at the new washington state convention and trade center location we attend the thirty first annual two thousand and eleven two thousand and twelve progressive international motorcycle shows once again we are the washington state convention or and trade center downtown seattle this time for the international motorcycle s directly and then we will be talking to the new spokes person over here shortly and i've got an assistant with me here peter was talking to one of the right across pretty crazy  my life in danger and ever since then we've been doing shows forty three twenty four smalls now are you going to bring in and and we met him a little earlier just briefly now on the video we saw you getting how close is it really as in how other than other than when he purposely road rules you're late even when they jump over you i always try to make it as close as possible so i mean it's am nineteen years old and so how long have you been doing this i've been doing shows done for about four years so and how did you get hooked and i got hooked in actually funny story they say they're doing shows one day in years and performing performing across just midwest we started and then went national after a while but about eight years or so performing our show my brother and i because i know that you guys before you started doing the shows you actually are professional writers and have actually won some competition yeah we both have a big competitive background actually he's my brother he's the current national champion and the four time national champion so he's got he's got the big resume  d like to space out and to do different sports you know dabble in mordor cross and endure a cross and hare scrambles and stuff and get bike racing all that kind of stuff and you have had some success definitely with competing before doing the show is but then the day you get  guaranteed a certain amount of work a certain amount of money and with doing the motorcycle shows as a series across the country you're guaranteed with twelve different shows from different batches summer stops i don't know if i don't have the math right now but there's four shows saturdays two shows friday and then three shows sunday so a lot of show is a you know we have we've got teachers that we try and sell the house our help our you know how we're doing how to travel because sometimes you know travel costs come into play so we had doing the whole series is really good to have that cement solid tour schedule set up so therefore you want to wonder and you know job security but in our area you know our line of work security isn't really the word to use but it's really nice to have that pull through or to not fall back on  be looking forward to well and it's also kind of during the winter early spring month so maybe you're not out doing some of the trials and stuff as much normally during the winter pack we go to california and is cutting into my other profession but you've got to get a stripe and irons out and right now he's coming off the t v show and we got got a good deal i'm good fanbase here so really we had this opportunity and you know we decided let's go for it but i think you touched on that speaking know that i watched the program and i watched the reaction of some of the judges and and their comment and and so what was that whole experience like for you i mean even though i was in writing i still very nerve wracking it was more nerve wracking because they were nerve racking so if they hate me i mean it's a scary thing for us in front of a bunch a bunch of people in t v and live t v live audience  there is probably one of the bigger live audiences you have no not so much like the it's a small it's a small stage small studio oh it's really just a couple hundred people all realize that all ok it was there was a reminder say so this being on live t v how did that affect your performance well it was like like i was saying i mean the nerves are so are magnified so much with v in general even with video cameras and there's a camera going on you know there's just that much more tension and that i'm used to like you have to perform now when it's live t v and instantly you make a mistake the world sees it that's like any show times a million so i mean the t ensions are really high and the way that the show played out with them building the props and not finishing them so we go live pretty much like they usually get done the day before and you know with our stuff we have a very good chance of getting hurt as compared to a singer or a dancer on the other group and they would have all week to practice we would just be sitting there doing nothing thrilling our thumbs around waiting for them to finish process so it really made it that also added to the to the pressure and to the tension so i mean the actual experience was not very enjoyable due to those reasons i mean sitting in a room waiting after going to the bathroom a guy with a bathroom and hey every we're going to give you my bike you have to ask to go to the bathroom yeah they keep up pretty it's pretty because the reasoning was emergency interviews in case you're needed for an emergency interview you can't be within outside like twenty miles of the set or twenty minutes with that because they need you they agree with you i'm like what even is an emergency interview come on now you never happened but yeah they had we had a couple issues with with pat and troy trying to jump it just bail ship and then go back to retire room and they call them in tracking down ok so i know pat's not here and he was saying that he probably would have some nice things to say but what happened about jumping ship and trying to write up nothing against the show but we were bored and i mean we didn't we were kind of sick of hanging out on our behinds all day for a week so we other things if we need to do an interview or anything so i mean it really wasn't any point fred i mean they're they can't expect young people to just sit and twiddle their thumbs with nothing to do yeah right i'm or something cause there's nothing real about it i mean it's about is is scripted as a reality t v show can get i guess is i mean they really don't put the words in your mouth but they really push your with the direction they want you to go and so there's really i mean the big myth of all this is this is completely who these people are that they try and dress you and they try and do all this stuff to mold you the way they want you to be so how much how much of the personal information and things like that was really you guys and how much was sort