You may already be familiar with the Baron, but still worth a looksie.

At what point did green-laning on a Gixxer thou seem like a good idea I wonder? If they were the ideal dirt bike the byways would be full of them and none of us would buy KTMs, WRs and the like in addition to our sports bikes. That lane would be an absolute breeze on the proper bike for it, ha ha, pillock!

The Baron always makes me smile too!

I suspect he did it for the hell of it. If no one did anything off the wall everyone would be boringly the same. No one would go round the world on a Honda cub, they would use a plane.

The Baron is brilliant!

So sad to hear he's having a baby and may be giving up.

That's the thing, idea comes into his head and he does it despite what anyone may think - give him some credit for that in this day and age ;)

Give him some credit for not considering the consequences, like several hundred pounds of damage to the bike? The Darwin Award nominations consist entirely of people who didn't pause to consider the outcome of what they were about to do... Sure, it was amusing, but it was dumb

I think if money was an issue or the consequence of potentially a high repair he wouldn't have considered it.

I love the barons videos, I think he did it for a laugh see what happens he has about 3 other bikes anyway so I doubt the cost of repairs meant too much to him

Another fan of the Baron here!

Wheelie School looks great fun - will have to give it a go when I've passed my test.
