Creative Riding Episode 95 “The Motor Challenge”

….
Motorcycles… YAY Motorcycles!! This week Chris and I are starting a new 5 week challenge. There are also a couple interviews. 00:01:50 The ‘Crazy’ Motor Challenge: Chris and I have constructed a challenge that began with a discussion over the Ducati Stradale, and will probably end in humiliation on two wheels. Here’s the breakdown: We will have a 5 week throw-down that revolves around ‘crazy’ motors. a. Each week we will have a head-to-head ‘battle’, or comparison of different motors. We have made our lists and locked them in, but we won’t reveal the motor until the recording of the show. b. Three different podcasts (Misfits, Cleveland Moto, Wingman’s) will judge our motors based on their own interpretation of how ‘crazy’ our motors are. This will keep us honest, and we won’t have to guess who won for the week. c. Chris and I have decided that the motors will not be one-off, novelty, or car motors in a bike. (for example: no Boss Hoss, single prototype, or helicopter turbine bikes) Not that it can’t be small production though, like a Britten, Confederate, Lightning, etc) d. After five weeks (or the best of five, which ever happens first) we will tally the votes and the loser shall be issued a penalty. e. The penalty shall be moto-related, and shall not exceed $100. I’m cheap and broke! I think Chris is too! 00:40:00 We discuss the AFT finals, and I interviewed Chris right after he finished the night 8th in the Perris Round of the RSD Super Hooligan National Flat Track Series. The Super Hooligans ran in conjunction with the AFT finals. We hung out with Jeffrey Carver afterward, and Chris secured 6th position in the overall standings going into the final round. 01:02:10 Wiggins interviews Juan, one of his co-workers, on the way to Willow Springs for a track day. They discuss the pre-track Juan, and in subsequent episodes, we’ll be bringing you Juan’s story and his journey from ‘motorcycle guy’ to ‘track star’. 01:20:35 We do our Random-grams Instagram Pick-of-the-Week: @jrod_racing is my pick. This girl rocks the two-wheels. Whether it’s dirt, track or street, this chick RIPS IT!!! @cafekillers is Chris Wiggins’ pick. They have legit old-stool sport bikes and race pics. This IG is radical… like totally. Please leave a review wherever you get our podcast. check out the show blog or email us a cool story www.creative-riding.com creativeridingpodcast@gmail.com
