I'm Jim Martin. This is Adventure Rider Radio, and we've got a good show for you today.

We've got a new feature that we're starting on this show on this episode called Motomogles.

And what Motomogles is is our way of featuring and highlighting anyone who's made significant contributions to the motorcycle industry, making it what we know it as today.

So today we've got our first episode of Motomogals.

We also have Spencer Hill, who is the gear dude.

He's the guy who does gear reviews for some online

magazines and a print one as well. He also does them starting with this episode for us here

at Adventure Rider Radio. And Spencer's going to be looking at a tent that he took out and tested

severely, not just popping it up in his backyard, but he took it out on a trip where he ran it through

snow, wind, rain, and sleet. And he's got the full story coming up.

Stick around for that one.

You're also going to hear from Lawrence Hacking,

from Lawrence Hacking's Overland Adventure.

Lawrence is well known in the motorcycle industry.

He's been racing since 1971.

He was the first Canadian to finish the Dakar on a motorcycle,

and he's done tons of racing since then, and he runs his own event called Lawrence Hacking's Overland Adventure, which is a yearly event in Ontario, Canada.

Stick around for that and more coming up.
