Jessy Nelson | Swapmoto Live Podcast Ep. 27 Apr 19, 2019

Show notes

There are some people that you feel good after hanging out with, and Jessy Nelson is certainly one of those guys. Though he was paralyzed in a motocross racing crash a few years ago, he has continued to live his best life and is satisfying his competitive nature on four wheels these days. We sat with Nelson and caught up about a lot of things, including a recent surgery he had that has shown some promising results in only a matter of weeks. This one is a good listen!

Jeremy McGrath on the 6D Helmets Kickstart Podcast Apr 15, 2019

Show notes

The Denver Supercross yielded some great racing in both classes and some wild weather conditions. Seven-time Supercross Champion Jeremy McGrath joins Donn Maeda and Michael Antonovich to bench race and shoot the poop about the sport in general in this week's installation of the Kickstart Podcast, presented by 6D Helmets.

Alex Ray on the 6D Helmets Kickstart Podcast Apr 08, 2019

Show notes

With the first-ever Nashville Supercross in the record books, we thought it would be fitting to have hometown racer Alex Ray join us for this week's Kickstart Podcast presented by 6D Helmets. Having grown up only a couple hours away from Music City, ARay was stoked for the race in front of his friends and family.

Wil Hahn | Swapmoto Live Podcast Ep. 26 Apr 05, 2019

Show notes

Monster Energy/Star Racing/Yamaha Team Manager Wil Hahn had quite the Saturday in Houston last weekend, as his riders Dylan Ferrandis and Colt Nichols both landed on the podium in the 250 class. For Ferrandis, it was his second win in a row and he pulled within five points of the championship points lead with only two races left. Hahn has always been a favorite of ours, from his days as a racer and now as a Team Manager, and he is always fun to catch up with. Hahn joins us for a fun and informative podcast this week. Enjoy!

Nick Wey on the 6D Helmets Kickstart Podcast Apr 02, 2019

Show notes

6D Helmets brings you the Kickstart Podcast, in which we will bench race about the weekend's happenings. Last weekend was a wild one in Houston at the third Triple Crown of the season, and our friend Nick Wey was glad to join us to chat about the goings on inside NRG Stadium. As Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki rider Adam Cianciarulo's personal riding coach, Wey had some great insight about AC's not-so-great luck in Houston. Later in the show, we were joined by two special guests; Vincent and Donovan Wey. Enjoy!

2019 Editions Shootout | Track Tested Show w Broc Tickle Apr 01, 2019

Show notes

In 2019, consumers have the chance to own something truly special when it comes to motocross machinery. Three manufacturers - Honda, Husqvarna, and KTM - produce special edition versions of their popular 450 motocross bikes that offer greater value and performance than the standard versions. We gathered the 2019 Honda CRF450R Works Edition, the 2019.5 Husqvarne Rockstar Edition FC 450, and the 2019.5 KTM 450 SX0F Factory Edition machines, and compared them back to back with a testing crew of four riders of varying size, age, and skill. While Broc Tickle brought the star power, the testing experience shared by Editor in Chief Donn Maeda and Senior Test Rider Pat Foster, plus 20-year testing veteran Kyle Puerner helped round out the panel for this comprehensive comparison.

Ryan Villopoto on the 6D Helmets Kickstart Podcast Mar 25, 2019

Show notes

We're branching out and adding a new podcast show to the Swapmoto Live catalog. The Kickstart Podcast will happen at the start of every week and will review the past weekend's racing action and/or cover the upcoming week's activities. Hosted by SML editors Donn Maeda and Michael Antonovich, we'll invite a different guest to co-host with us each week. And what better way to kick off a new show than with the one and only Ryan Villopoto? Enjoy!

Cameron McAdoo | Swapmoto Live Podcast Presented by Ogio Ep. 25 Mar 21, 2019

Show notes

Iowa's Cameron McAdoo is in his third year as a professional Supercross racer, and he is nipping at his first 250 SX podium finish. One of the nicest, most humble personalities in pro racing, the GEICO Honda racer is ready to get back to racing this weekend in Seattle as the Western Regional 250 SX Championship resumes. We caught up with McAdoo to chat about the races, his modest beginnings in the sport, and of course, about mountain biking.

Jeff Ward | Swapmoto Live Podcast Presented by Ogio Ep.24 Mar 05, 2019

Show notes

Jeff Ward is an absolute legend of our sport. The seven-time motocross and Supercross Champion has won championships in every division and discipline at least once: 125, 250, and 500 MX, and well as 250 Supercross. Along with Johnny O'Mara and David Bailey, Wardy helped elevate the fitness levels in professional racing to all-new levels in the 1980s and 90s. After his career in moto was done, Ward went on to enjoy success in professional mountain bike racing, Indy Car, and Supermoto. Now, at the age of 57, Ward will throw his hat into the ring in the American Flat Track Series at selected TT events. And we won't be surprised to see him on the podium! We've seen Wardy in action with a steel shoe, and he flies!

To say that I was thrilled to have the AMA Hall of Famer join me in the Medterra Podcast studio today for a chat would be an understatement. Please enjoy this awesom trip down memory lane, and more!

Special thanks to Ogio, Scott Motosports, RynoPower, Throttle Syndicate, Intense Cycles, Roy's Cyclery, Bell Helmets and Toyota of Escondido Action Sports.

Chad Reed | Swapmoto Live Podcast presented by OGIO Ep.23 Feb 28, 2019

Show notes

Disclaimer! This episode's recording was never intended to be a podcast, as I conducted a 30-minute phone interview with Chad Reed for a written feature on Swapmotolive.com. Several readers, however, requested a podcast version. The audio quality is not great as we were on the phone, but the content makes it worth a listen. Chad Reed is one of the legends in our sport and he is always a pleasure to catch up with.
