Hello from the V-Twin Cafe here in sunny Cranford, New Jersey. Here the temperature is always 72 on the continual sunny days unless if you are in Tim's studio where the air conditioning has it cranked up to 85.  From here in the corner booth we bring you our silliness that is Brothers on Bikes, The Motorcycle Men.

Today, Tim rubs his pipe, Chris hangs a bag and I kill a battery.... Fun listening today.

Wonderful fun stuff, we had a fan..... of sorts.... in the studio with us keeping us moderately sweaty as we discussed our week and what little riding we did.  We had the death of the battery in my Heritage Classic and one of Chris's saddle bags nearly fall off.... the work of Gremlins no doubt.  We briefly discuss the weather for the upcoming week and determine that our departure for Americade could be in the form of storms and drippy stuff from the sky. Regardless, we are going and have a week of amazing activities planned.  Lots of food to eat and a boatload of miles to put in.  We will be doing short podcasts from our hotel room and hope to get some good interviews.

The bike spec comparisons of the week were nothing less than amazing.  We had the KTM Super Adventure, Indian Scout, Keanu Reeves' ARCH KRGT-1 and the Can-Am Spyder FS.  We even talked the Polaris Slingshot for a short time too.  Great bikes to look over and get an idea of what the rest of the world is doing.

More than all of that.... a huge tip of the helmet from the Motorcycle Men to all of our service men and women past, present and future who serve our great nation and have served.  We owe you nothing less than our eternal gratitude for the sacrifice of your lives for our great nation.

And of course a sincere thank you to all of our fans and friends who take the time to listen to our nutty show.  Thank you.

See you all at Americade next week!!

Ride Safe!

Ted
