Podcast 444: The Numb Nuts Challenge Idea

Liza and John are out of the country, so we decided to pull some of our favorite show out of the vaults, starting with Norman Reedus. This was a fun show to do, and we still get new listeners from Ride With Norman Reedus. Enjoy! www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits

This week on our show we have listeners Ed and Dave joining us from the middle of their cross country tour. They spent the weekend with the Misfits, riding through the redwoods and wrenching on bikes, and also had fun on the kiddie rides at the Santa Cruz Boardwalk. We introduce a new segment called Do We Care, where we introduce some recent motorcycle news, break it down, and decide if we care or not. Let us know what you care about. Next up Neil shares stories from his recent moto tour of Ireland, which started out wet and miserable, but quickly shaped up thanks to some fresh Guinness. With Liza, Ed, Stumpy John, Dave, Ray Ray, Neil, Douglas, Naked Jim and Bagel. www.vintagerides.travel www.adifferentagenda.com/ www.leodescapes.com/ Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew

This week on our podcast we are joined by the founder of Vintage Rides motorcycle tours, Alex Zurcher. He first started riding while seeking adventure in India, and fell in love not just with the Royal Enfield, but with exploring cultures found off the beaten path. He soon realized he wanted to share all of the authentic experiences he discovered, and Vintage Rides was born. 17 years later he offers this same style of moto adventure in 19 countries, and has become one of, if not the largest, motorcycle tour company. Wendy Crockett also joins us to share some more Vintage Rides experiences, and is available to answer any questions you might have. Jen and Matt from Utah share their Misfit for a weekend experience. From riding the Niken, wrenching at the garage, eating too many bakery treats, surviving the coastal fog and exploring a cave in a redwood tree, they had the full Santa Cruz experience.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we head down to the Quail Motorcycle Gathering, and everyone came away with damp knickers. Normally it would be from the amazing array of beautiful bikes, but this year it was the rain that got our undies wet. That still didn't stop us from having a good time and getting one good interview before the rain went sideways and everyone ran for cover. Fortunately the next day we were back to our usual sunny weather for the garage, and everyone was in better moods once the wrinkled genitalia returned to normal. Jim shares a story of a mission he was sent on from a listener, that turned into an amazing adventure and story. Then Emma shares a story of an unfortunate incident involving a poorly transported motorcycle on the back of a flatbed. This leads us to share our tip and tricks to safely securing your bike for transportation. With Liza, Stumpy John, Miss Emma, Neil, Naked Jim, Steph Yue and Bagel. www.vintagerides.travel breakingawayadventures.com/ www.adifferentagenda.com/ www.leodescapes.com/ Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew

This week on our motorcycle podcast we talk about our recent crashes, rashes and awards, and why it was all worth it. Another Tesla killed a biker while in self drive mode. Who's to blame? And how do we get this to stop? Let's discuss. We catch up on our backlog of listener emails (well, almost) so keep them coming. Let us know what adventures you have planned this year.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we share stories from our 2nd annual Motorcycles & Misfits/Breaking Away Adventures Rally. We had a great group of people attend, and supported dirt, adv and street riding out of our beautiful Hollister Hills SVRA campground. Games were played, drinks were shared, and skills were learned in this event that feels more like a family reunion than anything else. We were also fortunate to have Brok McAllister of California Supermoto Schools on hand for personalized instruction and dirt bike rental. With Liza, Ellie, Henry, Aaron, Ray Ray, Breaking Away Matt, Naked Jim and Bagel. https://supermotoschools.com/ www.vintagerides.travel https://breakingawayadventures.com/ www.adifferentagenda.com/ www.leodescapes.com/ Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew

This week on our motorcycle podcast Emma does a History Hole on police bikes. Did you know that Berkeley, CA was the first city with a fleet of police bikes in 1911? She shares many cool facts about these specialty bikes, including what makes them so special. This leads us in to a conversation about other working bikes, and what bikes would make a better police bike.
