Made the voyage there when we where in the area, stopped for gas spoke with a handful of locals, nobody there likes them, said there arrogant as hell, before the money and fame came along they where regular guys, two of them grew up with Jr when they see him now he doesn't even acknowledge them.

Now that would be an interesting 1 hour documentary. Having a filming crew go to the hometown and do some local interviews of how fame and fortune changed a down to earth blue collar family into rich, bickering snobs

We all have the power to send the message that their 15 minutes of fame is over. Just dont watch the crap when its on tv. IMO Jr is a talentless hack and Sr is a old dimbazz. Mikey? Comb your fukn hair buddy boy. All of them are arrogant fools. Again Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

I used to watch the show when it first started and they were really building nice fresh look bikes. Then they became all too similar and the soap opera fighting and the family outing shows came along. Then I quit watching. I wish there was a real bike builder show that would come on now. I haven't seen one in a good while.

Waste of time. They'll go away if nobody watches or buys their swag. I have more important things to do. Like riding my ultra reliable self customized bike.

Well, I might just tune in for that train wreck. That'd put a different spin on the situation.
