Chris and Heather check in from Buffalo, Wyoming during the America 250: Two Wheels, One Nation motorcycle journey for a laid-back roadside edition of Shop Talk.
Recorded live while crossing the country, this episode covers everything from elk burgers and huckleberry ice cream to long days in the saddle, unforgettable small-town America, and the experiences that are shaping this once-in-a-lifetime ride.
The conversation looks back on highlights from the trip so far, including Casey, Illinois, the Rabbit Ranch, Mount Rushmore, and Chamberlain, South Dakota's incredible Fourth of July celebration. Along the way, Chris and Heather answer questions from listeners, share stories from the road, and talk about the people they've met who continue to make this adventure so memorable.
They also discuss riding the 2026 Harley-Davidson Road Glide Limited, compare it to Chris's well-traveled 2002 Twin Cam, review the Cardo Packtalk Edge communication system, and share practical tips for staying comfortable during 600- to 800-mile riding days.
Naturally, the conversation wanders into food, travel, motorcycle gear, and a spirited discussion about Rocky Mountain oysters before wrapping up with a look at the road ahead toward Yellowstone National Park and the Santa Monica Pier.
If you enjoy motorcycles, road trips, American travel, and authentic conversations from the road, this episode is for you.
