26: A Near Miss, Porsche World Roadshow, and New Harleys!

In this episode we welcome Rico back from his vacation, recharged and ready to rock the show.  Rico returns with a bang and the guys get right into talking about a day riding in the mounts.  Rich jumped on a rented Street Glide for the occasion to have some Bro-Time and we mix conversation from Rico's attendance of an Indian / Victory Demo days event.TOPICS:Rico gave the guys a little review of his vacation with his wife Wendy to Costa Rica.Rich and Rico talk about their meet up and day ride through Caesars head, Brevard (The Square Root Restaurant), Sierra Nevada Brewing, Lake Lure, and OMB as the final stop.Rico attended and Indian / Victory demo eventChief Vintage - Bike was OK, but front felt heavy and didn't like the windshield due to height and his size.  Had a rock fly up over windshield and hit his helmet.Chief Dark Horse with stage 1 tuning - Rico was blown off the seat and not due to the lack of windshield and back rest, but the stage 1 tuned motor.  All that power and overall feel of the bike, put a smile on his face.Springfield - New bike for 2016 and Rico liked this one as much as the Chieftain. Scout - Fun bike, but was unable to hit the red line (9,000) and Rico's wife Wendy likes it and can see this being her first bike.Scout Sixty - OK bike, nice package for a first bike or perhaps if you intend to only ever buy one, this may fit your bill.  Rico would say go with the Scout over the Scout Sixty for him or Wendy.Victory Magnum - Sees why Rich likes the bike.  Instrument panel is further away from you when compared to Indian bikes.  It still has a good amount of wind buffeting.  Bike is very fast and corners well.  Overall Rico really enjoyed the bike, and would add it to his stable if he had the funds!  Also, Rico labels the bike as the Cadillac due to performance and smooth ride, whereas the Indian is more Lincoln plush and comfy.  :)Events:Upcoming events that one or more Loud Pipes! members plan on attending: Moto Vlogging Meetup - May 20th-22nd.12th Annual Barber Vintage Festival (October 7th-9th, 2016)Visit RDubStudios.com/donate if you would like to support and help us improve the show or better yet visit our Patreon page where your contribution will help us achieve our goals and there are rewards for you at different pledge levels.Running time: 1 hour 29 minutes 34 secondsQuestions or comments: feedback@rdubstudios.com or the Feedback pageSupport Loud Pipes!

151: New or Used, That is the Question

The boys are back...  After wrapping up our interviews from Atlanta we are back to our normal show format.  The guys talk about the Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge, the first Loud Pipes Ride, Road Hogs III ride, Atlanta trip recap, and some news.Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge: We are going to have a little challenge between the Motorcycle Men, Throttled, and Loud Pipes.  The goal of this challenge is to encourage riding on a consistent bases and will award the podcast team that averages the most points over the month of August.  To help with the challenge the team at EatSleepRIDE will provide ride data and we'll be posting our progress on the ESR platform.  You can follow via the challenge web site or EastSleepRIDE.First Loud Pipes Ride:  The guys joined up on June 24th and took a little ride from Blacksburg, SC to Little Switzerland, NA and back to Charlotte, NC.  This was a nice 300 mile trip that included the Diamonback (NC 226a).  Plan was to do the Devil's Whip, but thanks to Apple Maps we ended up riding the Diamondback a second time.   Road Hogs III Ride:  Rico was the only member of the Loud Pipes team to make the trip.  He talked about the ride and taming the snake.  We are planning to have another round table with the Road Hogs crew.   Atlanta Recap:  We talk about getting out of Atlanta and our trip to Tellico Plains, TN for the MotoVloggers meetup.  The riding was a great time, but the weather sucked as it rained on and off most of the day.  The group went to Bald River Falls via River Road and traveled the Cherohala Skyway.  Around mid afternoon the Loud Pipes Crew split from the MotoVloggers due to a long weekend from the Atlanta trip.  On the trip back to Charlotte the guys made a pit stop at Sierra Nevada Brewing.Check out the MotoVloggers from the meetup:Cruiser BrewserWolf's WorldRouge MogulAmp'd MotoBacon's Broken BitsSam SmithMatthew Williams - was planing on making it but had motorcycle break down on ride out.News:Harley announces an all new bike for flat track racing, first all new design in 44 yearsIndian announces plans to take on Harley in flat track racingVictory and S&amp;S Cycle announce new performance camsHarley confirmed the LiveWire in the next 5 years.  That will be 7 years after Rich and Rico rode the prototype.  Hear and see our ride here: loudpipes.net/3Events:Upcoming events that one or more Loud Pipes! members plan on attending: Moto Vlogging Meetup Makeup - July 15th-17nd.12th Annual Barber Vintage Festival (October 7th-9th, 2016)If you enjoy the show, want to keep it AD free, and receive generous rewards for your contribution, check out our donation page loudpipes.net/donate.  Patreon is our focus and is an ongoing support model.  There is also a link for one time donations and support of any size is greatly appreciated.Running time: 1 hour 24 minutes 30 secondsQuestions or comments: feedback@rdubstudios.com or the Feedback pageSupport Loud Pipes!
