#1 Unread post by earwig »

I just thought I would let everyone know about this new show, Super Bikes. It's on Speed Channel; if you have basic cable, you probably have Speed. Below is some info about thes how from the website, the schedule is here: http://www.speedtv.com/programs/454/

SPEED translates the exciting world of high performance motorcycles to television on “Super Bikes!”, a thirty-minute television series dedicated to the high revving, tire shredding, wheel standing world of sport bikes, the most exhilarating machines on the planet.

Each episode of “Super Bikes!” is produced to mirror the edgy, fast paced lifestyle of today’s young motorcycle enthusiasts. POV cameras and the hottest music combined with an insider’s perspective will make “Super Bikes!” a “must see” for today’s young adult male biker. “Super Bikes!” delivers the kick that today’s motorcycle industry and consumer will embrace.

Host Rossi Morreale and special field correspondent and world famous stunt rider Jason Britton take viewers inside the extreme lifestyles of all the personalities featured in each episode of “Super Bikes!”. They go on location at sport bike hot spots, events, tracks, back roads, urban streets, anywhere in the world young riders congregate to share their passion for speed on two wheels.

Viewers will meet the street racers, stunt riders and weekend warriors who live the sport bike lifestyle.

Sounds like fun to watch but I wonder how many squids are going to hurt themselves after watching it?

Squid TV..... :roll:

I can't believe they tanked 2-Wheel Tuesday for this..... wait a second, yes I can. They have been chipping away at that show for a long time, (hey, it wasn't the best, but it was all they had that dealt with anything other than American Twins).... now Speed has gone all the way and has only 2 pavement based options..... Harley/chopper based stuff and stunter/squid based stuff.

I guess all us naked/standard/touring/racing type folks don't fit thier demographic..... :?

However, The Motocross Files is a very good show. It deals with the history of MX and the riders who made it..... it is doomed. The current crop of jump-crazed dirt riders ain't gonna get behind that.....

And that's too bad. :(
No Witnesses.... :shifty:

I'm not so sure you should use the word squid so loosely :) People have been doing stunts on motorcycles pretty much since they were invented. Stunting is just now becoming mainstream... I don't see the difference between this and snowboarding, bungee jumping or even BMX 1/2 pipe ramping/freestyling. Many of these stunting "squids" are very skilled riders when it comes to the fundamentals of motorcycle riding also.

I'll definately give the new show a try, if only because it's not another "me too custom v-twin show-bike" show.
