Episode 217 - Interview with Miranda Young, Ghost Biker 

Hello boys and girls!!

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

I'm sure you've seen those paranormal shows on TV. They raise your curiosity, heighten your senses, expand your awareness and maybe even have you looking over your shoulder. But none of those people ride motorcycles, so how can we possibly believe anything they say? However my guest today explores the unknown, the unexplained, the paranormal all from the seat of her Harley Davidson. My guest on this crisp Autumn evening in the season of ghouls, goblins, witches and warlocks is Miranda Young.... The Ghost Biker.

Episode 212 - Interview with Redbeard the Kilted Rider 

Hello Boys and Girls, 

And welcome to another wonderful interview episode!!!  

You all know by now that I love the Harley Davidson Sportster. I’m a huge fan. What you may also know is that I love when I hear a story of somebody doing something with a Sportster that most people would never do or is completely the most inappropriate bike for the job. Well, my guest tonight has been doing just that and I had to have him on. Drew Clayton, a.k.a. Redbeard the Kilted Rider joins me to tell us about his trip to the Arctic Circle on his Sportster!!
