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 atEatSleepRIDEwill provide ride data and we'll be posting our progress on the ESR platform. You can follow via the challengeweb site orEastSleepRIDE.
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 tamingthe 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 toBald River Falls via River Road and traveled theCherohala 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 atSierra Nevada Brewing.
