[@kp4918]

You're already popping back up on my feed! So the algorithm is working for you. Excited for your new goals!

[@ChasingTenths]

@@kp4918 that’s really really good to know , because my biggest worry was after 5 months of not posting that the channel will be dead , totally dead and jump starting won’t help 😮‍💨

[@arfanhussain4471]

Well done Abhi! Loving the passion and commitment. Wish you all the best.

[@ChasingTenths]

@@arfanhussain4471 thanks Arfan, very kind of you mate. Cheers for the support

[@Baz1000r]

Absolutely great news for you. Good luck. You kept the MCN job application a secret.

[@ChasingTenths]

@@Baz1000r thanks Baz, I did make a video on it briefly but that was part of a long Q&A video early last year. I don’t shout out about it too much though lol

[@snikwadRR]

Well hot diggity damn. Mans making big moves brev. Big man ting yeah. Dude that's dope. Excited for you brev.

[@88Nash]

Hi Abhi, it was really great to meet you and chat to you and your mate today. I hope you enjoyed the show. Thanks for the photo. Keep up the good work. I always enjoy your content. It's honest, shows the best and worst sides of our sport, but I like the way to try to feature everything going on not just your laps. Hopefully get to ride with you one day. Stay safe 👍

[@ChasingTenths]

@@88Nash I was absolutely over the moon to meet you and definitely loved the chasing tenths hoodie on you.. I posted our picture on my personal social media and everybody loved it including my mum.. it was very heartwarming and I’m so glad I have such a concrete support from people like you.. all the best and keep in touch via Instagram or chasing tenths Facebook page

Great to have you back! All the best on you're new endeavour, lifes to short not to persue you're passion!

[@ChasingTenths]

@@CMRacing91 thank you so much , lovely words and yes I totally agree with you

[@markpearce5793]

Great to see you're back on YT. Your channel always seemed different to most others, particularly with the quality of footage, explanations of each track day/race session you did and I found the product reviews were very interesting. I was never very fond of the race reports where you weren't taking part, but I'm sure they appeal to others. I'm glad you've found a way of moving forward; I know you really wanted the MCN position and would have done an excellent job there. Looking forward to seeing what you get up to with this fresh start, and impressed you're doing the Masters along with the full time job.

[@ChasingTenths]

@@markpearce5793 thank you very much, Mark.. this is a very, very nice comment and some great feedback. I totally agree with the race vlogs where I was basically doing areporter job, Those videos were mainly for the club racing community …. However they never did well and you have a very good point, because they seemed more like a summary than an actual race video .. I was gutted about the Mcn role because I thought I could have done that job with ease… and I will be doing more of the stuff I used to do in 2019 and 2020 which were my tech videos and deciphering complicated upgrades into simple words for the general public.. I guess I need to do more of what people want to see and educational stuff and not very very long videos which are either only about me or a particular race-team, as that can get a little bit boring and hence gets less traction … Thanks again , I really appreciate your support

[@markpearce5793]

@@ChasingTenths hi Abhi, thanks for your reply. I will just clarify about the race meet videos. There’s nothing intrinsically wrong with them; well produced and edited, but because they’re about people I don’t know anything of, it’s not interesting to me. I guess a few others felt the same if the view numbers were different. Perhaps you can start a second channel to show them as they might appeal to a slightly different audience than your current channel. Depends if you can find enough time 😁

[@jh91160]

Great to see you posting again! Best of luck with your degree.

[@ChasingTenths]

Thank you very very much , and I appreciate you commenting

[@MarinaraTrackDays]

That's amazing that classes like that exist. That makes me happy to know they're out there!

[@ChasingTenths]

@@MarinaraTrackDays yes, it’s a rare thing but in terms of editorial writing and proper media education in automotive journalism, this masters degree is perfect

[@GiacintoMarcellino]

You are a class act. An example to follow.

[@ChasingTenths]

@@GiacintoMarcellino thank you very very much That’s a huge huge compliment

Fair play to you! Are you making the most of your student discount 😊 Welcome back 👍🏼

[@ChasingTenths]

@@Mancs1000r hahaha, cheers.. actually I got to know about a website last week which gives loads of student discount, so I will try that .. but definitely my gym now is on student discount and Adobe premier pro is now on student discount lol

[@bendavies6775]

Their loss. Your blend of enthusiasm, competence, authenticity and crucially lack of commercial conflicts of interest is much appreciated. You would appeal to the younger generation of motorcyclists who are the future of our hobby/sport and often less tolerant of blatant and not so blatant bias that other youtubers/influencers/journalists serve up.

[@ChasingTenths]

@@bendavies6775 thank you so much , whst a beautifully worded comment , the plan has always been to keep quality over quantity and give out meaningful information… I have never cared about KZbin algorithms in terms of pushing two to three videos out per week as that can lead to pushing content out without context and then it gets lame and monotonous… onwards and upwards now 🤗

[@mach3463]

This is really inspiring, following your passion.. this channel is criminally underrated, all the best to you Abi 🤞

[@ChasingTenths]

Thank you mate very much , that’s some great encouragement

[@TommyFielding]

Fair play mate! I haven’t got the drive / time to do my masters. Life,racing,family all get in the way, maybe when I stop racing eh 😅 The room your filming in looks like the room of a banker,very nice! Looking forward to the JAS videos, will be interesting to follow. 👍

@@leeandrews3056 thanks Lee, yes plan is to get back on track next year but probably not racing as I have this masters degree plus my full time job to manage at the same time , but the content this winter will be a mix bag of things , starting with endurance racing videos and then some videos on Dunlop tires and retro bikes and trackdays plus upgrades , loads

[@ajs3046]

Welcome back mate. Smart move doing the course, so expensive, but it will show to future employers how committed you are to changing into this profession. But...is there really a future in print? The YT channel will reach much more like minded losers like us i think. Your enthusiasm for your topic is what counts. Waffling makes people turn off, but your video editing is excellent and your knowledge is evident. All i would recommend is possibly trying to get test bikes from dealers? Borrow your mates' bikes and do a mini review? Try and release a 15 min video a week to maintain the following? Visit local workshops and manufacturers? Even all that would count toward your resume for future jobs surely? Waffle over

[@ChasingTenths]

@@ajs3046 that’s a very very wonderful and constructive comment. Print is definitely on decline, but print in electronic format has more subscribers for magazine . For example before they could only sell magazines country wide , now with subscription fees, they can electronically sell magazines world wide , there is an audience who reads and written reviews are definitely more detailed, some like that … in terms of all the points you have mentioned , I am going to adopt every single one of them, makes perfect sense that … Huge appreciation to you for recommending those things They all make absolute sense

[@ajs3046]

@ChasingTenths what about buying a wreck that you document restoring? Both in KZbin and written. You could sell it to Motorcycle Mechanics or the like. Ticks the journalism box and gets you some exposure for the channel. Just make it something cool and not a goldwing or a diversion 🤣

[@ChasingTenths]

@ me and my mate nearly did one last winter but it just didn’t happen due to him living 2 hours away , plus I Am not hands on at all… but never say never , we might do one early next year , let’s see. Great point though
