Let’s talk about a smaller team this week. Small doesn’t mean less heart, and Norm proved that! The team from Colorado, Norm Berg and his 1925 Harley-Davidson JD. As always, it takes a team, and Norm had a great one with his wife, Denise, and Kent Pyatt. Along with being his support crew, this dynamic […]

Let’s talk about another close-knit team this week, Team Kansas-Texas. Somehow, we still don’t have a better name for them yet! This crew was a team of pure Harley-Davidsons, led by none other than the Harley whisperer himself. Bill Page built so many motors that ran on the TransAm, somewhere around a third of the

Let’s talk about one of the biggest and most unforgettable teams in the TransAm; you know ‘em, you love ‘em, Team Butts! Team Butts rolled deep this year, with a mix of machines, but the heart of their lineup was pure Harley-Davidson. Don’t let that fool you though, the champion, Mike Butts, rode a 1913

Let’s talk about one of our awesome teams, the infamous Wolfpack! The Wolfpack is a group of like-minded individuals who share a passion for four-cylinder antique motorcycles and enjoy racing them.

I think we are all going through a little withdrawal not being surrounded by friends every day, not fixing bikes every night, and not falling asleep from sheer exhaustion with a smile on

The final stage of the Motorcycle TransAm was short on miles but big on heart. Riders had just 125 miles to cover today, a treat after so many long grinds. We started out in the lush Oregon forest, rolling toward the coast then to Highway 101. The fog was so thick in the morning that

Stage 14 of the Motorcycle TransAm was another long and grueling day. Even with only two stages left these riders pushed through 294 miles that included the spectacular McKenzie Pass in the Cascades. The route showed off just how beautiful and diverse Oregon can be. We rolled from the stark, otherworldly stretches of eastern Oregon

Stage 13 of the Motorcycle TransAm was a serious test of distance and determination. Riders logged 360 miles today with one long stretch that had no gas for 105 miles, so everyone carried extra fuel today. Our first group of four cylinder bikes reached the finish in an incredible eight and a half hours. Almost

Stage 12 of the Motorcycle TransAm brought a gentler road and a shorter day at just 216 miles, but it was packed with scenery and stories. We began a little differently this morning by trailering out of the madhouse traffic of Salt Lake City to Brigham City before launching the bikes. At 9 a.m. the
