Hello boys and girls, 

If you are traveling to some far off location, and you may say to yourself “I really would like to ride a bike while I’m there”. So you have a few options, but usually the only option is to rent one brand or two of bike. But suppose you want to try something completely different. Well, my guest today is the guy you want to deal with. So if you’re traveling to anywhere in the united states, and you want a bike to rent when you get to your destination, you’ll want to get ahold of Twisted Road. Joining me here in the V-Twin café is Austin Rothbard to tell us all about it.

Hey, now is your chance to get your Motorcycle Men shirt!! Yes, that's right, you can now get yourself a Motorcycle Men short sleeve T, Long Sleeve Tee, Sweatshirt, Hoodie or Polo shirt. The fine folks at Great Plains Apparel were kind enough to put together this wonderful package for us and shirts are waiting for you!!

Hello Boys and Girls, 

Sometimes when you travel you just can’t take your motorcycle either because you’re traveling with family or you’re on a business trip and there’s no down time to enjoy two wheels. Or maybe you decide to take a trip to a destination far enough away that you just don’t have the time to ride to the destination, so you fly there, rent a car and see it all from the comfort and confines of a little container to view the world as you drive on by. But there is another option and my guest is here today to tell us all about it. Erik Seversen of Eagle Rider joins me in the V-Twin Cafe for a chat about the services they offer.

Hello boys and girls!!

Time for another interview........

As you know, each year I attend the Progressive international motorcycle show at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City. I go not to hang around the Harley Davidson floor as you may think, but I go to introduce myself to the many other motorcycle companies there as well as the hundreds of other motorcycle related products and services that make themselves present at each of these events. For me it is a learning experience and one I look forward to each year. With regard to learning, my guest today is going to tell us about what attendees can expect at this years shows around the country, especially for those new to motorcycling and those who want to learn to ride. Lauren Lloyd joins me in the V-Twin Cafe for some coffee and a chat about the IMS.

Another interview episode and this one will be of special interest to our women riders out there!

The Women's Coalition of Motorcyclists is an organization aimed at the growth of women in motorcycling and the industry as a whole. As stated on their website....Promoting dynamic role models and wider riding opportunities will serve as catalysts to draw more women into all aspects of motorcycling. The WCM will establish motorcycle industry partnerships to build a scholarship fund. The fund will support aspiring female rider coaches and instructors, as well as promising female competitors in all disciplines: on-road, off-road, and on the track.

Joining me in the V-Twin is DP, the Chairwoman and Tai Day, ViceChair of the WMC to talk about the organization and the future of women in motorcycling.
