Podcast 407: The Perfect Date

This week on our motorcycle podcast we are joined by Guillermo from Riders-Share.com, a peer to peer motorcycle rental site. This year has been incredibly hard for his industry, but he's been holding on and making big plans for improvements to the business. But first we get a report from Jim who rode up to into the fire zone here in the Santa Cruz mountains. It's creepy, and the orange sky we had earlier in the week has us convinced that we are living in the apocalypse. And Emma fills us in on her latest (and according to her, greatest) motorcycle build she's ever done. With Liza, Naked Jim, Miss Emma, Bagel and Award Winning Mike. https://www.riders-share.com motorcyclesandmisfits.wordpress.com/ www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits recyclemotorcyclegarage@gmail.com

This week on our motorcycle podcast we talk about the new Chinese made Harley 338, Will it be coming to America, and is it the bike that could save Harley Davidson? Next up we talk with stuntwoman Debbie Evans. She's a 7 time Taurus World Stunt Award winner, she's in the AMA Hall of Fame and the Hollywood Stunt Hall of Fame. She's got almost 400 movie and TV credits to her name, and was also one of the best trials riders in the world. But for us her most notable job has been that of Trinity on the Ducati in Matrix Revolutions which I believe to be the best motorcycle stunt in the movies ever done. Debbie tells us about her dad that got her into riding when she was six, some of the highs and lows of her career, and her whole family that shares in her love of motorcycles and stunts. https://www.debbieevans.com/ With Liza, Naked Jim, Nak, Bagel and Miss Emma. https://motorcyclesandmisfits.wordpress.com/ www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits recyclemotorcyclegarage@gmail.com

This week on our motorcycle podcast we rise from the ashes (literally)and fill you in on what's been going on with all the fires here in California. Jim Eckerman calls in from behind the fire line to tell us what it's been like living in the fire zone, patrolling the neighborhood on his KTM, and putting out spot fires before they get out of hand. And since we were all faced with possible evacuation, we talk about the process of choosing what to save, that we all had to go through. Next up Liza, Charley and Naked Jim share their story of an epic ADV trip, almost succumbing to both hypothermia and heat stroke, and overcoming obstacles as a team. Then we hear from Emma, who shares some of her personal history with motorcycles, including many of her 'firsts". And lastly we finish with listener emails. Stay safe everyone!
