This installment is about motorcycles. Vietnam Style.  Guys you MUST see this. I think Thunderbeast will get some great ideas for his planned link up ride.
Title is "the hosts head to Vietnam..." Beer will be spewing so drink responsibly.

Why is "bra" singular and "panties" plural?
Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane ?
If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?
Why do you have to "put your two cents in".... But it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?

Its a UK tv Show.
One of the best UK tv shows to watch if you're a petrol head.
Three guys take the p*ss out of each other.
They also set wierd challenges to be completed, usually man versus some petrol driven machine.
All with a British sense of humour.
Do a google search on "top gear vietnam"

Now you get a small idea of waht it's like there. Malasia, Philippines. All very similar. particularly when you break down there will be a flurry of activity to assist you. Loads of Fun and little chance to get a decent sized motorbike. They all got ripped off. For $1000 you can buy NEW 100-125cc. Less for Chinese copy.
I think I'll draft y brother into one of these trips. Three of us would be so grand. And we'd ship the suits home. $125 for a custom tailored suit.
I wanted to cry when they trashed the gallion.

I loved that. I wonder if we can get that on direct? That would be cool if MC were the main mode of transportation here.Although I love my nice warm truck on icy roads. 
No matter how far you push the envelope,its still stationary.

Oh yeah, part 2. While not the same "riding" in this segment it is still entertaining. I'm curious to hear Circlip's take on this show once he has a chance to watch it.
Just in case this goes offline I've captured a copy of it. (Thanks YouTube Catcher!) FYI Thunder Beast, part 1 is about 270MB, part 2 about 60MB... if you want PM me your address and I'll burn the files for you on CD. Might be quicker for the USPS to transport it across the country than for you to download it.

That was great, I dig the guy that used a strainer for a helmet.
There's some episodes on youtube, I found one where they went to Alabama.  I give these guys thumbs up for what they did at the end.
