Mike was a former professional motocross racer of 24 years. His story is unique, inspiring, and tragic at the same time. One of the nicest guys you’ll meet who just lights up the room when he walks in.
Our east coast camera guy, Cross Hebert, linked up with J-Law at Kevin Windham’s FARM 14 MX Training facility as Jason prepares for Loretta’s!
Ping is back! The boys Brent Bowser and Jeff Beaver recap Washougal. Ping’s been pretty busy but was able to make time to hop back on and chat about what we saw!
Welcome back to Electronic Ping, a column I’ve been writing in some form or another since 1998. I know there aren’t a lot of written columns anymore; seems like people don’t have the patience for it and if it isn’t a 12-second [or less] video, people lose interest faster than Gary Busey at a congeniality convention. Well, for those old souls who still like to read something… welcome! And if you’ve gotten to this point and you can’t stay focused, thanks for stopping by, and don’t forget to get your Ritalin scrip refilled soon!
Our guy, Jeff Beaver bought and built this sick 2005 Honda CRF450R. (Fitting since we just posted our review of the 2025, go watch it.) The idea was to make what most would see as the ultimate weekend warrior’s bike, a do-it-all machine. We think this bike came out sweet and we hope you guys do too!

Honda invited us out to IronMan Raceway to check out the launch of their ALL NEW Honda CRF450R! Boasting a host of new changes (70 percent) this bike is a significant improvement on the last generation, fixing a lot of what people were complaining about. Big thanks to Honda for their hospitality and for making this an enjoyable experience! Rider: Hunter Schlosser – @schlossman173
Rick talks about what he thinks may be his best find yet. A fully original Honda Elsinore. Dent free, maybe 10 hours on it, all original parts. To restore or not to restore is the biggest question now!
Rick Doughty talks about his 1996 WR250 and why he thinks it is one of the best bikes to get into retro riding!
This Triumph motorcycle has a cool story and came to be in a unique way. Rick Doughty tells us about how he decided to create this desert sled from a Triumph Daytona
