Join us for a chat with Charley Boorman from the Long Way moto-travel series. The latest edition Long Way Home is out now on Apple TV and this time Charley and Ewen are on vintage bikes—Ewan a 74 Moto Guzzi Eldorado and Charley on a R 75/5. Though we don’t give away much of how the bikes did in this interview, it’s safe to assume the /5 represented itself quite well and Charley has a pointed comment on how the 247 stacked up against the Guzzi.

Stephan Gaulin the man behind Toaster Tan is with us this week. As with the Daniel May interview last time, we’ve got a lot to cover with Stephan so no guest hosts. We'll dig into the ideas and concepts behind his top braces and how those can improve your riding experience along with some fascinating stories about some bikes he currently owns…enjoy!

On the program this week AHRMA Executive Director and /5 racer Daniel May. We’re devoting the entire program to Daniel this week so no guest hosts, just straight racing and airhead talk for your listening enjoyment.

Scroll down for a link to the video series discussed in this podcast.

Katie Hunter is back with us. In this week's Moto She Wrote, Katie remembers a well loved and trusted mechanic in New Brunswick, affectionately known as Charlie on the Mountain.

Seroj Terian is an independent mechanic and vintage bike enthusiast. He recently built and sold a very well executed R100 scrambler that sold on BaT—(we’ve got a link to that for you) so we’ll dig into that bike and discuss his work and experience with old bikes, in general and the volunteer work he does, which is quite remarkable, as well.

Katie Hunter joins us with Moto She Wrote essay entitled "Old Dog, New Tricks" where she recounts obtaining her motorcycle license in New Brunswick, Canada.

In this episode we remember Robert Fleischer, who most of us knew as Snowbum. His selfless contributions, as much as anyone in the airhead community, have helped keep these bikes relevant and on the road.

We are happy to bring you some insight and commentary on Robert from some familiar voices here on the program including, Matt Parkhouse, Robert Sabel, George Thomas, Ted Porter, Duck Koch, Greg Hutchenson, Mac Kirkpatrick, Anton Largiader and Upe Fluckinger.

I know I speak for all of us when we simply say….Thank you, Robert.
