    Yeah, I do and don't care for the way he does things. He takes it really seriously and I love planning that kind of stuff down to a T as well, but it seems like he maybe takes it a bit too seriously. I feel like sometimes they should just ditch the motorcyclist and got for it!

    Does anybody know when the next segment will be out? He/they said it was being "edited" a few weeks ago on FB!

    fyi All the videos are now on youtube in case anyone is interested in seeing them, and Vimeo.

    Im a big fan! He does good work, good footage, and excellent editing.
