This Week-We Open the Vault

Beemerman has good reason to be proud this week.  The photo featured in this blog not only got a half-page spread in Friction Zone magazine, but was also one of four voted by members of pashnit.com to be featured in their 2007 motorcycle calendar.

 

So it seemed appropriate to pull out a couple of unused clips from previous interviews related to photography.

Kate Edwards, editor of Friction Zone magazine www.friction-zone.com talks about the unique challenges of taking great photos of roads.  Also, Shawn King of the wildly popular "Your Bike Life" www.yourbikelife.com  podcast talks about ridding the world of bad graphics.

Harley Dude was indisposed this week so the Wrench Wench did a fine job of filling in for him.  Plus next week she will be bringing you an EXTRAORDINARY interview.  Be sure to tune in for that.

We had some very interesting odd news

Beemerman read an essay entitled..."The Kill Zone" he wrote about a recent freeway ride.

This Week-Glen Heggstad, author of "Two Wheels Through Terror" which  chronicles his solo motorcycle ride from North America to the tip of South America.  Along the way he was captured by rebel soldiers and held captive in the most appalling conditions for six weeks.  His decision to continue the ride after such a horrifying experience inspired thousands.

Heggstad is also the author of the up-coming book "Reshuffling the Decke" which tells the tale of his ride across Siberia, Eastern Europe and Africa.  Instead of focusing on sprockets, tires and gas mileage he tells the story in pictures and words of the peoples of the world giving the book an appeal far beyond the motorcycle market.

I was forturnate enough this week to be invited to Mr. Heggstad's home and over pasta and green tea he told me his story.  The story is so compelling the crew at Road Show decided to forego our regular format and play the entire hour.

Listen it will change your life.
