I think Guy Martin is the boy, he’s a absolute mad man who loves to throw himself down hills and along public roads as fast as possible both on cycles and motor bikes. He’s a straight talking Lincolnshire lad who has a passion for understanding how things work. If you haven’t already seen the documentary Closer to the Edge then run out the door and grab a copy now, you shall not be disappointed in the slightest!

Guy has always been into knowing how things work, like many of us he likes to maintain and tweak his own bikes but doesn’t always know where or how the bikes were made. Guy wanted to find out a little more about where his downhill bike was made so he headed up North to Halifax to drop in on the guys at Orange Bikes to watch the whole process from sheets of aluminium through to complete production happen. If you like watching behind the scenes documentaries or just want to have a gander at some heavy machinery and welding then this video is for you.

PS its the video is over a year old but that doesn’t make it less interesting or relevant.. get it watched with a cuppa tea and a custard cream!!
