  • Hello from Wisconsin

    Some of my best riding happened when I lived near the ozarks for a two year business project. I also love riding in Wisconsin which is also beautiful. I love listening to your podcast. Since I own a Fat Bob, Indian FTR and a Panamerica I really enjoy the banter on Harley vs Polaris. Keep it coming guys.

  • Good content

    I just found your podcast and it was cool to find a local (I live in Ozark) podcast. Just finished the v-twin one and it answered a lot of my questions as I tied a 2005 fat boy. Keep up the technical stuff it’s very helpful.
