Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: LEMCs, Hierarchy, and Why They Are Hated Last night on our show Church, Woo 1%er and Black Dragon had one hell of a go-around about LEMCs, their hierarchy, and where they sit in the biker community.

Motorcycle traveller Andy Scherer was riding alone through a remote part of Mexico when a series of troubling encounters led to armed roadblocks—and his abduction. In this episode of Deep Trouble, Andy and his daughter Leslie share what happened, the decisions he faced and what other motorcycle travellers can learn from the experience.

The Isle of Man TT and motorcycle road racing events like the North West 200, the Ulster Grand Prix, the Macau Grand Prix, and the Cookstown 100 are known for their uncompromising brutality and provide some of the greatest highs and the most tragic of lows seen in any sporting field. There are only three possible outcomes for riders: win, lose, or die. It's that basic; it's that savage.Catch Giles live - 'Let's Talk' - Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday - from 10.00CET...on tre.radio

Wonder where all the young riders have gone? Well, the ones in California that aren't riding electric Surrons and the like are riding ratty old choppers and Triumph Desert Sleds. Episode 120 of The Lowdown Radio Show features Nathanial Ramirez, a young Mexican-American enthusiast whose tasteful films document the west coast scene. Ramirez tells us about his influences—Spaghetti Westerns among them—and why any motorcycle over 10 grand is, to many his age, irrelevant. We're going to be featuring video clips from his Motorcycle Archives project so, if you can, head over to YouTube. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Why a motorcycle first aid kit should be part of your riding gear — and why the kit itself is only part of being prepared.A motorcycle first aid kit often gets treated like an extra — something for remote trips, cautious riders, or people with medical training. But if riding motorcycles carries risk, then first aid should be part of the preparation. Not just a small pouch of bandages, but a kit that makes sense for motorcycling, the places we ride, and the situations we may come across.

Nearly 50 years after a magazine story planted the dream of crossing Australia by motorcycle, Allan Waldon finally set out to make it happen. Riding unsupported with his mate Adam on two small motorcycles, he faced more than 6,000 kilometres of remote desert, flooded roads, deep gravel, fierce winds and slippery red clay. This is the story of two riders crossing a continent—and one man proving it's never too late to pursue a lifelong dream.

This week, the AI clown car somehow shifted into another gear. Apple is suing OpenAI over alleged trade-secret theft, newspapers accuse ChatGPT of training on stolen journalism while asking a judge to sanction the company, Anthropic is out here marketing AI with what looks like a feature-length anxiety attack, and Meta managed to launch—and kill—a creepy AI photo feature in less time than it takes to binge The Bear. Meanwhile, AI Appreciation Day wants you to thank the machines, but we'd rather thank the people still creating actual art while the rest of Silicon Valley burns cash convincing us the next chatbot is definitely different this time.Outside the AI bubble, the rest of the tech industry isn't exactly inspiring confidence. Volkswagen is cutting back on its lineup, New York paused new AI data centers before the electrical grid hits its limit, Europe and the UK are getting serious about keeping kids off social media, and publishers are finally realizing maybe feeding Google's AI isn't the best business move after all. Add in surveillance companies sulking over lost police contracts, lawsuits claiming Meta let algorithms decide who gets fired, smart glasses disqualifying cyclists, and a new pile of orbital junk threatening the satellites we depend on, and it's another reminder that "move fast and break things" eventually leaves you ankle-deep in broken glass.Of course, we still made time for the important stuff: Project Hail Mary, Black Bag, the return of Middle-earth with The Hunt for Gollum and rumors that OpenAI's "revolutionary” gadget might just be a smart speaker with delusions of grandeur. Throw in digital piano repairs, anti-data-center lawn signs, AI trying to sell solar panels, too much stuff at Downtown Disney, and you get another week where reality out-satirizes satire itself. As always, never build your house in someone else's backyard, and maybe don't let the chatbot build it either.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

Send us Fan MailYour dog has already mastered the skill most of us spend years chasing: being fully here. Picture that head-out-the-window grin, eyes forward, ears back, nose buried in the wind like it's the best story ever written. That's not just cute. It's a blueprint for motorcycle mindfulness, stress relief, and a calmer mind in a loud world.I connect the rush of riding to what dogs do naturally, from the science of scent and sensory overload to the deeper truth that they don't drag the past behind them. We also talk about why dogs on trails can change how wild animals respond, and why that “born to be wild” instinct still lives inside even the smallest, bow-wearing pup. Then I share a piece of my own life with Sally, my rescued co-pilot, and how an old Wrangler with no comforts still feels like pure freedom.If life feels too busy, too heavy, or too chaotic to take a break, I make the case that you don't have time not to ride. When we shut off texts, email, and endless noise, our brains don't go dormant. They get clear. You'll leave with a simple practice for bringing your attention back to the physical reality of the road: wind pressure, engine hum, temperature shifts, and the subtle feel of the bike as it leans and tracks.Thank you Episode Sponsor - Viking Bags:   https://www.vikingbags.com/Viking Bags BMW R1250 GS Adventure Touring Hard Side Cases:https://www.vikingbags.com/collections/bmw-r-1250-gs-adventure-touring-hard-side-casesBecome a Member: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2126578/supporters/newBuy Ron a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/peacelovemotoGear Up at the Shop: https://peacelovemotostore.com

