A motovlog is a type of video log recorded by a person while riding a motorcycle. The word is a neologism and portmanteau derived from "motorcycle", "video" and "log".

A person who creates motovlogs is known as a motovlogger,[1][2] and the action of making motovlogs is called motovlogging.[2][3] Most motovloggers upload their videos on YouTube, and the network of motovloggers here is known as the motovlog community.[citation needed]

On YouTube

There are many channels on YouTube dedicated to motovlogging.

Many motovloggers don't show their face or the license plate of their motorcycle in videos. The British motovlogger BaronVonGrumble says in an interview that anonymity exists to make the videos more mysterious and exciting to watch.[4]
