With a combined 60 plus years in the AMA Superbike paddock, if Carruthers and Bice don’t know about it, it probably didn’t happen. The Off Track With Carruthers And Bice podcast prides itself on having the best guests from inside and outside the MotoAmerica paddock.

Mathew Scholtz

Mathew Scholtz is a happy guy. And he should be. The South African is coming off an 11-win season in which he earned his second successive MotoAmerica Supersport title, and the end result of those two years of domination have led him back to the MotoAmerica Superbike Championship for the 2026 season. A five-time MotoAmerica Superbike race winner, Scholtz will be aboard a Yamaha YZF-R1 with the team that helped him win the past two Supersport titles - Strack Racing. Scholtz knows that the task is a big one, but he's ready for the challenge as the team gets closer to starting its off-season testing program. We caught up with Scholtz from his home in Georgia to discuss the year that was and the year to come on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

James Rispoli

It would have taken a brave person to bet money on James Rispoli winning the Mission Super Hooligan National Championship after the first two rounds of the series at Daytona International Speedway and Road Atlanta. Rispoli was third and fifth in the two races at Daytona and those were a highlight as the two races at Road Atlanta ended with zero points for the KWR Harley-Davidson team. He left Georgia trailing points leader Jake Lewis by 48 points. But it all changed at Ridge Motorsports Park when Rispoli carded a pair of second-place finishes. That started a roll with Rispoli winning the final four races to beat Lewis to the title by four points. We chatted with Rispoli about his Hooligan title, the Mission King Of The Baggers Championship, and more on this episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

Dennis Noyes

Based on what he's accomplished, it's hard to believe that Dennis Noyes isn't a lifelong motorcyclist. But it's true as he didn't discover the sport until he was in his 20s, with a visit to the Spanish Grand Prix in 1968. That was all it took as he was immediately hooked. Noyes started riding and that quickly turned into racing. Then came the perfect job as a motojournalist, which not only allowed him to cover the World Championship, but also gave him the opportunity to test motorcycles and write about them. Since then, Noyes has become one of the most respected journalists in the MotoGP World Championship, having both written and spoken extensively about motorcycle racing as both a print and television journalist. More recently, Noyes has also made good on a dream of writing a non-motorcycle novel. We caught up with Noyes from his home in the desert town of Borrego Springs, California, to talk about motorcycle racing and life as an American in Spain on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

Gard Hollinger - ARCH Motorcycle

ARCH co-founder Gard Hollinger doesn’t want to be referred to as an “engineer” or a “designer” out of respect for those in the field who have a formal degree. But whether he likes it not, Hollinger is a bit of both. He’s also actor Keanu Reeves’ partner in ARCH Motorcycle, and the pair, along with their race team, recently completed their first year in the Mission Super Hooligan National Championship. They did so in style, with Corey Alexander racing the ARCH 2S-R to two fourth-place finishes in the season finale at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. We chatted with Hollinger prior to the weekend’s action at Mid-Ohio to talk all things ARCH, the difficulty of jumping in the deep end with a new bike and team, and much more on this week’s episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

Sam Moses

Sam Moses worked for Sports Illustrated for 18 years, the majority of which as its motorsports writer, covering events like the Indy 500, the Daytona 500 and the Long Beach Grand Prix back when it was a round of the Formula One World Championship. But his first love was motorcycles, and motorcycle racing, so Moses pitched those stories to Sports Illustrated and, with the help of his SI editor Bob Brown, he was able to write stories that no one else was writing. Those stories included his first motorcycle racing feature on a young, dirt-tracking Kenny Roberts in 1974. But he didn't stop there. He kept pitching those stories, bringing motorcycle racing to a new audience with more feature stories, including Roberts during his World Championship years, and the three-time 500cc World Champion's challenger, a young Freddie Spencer. We got the chance to chat with Moses from his island home of Lombok in Indonesia to chat about all that and more.Support the show

Tim Estenson

From fighting alcoholism as a young man who actually did hit rock bottom, to building a start-up trucking company into a $360 million success story with 3000 employees, Tim Estenson has most definitely lived. Having sold Estenson Logistics in 2017, Estenson is now "retired," and focusing his efforts on Estenson Racing, which encompasses the highly successful American Flat Track (AFT) team of Dallas Daniels and Tom Drane, and the upstart MotoAmerica Talent Cup team featuring Sam Drane. Estenson also has an impressive collection of motorcycles that hovers around 300.

