The MotoAlliance Podcast

Arctic Cat racer extraordinaire, Richard Carter joins us to share what it has been like to be a group director for an Arctic Cat riders club. Leading group rides across the U.S., the group rallies together with open arms and welcomes newcomers to a community who are "family by choice".

Peter and Kevin meet back up with Minnesota's own Dean Schliek who shares reflections on the past riding season - the ups and downs and preparations for the winter riding season.

The word "practice" is not in his vocabulary. When he rolls onto the dirt, it is game on! Always an exciting ride talking with Kurt Driemeyer of Offroad Armor and longtime friend of MotoAlliance. We learned about the racing circuit and that a broken machine does not mean the end to a days' riding, just a quick repair job before the pedal is down and the next lap begins.

Peter and Kevin are joined by a longtime friend of MotoAlliance, Ben Mooers of the MN ATV riders. We sent Ben a special HIGHLANDS project to test for us and this conversation was his response. It was so fun to hear the initial thoughts about the new HIGHLANDS Day Box.

Mark Smith of MLS Powersports joins Peter and discusses the longtime shared relationship in the offroad world alongside personal journeys' of family and faith. A partner of MotoAlliance from the early days, the relationship between Moto and MLS came about through business but is rooted in deep friendship.

Calling in on Mountain Time, Bud Bruening joins Peter and Kevin in the studio sharing about the riding community of the West. High precipitation in the winter months means some roads are still impassable. Or are they...? Summer months means playtime in the mountains and the Utah community knows how to show up for some fun!

Join Dave Halsey's conversation on the MotoAlliance Podcast as he takes Peter and Kevin behind the curtain of the offroad world, sharing about legislation, safety guidelines, and how the face of "offroad" has changed through the years. Dave is a longtime member of the community and has worked with Polaris along and a number of other offroad companies. He brings his rich understanding of the community to his current position as the Communication Director for ATV MN.

Visiting his humble beginnings in the offroad industry, he is now the founder and owner of Off Road Body Armor. A pleasure to listen to, Kurt takes pride in valuing his customers because tomorrow, "you'll be on the trail sharing a beer together".

Dean Schliek joins Peter and Kevin on the MotoAlliance podcast sharing an update about Ride the Shore and campout level enthusiasm for the arrival of the new Polaris Expedition.
