Came across this on Youtube recently. I'm 8 episodes in and really enjoying it so thought I would share.
It's basically a behind the scenes documentary of British rider Lyndon Poskitt competing in the unassisted Malle Moto bike class in the Dakar.
Each episode is well filmed and edited. Take a look! Link below:

That was an awesome series! Somebody posted it in the Dakar thread a while back and it saved me because I was running out of moto videos to watch while doing cardio. I finished all 19 but I think they were coming out with a 20th, I haven't checked yet. Only problem now is I can't stop talking about how this cold needs to go away so I can mo-O (moto) lol

He has done some amazing work over the years. The dude even raced Erzberg on one of his Rally bikes. There's something soothing about watching him tear down and rebuild his KTMs as well

I followed him during the Dakar rally. IMO he had the best media of all the moto racers- even better than the factory teams.

Lyndon is super cool and one of the nicest people you will ever meet.
It comes through in his videos and they are super easy to watch. Probably the only series I've ever watched that I enjoyed the non-riding bits more than the riding. Cool hearing him tell about everything. I learned a lot about Dakar by watching it.

His clothing sponsor AdventureSpec also has some vids about him from both other rallies, general adventure riding, and 2017's Dakar when he first tried the Malle Moto class. Good shit. Lyndon is every bit as friendly in person as he comes across in video. As he explains in the video I posted below some really tough choices were made so he could live a dream.

this series was seriously TOP NOTCH from the quality to production to the action shots and the behind the scenes! in fact all of Lyndons vid series from other rallys and such are really worth a watch, be careful a few hours will be gone before you know it, and like someone else mentioned the AdventureSpec youtube has awesome quailty stuff as well! recommend highly. Lyndon is the quintessential mans man and bad ass for sure!

Yep, was a ripper series and really showed the full side of the Dakar far better than the official coverage.
Made me look further into his story and now am a massive fan

Ive been subscribed to him for the better part of a year and a half and always look what he is doing. Him and ARiemann (AUS guy?) I kind of group together for quality offroad content. I watched all of his videos leading up and thru Dakar and what a wild ride!

Dude is a bad ass on a bike, and seems like a seriously good dude. His Mongolian Rally video is awesome too...from being DQ'd from a misunderstanding, to being reinstated dead last and working his way back up the rankings was something to watch. I'm a huge fan. I even purchased one of his Races to Places Dakar '18 shirts

Thanks for posting that, I thoroughly enjoyed watching. Well put together.
My adventure meter is now pegged.
