The Hairy Bikers
« on: August 21, 2009, 09:40:16 AM »
Came across this article whilst perusing The Scotsman online today.  http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/features/Cook39s-Tour.5575343.jp
Just wondering if we could get a review from some of our cousins across the pond.  What kind of bikes do they ride, is the program entertaining, etc.? And what in heaven's name is a 'buttery'?  The deep fried haggis doesn't sound that appetizing although I have eaten a decent haggis once or twice.

I saw that.  They are also on a couple of Guzzi's, some Hardly's and some other two wheelers I couldn't quite identify.  Wish they would show the program in the USA.

I see if I can't get my wife to download  (UK Torrent) an episode.  Enough Dr. Who, enough TV Burp, enough You've Been Framed.   :o