  Toso, my new 2026 Yamaha XMAX 300 Learning something new later in life can feel intimidating. We get comfortable with what we already know, and the thought of looking awkward or even failing can keep us from trying. In this episode, I share why I decided to earn my motorcycle license at 69, purchase a 2026 Yamaha XMAX, and embrace the challenge of becoming a complete beginner again. Along the way, I learned that countless hours spent practicing slow turns and emergency stops in an empty church parking lot weren’t just teaching me how to ride…they were teaching me something far more valuable. Without HotSpringsVillageInsideOut.com this would have never happened. Whether your next adventure involves two wheels, a new hobby, a new career, or simply stepping outside your comfort zone, the principle is the same: everything is hard until it isn’t. If you’re willing to endure the boredom of practice and the humility of being a beginner, you’ll discover new confidence, new freedom, and the joy that comes from proving to yourself that it’s never too late to learn something new. Jef with Maxim Motor Sport, Allen, TX Shout out to Jef at MaximHondaYamaha.net in Allen, Texas (972.359.0202). They’re a big shop with a massive inventory of powersport machines, gear, and accessories. It’s my first motorcycle purchase, and it was extraordinary! And I’m not getting one cent to say so. I highly recommend Jeff and the rest of the crew. Here’s a selfie I took right after Jeff loaded my new scooter onto the trailer – minutes before I pulled away to bring her back to the Village. I named her Toso, a Fiji term that conveys the idea of moving forward, advancing, or continuing on. I’m not from Fiji. Never been. But over 4 decades ago, I ran across a Fijian term, “bula”. It’s analogous to “Aloha” in Hawaiian. It’s a greeting and means both hello and good-bye. It also means “life” and carries the connotation that “life is good.” I started using it as a greeting on my internal memos in the company I was running at the time. I’d write, “Bula!” instead of some other greeting. Years later, when forming my company, Bula had to be incorporated, so I named my company Bula Network (not because of podcasting or publishing, but because of PEOPLE). So I figured this new scooter needed some Fijian name, too. Toso. It’s pronounced TOH-soh, with the emphasis on the first syllable: TOH (rhymes with “go”) and soh (also rhymes with “go”). So it sounds like: TOH-soh.   • Join Our Free Email Newsletter • Subscribe to Our YouTube Channel (click that bell icon, too) • Join Our Facebook Group • Support Our Sponsors (Click on the images below to visit their websites.) __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________

But this episode isn't about crime. It's about redemption. After serving his sentence and walking out of prison, Richie faced the challenge that countless formerly incarcerated individuals know all too well: rebuilding a life from the ground up. Rather than allowing his past to define his future, he chose a different path—one built on perseverance, accountability, resilience, and personal transformation. In this powerful conversation, Richie shares his experiences with prison, organized crime, second chances, personal growth, and the difficult journey of starting over after incarceration. His story serves as a reminder that no matter how far someone has fallen, meaningful change is possible, and hope can be found even in life's darkest chapters. If you've ever wondered whether people can truly change, this episode provides an unforgettable answer. Topics Covered: Life inside prison Organized crime and mob culture Russell Bufalino and prison experiences Motorcycle club culture Redemption and second chances Reentry after incarceration Personal transformation Overcoming adversity Resilience and perseverance Finding purpose after prison Subscribe to The Suffering Podcast for more powerful stories of trauma, resilience, redemption, and the human capacity to overcome adversity.

