  • I forget how great these are.

    I typically listen to podcasts when touring so there are months at a time when I don’t listen.

    The shows are always interesting and informative. I also like the urban street riding focus, versus an international adventure riding focus of other pods. Both are enjoyable. His are just a nice switch.

  • Great convo!

    What an interesting conversation between 2 great dudes. I'm a fan of Alonzo's comedy, and have worked with Len in the digital advertising space, and I learned a lot about the thrill of their shared passion for riding. Great stuff!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Take the Ticket, Fight It Later
Q: Can you give a sense of whether it's cheaper to handle a ticket yourself or hire a lawyer?
In NYC, the guest charges a flat fee per stop (not per ticket), and for moving violations in NYC it's usually worth having a lawyer since the process and chance of a favorable outcome improve with professional help, especially when multiple tickets are involved.
The Toll Trap: How to Cut Your Fines by Up to 80% with Omar Alam
Q: How do clients typically interact with you—phone or online?
We operate primarily online to gather information and then use calls as needed; the process is designed to be seamless and less combative, with most steps initiated digitally.
The Toll Trap: How to Cut Your Fines by Up to 80% with Omar Alam
Q: What makes someone eligible for an 80% reduction, and how consistent is that across agencies?
The common denominator is extenuating circumstances and dependence; reductions are possible but vary widely by agency, with the MTA generally more lenient than others.
The Toll Trap: How to Cut Your Fines by Up to 80% with Omar Alam
Q: Let me ask you this, what is the typical process when a client comes to you with thousands in tolls?
We start by gathering all information, verify balances, check for any suspensions, determine if it's personal or business, and then approach the toll authorities to negotiate a plan or reduction, often moving toward a payment plan with the MTA.
A Million Miles and More Smiles with Iron Butt Champ, Wendy Crockett
Q: What role does training play in staying safe on such rides?
Continual training across on-road, off-road, and even emergency response or police courses broadens toolkits and improves decision-making under stress.
