    Boothy has had miserable luck since he joined the channel with much breakage of both bones and bikes. But he’s seems such a top bloke I wish him nothing but good luck for the future. Keep your chin up mate.

      That's either karma or hes got some seriously bad mojo. 2 break downs and the car?
      But that's why I always say: although I love them I don't think I'd ever buy a KTM. Just makes no sense. Imagine if you were out in the desert and no help? You'd be seriously fucked without a SPOT device or something.

    The quality of your content has gone through the roof lads. 44 Teeth has gone from enjoyable to addictive. This installment is great, I initially thought you were taking the piss with the Dakar thing. But no, real deal. Boothy's onboard commentary is priceless, whatever he rides. Bloody sad, though. Had to do a face palm seeing a broken Land Rover trying to recover a broken KTM.
    Well done, you're obviously working your arses off. Thank you.
