Spain, got some decent ideas of roads for my trip later this year.

Really quite curious as how someone with quite the following and internet fame has just quit and disappeared.

Spending the weekend doing maintenance and found myself watching bits of the Dirty Garage Guys stream. Seems he's having a go at JHS Racing now on the 44teeth channel.....

I think he dared to "have a go" at Alan Milliard once, saying something about it being fairly easy to stitch two air cooled engines together, yeah lets see you try it, in fact I don't think I've seen him do any quality work at all.
Only used to watch sometimes because I'm not a massive Delboy fan either, another Youtuber with more subscriber's than actual skills, but when he used to show routine jobs on his bike it always looked a right rusty heap.
