Creative Riding Episode 173 “Is the fantasy worth it”
Welcome to Episode 173
On this week’s episode we do a little chatting with the Beast from the Near-East, The Puffed-up Chest from the Midwest, The Fair Dame with the Wild Mane that’s Hard to Tame, The female Charles Bronson from Wisconsin – Michelle Mankiewicz. We dive into her preparation for the upcoming WIR’s Top 10 Bikes drag racing series at Wisconsin International Raceway. She’s also been hitting the dirt, and hints at some other avenues that she might explore this year.
On top of being voted Wisconsin’s Strongest Woman, Michelle is also no slouch in the kitchen, taking several regional titles with her prize-winning pies and chilis. She’s also an educator and a horse whisperer. The last one might be false.
Law Tigers, America’s Motorcycle Attorneys, have given Creative Riding 4 tickets to this year’s AFT Sacramento Mile on May 18th. They are the title sponsor for this event, as well the AFT Arizona TT. If you’d like a chance to win the tickets, listen for half of the “winning phrase” and then listen to Motorcycles & Misfits on Monday for the second half. E-mail the phrase to creativeridingpodcast@gmail.com to be entered into a drawing for a pair of tickets! Good luck!
William has a great event happening this Sunday in the Philly area! Thanks for the heads up buddy!

We had the chance to talk to Al Jesse from MotoManufacturing.com at IMS Long Beach last year. His MirrorLok product really impressed me with the quality and functionality of the device. Now they are back with MotoDock – a multi-purpose ball-mount that comes in 3 sizes, and is compatible with Ram Mounts, Cameras, popular aftermarket mirrors and more! Take a peek for yourself:
It’s fair to say that many celebrities have gotten into motorcycles (or probably were into motorcycles) and have been spotted in movies or tabloids ripping around various cities across the globe. Since it’s spring time and the summer blockbusters are just around the corner, I asked Jae and Wiggins what celebrity they would most like to ride with.
In light of this week’s events, we are also wishing local celebrities Jamie Robinson and Barry Weiss a full and speedy recovery after their accident in Los Feliz.
With the Spring Riding Season having finally arrived for all but those on the Weddell Ice Shelf, it’s time to start planning those moto trips and rides. Junkster asks Jae and Chris where they would most like to take their celebrity riding.
Are you even worth it? Not you, listener. Your motorcycle. Jae did a study based on average repair and maintenance costs of her truck vs 2 motorcycles. Are motorbikes actually worth the hassle per mile vs a cage? Find out.
The Texas 1/2 mile wrapped up over the weekend, and we have a little race report.
