Summary: Wow, This turned into one great show. As always we start off our motorcycle podcast by talking about riding them. While Larry only got out on a short ride, he was able to travel up to Tahoe to hear his sons’ band play. Kevin on the other hand was able to get in around 160 miles over the weekend, he had plans for more but decided to not travel down gravel roads in the middle of nowhere alone.<br> Movie Review:<br><br> CHIPS – Kevin was able to catch the movie CHIPS, overall he recommends you not pay to see it by yourself unless crude humor is what you enjoy, however the riding and motorcycles are really where this movie shines.<br> New Giveaway:<br><br> This week we welcome a new sponsor<a href="http://Ciro3D.com"> Ciro 3D</a>.

High points are:<br> <br> * Anticipating that Indian will come out with more modern styled bikes to appeal to younger riders.<br> * Indian will continue the race programs of Victory, including Isle of Man TT and Pike’s peak<br> * Indian will be coming out with a new electric bike designed more for cruising than commuting<br> * Indian plans to expand into other markets such as far East and Europe with new, smaller displacement bikes<br> * Indian plans to design bikes based on their experience with smaller V-twin such as their flat racer, but not the actual bike itself as it is a race only model.<br> <br> Paddock:<br><br> Another 1-2 for Indian. Bryan smith this time over Jarod Mees. Harley factory 6th. The older Harley xr750r non factory harley did finish 3rd, ridden by Sammy Halbert. Readers comments suggest the new factory Harley’s don’t have enough power to compete with the Indians. Kenny Coolberth finished 6th in the factory Harley xg750r.
