Send us Fan MailWind therapy sounds gentle until you are leaned over in a hard crosswind, peeling your fingers off the grips at the next coffee stop and realizing you just spent 75 miles getting punched sideways by air. That is where this ride begins: Mark rolls up on his Triumph Rocket 3, I'm on my BMW R1250GS Adventure, and a simple plan turns into a 300-mile loop into Wyoming where the wind and rain decide to make the rules. We talk through what gusty riding really feels like and what it teaches fast: the instinct to fight back, the death grip on the handlebars, the shoulders creeping up to your ears, and the mental spiral that comes from trying to control something that will not be controlled. The core shift is acceptance. The wind always wins, so the skill is learning how to stay smooth, hold your line, and let the bike move without letting your mind panic. If you've ever searched for “how to ride a motorcycle in strong crosswinds,” this conversation puts the technique and the mindset in plain language. Then the story opens up into something bigger than motorcycles. Weather patterns do what they do, and life does the same: a medical scare, an unexpected bill, a tough conversation can hit like a sudden 40 mph gust. But directions change. The same wind that beats you up as a crosswind can become a tailwind on the way home, and the force that felt personal starts to feel like flow. If this helps you ride smarter or breathe easier, subscribe, share the episode with a riding buddy, and leave a review. What is the worst wind you've ever ridden through, and what did it teach you?Become a Member: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2126578/supporters/newBuy Ron a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/peacelovemotoGear Up at the Shop: https://peacelovemotostore.com
Send us Fan MailRoute 66 turns 100, and that milestone pulls me back to the ride that quietly rewired my outlook on people. I'm Ron Francis in Loveland, Colorado, and I'm retracing a moment from a solo motorcycle trip that started as a simple plan: follow the towns from “Get Your Kicks On Route 66” and enjoy the open road. What I didn't plan for was a morning in Gallup, New Mexico that hit harder than any mile marker or desert vista.Traveling alone on a motorcycle makes you approachable in a way a big group often isn't. You pull off your helmet, you look like just another human passing through, and conversations find you. Outside a local cafe, I met an older man who looked worn down, and my first reaction was pure ego: I assumed I was the helper and he was the one who needed saving. I offered breakfast, ready to feel generous, and I almost offered the kind of “charity advice” that is really just judgment in nicer packaging.Then he spoke, and everything shifted. With quiet dignity he shared his Navajo heritage, his past as a recovering alcoholic, time in jail, and the chaplain's words that helped him rebuild his life. He talked about honest work, gratitude for each day, and the rare treasure most of us chase without finding: peace of mind. By the time the meal ended, I realized the lesson wasn't about what I could give him. It was about what I needed to learn from him.If you care about solo motorcycle riding, Route 66 history, and the real meaning of kindness, this story is for you.

Send us Fan MailOriginally aired in 2023, we return to have some fun. To play. Remember the rush of being 10 years old and hearing a friend ask, “Can you come out to play?” That question used to be effortless, and somewhere between bills, jobs, and the daily grind, many of us lost it. I'm Ron Francis, and I'm bringing it back through the lens of motorcycling, because a ride can be more than transportation. It can be a real psychological reset that cuts stress, restores presence, and reminds you what joy feels like when it isn't scheduled. I take you with me from Colorado back to my roots in Texas, where a long coffee shop talk with my childhood best friend opens the floodgates. We don't just swap updates, we relive the kind of memories that shaped us: hours of unstructured fun, the safety of a good friend, and the simple world we lived in before we learned to carry so much worry. That nostalgia isn't just sentimental. It's a clue about what our nervous systems still need. Then we zoom out into the science of play and why it matters for kids and adults, from how offline play supports social, emotional, and cognitive development to why screens can change the way we process experience. Even a few squirrels tearing around the backyard become a reminder that play is not frivolous. It's part of being alive. We end with a practical challenge: make time for a short ride, invite a buddy, and treat your motorcycle like the purest form of adult play. Subscribe, share this with a riding friend, and leave a review so more riders can find that peaceful, easy feeling.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

Hello boys and girls, Today we're joined by a true Route 66 legend: Jerry McClanahan, author of the iconic EZ 66 Guide for Travelers. If you've ever dreamed of exploring the Mother Road, chances are Jerry's maps, notes, and hand-drawn gems have guided your wheels. We're going to dig into the creation of the guide, the research behind it, the updates that keep it fresh, and the magic of Route 66 itself. Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned road wanderer, this conversation is packed with insight, history, and a whole lot of heart.EZ66 WebsitePlease patronize our Wonderful Sponsors!!Tobacco Motorwear Scorpion Helmets Wild-Ass Seats Viking Bags Please take the time and help the families of fallen soldiers.
