Chadc,

You're probably right, because I haven't seen to much on SPEEED that interests me. Seems like the same old, same old...but I've never seen "Trippin' on 2 Wheels" before. So I'm gonna have to cast my vote later. Like as in after tomorrow, which is when the "Trippin'" comes on at 11 AM EST.

Oh, but they do carry some of the races, so for that reason, I'll just have to check out the TV guide to find out when they're hot, and when they're not!

Just finished watching the Spain edition of the show. What a great find! I think I have a new favorite show and, to make it even better, my wife who is a new rider sat and watched the entire show with me and enjoyed every minute. Thanks for alerting me to this show!

I missed it! And now it's not going to be on for 3 weeks. You would think they would run it again sometime sooner!

I loved the Scotland edition and didnt even know about the Sicily one.... I will however be watching the Spain and Quebec one.

I think its a smart show. I mean really what do most of us bikers ride for.... a sense of adventure. So here these guys are on bikes going on an adventure.

Just got done watching "Trippin" on Speed in some obscure re-run time slot. It was interesting. More of a travelog show than anything, but it was still fun to watch. Makes you want to get a bike and travel Europe.

The one day I spent riding the Alps w/my Austrian buddy was an experience I'll cherish. Way too much fun for mere mortals. But there's a sort of insanity with the riders there. They like to go as fast as they can, till they crash.

Kinda sounds like Deal's Gap and the Cherohala Skyway....

Does anyone know what those pants are that Dennis Gage is wearing? They look fairly cool, I wonder if they are riding gear or just thick ass jeans.

Amen, I've been looking for someone to do this, too.

I think they are made by Motophoria. They go with their Meriden touring jacket, but I don't see them on-line.
