Episode 005 is simply the extended interview with Walt Fulton and Nancy Foote that was promised in Episode 003.

I had the chance to take the Streetmasters course and was amazed by how much my skill went up as a rider.

I had slugged out about half and hour for the interview for Walt and Nancy to talk about the program, but after my first question, I knew this was going to be something special.

Walt and Nancy go in to detail about Walt’s famous father Walt Futon, Jr. Walt then goes into his racing career and the origins of Streetmasters.

Walt and Nancy then go on to talk about their recent Alaska trip to support Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

Some recent stories about Streetmasters can be found at Motorcycle.com and canyonchasers.com.

As always, if you have any questions, comments, stories, or suggestions, please contact me at socalbmw@me.com.