That Don't Sound Right is a podcast about talking—the way we did before the internet, when you couldn't instantly prove anyone right or wrong and all the expertise lived in the people around the conversation. We hope you enjoy our conversations, and if you ever find yourself thinking, That Don't Sound Right, send us a comment. You're one of us. This week, Peter and Cecil tackle one of the most legendary—and controversial—sporting events in the world: the Isle of Man TT. Held on the winding public roads of a small island in the Irish Sea, this iconic motorcycle race has captivated fans for more than a century with breathtaking speeds, incredible skill, and undeniable danger. The hosts explore the famous 37.73-mile Mountain Course, featuring more than 219 turns, stone walls, villages, mountain passes, and straightaways where riders reach astonishing speeds. They discuss the history of the TT, the unique sidecar races, the army of volunteer marshals who make the event possible, and the remarkable logistics of welcoming tens of thousands of fans to an island of just 85,000 residents. Along the way, Peter and Cecil share their own motorcycle experiences, debate the balance between risk and passion, and wonder what compels riders to compete in an event many consider the most dangerous motorcycle race in the world. It's a conversation about adventure, tradition, engineering, and the people who willingly chase the edge. Whether you're a lifelong motorcycle enthusiast or you've never heard of the Isle of Man TT, this episode offers an entertaining look at one of motorsport's most extraordinary spectacles—and why it continues to fascinate riders and fans around the globe. Because when someone tells you motorcycles race flat-out through villages, over mountain roads, and past stone walls at nearly 200 miles per hour... that don't sound right. #tdsrpodcast #ThatDontSoundRight #IsleOfManTT #TT2026 #MotorcycleRacing #RoadRacing #Motorcycles #Motorsports #SidecarRacing #IrishSea #Adventure #MotorcyclePodcast #RoadRace #RacingHistory #Travel #Engineering #MotoLife Connect with us:

She Told Her Director "Your Actions Don't Support That Opinion." He Apologized. Harley-Davidson's Ashwini on Self-Advocacy, Disrespect, and Owning Your Career She had a new director who made every interaction feel disrespectful — no matter the topic, no matter how well she was performing. It wasn't the work. It was the treatment. She hit her limit, went to her manager, and said: "There are only two paths. I have a crucial conversation with the director, or we go different directions." The meeting was scheduled. She opened by asking the director directly what he thought of her work. He praised her for two minutes. Then she said: "Your actions don't support that opinion. I don't feel respected when we interact. I don't feel wanted in this department." He was taken aback. He apologized. They reset. She went into that meeting prepared to lose her job if she had to — and she walked out with a relationship she could actually work in. Ashwini holds a bachelor's and master's in mechanical engineering from the University of Michigan. She spent over 20 years in automotive before moving to the motorcycle industry, where she is now Head of Motorcycle Development Strategy and Operations at Harley-Davidson Motor Company — one of the most male-dominated sectors in manufacturing. She is also President of the Automotive Women's Alliance Foundation (AWAF). And she will be the first to tell you she has never had a long-term sponsor. In this episode, she is completely direct about what has actually driven her career forward. You'll learn: Why she spent the first decade of her career with her head down doing great work, why it was necessary but not sufficient, and the moment she realized nobody outside her immediate area knew she had the appetite or ability to grow beyond it. Why she believes there is only one completely reliable advocate you will ever have, why most women are better at being advocates for others than for themselves, and how she built that muscle precisely because she didn't have a long-term sponsor. The full story of the disrespectful director: how she identified the problem, how she structured the conversation, why she led with "what do you think of my work?" before stating her case, and why going in prepared to lose her job is what gave her the confidence to say what needed to be said. The mentee who called her on a weekend in tears saying "I feel stupid." How Ashwini diagnosed the real problem (disrespect, not technical gaps), reached into her network to move the mentee to a different department, and how the same HR contact she helped later reached out to recommend her for a strategy role — a direct return on giving she never could have predicted. Why she describes her sponsors as "situational" rather than long-term, what that means in practice, and why she thinks the traditional sponsor model is harder to find than people admit. How she uses her role as AWAF president — where she manages an entire P&L — as a judgment-free environment to build skills that corporate rarely hands to women: financial leadership, public speaking, board-level decision making. The four A's feedback framework she uses with her leadership team: Appreciate, Assess, Action, Align — and how it prevents feedback from crossing into personal attack territory. Why she believes assertiveness and humility come from the same foundation, not opposing ones — and how saying "I don't know, and here's my plan to close that gap" has enabled her to pivot more successfully than projecting false confidence ever could. About Ashwini: Head of Motorcycle Development Strategy and Operations at Harley-Davidson Motor Company and President of the Automotive Women's Alliance Foundation (AWAF). She holds a BS and MS in mechanical engineering from the University of Michigan and has spent over two decades in engineering and strategy leadership across automotive and motorcycle industries.

Some brands of motorcycle--we know who you are--can't stop going on (and on) about their past. Kind of like the neighbor who can't believe a gallon of gas isn't 35 cents anymore. But is clinging to the mythology of past successes healthy for the future of a brand, as marketers would lead you to believe? Or is a backward view unhealthy for both the manufacturer and its true believers. Think of it this way: the brand with the greatest legacy of all, be it Grand Prix wins or iconic models or the way it revolutionized motorcycling itself is a brand we don't think of as having any legacy at all: Honda. Manufacturers who can't seem to address modernity lean on legacy like it's a walker to keep them from falling over. Motorcycle Global's Michael Uhlarik weighs in on the perils of clinging too tightly to what once was. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Balance on a motorcycle is often treated like something a rider either has or does not have, but low-speed motorcycle balance is a skill that can be learned, practiced, and refined. Clinton Smout from SMART Performance Centre and host, Jim Martin, examine what happens when the bike slows down, how riders manage balance through steering, peg weighting, body position, acceleration, and foot placement, and what putting a foot down can reveal about motorcycle control, confidence, and riding skill.

