2 Wheel Passport is a new motorcycle travel show coming to the U.S. next year, based on a show by the same name shown in Europe in 2003. Each one hour episode will take a group of motorcyclists on a ride to and through a destination in the U.S. like Deals Gap, the Blue Ridge Parkway, the Pacific Coast Highway and many more.
Each episode is designed to make the most of an area within a specific time frame. Regardless if the viewer has just a long weekend, or is visiting the United States for an extended time and wants to experience as many areas as possible, he or she will experience what can be done within these different time frames. Topics included in each episode include:
* Looking for Adventure – Episode introduction; showcasing the reasons riders visit this destination
* Weapon of Choice – Which bike is most suited to the terrain
* Not From Around These Parts – Special motorcycling protocol observed in the area
* Touring Tip of the Week – Touring advice answering frequently asked questions
Each episode will afterwards be downloadable for your computer, iPod or GPS with maps and guides so you can retrace the trip and visit any or all of the places shown on that show.
Banned Breed Productions who are putting on the show also have a casting call on their site so maybe you can be a star!

interesting….but, I don’t understand the motorcycle media and manufacturer’s use of certain terms used to describe facets of motorcycling….
“weapon of choice”
“streetfighter”
juvenile and dorky

Did I miss something? Where’s the planned channel going to be? Or is it actually going to be on the Travel Channel?
Sorry, if it’s a stupid question, but I’ve only had a minimal amount of coffee this morning…TravelTV.com brings up a spam search page and I don’t see any other channels listed in the linked articles.
How about a youtube link to it?
If this is just going to be a webcast, why not call it that?
/I’m not trying to be a wiseass, but it just seems like alot of hype to see if some cable channel will pick them up based on a press release pushed around the web.
