We are working madly on the new DVD series, and we need a little help from you!
We're currently struggling
with titles and subtitles.
One of the problems is making sure any "slang" words translate in all the major English speaking areas - as we have learned, sometimes to our embarrassment, what's perfectly ok in one country is NOT in others! So if something "doesn't translate" for you please say so! Note that short phrases are better than long for a title.
We're happy with the title for the overall series (though we're always open to brilliant ideas!):
"The Motorcycle Adventure Travel Guide"
MAT Guide for short!
DVD One is all about getting inspired, planning routes, where to go, paperwork, what courses to take etc.
Title: "The Motorcycle Adventure Travel Guide"
Working subtitle:
"Inspiration and preparation"
Other choices so far for Subtitle:
"Getting ready"

DVD Two is all about choosing the bike, its equipment - panniers, modifications etc, and your own clothing and riding gear.
Title: "The Motorcycle Adventure Travel Guide"
Working subtitle: The bike and kit
Better choices so far for Subtitle:
"Preparing you and your bike"
"Outfitting you and your bike"
"What to take and how to pack it"
"Getting outfitted"
"Bike and gear"
"Bike and equipment"
"Gear up!"
"The kit"
"Essential gear"
"Essential kit"

DVD Three is about what happens when you hit the road - what's it like, how do you deal with border crossings and corrupt officials, medical emergencies on the road, shipping the bike, and much more.
Title: "The Motorcycle Adventure Travel Guide"
Working subtitle: "Life on the road"
Other choices so far for Subtitle:
??
By the time you've seen the three, you will know about everything you need to know to ride around the world.
DVD Four is all of the above from the Woman's point of view.
Title: "The Motorcycle Adventure Travel Guide"
Working subtitle: Women's DVD!
Other choices so far for Subtitle:
"Birds-eye view"
"Women on the road"
"Motorcycle Adventure Travel for Women"
"Ladies on the Loose"

If we use your suggestion, we'll give you a free DVD.
Thanks for your ideas!
