  • Ep. 4 Both Sides of the Decanter
    2026/07/31
    This episode is extra special because, for the first time since they started the show, Gina and Chantill are recording in-person instead of miles apart. The occasion? Chantill's big birthday celebration! Enter the unforgettable gift: a motorcycle-shaped whiskey decanter that is equal parts totally on brand, absolutely badass, and maybe just the smidgiest over the top. But sure to be the center of many conversations to come…Through the laughs, as always, Kitty on the Tank takes a gentle sweeper into deeper subjects.Inspired by the decanter sitting between them, Gina and Chantill unpack the idea that every story has two sides. Every adventure has moments that make you feel unstoppable...and moments that make you question all of your life choices. They share the rides that thrilled them, the experiences that challenged them, and the lessons they never saw coming.Of course, no episode would be complete without celebrating the incredible people they've met along the way. From fierce women who redefine what it means to ride, to the men who've become trusted friends, mentors, and road companions, this episode is a love letter to the motorcycle community that continues to show up, lift each other up, and make every mile worth it.So grab your favorite drink (bonus points if it's poured from a ridiculously cool decanter), pull up a seat, and join Gina and Chantill for an episode full of laughter, heartfelt reflections, a little birthday magic, and proof that the best conversations - just like the best rides - always have more than one side.This Episode's Listener Question:Follow us on Instagram @KittyOnTheTank and tag us in your ride photos, stories, adventures, and shenanigans. We'll be featuring listeners and celebrating members of this amazing community in future episodes.For this episode, if anything's bubbling up for you around the “both/and” of riding or adventuring, share, share, share!

  • Ep. 3 Stories from the Road
    2026/07/17
    You know that saying, "The journey is the destination?"Yeah...it's also where all the weird shit happens.This week, Gina checks in from somewhere between New Orleans and California after what was supposed to be a straightforward ride west. I’m sure you can guess that…it wasn't.Because the road doesn't care about your f*cking itinerary.Heat? Reroute.Wildfire smoke? Believe it or not...reroute again.Drop a laptop somewhere along the way? Uh oh. Turns out one of the greatest riding skills has nothing to do with leaning into corners. It's learning how to hold your plans loosely enough that adventure and life can surprise you and you can leave enough space for the glory.We dive into both the Outer Game and the Inner Game of rolling with whatever the road throws your way. On the practical side, we're swapping travel tips, talking weather apps (major points for Drive Weather) that have become absolute ride-savers, and sharing how we've been using AI to rethink routes, uncover hidden gems, and make smarter decisions before the kickstand even comes up.Along the way, there are mechanical gremlins, a story that's almost too ridiculous to be true, unexpected acts of kindness, a few deep rabbit holes, and more than one reminder that the best adventures rarely go according to plan.So here's our question for you...What's the best story the road has given you?The breakdown. The wrong turn. The person you never expected to meet. The moment that still makes you laugh every time you tell it.Share it with us on Instagram @KittyOnTheTank. We just might feature you in an upcoming episode.Now quit waiting for the perfect plan.Put your kitty on the tank, ladies.Let's get it.Mentioned in this Episode🏍️ Where Next Motohttps://www.wherenextmoto.com🏍️ Women's Moto Wellness Summithttps://www.womensmotowellnesssummit.com🧠 Nervous System Works (Chantill Lopez)https://www.nervoussystemworks.com🔥 The Wilder Practice (Gina Pelucca)https://www.thewilderpractice.comComing Up NextWe've officially reunited in California, which means it's time to celebrate Chantill's birthday, hit the road together again, and point our bikes toward the Women's Moto Wellness Summit.Knowing us, there will be laughs, questionable decisions, deep conversations, at least one near miss, and probably another story we'll still be telling ten years from now.Follow, Subscribe & Share⭐ Follow the show⭐ Leave a review⭐ Tell a riding buddy⭐ Share this episode⭐ Tag us in your adventures @KittyOnTheTankThanks for riding with us.CreditsHosted by Chantill Lopez & Gina PeluccaProduction by Alyssa Frain - https://www.alyssafrain.comOriginal music written and performed by Max Mackey - https://www.maxmackey.comGraphic Art by xofinn - https://www.instagram.com/xofinn and https://www.xofinn.comAll things supported by Operations Manager, Haylee Gernert - The Virtual Life Hosted on Acast.

  • Ep. 2 Rolling Solo
    2026/07/03
    Have you ever wanted to point your bike toward the horizon and just...go?In this episode, we're talking all about riding solo, why we love it, what scares us, how we prepare, and why we think every rider should experience it at least once in their own way.Gina takes us back to her 2017 100-day sabbatical, when she spent nearly 90 days crossing the country on two wheels. With no interstates, no reservations, and no real plan beyond following the road, she discovered that solo travel isn't just about where you end up, it's about learning to trust yourself.As Gina gets ready to head out on another solo adventure from New Orleans to Sacramento, we dive into both the inner game and the outer game of riding alone. We talk about confidence, fear, excitement, and how the inner and outer game dance. We also uncover a sweet little nugget about the “spark” and we wonder…what’s your spark?Of course, we also get into the practical stuff, packing (and overpacking), our favorite can't-live-without gear, why rain gear is basically a good luck charm, and how to pack the equivalent of 4 bottles of wine into your tank bag. I mean….Whether you're a seasoned solo rider, you've been thinking about taking your first trip alone, or you're just curious what draws us back to the open road every chance we get, we hope this conversation leaves you feeling inspired to chase your own adventure be it in a car, on a bicycle, or on your two beautiful feet. We'd love to hear from you! Have you ridden solo? What's your biggest hesitation? or your favorite memory? Share your stories and photos with us on Instagram @KittyOnTheTank.

We’ll be checking in with Gina as she approaches the West Coast to hear about all the guaranteed weird shit that has transpired in nine days of riding. One thing will likely lead to another and we’ll go down some fun and wild rabbit holes, sharing near-misses, jackasses in big rigs, and maybe even tell you about the time Gina peed on the side of a church.
