Throttle Talk: Episode 13 –

In this episode of Throttle Talk, we hit the road and land at Lapeer Bike Night for a damn good time with the crew from Thunder Roads Magazine Michigan. Big Yeti shares what it was like judging the bike show, the standouts, and the weird ones. And yes, Mrs. Yeti was in the mix too, bringing her own spice to the scene.

We also give you a heads-up on what’s coming next, including our upcoming dinner rides and the Sun Gave All ride that hits heavy and means something real. Plus, we toss out a few updates on the future of Ride with Purpose and what’s brewing behind the scenes.

Raw stories, real moments, and the kind of energy that only comes from a road full of bikes and a night full of throttle. Tune in and ride with us.

Throttle Talk with Big Yeti – Episode 12: “Updates & More”

In this episode of Throttle Talk, Big Yeti from Ride with Purpose rolls into Episode 12 with updates, stories, and real talk straight from the saddle. We dive into the Farming Biker’s 3rd Annual Mystery Ride, where good people, great roads, and a surprise destination brought the community together once again. We also highlight an epic bike night in Buckley at the Roadside Bar that had everything you’d want from a northern Michigan summer evening.

Yeti gets personal too, opening up about some behind-the-scenes struggles and life updates that hit close to home. It’s honest, unscripted, and straight from the heart—just how we like it.

Tune in for laughs, brotherhood, and a reminder that riding with purpose means showing up, on and off the bike.

Throttle Talk: Top 10 Motorcycle Destinations in Michigan

In this episode of Throttle Talk, Big Yeti dives into the Top 10 Motorcycle Destinations in Michigan, as chosen by the real ones in the Northern Michigan Bikers Facebook Group.

From the lake hugging curves of M22 to the deep forest stretches of H58, this list ain’t from a travel blog. It’s built from the throttle happy wisdom of bikers who’ve lived it, loved it, and got the bugs in their teeth to prove it.

We’ll hit up iconic routes like US41, the Tunnel of Trees, and even shine a spotlight on gems like the old school gas station in Breckenridge and Benny the bearded fisher in Germfask.

This episode is raw, unfiltered, and full of soul, just like the rides we live for.

So crank it up and ride with purpose. Michigan is calling.

Throttle Talk – Episode 8: Shifting Gears

In this episode, Big Yeti opens up about some personal changes happening behind the scenes—life, priorities, and what it means to keep riding with purpose when the road throws you a curve. We also drop some big news: a new deal in the works that’s aimed squarely at supporting the veteran community. It’s not just a win for us—it’s a move we hope helps a lot of folks who’ve served.

Real talk, real change, and a mission that keeps growing. Strap in.

Brotherhood runs deeper than the patch. In this video, we dive into what true brotherhood means in the biker world — the loyalty, the connection, and the purpose that comes with it. Featuring stories about my club brother, Brother Mook, and our brothers up in Traverse City, this isn’t just about riding — it’s about building something real.

From late-night rides to the kind of support that saves lives, we talk about how this bond impacts our mental health and keeps us grounded when life gets heavy. This is for every rider who knows the road is better when it’s shared — and for those looking to find something more in the miles.
