Today we're talking with Brad Bailey, Equipment Manager at Four Seasons Golf and Sports Club in Orlando, Florida, an 18-hole course serving both resort guests and private members. Brad leads a team of three technicians and works primarily with John Deere equipment. With a background in chemistry and a hands-on upbringing working with his dad, Brad found his way into the turf industry during college and never looked back. He shares his expertise in small engines, his thoughts on the less glamorous office side of the job, and his experience managing a team in Florida's year-round golf climate. Trent and Brad dig into everything Stihl, explore his work with Husqvarna autonomous mowers, and chat about his favorite ways to unwind - fishing, Disney, and building with Lego.

In very good news, KTM has been saved! Indian powerhouse Bajaj has stepped up to save the company, but what does the future hold under their new ownership? Should they cut Husqvarna and Gas Gas? The X-Bow is unfortunately almost certainly dead, but we'll take some KTM over no KTM and that new 390 Adventure sure seems like a step in the right direction.

Wir tauchen mit euch wieder tief ins 125er-Archiv ab und heben für euch ein paar 125er-Schätze. Die kennt ihr garantiert nicht alle. Vom Bestseller bis zum Hardtail-Chopper ist da alles dabei. Und natürlich klären wir auch, wie die Preise damals waren und wie sie bei den sechs Bikes dieses Kuriositätenkabinetts heute sind. Starten wir gleich mit ein wenig Namedropping: Daelim, Honda, Husqvarna, Kawasaki, Megelli und WMI lauten die Namen der Hersteller, um die sich bei dieser Folge des 125er-Champs-Podcasts alles dreht. Genauer gesagt stehen Modelle dieser Marken im Fokus, die garantiert so keiner mehr auf dem Zettel hat. Schon bei der Recherche zu den sechs Modellen konnten wir uns an der einen oder anderen Stelle ein Schmunzeln wegen der technischen Lösungen nicht verkneifen. Da wäre beispielsweise ein 125er-Zweizylinder-Chopper mit Starrahmenheck. Also ohne Federung hinten. Den gab es wirklich mal serienmäßig zu kaufen. Genau wie die weiteren fünf Bikes, die wir in dieser Podcast-Folge ins Scheinwerferlicht rücken. Wir werfen mit euch einen Blick auf die Technik und auch auf die Preise. Was haben die sechs ungewöhnlichen 125er-Modelle während ihrer Bauzeit gekostet? Und was muss man aktuell für sie auf den Tisch legen, falls sie überhaupt noch auf den bekannten Online-Fahrzeugbörsen zu bekommen sind? Da ist wirklich alles dabei – von der kuriosen Supermoto, über 2-Takt-Drifter bis hin zu einem Welt-Bestseller!

In dieser Episode spricht Host Florian Vette mit Stephan Waldeis, Vice President Digital E-Commerce Europe und Prokurist bei Husqvarna – dem weltweit tätigen Hersteller von Garten- und Forstgeräten, bekannt für seine Mähroboter, Kettensägen und smarten Lösungen für die Grünflächenpflege. Ein Unternehmen, das wie kaum ein anderes zwischen schwedischer Tradition, technischer Innovation und digitalem Wandel navigiert. Im Gespräch geht es um die Frage: Was bedeutet es, E-Commerce und Fachhandel nicht als Gegensätze, sondern als Partner zu denken? Stephan erklärt, wie Husqvarna mit seiner Strategie „Connected Commerce“ den D2C-Kanal ausbaut – ohne dabei das Rückgrat der Marke, das globale Fachhandelsnetzwerk, zu verlieren. Wie funktioniert diese Integration konkret? Und welche Rolle spielen dabei Themen wie Installation, Services oder selektive Distribution? Ein Blick auf das Unternehmen: Wie bringt man ein internationales Sortiment mit zehntausenden Produkten unter Kontrolle? Welche Systeme braucht es für Content-Syndication, Marktplatz-Monitoring und Markenschutz – insbesondere auf Plattformen wie Amazon oder Temu? Und schließlich: Wie lassen sich Fachhandel und Plattformgeschäft vereinen? Welche Rolle spielt Technologie bei Produktverfolgung, Pricing und Partnersteuerung – und wo stößt selbst ein digital aufgestellter Hersteller an Grenzen? Zum Schluss verrät Stephan, warum die Zusammenarbeit mit engagierten Partnern heute wichtiger ist denn je – und wie Husqvarna damit nicht nur den Garten, sondern auch den digitalen Vertrieb auf das nächste Level hebt.

