Richard Hammond's motorcycle confession: "I'm bikes before cars".

Richard Hammond may be best known for driving some of the world's fastest and most exotic cars on Top Gear and The Grand Tour, but when he appeared live on stage at the ABR Festival, he made a confession that put a smile on the face of every biker watching. "Truth be told, I'm bikes before cars." Yes, one of the world's most famous car guys has a passion for motorcycles that runs even deeper than his love of anything on four wheels. And, as we discovered during our conversation, Richard Hammond isn't just someone who enjoys the occasional Sunday ride. He's a lifelong biker with a genuine passion for exploring the world on two wheels. Speaking to me in front of thousands of motorcycle enthusiasts, Richard talked candidly about the bike that started his love affair with motorcycling, his adventures around the world, and an unforgettable journey with his brother to ride the highest road on Earth. He also revealed how a spot of outdoor ironing turned him into an unwitting tourist attraction. Throughout our conversation, the Top Gear and Grand Tour presenter was funny, self-deprecating, and refreshingly honest about what riding motorcycles means to him. And it was clear he felt right at home surrounded by people who shared his passion for bikes and adventure. It was a hugely entertaining conversation with a man who clearly knows his motorcycles and loves riding them. So make a brew, settle into a comfy chair, and enjoy the full conversation as Richard Hammond reveals the stories behind his motorcycle adventures, his favourite riding experiences, and why two wheels will always come before four.
