Yesterday, we smashed 100,000 subscribers. 100,000 of you watching the videos, shopping with us, turning up at the workshop, and backing what we do, worldwide.
That support is the reason this channel exists. Whether you’re here every week, just for the riding, or purely for the installs, you’ve pushed us to this milestone and beyond.
The team at A Bike Thing just wanted to wish you all a very Happy New Year 🎉
This year, we’ve almost doubled the channel from 57,400 subscribers to 93,500 and 5.6 Million views... Honestly, that’s down to you.
Because of your support, we raised £25,500 for Derbyshire Blood Bikes, we’re opening our first US installation centre, and we’re even getting the chance to tour and ride with you lot.
We’ve worked on hundreds of bikes this year — R18s, Harleys, GSs, GSAs — and with everyone from Charley Boorman to Sean & Emily. It’s been a genuine privilege.
We’re proud of what we’ve built, not just as creators, but as part of this community. Here’s to pushing it even further in 2026 👊
Last month we achieved over 1.7 Million views across our channel, largely down to our Charity Raffle Campaign, so thank you all SO much for supporting us over the last few months... Getting tickets, resharing our posts, watching the live draw... We appreciate it so so much, and you are the reason we raised over £18,000 for the Derbyshire Blood Bikes.
We have very big things coming in the future, so stay tuned everyone, but until then, stay safe behind bars!❤️❤️
Bit of a late post, but Inmates... Just over 2 Weeks after we hit 9,000,000 views on our channel, we SMASHED 10,000,000!
We really appreciate the support you guys are showing us, especially with the raffle bike which we will be picking the winner for in just over 2 weeks. We couldn't do this without you all, and the constant growth and support we're shown just drives us to be better, and bring more to you all!
I cannot believe we hit this so quickly after 9,000,000...
Inmates, just 2 months ago we hit 8,000,000 views on our channel...
Already we have smashed this out of the park with 9,000,000 views! Thank you so much for watching following along, and watching with us every week. We couldn't do this without your support, and we appreciate it more than you could ever know. We are growing, and growing fast!
Inmates! We hit 8,000,000 overall channel views... Thank you so much for all your support, you have no idea how much it means to us all here at A Bike Thing. We have some fantastic content coming to you over the coming months, so stay tuned, the fun never stops when you're behind bars!
That poll really took off! We wanted to give you some more options, plus a solid deadline... So if you head to the link below it'll take you to the updated, final poll to decide which bike we will be giving away at some point this year, there are 9 NEW OPTIONS to choose from!
Already done a post on this but I think it must have glitched as I cant see it...
Inmates, we're thinking of doing a new giveaway here at A Bike Thing, and you know what that means. One lucky viewer will receive a BRAND NEW motorbike, completely customised to its full potential by us here in the workshop. Our last giveaway was a BMW R1250 GS, but we wanted to switch it up this time, and put the choice in your hands, what bike would you like to see in our next giveaway?! Comment any other bike ideas you may have, if there's a comment that gets loads of likes we may pick that one!

Unwinding with a cuppa tea thinking, should we run another raffle bike? And ended up watching this……
If we do another project bike and sell raffle tickets, what bike should it be? Ducati? R1300GSA? Have your say?
