    From Raves to RiderShield: Bryan Beeson’s Mission to Protect Riders | Ep. 167

    Send us Fan Mail Bryan Beeson has built businesses at the intersection of automotive technology, insurance, connected safety, and motorcycles giving him a perspective few entrepreneurs in the industry possess. In this episode of the One Gang Worldwide Podcast, Bryan joins me to take us through his unlikely journey from promoting raves in Texas and helping build an early online dealership inventory platform to spending 16 years in the insurance industry, where he saw how automation, data, and technology could transform the way risk is understood. Bryan explains why he and his wife purchased Discount Moto Gear and transformed it into DMG Motorsports, what it takes to compete against companies such as RevZilla and Amazon, and why they expanded into selling restored sportbikes from the late 1980s and 1990s. Those experiences ultimately came together in RiderShield, the connected motorcycle-safety platform Bryan is now building. He breaks down the vision for crash detection, emergency alerts, theft tracking, and rider intelligence while confronting the difficult questions surrounding privacy, data ownership, and whether this technology could eventually change the way motorcycle insurance works.

    Can One Man Build Italy’s Next Great Electric Motorcycle? | Timoteo Maffei | Ep. 166

    Send us Fan Mail Italian engineer and entrepreneur Timoteo Maffei joins the One Gang Worldwide Podcast to share the incredible story behind EGERA, an electric motorcycle that started as a garage project during 2020 and has evolved into a serious attempt to build a production motorcycle in Italy. Timoteo's journey into motorcycles started long before EGERA. From working on Harley-Davidsons in Switzerland to founding MavTech, contributing to Moto2 development, and applying experience from the automotive and medical-device industries, his career has given him a very different approach to motorcycle design and engineering. In this episode, Timoteo takes us inside the development of EGERA from the early prototypes and thousands of kilometers of real-world testing to designing and manufacturing components, solving engineering problems, and trying to turn an idea built in a garage into a motorcycle people can actually buy. We also get into the realities of electric motorcycles, performance, range, battery technology, charging, weight, and the challenges smaller manufacturers face when competing against established global brands. This isn't just a conversation about whether electric motorcycles will replace gasoline motorcycles. It's about what happens when an engineer, a lifelong motorcycle enthusiast, and an entrepreneur decides he wants to build something different and then actually tries to make it happen.

    Why Electric Motorcycles Are Just Getting Started | Paul Roberts | Ep. 165

    Send us Fan Mail After importing electric motorcycles from China and later moving into motorcycle media, Paul Roberts has experienced the EV industry from two very different sides. In this episode of the One Gang Worldwide Podcast, Paul joins me to take us through his journey, the opportunities he pursued, the challenges he encountered, and the lessons that ultimately changed the direction of his career. From there, we explore where the electric-motorcycle industry is getting things right and badly wrong. We discuss adoption across the UK and Europe, along with the industry’s biggest challenges: price, range, charging infrastructure, and consumer trust. Paul also shares his perspective on LiveWire, Sur-Ron, struggling startups, and what riders should investigate before putting money down on an unfamiliar brand. He explains why the sub-$10,000 market could matter far more to widespread adoption than another expensive flagship EV and where he sees charging and battery technology heading next.

    Inside The Litas: Motorcycles, Healing & 26,000 Women Riders | Kim Okabe | Ep. 164

    Send us Fan Mail For Kim Okabe, motorcycles became much more than a passion. They became a way to work through one of the most difficult periods of her life. After getting her motorcycle license with encouragement from her mother, Kim unexpectedly lost her shortly afterward. In her first year of riding, Kim put roughly 56,000 kilometers on two wheels. Those miles gave her somewhere to process the grief, forced her to stay present, and eventually introduced her to a motorcycle community that would change the direction of her life. Today, Kim is the Managing Director of The Litas, a global community of more than 26,000 women riders across 350+ branches worldwide. In this episode of the One Gang Worldwide Podcast, Kim shares her personal journey into motorcycling, how she discovered The Litas, and what it takes to help build and protect a worldwide community without ego, judgment, politics, or toxicity. We also talk about women in motorcycling, creating welcoming spaces for new riders, the connection between motorcycles and mental wellness, and why sometimes the road gives us exactly what we didn't know we needed.

    Inside BMW Motorrad & Harley-Davidson Around the World | Dimitris Raptis | Ep. 163

    Send us Fan Mail Dimitris Raptis has spent nearly two decades helping lead two of the most iconic motorcycle brands in the world across some of the industry's most complex international markets. After beginning his career in Greece with Kawasaki, Dimitris joined BMW Motorrad, eventually moving to BMW headquarters in Munich and taking on leadership responsibilities across the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, Russia, and beyond. After 15 years with BMW, he joined Harley-Davidson, ultimately serving as Vice President of Asia Pacific and overseeing markets including Japan, China, India, Australia, Korea, and Southeast Asia. In this episode of the One Gang Worldwide Podcast, Dimitris takes us inside a side of the motorcycle industry most people rarely get to see. We talk about the differences between BMW and Harley-Davidson, how motorcycle culture changes from country to country, why a strategy that succeeds in one market can completely fail in another, and how dealer and distributor networks operate around the world. We also dig into the explosive importance of India and China, the rise of Asian motorcycle manufacturers, what separates great dealerships from average ones, and where Dimitris believes the biggest opportunities for the global motorcycle industry may be heading next. Few people have experienced the motorcycle business from this many countries, cultures, and perspectives. This conversation gives us a fascinating look at just how different and surprisingly similar the motorcycle world can be depending on where you ride.

    The Used Motorcycle King of Florida | Jeremy Coon | Ep. 162

    Send us Fan Mail Jeremy Coon has spent most of his life around motorcycle dealerships. He started behind a Harley-Davidson parts counter at 16, worked his way into sales and management and then got fired at 23. That firing ended up pushing him toward something much bigger. In 2007, Jeremy opened Lucky U Cycles in Wildwood, Florida. He shares what those early days really looked like: getting turned down for his first lease, tracking down used motorcycles wherever he could find them, answering every phone call himself, taking risks, making expensive mistakes, and figuring out how to survive as a young business owner. Nearly 20 years later, Lucky U Cycles has grown into a high-volume powersports dealership with locations in Wildwood and Fort Myers. Jeremy joins the One Gang Worldwide Podcast to talk about the wins, the setbacks, the lessons that cost him money, the recent expansion into Fort Myers, and what it really takes to build and grow an independent motorcycle dealership.

    Daniel Lanuza: From the Couch to Racing on the World Stage | Ep. 160

    Send us Fan Mail After growing up playing traditional sports, Daniel Lanuza discovered motorcycles at 17 and started racing at 19. What followed was a rapid climb from complete beginner to AFM champion and then a breakout professional debut at Laguna Seca, where he stunned the MotoAmerica paddock with a provisional pole and a podium finish during his first-ever professional race weekend. In this episode of One Gang Worldwide, Daniel takes us inside that unforgettable weekend and the journey that followed. He talks about leaving the United States to race in Europe, the financial realities of chasing a professional racing career, becoming his own mechanic, adapting to an entirely different racing culture, and the sacrifices that happen far away from the cameras and podiums. But at the heart of Daniel's story is something bigger than racing: betting on yourself when there are no guarantees. From discovering motorcycles as a teenager to chasing a World Championship dream overseas, Daniel is doing it his way and proudly representing America every time he lines up on the grid.
