  • Nothing Fancy Review

    Hey guys! I’ve been a long time listener of the podcast. I have only praise for you guys! I’m 48 and have been riding since I was 20, mostly in South Korea where we get the pleasure of riding all year round - or at least I do! In the colder months, most bikes are put away except for the delivery guys and gals! The cold doesn’t hurt anyone. I usually listen on my commute to school as a teacher here in South Korea, which is about an hour.

    I’m raising two daughters, one of which is now 8 and we’v... more

  • I'm sad, five stars.

    I'm positively distraught, after listening to you guys for many a 10 hour shift, I've finally caught up and listened to all the episodes. You guys made it feel like I was sitting around with my buddies talking about motorcycles all day while I slogged my day through work. Excellent podcast, I'm probably going to start at the beginning again, thank you for keeping me company.

  • Great inspiring pod

    This is one of the most consistently listenable pods in my list of dozens and dozens. These guys wear their excitement on their sleeves for motorcycles. They are true gearheads with tons of knowledge to share without ever getting snobby (or weird) like most motorcycle pods these days do. It's all about the love for engineering and passing on their years of experience, while staying open-minded but honest about emerging technology and what works and doesn't. I learn something every time I listen.... more

  • Informative and fun motopodcast

    Greetings from Holland! I absolutely love this podcast! Every week, I used to look forward to a new episode of Zack’s Daily Rider on YouTube. I then started to notice the Highside/Lowside series. I was hooked after the first episode I listened to. Having this as podcasts on my iPhone makes my ride to and from work so much more enjoyable! The banter between Zack and Spurgeon is great and there is so much knowledge being shared. Keep it up, guys!

  • Inspired a rider and a (un?)healthy obsession

    You guys helped me make the jump to purchase a motorcycle 2 years ago now, a little yamaha sr400. Only two months later I purchased a 1977 XS750D that I know endlessly tinker with. The SR400 is gone and I daily ride a DR650 that I’ve spent probably too much money on modding, but I love it. My brothers and I have dreamed about taking a motorcycle road trip together since we were younger and someday we’ll make it happen. I appreciate the feeling of community you guys create!
