Twist the Throttle on Discovery Turbo

By Paul Crowe

Twist the Throttle

Dylan Weiss, who has been blogging on Twisting Asphalt for several years, is a video producer for cable television. He’s worked on a number of auto and motorcycle related videos but the latest series from Dylan and his team called Twist The Throttle has just launched on Discovery Turbo on the web.

The series takes them on a multi nation tour of 8 motorcycle manufacturers, covering their history, manufacturing, R&D along with their latest sportbikes. There’s a lot of behind the scenes footage of the countryside and just getting around which gives you an idea of all of the traveling involved. Really interesting and very well done. Nice job, Dylan!

Thanks for the tip, Doug!

    Cool, sounds like a motorcycle version of “Victory by Design” (which happens to be one of my favorite series on tv ever). Hopefully it will be as good as VDB.