A full race recap from this weekends racing in Sainte Julie, QC where MX101 FXR Yamaha hit the nail squarely on the head and won all four motos with Jess Pettis and Preston Kilroy. The Honda Canada GDR Fox Racing team had struggles from each of their premier riders, setting up an epic do-or-die showdown at their home track at Gopher Dunes this upcoming weekend. Can't Wait!

De afgelopen weken testte presentator Bas van Werven de robotgrasmaaier 450X NERA van het Zweedse Husqvarna. De robotmaaier bleek wat 'overpowered' ten opzichte van het grasveld waar Bas 'm liet maaien, maar het gazon werd er niet minder mooi door. Toch heeft Bas wat kanttekeningen. In de achtertuin grazen de schapen op het veld van Bas, voor de rest van het gazon gebruikt hij meestal de zitmaaier: 'werkt therapeutisch'. Maar de nieuwe robotmaaier moet de boel automatiseren en zou het veld ook nog eens in kwaliteit onderhouden. De ervaring leert alleen dat de maaier vaker om hulp vraagt dan vooraf gedacht. Meerdere keren per week loopt de maaier vast in de rand van het gazon, misschien omdat Bas de grenzen wat te strak afgezet heeft. Bovendien moet je zelf ook nog wat doen, anders zal het gras nooit rand tot rand gemaaid worden. Hoewel de slimme robotmaaier een uitkomst is voor grote gazons en weinig tijd, lijkt het nu vooral een extra last mee te brengen. Bovendien had een kleiner model wellicht beter gewerkt, gelukkig zijn die opties er ook (voor minder geld). Benieuwd wat deze Husqvarna kostte en wat het eindoordeel was?

Dave Roper has been racing motorcycles for more than half a century. The New England native is probably best known for campaigning exotic vintage machinery under the Robert Iannucci-led Team Obsolete banner. He's fast, too. In fact, Roper won more than half of the races he entered on Iannucci's 1959 Matchless G50, including, famously, the 1984 Senior Historic TT at the Isle of Man.“We lived relatively close to Lime Rock Park in northwest Connecticut,” Roper tells “Driven to Ride” host Mark Long. “We used to go up there and watch the sports cars. That's what I thought I wanted to do.” Once he found motorcycling, however, Roper was immediately hooked. “Motorcycles are more accessible,” he explains. “They're cheaper, they're smaller, they're easier to work on.”Now in his 70s, Roper has been the subject of many editorial projects, including a documentary film, “Motorcycle Man.” “I don't feel like I'm all that special as a racer,” he says. “I've had some success. I've arranged my life so I can continue doing it; I'm not married, I don't have any children. I love the social aspect of it, traveling and seeing people who you share a very special thing with.” Connect with Us:Website: www.driventoridepodcast.comInstagram: www.Instagram.com/driventoridepodcastFacebook: www.facebook.com/driventorideEmail:hello@driventoridepodcast.com

Is KTM okay or not? A year of scary news about financials for the massive Austrian maker of KTM, Husqvarna and GasGas motorcycles continues, with rumors of a make it or break it payment looming this week. It appears KTM's business partner Bajaj might have gotten the loan needed to restart the KTM assembly lines and keep the company going.  Jason Weigandt gives the latest on that, then chats with Frank White of long-time American dirt bike manufacturer ATK. Yes, the ATK brand is still around, now as a parts supplier, and it has partnered with Harley-Davidson on projects before.  Frank White doesn't like what he sees over at H-D these days, with the company reporting a loss of over $200 million in the final quarter of 2024. White and others would like to see the CEO of Harley ousted, and a revamp of the type of products the company produces.  While a recent vote will keep the current CEO in place for at least this year, these are still times of stress at two of the biggest motorcycle companies in the world. The Racer X Exhaust podcast is presented by Yoshimura, Insta360 Cameras and OnTrack School.

