Just do a search of trippin on 2 wheels and you can get all episodes for 35 bucks. Not very many time slots on speed channel for this. The next one is for 4 am mid week. What's up with that? |

http://www.speedtv.com/programs/trippin-on-two-whe els/ I saw Dennis Gage and his son do a show about riding in Scotland a year ago or so. I guess they enjoyed it so much they have done others now.

A couple years ago they did an episode featuring a Ulysses ride to Montreal and the surrounding countryside. Dorky, dorky, dorky hosts, but cool footage and always great to see the Uly in action. |

Outstanding...thanks for the bump on this thread. I'm all ready to record, though for me it's on at 4am EST on Speed (channel 150 on Dish Network). Not sure why the times are different. |

I set my DVR for it, and just happened to be up at the time. Turned to SpeedTV. Stock car race is on, although the DVR says it is Trippin'. Crap. |

Damn Speed Tv, I got up at 3:30 to make sure I was ready for work before the show started and low and behold, the tv said it was Trippin on two wheels, but it looked stock car racing. What a way to start a Monday. |

Yep, the whole hour was stock car racing! Friggin NASCAR! why don't they start their own network and leave Speed Channel to the rest of the motorsports world. I use to love the World Rally car events, speedway motorcycles from europe, all of it. Now it's all NASCAR. If I want other stuff I have to subscribe to a $$ cable package. Ahhhh...the good old days! |

O darn. NASCAR, how boring. I think it is more fun to watch kids at a go-kart track. I have read however that the folks running the show want more of a grudge type thing to get more folks involved again. O well perhaps I will be able to watch a NASCAR race and a hockey game might break out. |

I just checked the speedvision website and it says that it actually aired this morning in the correct time slot! Of course there was no contact information on the website that I could find. I checked future events and it shows none. What a bunch of Idiots. |

It's a little funny to think there was a few of us that got up at 3:30 am (me included) and were preemted by Nascar. It would'nt have been so bad if I was a Nascar fan. Lucky for me I can have an afternoon nap in few minutes. |

I now 'have to' watch Discovery HD Theater to get FIA WRC, Speedway series races, Isle of Man TT races and a few other items that used to appear on Speed, loooong loooong ago. Discovery HD Theater does air some nice documentaries about motorcycle manufacturers that I've enjoyed lately. Granted, I like watching them in HD but if I see something that I want to let others know is on, I've found many don't get HD Theater in their cable system or the channel in their cable package. But they get NASCAR on Speed... Jake (who lives 17 minutes from Daytona Int'l Speedway and, frankly, gets enough of NASCAR without Speed showing me more) |

I just went to speed's web site and even the link for trippin on two wheels takes you to some NASCAR Bullsh-t! What kind of cruel joke is this? I HATE SPEED CHANNEL!!! |

I can't stand you silent, keep-it-pent-up types who just sit and stew. Makes you difficult to read and understand. |

To add insult to injury, I don't think they were riding Buells in the Italy Switzerland episode. They were in Quebec as I've seen that one. Here is the preview for Italy Swiss http://www.trippinontwowheelstv.com/ItalySwitzerla nd/ |
