The Wheelnerds

The Wheelnerds kick off 2012 by phoning this one in. Literally. Chuck's down with Adventure Flu and Todd won't break quarantine. We open the lines for people to call, but only one man is man enough to brave catching flu with Intrawebs: Jorge!

We end 2011 with a bang by talking with Ted Simon, author of Jupiter's Travels (and others). Ted traveled the globe in 1973 on a 500cc Triumph Tiger 100, covering 64,000 miles over 4 years. He's like the Godfather and Buddha of adventure motorcycling.

Part 2 of our talk with author and AMA hall-of-famer David Hough. More stories, still scary.

We have author and AMA hall-of-famer David Hough to talk motorcycle safety. Turns out he's a very scary man.

Clip show! This is a random collection of stuff from the floor of the editing room.

This week we're talking with Roger Pioszak of Cariboucases.com. They take the nigh-indestructible Pelican boxes and make motorcycle luggage out of them. He also turns out a mean manpurse!

Post turkey, the Wheelnerds talk some random stuff. Chuck finds some spam about BMW's new scooters in his mailbox. Todd talks about riding in the winter more. We answer some mail. And we got some pics!

Another guest joins the guys! We're having on Ghazi Farooq of Teiz Motorsports, the makers of one and two piece suits. Ghazi's pretty active in the online communities and he comes to talk with us about the company and what goes into making his products. Turns out he's a hell of a salesman, too.

This week in the cave, we've got Darryl Cannon aka KILLBOY. He's that guy that takes all the super cool pictures of people riding the Dragon.

We interview Claude Stanley of CStanley Motorsports. He speciailizes in sidecars, sidecars, sidecards! You can imagine how Todd reacts to this. Also, Jeff Katzer sends up in a report on a good local shop. Listener email. Bad classifieds. The works.