From a teenage pizza-slinging street racer to a professional National Hot Rod Association-winning Pro Stock Motorcycle drag racer, Steve Johnson understands the value of humble beginnings. He also knows exactly how it feels to reach 200 mph in less than 7 seconds. “I always tell everybody it's like hanging on to a bullet after it's been shot out of a gun.”“First to 500” is Johnson's career calling card. “If you go to all the races in the year that the sanctioning body puts on,” he explains to host Mark Long on this episode of the “Driven to Ride” podcast, “and if you do it for 38 years, you'll have 500, too.” That is a competition milestone no other NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle racer has ever reached. In fact, no one has even come close.Rather than focus on his many racing successes, however, Johnson would rather talk about his off-track efforts. A California native who now calls Alabama home, Johnson is big on helping students achieve their goals. To that end, he founded the BAT-man Scholarship Program (“BAT” is an acronym for “Be A Technician”), awarded at high schools and technical colleges across the U.S. Connect with Us:Website: www.driventoridepodcast.comInstagram: www.Instagram.com/driventoridepodcastFacebook: www.facebook.com/driventorideEmail:hello@driventoridepodcast.com

Born in Fresno, CA, Jalen grew up in a blended family and learned early lessons about setting boundaries and offering support without enabling. After leaving home at 18, a series of tough breaks — including flipping a truck and a night in jail — taught him resilience. He eventually found his footing at ArborWorks, where he grew from inventory management to climbing and training others in safety and utility work. He helped the company scale smartly, standardizing gear and improving operations, until changes after a private equity takeover led him to a new chapter at Husqvarna. This is a story of growth, grit, and finding your lane.

Greek philosopher Plato is credited with the expression, “Our need will be the real creator,” which, loosely translated centuries later, became, “The true creator is necessity, who is the mother of our invention.” Peter Dering knows this feeling all too well, having come up with a device that, in the words of his company, Peak Design, “would make carrying and using a camera an absolute joy.”As he explains to host Mark Long in this episode of “Driven to Ride,” Dering moved to San Francisco for a construction engineering job. With his first bonus, he bought a Honda Nighthawk 750 and an SLR camera. “I used to ride with my camera slung across my chest every day,” says Dering. “Whoever designed the camera strap basically said, “Here's a business idea for you.”Nowadays, Peak Design offers a medley of innovative products, from unique backpacks and duffels to vibration-damping mobile-phone mounts and sturdy camera accessories. “We try to solve problems that we ourselves, the users of the product, encounter,” says Dering. “That's what we're known for, giving a solid rethink to products that are out there in the world.” Connect with Us:Website: www.driventoridepodcast.comInstagram: www.Instagram.com/driventoridepodcastFacebook: www.facebook.com/driventorideEmail:hello@driventoridepodcast.com

If you're a motorcyclist living and riding in the U.S., Nick Haris works for you. Even more so if you're one of the more than 200,000 members of the American Motorcyclist Association, whose tagline is “Rights, Riding, and Racing.” Haris leads a team of six who comprise the AMA's government-relations department. Their job is to protect your rights as a motorcyclist in the halls of government.In the second of two interviews with Haris, “Driven to Ride” host Mark Long digs into significant issues facing 21st-century motorcyclists, such as autonomous vehicles. “If this technology cannot recognize and respond correctly to other road users,” states Haris, “and I don't care if it is a pedestrian, a bicyclist, a motorcycle, or another car, it shouldn't be allowed on public roads.”Haris sheds light on other hot-button subjects, like alternative energy, helmet laws, land management, and lane filtering. “I often say, ‘Ten percent of the world has an opinion about motorcycling. They're in favor of it—you and I. Ten percent have some reason they don't like it. And then, 80% don't care.' So, let's not move them into the, ‘I don't like motorcycling category,' by doing something stupid.'” Connect with Us:Website: www.driventoridepodcast.comInstagram: www.Instagram.com/driventoridepodcastFacebook: www.facebook.com/driventorideEmail:hello@driventoridepodcast.com

