The podcast MPC team members got together using Zoom and we talked all things Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge (MPC) related. Oh...and we also talked a little about the Loud Pipes! and Throttled podcasts coming to a close, navigation devices, tools and apps, touch sensitive gloves and add-ons, cruise control, being your own "back seat driver", front suspension including the BMW Telelever, and finally the team gives me their ideas on the podcast and what directions I should take the podcast next.

Since I have not released a podcast episode in quite a while, AND since we have our own podcast team for the Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge (MPC) this year, I thought it would be cool to do a podcast episode for each week of the MPC. The podcast team members got together using Zoom and we introduced ourselves to the listeners, talked about the MPC, what we like and don't like about it, the cool places we have visited so far, what are objectives are for the challenge, we answered questions, pondered if there are any "gentlemen's rules" for the competition and encourage other riders to join in on the fun next year...assuming the MPC keeps going for at least another year...and who knows, maybe these podcast episodes will help make that a reality! We also touch on some other topics like "there's no crying in motorcycles" and that maybe the MPC Flash Challenges should involve doing wheelies and stoppies. :-) Oh...and we talk a little about the Harley Davidson Pan America. And we have some adult beverages in honor of the Loud Pipes podcast, which recently published its final episode.

In this episode I start by talking about why it's been 3 weeks since I released the last episode…a water boiler leak in our Levitt house, shopping for my new Arai helmet (and more importantly getting a good fit), and all the activities surrounding the holidays. I also thank my new podcast supporters and announce the new Podcast Supporter page on my web site and the various support levels. I revisit Shane Patilla's question on shopping for gear, and I talk about helmet standards and helmet shelf life as well as provide some guidelines on the basic gear a rider needs…helmet, jacket, pants, boots and gloves. I mention things to consider when shopping for gear, including close-out deals and counterfeits. And I discuss my New Year’s resolutions regarding the podcast and my own riding this year. I cover my first ride of the new year on the Isle of Man(hattan) ride. And I go over my plans for the podcast and my plans for California Superbike School, other rider training and Motojitsu. I cover my plans for the motorcycle races I want to attend in 2020 and end off with some tips on heated gear that fits snugly, avoiding hypothermia, and choosing and modifying gear so it is easy to use with your riding gloves on.

You'll also hear audio clips of the engine and exhaust notes of all three bikes.
