CALL JAY! http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/mcy/2704267397.html

Heather, the winner of our Adventure Coffee contest has put her prize to good use and sent us pictures. Not of her wiping her bum, ya pervs! Better! Well, OK, maybe not better-better, but better-as-good-as-you’re-gonna-get-ya-perv. What do you do when you got a roll of toilet paper and a shiny new Ducati Multistrada? Click to embiggen!

Battle!

The Thrill of Victory!

The Agony of Being You!

Nicely done, Heather. If we hadn’t just sent you a prize that we paid for… we’d probably send you a prize. Howbout some Hot Tamales? ADVENTURE CANDY! :D

BMW ADVENTURE SCOOTERS! Well, maybe not Adventure… but they’re scooters. And they look suspiciously like… someone else’s scooters…

“The All New BMW Bur-C-600-zuki-Man-RR”

Think we’re kidding? Peep out the genuine articles on BMW’s site: http://www.bmwmotorcycles.com/us/en/urban_mobility/k18/k18_overview.html

Don’t forget about our official Wheelnerds Disorganized Unpaid Correspondent Program. Basically, we want to hear some stuff from you! Ridden a bike (like your own) and got an opinion? Got a cool piece of gear or farkle? Got a story? Know some jokes? Record an MP3 (or whatever) and email it to us at wheelnerds@gmail.com. We’ll throw it on the air and talk about it, too. That’s right, you can be the first on your block to be openly mocked by the Wheelnerds. Alternatively, you could call our google talk # to the right there and leave us a message if you’ve got no way to record something. Or, even cooler, (to me, anyway), you can now also leave us a voicemail via Skype! Our skype ID iswheelnerds. Just go ahead, call, and leave us your story there! (We still read your emails, too, and will answer them on the show). If you got something really cool, shoot us a line and maybe we’ll talk to you live, too.

As always, you can listen to the episode above or download direct here:

Ep 28: Chuck Has to Go!

18 Nov


Episode roundup for this week: Thanks to Franca for sending in the intro. Do like she does, guys. Don’t just send us a sound of your machine. You have to say something, too. Even something as simple as “You’re listening to the Wheelnerds!” That’ll make it a lot more likely your bike ends up in the front of the show.

Our Classifieds of the week:

RAIDER NATION: http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/mcy/2686214319.html

ADVENTURE SEGWAY: http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/mcy/2679451205.html

What we’re watching this week:

Jay Leno’s Helmet Vid: http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/video/arai-helmets/283819/

Our Guest For the Week:

(Ghazi in his natural state)

Ghazi Farooq of Teiz Motorsports (http://store.teizms.com/)

They produce a pretty nice line of one and two piece suits at a nice price. Chuck wears the Lombard V3 seen below (and Todd’s rocking his Olympia but who knows for how much longer after talking to Ghazi)

Ghazi fills us in on a lot of interesting stuff, like how well his new suits will hold up when you’re participating in civil unrest. What dual-sport helmet goes best with teargas? If you’ve ever wondered (like us) who the guy behind all the Teiz posts on ADV was, well, here’s your chance to hear the man himself.

Final bonus pic:

The new fairing on the Ural. Todd’s prepared to ride ADVENTURE COLD.

No pictures of the Buell because it’s in the shop.
Again.

Chuck can’t have nice things.
