This week on our motorcycle podcast we head up to Portland, OR for the 10th anniversary of the One Motorcycle Show. They know how to put on a great event, with motorcycles, mini bike races, vendors, bands, art, food and beer trucks all in an industrial building that use to be a pickle factory. We have such a good time running into old friends and making new friends there. And we can always count on running into other Misfits there too. We got a lot of great interviews with builders like Tim from Muenstermann Builds and J. Shia of Madhouse Motors. We talked to Harlold from Giant Loop and Kevin from Velomacchi, who both make rugged bags for world travel. Then we hear from Dan at Cake, a new electric motorcycle company, and Brandon who's doing amazing things with scooters at the Scooter Swap Shop. We discover a whole new spin on buying accessories with the Biker Gear Club, and talk to Dave who's trying to make the world a better place with his Highway to Health charity. Danger Dan is back to give us his race report from the best race of the night at the flat track races. And of course we throw in our stories and highlights from the weekend. Thanks again to Thor and Tori for putting on such a great event and Amanda at Icon for making our dreams come true.

This week on our motorcycle podcast we're joined by Surj and Fish from CityBike Magazine. Surj had a low speed crash last year that has proved to be a test of his patience and will. He is finally able to walk again, but riding is still not possible. He shares his story of how he's dealt with a long and frustrating healing process. We also hear from Zee, who's back to fill us in on her recovery as well. Turns out having your legs run over by a car can do some damage after all. And since Surj and Fish know a lot about things know little, we get them to explain what's going on with AB1824, and clear up some of the wrong information that's been going around. Surj also fills us in on his investigation on the legitimacy of the MIC's announcement concerning the stats on women riders.

Podcast 290: Crash and Scam Dec 17, 2018

Show notes

This week on our motorcycle podcast we bring to you another crash report. Our own Zee Traveler had a bad spill on the freeway, and her bike was totaled. She's recovering, but we wanted to discuss gear. We learn from Zee's crash that just because you're wearing your gear doesn't mean you're protected. We also talk about what happens to your bike when it gets towed away after an accident. Be careful, because this is a whole other area to be scammed in. We try out a new game where we ask Miss Emma anything at all, and see how well she can answer it. As you might guess, she had in depth knowledge on each and every subject. We finish up with listener emails, and one more crash story. Congratulations to this month's Patreon Prize Pack winner, James Snell. With Liza, Kelley, Miss Emma, Douglas, Henry and Naked Jim.
