This week on our motorcycle podcast Liza returns from her trip across country, and shares some of her stories. If the goal of this ride was to push everyone's limits as riders, then it was a success. We also talk about the latest rumors about the Long Way Up production and if this might be the straw that breaks Harley's back. In fact, how much might it hurt or help the electric motorcycle industry? We throw out our speculations and suggest keeping an eye as more news come out. Lastly, we finish with emails, and Bagel is tested with possible the hardest accent to replicate: that of a Finnish woman in Minnesota. With Naked Jim, Nak, Liza, Bagel, Emma, Rose, Isaac, Morgan and Raymond.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we have the usual unruly bunch, with a few extras thrown in for good measure. We were lucky to have land speed record holders Erin Sills and Trev Richter of Hunter Sills Racing in the studio. Hunter Sills Racing captured five records with its BMW S 1000 RR at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Wendover, Utah, during the Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials event held Aug. 24–29, 2019. The team also earned Top Time of the Meet and Fastest Naturally Aspirated Motorcycle and increased the speed of their world’s fastest BMW motorcycle to 238.398 mph. They also share stories from some of their other records, including fastest 2 up speed, and fastest BMW GS. And not only do they like to go fast, but they are also both dirt riding instructors at RawHyde Adventures. So enjoy this interview as we go into the mind of these two amazing world record riders. http://huntersillsracing.com/ We were also joined by a special guest, Sylvain, who is in middle of his world moto trip.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we share the story of a young man with no hope. He had been told that his Harley was done for, and he was completely heartbroken. But alas, in a last ditch effort of hope, he brought his bike to the Re-Cycle Garage to meet the wizard herself, Miss Emma. She looked the bike up and down, spun her magic wand and muttered the secret phrase "Potato-potato-potato". And voila! Suddenly the bike was running perfect. All traces of it's engine problems were gone. The boy rode off into the sunset and all was good again in the land of merry Misfits. And also we talk about buying a used electric bike, who got a new bike, and who's getting a new old bike. We read some emails and have fun with our guests from Canada. With Liza, Electric Terry, Nak, Bagel, Naked Jim, Miss Emma, Angela, John and Raymond.
