Hi all,
I travel abroad next week which will include a shitload of flying and bussing about Europe. So i'm putting the feelers out for the best moto videos you know of that will keep me entertained.
I've got the usual Moto 5, 6, 7 movies, nitro circus films, etc. But I'm talking more about documentary or feature type films such as TT3D Closer to the edge or Senna
So it's not just restricted to two wheels
I'd be interested in a good Dakar film or Finke desert race. Perhaps there's one about the GNCC or something that you know of?
All suggestions welcome. Thanks!

If any sunday was a glimpse of the 70s - fast forward 30 years -> on the pipe part 1 is a modren day classic , kdub , mc , Larry Ward , JS7 (on 125), RC , Reed , Renner , Nate Adams , Travis Prastrana all in their prime ! everything that was worth remembering of the last 30+ years lol
On any Sunday Is great to see such passion with such crappy bikes and crappy times , I feel sad for those guys ,like I do for all two stroke riders , just got too old , bike tech didn't catch up and they missed REAL mx , like when it became a real sport I mean!
Fast forward to - on the pipe part 1 - mx is a real sport , first clips of the switch to fourstrokes , plenty of two strokes & they covered all the information like they are introducing you to the sport and its players / anyone who hasn't seen this ! This is a must see!
Next: The Adventures of Twitch & Scummy ! These modren day warriors , as kids , innovating the world of metal mulisha , again this movie is full of cultural references , information , behind the scenes look at a couple of the best riders Cali ever produced / also a must see !
Some of the best movies that have been made are the bar2bar series!
2003 was the first dvd
2002 was the last vhs tape (lol in 2002!) (Shows you how behind mx was with vhs tapes still in '02 lol)
I have ALL of them!
But if I had to hand one 'non-riding person' a movie and say : this is motocross !!
I'd hand them : on the pipe part 1
Notable others; 199 lives of TP, Ironman of Enduro : David Knight, 2005&2006 erzberg rodeo movies ! (Prastrana , MC , Knighter)
Too name few ....
Hope this helps !!
Have a good trip !!

supercross --- movie sucks but its got the guy from revenge of the nerds in it...
Pit Row
Worst part of Supercross was having revenge of nerds guy playing a hardcore boss. All I could think about was Revenge of the Nerds. lol
I uploaded it to my youtube some months ago, it might be blocked in some countries due to copyright music though!
edit: I also really love the Terrafirma series, it's more freeride and random mx action shots, but got that sweet oldschool mx vibe!
