Default new show is a suckfest

Always nice to see new twins, but hard to top Michele's.

Why would I tune in to see some lame chick learning to ride? I already met one in real life. Oh yeah, I already know how to ride.

Who gives a sh** about skateboarders?
How many people do you know who ride HD's also ride skateboards?
How many people do you know who ride skateboards can afford HD's?

Unless the kiddies tune in, this show won't last. I didn't make it 15 minutes and I know I won't go back.

Looked like a continued version of the HD infomercial Route 66 ride on a few weeks back. Younger with an edge type stuff.

I see more commercials everywhere now, TV, web pages, Email banners... in your face everyday

Anyone noticed that Speed is going younger with the Tuner Shows , Low Riders & more glitz but with less technical stuff. Bobbers, chops and bling are targeted towards the younger edgy crowd .... Unfortunately, like all mass marketing these days, unless you need Viagra, Investments or Insurance, if youre over 45 ( Im 57 ) ... ... no one markets to us.

Their Loss

I agree, pretty lame show. Skateboarders, give me a break, and riding lessons, maybe next week Mr. Rogers will make a guest appearance.

My thoughts were that this was an April fools joke. Surely they didn't replace the bimbette with some snot nosed skateboarders. Absolutely no value in this show whatsoever.

Couldn't agree more I think I fell asleep watching it was so uninteresting, and 20 something's affording a HD only if Daddy's buying or they are independantly wealthy.

Was the show with Michelle that bad? I liked Jay working on the scoots doing bolt ons and what not.

We need to get a couple guys like Ewan and Charley types (Long Way Around) on some Harley touring bikes and RIDE from place to place. They can go to all rallies, stop at some of the new parts manufacturers, bike shows, wet t shirt,,,,,,, Well you get the idea!

Ewan and Charley, what a waste of time that was. The first one, Long way down I thought was pretty good but the last one, Long way around really was a LONG waste of my time. I havnt seen the new American Thunder yet but got it on PVR so at least if its as bad as y'all say I can skip alot of crap. Sure am gonna miss michelle and her BIG..... cowboy hats. All the last shows were just a big infomercial for Kurykyn.
