Harrison and Tayler met Luke and Kyle early in the 2023 riding season. The four of them got along instantly. Over the summer they attended events together, worked on their bikes and even purchased a couple of Harley-Davidson motorcycles. This is a common story for motorcycle enthusiasts to meet other riders with similar interests. People become friends, often those friendships last for life.We thought it important to capture this group's first riding season together. If you have some extra time, relax and enjoy as Harrison leads his first podcast in conversation with his crew.

You have to respect people who pour their heart and soul into planning the events we all enjoy attending. Lee Sipes is one of those folks. His passion for choppers, bobbers and all other types of motorcycles has energized him to plan the first annual Bad Livin' Roadshow for July 19 to 21 2024 in Durham, Ontario.

Lee believes the community needs a Canadian event that isn't just a one day ride in then ride out event. His vision is for an event with camping, activities, and vendors where people can settle in for a few days of partying and socializing. The time and effort required to pull together an event like this is far beyond what most of us are willing to do ... especially when trying to work full time. Thank goodness Lee doesn't know better than to give this a shot.

Karen and I will be making the trip to Durham with the Sportster in tow. I hate to be a pussy and trailer my bike, but vacation time is limited and we need to make the trip to Ontario several times in 2024. We're looking forward to making lots of new friends in Ontario this summer.

Join us as Lee and I sit down for a conversation about who Lee Sipes is, why he has taken on the Bad Livin' Roadshow and what he expects the event to be.

Looking for someone positive and enthusiastic who will make you feel good about life and yourself? Kirt is your man.  This guy is has such a great outlook on things he is just a real pleasure to be around. Kirt can take a situation most would consider a disaster and see only the good that came from it.

This unique perspective spills over into his creativity. Kirt sees beautiful art in corroded old parts at the swap meet that will make the next build something really special. The rust blisters and faded paint on a gas tank aren't undesirable, they're history to be valued and appreciated.  This makes his work fluid, changing with each new find to become something slightly different than planned, but always better than planned.

Kirt's life is full and rich. Not rich in terms of mega wealth rather rich in family, friends and experience. When asked about his favourite piece in his collection Kirt explains it is the '64 Impala on the lift not because of its rarity or its value. It's because his kids helped him sand and prep it, kind of a family project. Kirt's humble beginnings have given him a solid grasp of what is truly valuable in this world.

Please join me as I sit down with the man, the builder, the legend ... Mr. Kirt Mohammed of Dirty Kustomz.

Harrison and Bruce sit down with Patrick Lambie of Inside Motorcycles and Luke Shaw of Web Caddy to discuss the current situation of marketing and advertising in the motorcycle industry.

Motorcycle shows featuring new models from all the manufacturers have lost the support of many manufacturers after learning from the experience of the pandemic that the expense of participation in these shows did not provide a significant return. In some cases there was no difference in sales when the shows were forced to close. The rider community appears to be more focused on events and shows featuring local businesses and organizations. Bike nights have grown in popularity and it is expected they will be even more popular in 2024.

Digital media has seen tremendous growth while traditional print or hard copy media has experienced loss in revenue and loss of publications. Social media marketing is hardly new though it seems we are apt the frontier of social media advertising. While the insights and statistics for digital media activity are abundant and comprehensive the application and effects of digital advertising are not always well understood or easily analyzed.

We ask Luke and Patrick some tough questions trying to find a clear path forward. Their answers and perspectives are enlightening and encouraging.

Please join us for this humorous, informative and candid conversation with a couple of great guests.

Precision Frameworx has been in business for almost 25 years. It is foundational in the custom motorcycle industry not only in Calgary, but across North America. Brent Robertson started Precision Frameworx in 1999. Brent has been the propulsion behind Precision Frameworx as well as the guidance system through trends, fads, and the economic roller coaster Alberta has ridden since the discovery of oil. Brent has always been able to adjust his vision to the environment of the time without losing sight of the horizon.

As Precision Frameworx and its sister company Thug Motorcycles begin a new chapter in the Brent Robertson legacy, Brent gives us the honour of being on the leading edge of the story with much undisclosed news. Speed & Kolor is excited for Brent and his entire team as Precision Frameworx continues to innovate and develop industry changing products that are sure to keep Precision Frameworx on the custom motorcycle world stage.

Please join Mac and Bruce as we sit down right in the Research and Development shop of Precision Frameworx for an enlightening conversation with the man himself, Brent Robertson.
