In case you need an escape, and riding is not an easy option right now, I recently discovered this Utube channel.

Access MC - Access to Motorcycling
"
Description
In the early 1990s, there was very little motorcycle programming on TV. Norm Kern of Dayton, Ohio, created a series on motorcycle sport and touring to air on public access channels. Each episode is a half hour documentary of a motorcycle event, mostly amateur events in southern Ohio.

The show was shot on prosumer Hi8 camcorders and edited onto Super VHS masters, which were dubbed to produce distribution copies, also on Super VHS. It got a lot of attention from cable access people because it was shot and edited like film at a time when most cable access programs were talking heads shot with two cameras in a studio.

The series won numerous awards, airing on cable systems in Dayton, Columbus, Cincinnati and Athens, Ohio, as well as Lansing, Michigan.

Access MC gained a considerable following and received financial support from motorcycle clubs and dealers. Dave Despain did a segment on the show in his Motoworld TV show in 1993. "


Whole bunch of videos, from trials to flat track. looks like it's a locally produced TV show from the 90s, there's a few gems in there.

The one of the 93 Lima race is great, the start of Ricky Graham's comeback that year. There's some interesting stuff going on in this video, watch it to see for yourself.

If you have Netflix and have not watched this, I highly recommend it.

Chelsea's Rickman.


There have been several articles in "The Classic Motorcycle" about Chelsea and her building and riding this bike. The latest story was about her traveling to the Mojave Desert and riding a borrowed Rickman.