Joe Karvonen is the owner of Krämer Motorcycles U.S.A. and he’s an engineer who learned his trade at the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute. He’s also a club racer and a track-day rider.

John Ewert

It's hard to argue against Road America being one of the best racing facilities in the world. The track itself is long, it's fast, and it always produces close races. As for the rest of it... well, you'd have to look long and hard to find even a blade of grass that's out of place. A favorite of MotoAmerica's racers, teams and fans, the series is excited to be heading to the picturesque circuit in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, May 30-June 1. For a bit more background on Road America, we caught up with the track's Communications Director John Ewert to learn even more about the racetrack and the local community on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice. Support the show

With two rounds and four races in the bank, Doyle is third in the championship with three podiums out of the four races. Unfortunately, mechanical issues kept him from scoring points in race one at Barber Motorsports Park or he'd be even closer to the front. In addition to racing his Giaccmoto Yamaha Racing YZF-R7 in the SC-Project Twins Cup series, Doyle also races a Yamaha MT-09 SP in the Mission Super Hooligan National Championship, and that's what he will be racing in the next round of the MotoAmerica Championship at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta, May 4-6.  We caught up with Doyle in the days leading up to the Road Atlanta round to talk about his racing and much more on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

Kenny Roberts

The statement "needs no introduction" is somewhat overused. But in the case of this week's guest on Off Track With Carruthers And Bice, it's accurate. Three-time AMA Grand National Champion and three-time 500cc GP World Champion Kenny Roberts truly needs no introduction. We were fortunate enough to catch up with Roberts at Circuit of The Americas with the legend in Texas for MotoGP and, more importantly, the road-racing debut of his Team Roberts' protégé Kody Kopp in MotoAmerica's new Parts Unlimited Talent Cup By Motul series.

Black and his Chase Black Racing Krämer APX-350 MA led the way on both days and was the only rider to crack the 1:21 barrier.

And Lewis has kept that momentum going with an exhilarating victory in the second of two Hooligan races at Daytona International Speedway to start his season, a season that will see him racing again in Hooligan and King Of The Baggers as well as Supersport - this time on a Altus Motorsports Yamaha YZF-R9.

Mathew Scholtz

Strack Racing's Mathew Scholtz heads to Circuit of The Americas in Austin Texas, next week with a 25-point lead in the 2024 MotoAmerica Supersport Championship. Left without a ride when the Westby Racing Superbike team folded at the end of last season, Scholtz took a step back to race in the Supersport class. And  it's worked to perfection. The South African, who now calls Georgia home, has won seven races and has stood on the podium in 13 of 14 races. He's also had some battles royale with his rival in the title chase, PJ Jacobsen. We caught up with Scholtz prior to the final two rounds of the title chase to talk about his season, the rivalry with Jacobsen, his past, and his future on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

Larry Pegram

Spend any time with Larry Pegram and there's one thing that's certain - you're gonna laugh. But in case you don't know, Pegram is no joke when it comes to racing a motorcycle. Any kind of motorcycle. Case in point: Pegram has won three AMA Superbike races and multiple AMA Grand National Flat Tracks. At the ripe young age of 51, Pegram recently raced in the MotoAmerica Supersport class at our WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca round, finishing 15th and 11th in the two races. Next weekend, August 16-18, Pegram is going to throw his leg over the TopPro Suzuki GSX-R750 again as MotoAmerica brings the series back to Pegram's home track of Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. We chatted with Pegram about his racing, past and present, his new challenge of racing cars with his teenaged daughter, and his highly successful business, Pure Ohio Wellness, in this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

Dr. Tom Bryan

If you race motorcycles in the MotoAmerica Championship, chances are you have Dr. Tom Bryan's phone number on speed dial. If you don't, you should. Bryan is basically our surgeon to the stars and his list of patients reads like a who's who of motorcycle racing. We caught up with Bryan for this week's Off Track With Carruthers And Bice to talk about things of which  we had very little knowledge. And we're now the wiser for it.Support the show
