124 episodes - English - Latest episode: 6 days ago - ★★★★★ - 343 ratings

Hey, I'm Kyle. You might have seen us on Youtube, Instagram, and Facebook. Dirt bikes are a passion of mine. I focus mainly on the off road and enduro segments of our sport because that is the riding me and my friends focus on. Think of this as an extension of the more than 1200 videos found on YouTube. Here we talk all things related to off road and enduro style dirt bike riding. With topics ranging from full dirt bike reviews, gear reviews, riding tips, and other general non-sense, we have the off road rider covered.

Here is a dating podcast I've been working on recently.  This isn't the family friendly content you've been used to.  There is nothing to do with dirt bikes in this show. It's a dating podcast, but you might want to check it out.

It's pretty darn stiff. So, I took off my handlebars (damn clickers are right under the bars) and loosened things up as much as they'd go. Bouncing off everything like a pogo st...

August 24, 2021 20:00 - 21 minutes - 14.5 MB

If I had a nickel for every time someone asked me about riding alone, I'd have more nickels than the average person.  The truth is that I ride alone all the time.  I take precautions to mitigate risk, but at the end of the day, we are always managing risks with everything we do.  For me, the benefits outweigh the risks because I get recharged when I'm in solitude in the mountains or desert in a way that I don't get when I'm in a group of people.  When I'm alone, I feel things differently.  ...
