Episode 79: Not Dead Yet
It's action-packed and you don't want to miss it...
Yeah, there's this thing called life that sometimes separates us from doing extracurricular activities...so thanks for tuning in to another free, fabulous, and unsupported installment of the Moterrific Podcast. Your support is appreciated.
AMA - Cristi coming to a cruiser ad near you in AMA marketing materials. What is it like to ride in a photo shoot?
Ride Reports - Joanne and Cristi take to the streets. Riding in California "cold" weather (40F brrr...), riding in brief sunshine in Palm Desert and Anza Borrego on an Indian Scout.
Gear Mentions:
- High tech shields for your helmet - Gearchic loves the transition lens from Shoei; read her review here. And Bell Helmet wearers, have no fear; they make one too...but my sensitive eyes still need sunglasses.
- Rukka Orbita - Upcoming product Joanne can't wait to get her hands on.
- Alpinestars Riley Kevlar Jean - Cristi chats about kevlar denim options from Alpinestars (the Kerry, the Daisy, the Riley); Joanne's review of the Daisy.
- Dainese Torque Out D1 Boots - Men's race boot (which I own) with ankle protection you should check out (brief mention). This Spring, Joanne is excited about the women's equivalent.

Medical Evac / MedJet Assist - AMA Member Discounts - Check it out! Also keep in mind that big trips require big spending...so protect yourself with trip interruption / travel insurance. Spend <$100, save thousands. Your call.
New Rider Anxiety - A GSXR might be too big for a first ride...but hey, I've felt that way about my rides as well as a somewhat seasoned (mostly salted) rider.
