Discovery Channel’s Man V Expert isn’t a programme we normally watch but when it featured our very own enduro ace Paul Bolton, we thought it was certainly worth a look.
For those not in the know – and neither were we – Man V Expert’, finds out if it’s ever possible to shortcut your way to the top.
Each week, hustler/presenter Alexis Conran takes on three intense challenges against world class experts, to see if he can find a way to beat them at their own game, without going through years of hard work and training.
When he decided to challenge British Motocross Champion Mattiss Karro to a race we split out sides laughing. Considering he could barley change gear, we figured he’d got no chance.
Then we remembered this was made for TV – he had a trick up his sleeve and a major one at that!
Without spoiling the plot, he does manage to out hustle Karro – albeit with a little help Bolts.
