My mission is simple. I want to help grow the sport of motorcycling, and help expand the motorcycle industry, by helping new people find motorcycling, by helping new riders succeed, by helping returning riders overcome any barriers that caused them to quit, and finally by helping all riders, of all experience levels, continue developing their knowledge, skills and abilities so that they get everything they can out of motorcycling, and enjoy a lifetime of safe and fulfilling motorcycling adventures...which who knows...might even include track days and amateur or professional motorcycle racing!

Episode 064: Greg White...Riding & Racing
This episode is a great chat with Greg White. If you are already familiar with Greg, you will probably know him as a part of the announcing team for MotoAmerica and as the host of the Greg’s Garage Podcast with co-host Jason Pridmore. And if you follow him on social media you have heard of his Greg’s Ride 2 the Races. There’s also lots of other cool stuff that he does now and has done in the past that we cover. I've been wanting to interview Greg for quite a while since I am a big fan of his podcast and also see him often on TV and Live+ doing commentating and play by play analysis the MotoAmerica road racing series. When I saw his annoucement for Greg’s Ride 2 the Races it was the kick in the ass I needed, since I realized...what is cooler than talking about riding motorcycles to go see motorcycle racing?
We talk about how Greg’s Ride 2 the Races got started, how Greg got into motorcycles and racing, how he transitioned from racing to motorcycle racing TV production and announcing and lots of other stuff...the Kyle Wyman Panera Superbike reveal, his lap around VIR on the Ducati Multistrada V4S, the MotoAmerica Mission King of the Baggers Class, how motorcycle road racing is all about the tires, and much more!

Episode 062: Team Get Together for the Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge (MPC) Week #2
The podcast MPC team members got together using Zoom and we talked all things Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge (MPC) related. Oh...and we also talked a little about the Loud Pipes! and Throttled podcasts coming to a close, navigation devices, tools and apps, touch sensitive gloves and add-ons, cruise control, being your own "back seat driver", front suspension including the BMW Telelever, and finally the team gives me their ideas on the podcast and what directions I should take the podcast next.

Episode 061: Team Get Together for the Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge (MPC) Week #1
Since I have not released a podcast episode in quite a while, AND since we have our own podcast team for the Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge (MPC) this year, I thought it would be cool to do a podcast episode for each week of the MPC.
The podcast team members got together using Zoom and we introduced ourselves to the listeners, talked about the MPC, what we like and don't like about it, the cool places we have visited so far, what are objectives are for the challenge, we answered questions, pondered if there are any "gentlemen's rules" for the competition and encourage other riders to join in on the fun next year...assuming the MPC keeps going for at least another year...and who knows, maybe these podcast episodes will help make that a reality!
We also touch on some other topics like "there's no crying in motorcycles" and that maybe the MPC Flash Challenges should involve doing wheelies and stoppies. :-)
Oh...and we talk a little about the Harley Davidson Pan America.
And we have some adult beverages in honor of the Loud Pipes podcast, which recently published its final episode.

Episode 060: Scott Rybarik - Rider, Writer, Racer & Instructor
This episode is a great discussion with Scott Rybarik. Scott works to support the expansion of the sport of motorcycling in more ways than I can count...including as a guest instructor for the Yamaha Champions Riding School. As Scott says in his bio, "the motorcycling community has become an extension of my family, and I want to help others become better, safer and faster riders." Scott and I talk about lots of topics related to motorcycles and motorcycling, including community, running clubs, managing risk and performance, how people learn new skills, taking kids racing, the lessons of motorcycling that relate to other parts of life, modern motorcycle electronics and tires and are they too good, and much, much more.

Episode 059: The "Shiny Side Up" with Andrew Goodman
This episode is an awesome chat with motorcyclist Andrew Goodman about his new book "Shiny Side Up - From First Ride to Fast Rider." Andrew started riding motorcycles in his early twenties. Finding a more effective way to commute through rush hour London traffic was the excuse, but in learning to ride he fulfilled a lifelong goal. He hit the ground running and got hold of anything and everything he could find to help him understand his strange and beguiling new hobby, and a more experienced mentor to show him the ropes. Ever since he can remember, Andrew has been fascinated with how things work. He eventually became a chartered mechanical engineer and has applied his knowledge of engineering and physics to his riding progression; whether servicing bikes, commuting, or track riding. So, join us as Andrew and I talk about all things motorcycle!
