Default The new american thunder tv show

Saw the new show last night only caught half of it hopefully the changes are going in the direction of true bike information and not one big infomercial we need good bike shows.

I think they are missing their market again....most HD's sold are baggers and to those 40 plus....this show appears to be aligning itself with a younger audience.... And who cares about someone learning to ride in a parking lot...

Send these folks an e-mail and let them know what we want and maybe they will listen.

I thought it was ridiculous. Absolutely missed their target audience, couldn't agree more. There were more commercials than any real information pertaining to bikes. And what was there, the learning how to ride, the V-Twin Expo. They could have been showing all the great new products ready to be introduced to the core market. I mean bobbers are cool, but the skateboard crowd, and to solely focus on that segment really makes me wonder where they're headed. I was kind of glad to see Jay Barbieri still in it, but I guess Michelle and girls are NOT a part of the teen crowd that they're trying to cater to now. I wonder what really happened to her?

No more Michelle? Say it ain't so - I thought she was great (until she made talking sounds with her mouth). Been disappointed with Speed TV for a while now that they're NASCAR 24 hours a day.
