Season 27 | Motorcycle Experience
Motorcycle Experience premiered it’s 27th season on TSN in the spring of 2016. It has all the old stand-bys with the perennial weekly road tests, Shifting Gears, and Ultimate Ride segments. New this season is a special Red Adventure segment and Used Bike Corner. This year, Dave and Norm Wells head out on a “Viva Las Vegas!” Ultimate Ride. They ride out from the strip in a different direction everyday hitting up destinations like the Hoover Dam, Lake Meade, and Valley of Fire State Park. In the new Red Adventure segment Dave taps Dakar racer Lawrence Hacking and enduro rider Toni Sharpless for some expert advice on adventure riding. There’s a lot here to keep you informed and entertained!
