Colditz
By Jon Urry on 01/11/2005 16:41:47
It's every officer's duty to escape. So our four battle-weary soldiers slipped the confines of Blighty for the freedom of Germany's autobahns to stretch the legs of four very fast bikes
?" asked the cop. After much fumbling we raked together 45 Euros, which he took, before letting us on our way. That's the great thing about Germany. For a country apparently so uptight it has some very relaxed views on speeding. On the motorways the general

Cold Play - Staying in
By Visordown Team on 20/10/2007 18:46:04
The team get together for a long night of beers, pizzas and DVDs to review what's hot on the box
line in threatening pouts. We're too sober and too cynical. If it's meant to be so-bad-it's-good, we're not falling for it. 2/10. Probably should have saved it for later (see Torque).7.55 The Great Escape. This is more like it. We play the opening

James Whitham Column - Jun 2009
By Ben Cope on 01/06/2009 14:35:11
Mr Whitham makes the trek down from ‘Uddersfield to London to not win a literary prize for his fine book, and is completely aghast at the price Southerners pay for a cab ride...
.And speaking of Angelsey, don’t miss it. The facilities are a bit primitive, but the track itself is great fun. Flowing and undulating with a smooth surface and plenty grip. It’s a bit like a smaller version of Phillip Island.My book was up for a literary award

First Person: Mark Croft
By Visordown on 23/09/2008 14:39:50
...Mark croft is the petrol head husband of former atomic kitten kerry katona. Among his many toys he has a new found passion for all things Ducati...
to escape from the press, I’ve got a Porsche 911 that will do that just as well as a bike. On a bike no one knows who we are and we can get around no problem. People recognise us when we go where other bikers are, but it’s never nasty comments that we get

Jamie Whitham column - Jan 2006
By Jamie Whitham on 01/01/2006 09:46:11
Testing can make you slower, but not if your throttle sticks open
because I'm filling in the gaps in the driveway round the house, and widening it at the same time. I bought the Zeta as a non-runner, but I fixed it up and it runs great. I also bought a little tipper trailer, made out of a two-tonne Dodge flat-bed truck

Mike Scott Column - Sep 2006
By Mike Scott on 10/09/2006 12:28:09
All the inside racing gossip that's fit to print from Mike Scott, TWO's GP paddock oracle
. Casey Stoner is also 20, and also keen to replace Rossi as the next star. He's also pretty focused, but there's some character there. He gives off a simmering aura reminiscent of another great Australian rider. Pedrosa may be like Doohan, Stoner reminds

Barn Storming - Wheeldon Farm Suzuki
By Colin Goodwin on 13/01/2009 17:14:22
From as little as £189 Suzuki will lend you a brand new dirtbike, all the gear, professional instruction and even a fully-enclosed track to ride on at Wheeldon Farm in Devon. And it’s a top day out.
Wheeldon Farm Punter VideoWhen I was 17 I staged a re-enactment of the Steve McQueen jump from The Great Escape on my Suzuki TS125 using a large hillock on some army land at Aldershot. Like Steve I fell off. I didn’t end up in barbed wire but I did
