  • Podcast 653: L.A. to Barstow to Vegas aka Charley's Blown Bearing

    Podcast 653: L.A. to Barstow to Vegas aka Charley's Blown Bearing
    2025/12/08
    The LA-Barstow-to-Vegas (LAB2V) is a famous, long-running annual two-day dual-sport motorcycle event that covers over 400 miles of mostly off-road desert terrain between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, and our very own Charley, Scottie and Hector decided to give it a go. This is not an easy ride, so most people take a light, nimble and capable off road bike something like the KTM EXC500. But of course Misfits don't take the easy ride, and opt for the challenge instead. Charley rode his Yamaha Super Tenere, Hector his KTM 1290 Adventure, and being the wisest among them, Scottie opted for her Husqvarna 701. It might not surprise you to hear that only one of them finished the ride (I wonder who?) but all three arrived safe and had a great time. They share their stories and lessons from the trip, and we talk about what would be the perfect bike for this challenging ride. And due to Charley's unfortunate situation, we take a moment to talk about bearings, how important they are, and how little they've changed in the last 100 years. With Liza, Stumpy John, Hector, Charley, Scottie, Naked Jim and Bagel. www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.breakingawayadventures.com/shop/p/mi…-rally-v4 www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew https://womenridersworldrelay.com/ motorcyclesandmisfits.com/shop Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT

  • Podcast 652: Shrimp Burns and Board Track Racing w/Billy Choi

    Podcast 652: Shrimp Burns and Board Track Racing w/Billy Choi
    2025/12/01
    Albert “Shrimp” Burns rose from a teenage mechanic in Oakland to become one of the most feared and beloved racers of the 1910s. Competing on the dangerous wooden motordromes —nicknamed “murderdromes” for their lethal design—he raced in front of crowds of 20,000 spectators at a time when board-track racing was one of America’s most popular sports. By sixteen, Shrimp had become a national celebrity. He rode for both Harley-Davidson and Indian, shattered records, won over crowds, and pushed his body beyond its limits. He died at twenty-two. Much of his history vanished into scattered archives, newspapers, and forgotten race programs. Shrimp: The Albert Burns Story reconstructs his meteoric rise and tragic end using hundreds of primary sources and rare photographs, reviving a lost American icon and the brutal, glamorous world of early motorsports. Author Billy Choi joins us to talk about this much forgotten era of motorcycle racing, and the racers that lived and died for the sport. With Liza, Miss Emma, Stumpy John and Bagel. https://billychoibooks.com/ www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.breakingawayadventures.com/shop/p/mi…-rally-v4 www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew womenridersworldrelay.com/ adifferentagenda.com/products/the-lost-tribe-25 motorcyclesandmisfits.com/shop Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT

    Podcast 651: Fast Way Round w/Ryan F9
    2025/11/24
    16 days and 23 hrs. This is how long it takes to ride around the world, and Ryan has the film to prove it. Departing from the classic Fortnine style videos, Ryan and his team set off to make a world record and a feature length film at the same time. Setting a record like this is not easy. It takes lots of planning, luck and determination. And taking a passenger to film the whole thing doesn't make it easier. Ryan shares stories from this epic trip, including how they figured out how to beat the past record by a whole 3 days. The film, which comes out in December, takes you on the ride with them. You feel the excitement, exhaustion, heat, cold, and hallucinations that they experienced not just through the filming and editing, but also the soundtrack. This is where producing a full length film gives them the opportunity to do more, and let you truly feel like you were there with them. With Liza, Stumpy John, Cat, Neal, Naked Jim and Bagel. https://www.youtube.com/fortnine www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.breakingawayadventures.com/shop/p/mi…-rally-v4 www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew womenridersworldrelay.com/ adifferentagenda.com/products/the-lost-tribe-25 motorcyclesandmisfits.com/shop Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT

    Podcast 650: Replay: Jocelin Snow, Shawn Thomas and the GS Trophy
    2025/11/17
    We are digging back into the past to two of our favorite episodes, and presenting them back to back. In Oct 2017 Jocelin Snow joined us to talk about her experience trying out for the GS Trophy for the first time. We learn about her past as a racer, and all the things that brought her to this point in life where she had become an amazing ADV rider. After making the team and competing in Mongolia (spoiler alert) she came back to the studio with Shawn Thomas (Rock On!) and they told us everything about competing against some of the best ADV riders in the world in the BMW GS Trophy.

  • Podcast 649: Verge Motorcycles; The Future is Here

    Podcast 649: Verge Motorcycles; The Future is Here
    2025/11/10
    Verge Motorcycles are the newest electric motorcycle brand bringing true innovation to the market. They've got a hubless rear wheel motor with 737 ft lbs of torque, and a range of up to 217 miles that will recharge up to 80% in less than 35 minutes. Is the perfect electric bike finally here? Not exactly, but this could be the closest thing so far. In fact, the bikes we test rode today were 2024 models, with the new models and specs being announced this week at EICMA, and many of the small imperfections seemingly have been addressed in the new models. Verge was created by two engineering brothers in Finland, who had a crazy idea to build a motor in a hubless wheel, and this just could be what the future of motorcycles looks like. With Liza, Louisa, Stumpy John, Miss Emma, Rob Day, Neal, Naked Jim and Bagel. https://www.vergemotorcycles.com/ www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.breakingawayadventures.com/shop/p/mi…-rally-v4 www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew womenridersworldrelay.com/ adifferentagenda.com/products/the-lost-tribe-25 motorcyclesandmisfits.com/shop Join our Discord at discord.gg/hpRZcucHCT

    Podcast 647: Blood Bikes and Fake Trikes
    2025/11/03
    Louisa Swaden is back! You may remember her as a land speed racer and an author, but did you know she's also a Blood Bike Rider? These are volunteers who shuttle blood and other supplies between hospitals when it's needed fast. Using their bikes to weave through traffic, they deliver the supplies faster than any car or ambulance can. This leads us to a conversation about other types of service bikes; taxis, first responders, hearses, rangers, rickshaws and more. Let us know if we missed any. Next up we talk about the AI faked new Honda Goldwing Trike Camper that's been making it's way around social media and Youtube. Some of the versions are pretty wild, but some seem look like they just might could work. What do you think? And lastly we read listener emails and answer burning questions.
