A few motorcycle-related TV programs I've watched lately.
Mythbusters
The guys set out to discover whether a motorcycle can be
ridden over water. The answer is yes - for a bit anyway. The finale was Jamie
riding a bike into a lake at 80mph and skimming over the surface in a
surprisingly controlled manner for 100yards before losing speed and
sinking.

Guy Martin's Speed
Motorcycle racer Martin takes on a number of speed related
challenges. This week he also tries to ride on water. Last week he attempted to
break the British paced cycle record.
James May's Toy Stories
Top Gear presenter May attempts to ride a bike made from
meccano round the 37 mile Isle of Man TT circuit. A very slow circuit but the
programme has plenty of footage of the island.
Available until 11 January on BBC iPlayer
Channel 4OD & BBC iPlayer are only available in the UK.
