© 2025 Motorcycle Racing Podcast: Off Track With Carruthers And Bice
Description
You won’t find two people in the MotoAmerica paddock with more racing knowledge than Paul Carruthers and Sean Bice. 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. The podcast launched in 2018, and the list of interviewees from the show’s eight years reads like a who’s who of motorcycle racing. From “King” Kenny Roberts, to six-time MotoAmerica Superbike Champion Cameron Beaubier, to World Champions like Kevin Schwantz, Wayne Rainey and Ben Spies, the list is long as the show homes in on the 350-episode mark.

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...

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 ...
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 w...
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...
Dunlop tire tester/part-time road racer Taylor Knapp wears many hats.

Never one (or two) to miss an opportunity to chat with Knapp, we cornered the soft-spoken racing veteran to talk about racing, tire testing, and much more on this episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.

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 firs...
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. Estenso...
Motorcycle companies aren’t normally owned by engineers, but maybe they should be. 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. A perfect fit for a company that manufactures track-day and race bikes, including the purpose-built Krämer APX-350 MA that is being raced in MotoAmerica’s new Parts Unlimited By Motul Talent Cup. We caught up with Karvonen at the r...
Five-time MotoAmerica Superbike Champion Cameron Beaubier and four-time champion Josh Hayes are tied at the top of the all-time AMA road race win list with 89 wins apiece. That’s a combined total of 178 career wins between the two former rivals and fast friends. We wrangled both of them to join us on this week's episode of the Off Track With Carruthers and Bice podcast to talk about the past, the present, and the future, as both will be chasing win number 90 this weekend at Road America. Supp...
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 w...
It would be difficult to find a more suited MotoAmerica Chief Medical Officer than Dr. Carl Price. Who better to assist an injured motorcycle racer than a doctor who has been riding and racing motorcycles since his childhood? We got the chance to chat with the personable Dr. Price on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice to talk about the serious side of our sport - injuries and how to treat them. This week's podcast focuses specifically on the new groundbreaking Abbott te...

Laid-back South African Dominic Doyle, who now calls Columbus, Indiana, home, is a bonafide championship contender in the 2025 MotoAmerica SC-Project Twins Cup Championship. 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 ...
Mallory Dobbs is living the dream. Despite getting a late start to motorcycling and ultimately motorcycle racing at the age of 22, Dobbs is most definitely making up for lost time. In 2023, Dobbs raced in both MotoAmerica Supersport and the Mission Super Hooligan National Championship. And the next thing you know, she's off racing in Europe in the new FIM Women's Circuit Racing World Championship. We caught up with the world traveler from her hotel room in Spain just a week after competing in...

He was also the team manager for Bob MacLean's World Championship Motorsports (WCM) team that fielded such racers as Simon Crafar and John Hopkins. We caught up with Clifford at the Red Bull Grand Prix of The Am...