Annick Magac and “Driven to Ride” host Mark Long grew up in different parts of the country, but they share common ground. They both live to ride and ride to live, as the saying goes, and they both have a strong sense of community. What's more, Magac founded her own motorcycle-oriented podcast, “Féroce,” which, as its title suggests, inspires listeners to “live fiercely.”No surprise, Magac has a competitive streak. In her 20s, she road-raced a Grand Prix-style Honda RS125 in American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association and Championship Cup Series events at various East Coast tracks, including historic New Hampshire Motor Speedway. “It was amazing,” she says, reminiscing about the diminutive two-stroke. “I think that may be the most exotic thing I've owned.”In this episode, Magac offers tips for riders who use motorcycles as their main form of transportation. Top of the list, she says, is warmth and safety. “I have heated grips. I have a connect for a heated vest. I don't fool around anymore with being cold. And I always wear gear. That's my commitment to my family and my commitment to myself in case things go sideways.” Check.

Motorcycling and politics don't mix, right? They do for Nick Haris. In college, the Washington state native was an economics major and worked at a motorcycle shop. Degree in hand, he applied for his dream job: a government-relations role at the American Motorcyclist Association. “It was just kind of a natural combination of that interest in politics and that love for motorcycling,” he says.In 2023, after more than 20 years on the job, Haris was made director of the AMA's Government Relations department. In the first of two interviews with “Driven to Ride” host Mark Long, Haris reiterates something we all know, that motorcyclists are a relatively small portion of the U.S. population. “If we look for reasons to divide ourselves,” he says, “we're not going to have a lot of success.”Spending long, memorable days in the saddle gives Haris time to think about the future of our country. “Reality is,” he says, “it's the city council that makes the decision or the board of supervisors that sets the zoning rule that really probably affects you more on a daily basis than anything that Congress is going to do. Day to day, it's the locals that you really need to get to know.” Good advice.

Larry Fletcher grew up in Wisconsin in the late 1960s and early '70s, like a lot of people his age, doing “silly stuff” on minibikes with his buddies. He took a break from motorcycling until he moved to Chicago as a 20-something. “I figured out, what a great way to commute,” he says. “Bikes were an easier way to get around, and I loved getting back in the saddle again. It was great.”Fletcher worked the Chicagoland bar and club circuit. Motorcycles, especially the vintage British iron he favored, were part of the street scene. That eventually led in the mid-1990s to establishing an official chapter of the U.K.-based “59 Club,” which was famously founded by the late Rev. Bill Shergold, known in two-wheel circles as the “ton-up vicar.”Fast forward to the present day. Fletcher, Martin Cimek, and Sean McKeough have grown the annual MOTOBLOT hot-rod culture celebration into an event so big it needed its own dedicated venue. “Whatever you're into,” he says about the biker blowout of the summer, “internal combustion or even now with electric, anything on two wheels, we embrace it.” Invitation accepted!

We'll cover the good and the bad of nearly all of the boys' various vehicles:  Derek's bikes – the Ducati Panigale V4S and Husqvarna 701 Supermoto.  Jason's E30s – the 325i wagon and beater sedan track car.  The mid-engine Italian exotics – Derek's Lamborghini Miura and Jason's 1975 Ferrari 308 GT4. Then, Jason's mid-engine micro machine 1991 Honda Beat. Naturally, a plethora of Mercedes products will be in the mix – the R129 500SL, W201 190E 2.3-16, W124 E320 wagon and W202 C43. The atypical oddballs: the Rover SD1 and Citroen CX.  Plus Jason's new-to-him V12 E31 BMW 850 CSi and Derek's favorite back-road weapon 964-chassis Porsche 911. And we'll round things out with Jason's babies – the VW Scirocco and Mk1 Cabriolet.  You'll learn about the Rover SD1's sketchy, outdated front suspension design, and the 190E's oversized steering wheel and underbolstered seats. The corpulent hamster styling of the e-Golf and terrible brake balancing on the Beat. The 964 sounds like flatulence, and the VW Cabriolet sounds like imminent disintegration. Recaro-equipped, art deco, cheap, and Zebra-print interiors. Sloppy shifters, burning odors, affordable V12 Ferraris and BMWs, and the Mk1 VWs' good vibrations versus the E30 M3's shit ones.  Join us for some Nikki Glaser-inspired antics, Carmudgeon-style!