Guy Martin is a television presenter, mechanic and former motorcycle racer. During his career he achieved 17 podium finishes at the Isle of Man TT (Tourist Trophy) Races – one of the most prestigious and dangerous motorcycling events in the world. His television programmes often focus on his daredevil nature and combine two of his greatest loves - engineering and history.Guy was brought up in the village of Kirmington in North Lincolnshire. When he was five his father, who raced bikes himself, bought him his first motorcycle which he promptly crashed into the rose garden. His father is a mechanic and Guy used to sit and watch him at work in the shed from a young age and at 12 he began working for him at weekends and during school holidays.Guy's first race meeting was at Cadwell Park in Lincolnshire when he was 19. Less than a minute into the race he crashed. He was not badly injured but the bike was destroyed in the process. In 2004 he made his debut at the biggest road race of them all – the Isle of Man TT, finishing seventh in the Senior race and winning the Newcomers Trophy. Guy retired from racing in 2015 after a very bad crash at the Ulster Grand Prix. After that he turned to his bicycle and has taken part in several endurance cycling events, including the Tour Divide, to test his resolve and stamina and fill the adrenaline gap.Guy lives in Lincolnshire with his wife Sharon, their daughter Dottie and three dogs.

How to Choose the Best Camping Setup for the Way You RideBefore you start comparing motorcycle tents, sleeping pads, stoves, chairs, pack sizes, and weights, there is an important question to answer. In this episode, Ben Williams from Moto Camp Nerd talks about a simple way to think through your motorcycle camping setup before you start buying gear, so your choices are based on the way you actually ride and travel, not just someone else's packing list. Michnus and Elsebie Olivier of PikiPiki Overland and Turkana Gear also share lessons learned from years of motorcycle travel, including what they've overpacked, what they've replaced, and what has earned a permanent place in their kit. It's a practical conversation about choosing gear with purpose, not just following the latest trends.

Send us Fan MailA motorcycle can cover distance fast, but that's not the point of this ride. We're chasing something quieter: a clear head, a lighter heart, and the kind of focus you only find when the road starts twisting and the mountains start towering. From Loveland, Colorado, I take you on a two-day, 350-mile Colorado Rockies loop designed for riders who love traffic-free roads, remote valleys, and the feeling of being small in the best way.We climb through the canyons and along the Cache la Poudre River, stop for a big breakfast at a local landmark, and roll into the wide-open stillness of Walden and North Park where fuel range and wildlife awareness actually matter. Then we cross Rabbit Ears Pass into Steamboat Springs, dig into the history behind the famous F M Light and Sons signs, and settle into pure Americana at the Rabbit Ears Motel before an easy evening by the Yampa River.Day two turns epic as we aim for Rocky Mountain National Park and Trail Ridge Road, the highest continuous paved road in America. We cruise the Kawuneeche Valley past willow marshes and the Colorado River headwaters, climb above tree line toward Milner Pass, and soak in views that stretch all the way toward Wyoming. We wrap with a coffee stop at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, sneak onto a lesser-known back road, and ride home with one simple reminder: we ride not to escape life, but to make sure life doesn't escape us. If this ride gave you a calmer mind, subscribe, share it with a riding buddy, and leave a review so more riders can find the peaceful route.Thank you Episode Sponsor - Viking Bags:   https://www.vikingbags.com/Viking Bags BMW R1250 GS Adventure Touring Hard Side Cases:https://www.vikingbags.com/collections/bmw-r-1250-gs-adventure-touring-hard-side-casesWant to Support the Podcast?Become a Member: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2126578/supporters/newBuy Ron a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/peacelovemotoGear Up at the Shop: https://peacelovemotostore.com

Why Robert Pirsig's Famous Motorcycle Book Mattered to Him — And Why it Didn'tTed Simon is best known as the author of Jupiter's Travels, one of the most influential motorcycle travel books ever written. Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is another book that has long held a strange place in motorcycling culture: widely known, often recommended, and perhaps just as often left unfinished. In this conversation, Ted talks about finally reading Pirsig's famous book and why it matters to him in a way listeners might not expect. Is it really a motorcycle book? Why has it stayed in the minds of riders for so many years? And what does motorcycle maintenance mean when the machine beneath you is not just a symbol, but the thing that determines whether the journey continues? What begins with one famous motorcycle book soon opens into Ted's own memories of travel, breakdowns, repair, and the very practical reality of keeping a journey alive when there is no easy answer and no one else to do the work.

Solo Motorcycle Travel Through South America with Lala BarlowLala Barlow was working in musical theatre in Melbourne, Australia, when the pandemic brought the industry to a halt.
