The guy who makes the motorcycle videos. You'll mainly find me riding big ADV bikes somewhere and talking nonsense to a camera, and every now and again I even make content that you might find useful.

Which would you rather take for a spin? šŸ¤”

Was just sorting out some media and found this photo, one that I’d completely forgotten that I had ever taken. On one side, a shiny helicopter that I regularly dangled under to go help people that had got themselves into a bit of bother. On the other, a bike that regularly gets me into a bit of bother! 🤣 Suppose it’s a bit yin and yang.

Both those ve-hi-cles photo well, eh? šŸ’ŖšŸ»

What was your first bike? šŸ¤”

I was just sorting out load of photos and found these beauties - me and my good friend Sean riding sports bikes in our yoof.

Bike #1 with a black Suzuki SV650. I bought it from ā€œup northā€ from some dodgy geezer who clearly hadn’t maintained it, and who mugged off a very young and naive Ollie Moto. Knowing what I know now, there is no way it would have passed the fresh MOT that came with it, and I would not have bought it. The bike lasted a couple of months but then blew itself to pieces on the way back from watching the BSB at Mallory Park. Shame, it was fun to ride.

So, bike #2 was a Kwak Ninja 600. I absolutely loved that thing, rode it like a hooligan and went touring all over the UK with it. I didn’t have nice gear back then though, just a tent bungeed to the rear seat and my (quite clearly) oversized textiles. I think they were my Dad’s.

Happy times. Happy memories. I wish Sean still owned that Repsol VFR400 too. I’d buy it off himšŸ‘ŒšŸ»

The Ollie Moto shop is back up and running! And, to celebrate, there's even a sale on a few items. It's all up for grabs - t-shirts, hats, mugs, neck tubes, stickers... etc - so go and have a browse.

My bobble hats are super popular and tend to sell out right away, so if you've been pining for one for a while, I'd get one while you can! And yes, the bobble hat in this photo is (quite clearly, and intentionally poorly) photoshopped in... šŸ˜‚

I won an award! I didn’t get the opportunity to brag about it at the time, so I’m going to do it now: I was only voted The Trail and Adventure Motorcycle Podcast Favourite Guest of 2023! šŸ‘ŠšŸ»

I’m a big fan of the TAMPodcast, and they’ve had some mega guests, so it’s pretty cool that I somehow won. The actual physical award may be tiny, but I’m still pretty humbled.

I doubt I’ll be able to defend my crown though having not been on there at all recently. Also, knowing Clive as well as I do, having used me to gain traction and fame for his channel I’m sure he’ll just discard me now. Never trust a SBW. Noel’s alright tbf.

I’ve had a lot of questions recently about whether I still have the Batbike. Of course I do! I’ll never sell that thing.

It is currently dead though, and I haven’t yet found the time to fix it. Don’t worry, it will definitely be back on your screens at some point… breaking now.. requiring more fixing… šŸ˜‚

Remember that time I went to Morocco? The recent one, not that Bodge Tape trip I always bang on about, well before the start of the official Wheels of Morocco tour I stole a GS1250 and went for a spin in the desert. Enjoy!

A while back I went riding with my good mate Whitey. I don’t get to ride with him much nowadays, and it was a right laugh. It involved the normal stuff, you know, ride a bit, fall a bit… that kind of thing!

Ok, I know it’s taken me a while, but the Rally Duck Full HD series is finally complete! I managed to get a load of it finished off during my recent air-time whilst travelling around a bit, and it’s turned out all right if I do say so myself…

We didn’t make the race, as most of you already know, but we did build a killer bike that Harley-Davidson are still showing off around the place. If you’ve not seen any of the series yet then you’ve got 14 episodes to catch up on!

What’s next for the project? No idea, ask Aled šŸ˜‚ We both feel like we need to finish what we started though, and it would be nice to actually see it race after all that hard work! Still the most aggresive thing I’ve ever ridden.

Anyway, have a watch and let me know what you think… #olliemoto

🚨 Announcement! 🚨 Soooo, I’m off on another adventure! Recognise this place? Hope so - I’ve rattled on about it for long enough… šŸ˜‚

Yeah that’s right, I’m heading back tošŸ‡³šŸ‡µNepalšŸ‡³šŸ‡µbaby! I would have mentioned this sooner but with all this PCR rubbish I didn’t want to risk a false announcement. This trip will involve a lot of medicine and should be an interesting one to follow - it’s a new experience for me, and I’m very bloody excited.

Exactly what am I up to? All I’ll say for now is that I’m going to be on a mission with the Team 5 Foundation. I’ll reveal all when I get there, but if you want to get ahead of the game go and check them out!
