I watched it last night on the Discovery Channel. They had some show I hadn't seen before. I saw one about bike builders Billy Lane of Choppers, Inc. and the Borget guy going to a rally in South Carolina.

| FXSB | I agree, that Jet Bike was way Kewl..... Not only did the show display a great creative spirit, but was a good example of why family should NOT work together in most cases.

| Geoffrey | Motorcycle Women was pretty lame. It was basically a glorified shopping trip with six ladies escourted by a bike mechanic driving an RV. The novelty of women bikers is gone, although nothing looks better to me than a nice looking woman on a scoot.

I thought the same thing.
They were going to a "Grrrl Power" rally in San Fransisco. They kept raving about how "free" they were. They kept going on about how "empowering" it was to be out on the open road. They kept emphasizing how "independant" they felt.
Consequently, when they mentioned the bike mechanic following in the RV, I nearly laughed my ass off.
They never showed him during the first half of the show. All the shots were of them rolling down the highway in group, No RV in back, and tearing away from stop signs with pipes blowing. I guess they stopped up the road to let the RV catch up. None of those shots included the RV following behind them.
I kept wondering how that Devil Doll kept changing clothes so freqently when she didn't have any saddle bags.
