Motorcycles & Misfits Re-Cycle Garage in Santa Cruz

Is this the golden age of motorcycles?
Is there a difference between a rider and a biker?
Is the Honda Elite 250 the best scooter ever made?
Is the Suzuki RF900R the best looking sport bike of all time?
Does a Harley sound like potato potato, or is it tomato tomato?
We answer all of these questions and get into debates on some, and we want to hear what you think as well.
With Liza, Stumpy John, Miss Emma, Craig the Giant, Nak and Bagel.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we are talking about cooking food. With our bikes. No, really. Our moto is Live to Ride, Ride to Eat, so what better way to do this than to cook the food while you ride. We've come up with a list of bikes and dishes that we think are good matches. are you willing to try any?
Next up we are joined by champion racer Bubba Shobert. He's a three-time A.M.A. Grand National Champion from 1985 to 1987 and was AMA Superbike Champion in 1988 while riding for American Honda. In 1989 Shobert moved up to the Grand Prix world championship riding for Honda. Unfortunately, Shobert's Grand Prix career was cut short at the third race of the season, where he was involved in a terrible crash with Kevin Magee on the cool off lap after the race, wherein Shobert drove into the back of Magee's motorcycle. Magee had stopped his motorcycle in the middle of the track and was performing a rear-wheel "burnout". Eddie Lawson narrowly missed hitting Magee's bike after he and Shobert had just finished congratulating each other moments earlier and were not looking forward. Shobert suffered severe head injuries but was able to make a full recovery after months of rehabilitation. He never raced again, taking instead roles as manager in some teams of AMA Grand National dirt track .

This week on our motorcycle podcast we are joined by Tom Medema, co-founder of the Rally for Rangers, which is the definition of philanthropic adventure. So what is it exactly? Rally for Rangers connects motorcycle enthusiasts passionate about discovering and protecting the world's special places with park rangers dedicated to natural and cultural heritage. After completing an adventure ride in an amazing remote place of the world, the riders donate their bikes directly to rangers who use them to help protect animals and artifacts from poachers.
Tom's here to tell us about some new trips, a new movie, and a big announcement that might get you on one of these trips.
With Liza, Stumpy John, Tom, Craig, Naked Jim, Miss Emma and Bagel.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we are joined by Jenya, who's chained bike was stolen from her secure gated garage. With lots of perseverance and help from the community she finally got it back. She shares her story and lessons learned from this crime.
We are also joined by Phil Marmet from Abus, who makes some of the best locks for motorcycles on the market. But even these can't stop all thieves. He explains what the difference is between types of locks, as well as the different qualities available.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we descend on the AimExpo in Las Vegas, and we sought out some of the coolest things we could find there.
Emma talks to Jen and Chris, who are making some really cool base layers for women. https://justride5.com/
Jim talks to Charley from Forcite out of Australia, who are redefining the smart helmet category, and making it less complicated. https://www.forcitehelmets.com/en-us/
Craig found a great new website called Kickstands Up, where you can find every kind of motorcycle event going on near you. We love it and think you will too. https://www.kickstandsup.com/
Stumpy John learns more about Kove motorcycles out of China. They've already proven they are built well with three bikes that entered and finished the Dakar Rally. https://kovemoto.com/
And lastly, Emma swings by the Triumph booth and talks to Adam about what's new, when are the dirt bikes coming, and what else might we be seeing from Triumph soon. https://www.triumphmotorcycles.com/
Also, check out Adam's podcast https://www.triumphmotorcycles.com/for-the-ride/brand/podcast
What a great time we had, and nobody was arrested. That's a win in our books.
