I didn't get to see the whole show but I was surprised that she was wearing heels on those boots during her class.

Each show is all over the place with no focus of interest except Charity's chest.

I agree ten fold! Not sure what the producers at Speed are thinking with the new host. Do they have any clue who their audience is? I think most bikers would rather look at Michelle Smith. I also think she held her own when it came to riding and chatting with bikers of all kinds.

I think the new show just sucks in comparison.

Bring back Michelle, bring back Jay and bring back something about bikes. I can't figure out what the show is about but it isn't bikes.

As I said before Michelle wasn't my favorite, but maybe she ditched them. If she was truely a biker, and they started talking metrics, she may have told them to get bent. Just a thought.

While Michelle offered lots in the "HOT" department her off-beat rhythm and timing left much to be desired in the show-host department. Charity is a much welcome quiet version of Michelle. When the show first started Michelle had about as much "biker" in her (no pun intended) as Charity does now.
I do agree that the new show so far is a snoozer and I would have changed channels if it weren't for the Special Forces theme. That Deuce they modded was a great show of appreciation to not only Special Forces but all of those serving in the military. Kudos to American Thunder and a huge Thank You to those that risk it all for us.

Same here! I watched the "new" show a couple of times and the "people" format sucks. I'll record a few more shows and delete them if they contunue to be boring.