of helped to be created by them really thankfully we stood our ground running we first got to l a for the live show is the quarterfinals we saw one of the other groups that had just finished their first live show and we're like a how to go you know what's up and they're like i'm the they're all kind of down and stuff because i guess the judges had better write better marks to him and so the reasoning behind that was there just said we have one thing to tell you guys don't let them dress dress you don't let them boss you around and so we kind of stood our ground early and so a lot of the stuff that was out there that was awesome that was i mean we did their meet deadline over and over the same what we were saying we went like didn't buckle and then let them change our gear didn't let them control  as much i mean there's some things you can't stop them from doing but i mean they're really going to thing that was fabricated was our family being there in the semifinals upset over jumped over our family the only people family members were my grandma our grandma and then my mom and my dad all the other ones were just kind of stand in their friends but they were made to believe that it was our whole family which we tried hard to get whole families out there but they wouldn't cover any of the tickets or kept any rooms or anything so our my grandma who was like the star of that i'm sure they have a decent budget as i'm getting it and they really wouldn't they wouldn't cap any of that and so that was really surprising and that was going that's going to fall apart with our performers well why is that that sauce that's who we are i mean we're just some farm guys from wisconsin that really like to ride motorcycles so  in our family the just just mom dad and grandma ok well you know i got peter behind the camera did i miss anything of your body get hit and what about the practice run the very first day here oh ok it doesn't i don't get hit as much as you would like as you would think since we do so many shows i mean on the t v show people saw that but i heard that during the practice when you first got set up here that you think you got close to getting crushed in in the growing the tire so didn't go more his legs than the main vein well i know that you guys have to go and do some other things and but i want to thank you for taking some time to promise and we'll go check out some more of the show and maybe talk to the p r person for the show here to i'm now with several different folks one of which is the new c r person for the shows here for those who have been watching previously we've had robert here we've got m and we've got two other gentlemen here you are sort of yours i'm scott russell and ken hill and you guys are part of the yamaha champions riding school which is doing what he champions writing school today we're going to something a little bit different where in this area we're actually going to have to do some writing so we're going to have mc i'm not talking about writing and it's gotten i'll be demonstrating now the floors here a little bit slicker going to affect what you're doing w force great it's great because it really does highlight the things that we're showing at the school of how you apply the brakes to release the brakes and how you put the bike in the right position and of course all these are important things and one of the great things about coming to a show and for those that for some reason might not realize some of the your accomplishments they are while i was i am i supervised champion and nine hundred ninety two and went to the world safer by series all in you're all over the world and we won that with amazing feat ok well i also know that you guys have to get going to get started on some other stuff here we're presentation so i don't take too much for your time you also have a website for more information or anything you want to go to m m p schools dot com r here for the motorcycle show i am yes and your full name is michael caudle and i'm the spokesperson for all twelve shows on the circuit ok so you've taken over from robert yes and he's now working with robert full time with victory he's their internal p r person and you know the show's expanding so this role really case kind of a full time you know aggressive position for me and you know i travel from thursday through sunday hitting all the shows i think i've already hit four of them you know you start to get what city you're in but you know we're here in seattle and excited to be a part of it now this is the first year for a number of years that it has been moved back to the convention center and yes because for many years it was done at qwest field want to be in town and they said yes so as i mean that only be pretty much the same time in december each year now then that's already years yep we're going to try and keep it as consistent as possible we really like this being the fourth stop on the tour we started in san francisco we had to trek to dallas because those were the only dates that worked and back to long beach and then all the way up to the northwest for seattle but now we get you know it's christmas is next week we get a few weeks off and then then we go back east for that the cold spell part of the tour with no buy in detroit taking as that that show was in full stream midway through we had already started making some calls you know we were now les we were unable to aggressively approach him but we did call him and say hey you know we really want to work if you guys we think this will be a great attraction for everybody the show motorcycles on the show floor there's a whole retail outlet you know when you buy a motorcycle it's different than buying a car you got to go to an auto show you look at a car you go to a dealer you buy a car you go home motorcycles are different you need a motorcycle show you look at the bike you go to a dealer you buy the bike before you write off you need  for the young and for the old it's a digital screen where you can spray it on a wall which is another great feature and then we've got the learning curve which has been here in the past where people can come in and learn people come in and learn more about what's going on in the world of motorcycle which where  more cycle helmet in this wider area where the convention center there's a lot more room to move around  learn more about the rest of the two thousand and eleven twelve season and the two thousand and twelve thirteen that will be coming up in december of two thousand and twelve in the seattle area at motorcycle shows dot com
