RIDE AND TALK - THE BMW MOTORRAD PODCAST

Coming up on today’s BMW Motorrad Ride and Talk Podcast: The challenges, the necessary skills, and the joy of being an exceptional motorcycle riding instructor. Take a listen! While at the BMW Riders Association Rally in the USA, we sat down in front of a live audience with Aaron Rankin, Ricardo Rodriguez, and Melinda Justice, all senior instructors at the BMW Performance Center in Greer, South Carolina. Together we discussed many aspects of motorcycle coaching, emerging technologies, changing demographics, and the importance of coaches being students as often as possible, so the experience of learning something new is always fresh in a coach’s mind.

Recently we found ourselves in Germany, and had a chance to spend several days in the city of Berlin. Now like any big city, there are a LOT of motorcycles. And where there are so many motorcycles, there is a need. A need to store bikes, a need to work on bikes, and of course the desire to meet like minded people. Enter Craftwerk Berlin, a community garage and co-working space that allows people to store, service and learn about their bikes, all with other riders and enthusiasts that share a passion for all things motorcycle. We sat down with Craftwerk founders Michael, Catee and Max, and talked about the unique space that they have created, as well as their involvement in electric motorcycles and that the future holds for urban mobility, the combustion engine, and the bright and interesting future of 2 wheeled vehicles.

It takes a special kind of commitment to ride a motorcycle, and that is especially true when we ride internationally. But Jess and Greg Stone took this a step further, and brought Moxie along for the ride. Weighing in at over 34 Kilos, Moxie is a large German Shepard that has logged thousands of kilometers on the back of Jesses motorcycle. While on their international adventure, Jess, Greg and Moxie stopped by our United States Studio in California and shared with us what it’s like to travel the world on motorcycles, with their 4-legged companion on the back.
