In this follow-up to one of our most popular episodes, I sit down again with Jozsef James “JJ,” Head of Sales for North America at Verge Motorcycles — the Finnish innovators behind the world-famous hubless “donut” wheel.

If Episode 1 was about the ride, this one is about everything behind the ride:

🔥 Verge’s full model lineup

🔥 What’s different between the TS, TS Pro, and TS Ultra

🔥 Real tech breakdown: torque, software, battery, and the hubless motor

🔥 Availability in the U.S. and global expansion

🔥 How reservations work (and what people don’t know)

🔥 How YOU can get a test ride and where

🔥 The vision for Verge’s future + what’s coming next

We recorded this inside The Bike Shed Los Angeles, and this time JJ takes us deeper into the machine, the engineering, and the strategy behind bringing a $40,000+ electric superbike to market.

If you’re curious about the tech, the business, or how to actually get one — Part 2 gives you the full roadmap.

In this episode of Ride Boundless, I sit down with Jozsef James “JJ”, Head of Sales for North America at Verge Motorcycles, the innovative Finnish company redefining the electric superbike.

Recorded at The Bike Shed Los Angeles, we dive deep into Verge’s revolutionary engineering — from its futuristic hubless “donut” rear wheel to its 240mm tire, over 200 miles of range, and the smooth, gliding ride that feels more like floating than riding.

JJ shares his personal journey from Lucid Motors to leading Verge’s U.S. expansion, bringing his EV expertise and passion for innovation to the forefront of two-wheel evolution.

I also take the Verge for a test ride through LA’s streets — and it’s unlike anything I’ve ever ridden. The acceleration, suspension, and precision balance make this bike feel alive.

In this inspiring episode of the Ride Boundless Podcast, I welcome back Shannon Albright — filmmaker, motorcyclist, and founder of the Beverly Hills Motorcycle Club.

Since her first appearance on the show, Shannon has been busy making waves both on and off two wheels. Her documentary 2500 Miles — which follows her solo ride from Los Angeles to Selma, Alabama — has now been submitted and has already received 32 awards worldwide.

But Shannon’s impact doesn’t stop with film. On November 2nd, she’s organizing a powerful new ride with the Beverly Hills Motorcycle Club to support veterans in local hospitals. After learning that many veterans were missing even the most basic essentials like underwear, socks, pajamas, and slippers, Shannon decided to take action. Now, she’s rallying the motorcycle community to show up by the hundreds, bringing donations and compassion to those who served.

From winning film festivals to building a movement that blends motorcycles, charity, and community, Shannon Albright continues to prove what’s possible when passion meets purpose.
