    If it's outside, then Aldo has probably done it! Following ten years as a sniper in the Royal Marine Commando's Aldo turned his hand to expedition support for television productions. From taking Will Smith into an active Volcano to running safety in South America for Foxy on his Narcos series, there are not many tight spots Aldo hasn't been in. We caught up with Aldo at BMW Motorad UK HQ for a ride on some brand new models and a great chat.
