Highside/Lowside podcast: Returning to motorcycles after 40 years

Apr 07, 2026

Is it ever too late to start riding a motorcycle? Or come back to riding?

Joining Zack and Spurgeon on this episode of the Highside/Lowside motorcycle podcast is Tim Harris, President of the Los Angeles Lakers. Harris rode from age 16 to 22 and then spent the next four decades "frozen in motorcycle ice" while building a family and a career. Now back in the saddle in his 60s, Tim shares the hilarious and humble reality of relearning the "friction zone" and surviving the "intervention" of worried coworkers. His enthusiasm for motorcycling shows that even a long-delayed second act can be the best one.
