Hello boys and girls,  Rolling into another round at the fictitious V‑Twin Café in beautiful Cranford, New Jersey, the whole crew — me, Tim, Chris, and Justin — pulled our stools up to the counter for a conversation that felt like slipping into a well‑worn leather jacket. Today we dove into the timeless pull of old Harley‑Davidsons: the Springers that still turn heads, the Sportsters that refuse to die, the Dynas that defined a generation, and all the other machines that made Milwaukee iron what it is. We weren’t alone at the counter, either. Joining us was Dave Ackerman, the man behind Tobacco Motorwear, bringing his own brand of moto wisdom, denim toughness, and love for the classics. So grab a coffee, settle in, and let’s talk about why these old Harleys still get under our skin and stay there. This is the Motorcycle Men Podcast — and the Cafe' is officially open.

Hello boys and girls,  Today we’re joined by a true Route 66 legend: Jerry McClanahan, author of the iconic EZ 66 Guide for Travelers. If you’ve ever dreamed of exploring the Mother Road, chances are Jerry’s maps, notes, and hand-drawn gems have guided your wheels. We’re going to dig into the creation of the guide, the research behind it, the updates that keep it fresh, and the magic of Route 66 itself. Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned road wanderer, this conversation is packed with insight, history, and a whole lot of heart. EZ66 Website Please patronize our Wonderful Sponsors!!

Hello boys and girls,  This week on the Motorcycle Men Podcast, we’re firing up the mics for a wide‑ranging, slightly unhinged, fully caffeinated conversation that covers everything we’ve been up to since early March. Ted takes you behind the scenes of the interviews he’s recorded over the past month — the riders, builders, storytellers, and characters who’ve rolled through the virtual garage and left their mark on the show.

Hello boys and girls,  We’re joined by Court Butler of Butler Maps, the folks who’ve helped more riders find more great roads than GPS units ever will. Court’s here to talk about their brand‑new Historic Route 66 Experience Series Map — a deep dive into the Mother Road that blends history, rideability, and all the weird, wonderful Americana that makes Route 66 such a legend.

Hello Boys and Girls, Rolling into today’s episode, we’ve got something a little special lined up. If you’ve spent any time wandering the backroads of YouTube or diving into the world of garage‑built moto culture, you’ve probably stumbled across the Tallboys and Trackmasters podcast — two riders who mix storytelling, wrench‑turning, and a healthy dose of “did we really just say that?” energy into every episode. These guys have carved out their own corner of the motorcycle universe, blending long‑form conversations with the kind of humor you only get from people who’ve logged real miles and real mistakes. They talk bikes, builds, beer, bad decisions, and the riders who make this whole community worth being part of. YouTube Please patronize our Wonderful Sponsors!!

For ten years, The V‑Twin Blog has been the digital watering hole for riders who want news, gear talk, event coverage, and that unmistakable American V‑Twin rumble — without the social‑media nonsense and without anyone trying to sell them a miracle chrome polish. Larry started this thing back in 2016 with a simple mission: build a one‑stop shop for the everyday V‑Twin rider. Fast‑forward a decade and over 1.3 million visitors have wandered through his virtual doors. So today, we’re going to talk about how it all started, what’s surprised him, what’s broken, what’s been fixed with duct tape, and what keeps him writing after all these years. Grab a drink, settle in, and let’s welcome Larry from The V‑Twin Blog. YouTube Website Instagram X/Twitter Please patronize our Wonderful Sponsors!!

Hello Boys and Girls, Joining me today on the Podcast, we’re taking a detour off the main highway and into the wonderfully odd, clever, and cinematic world of filmmaker John Putch. You know him from his long directing career, his indie gems like the Route 30 trilogy, and his decades of work in film and television — but today we’re zeroing in on something a little different: his hilarious, low‑budget‑on-purpose, high‑charm motorcycle videos on YouTube. These shorts blend road‑trip Americana, deadpan humor, and the kind of creative freedom only a rider with a camera and a mischievous streak can pull off. We’ll talk about the bikes, the destinations, the characters, the comedy, and the craft behind these deceptively simple moto films. So grab your helmet, settle in, and let’s roll into the world of PutchFilms.  YouTube Website Instagram Please patronize our Wonderful Sponsors!!
