Peckhammer TV

Peckhammer TV was an Internet TV show that premiered on YouTube on February 5, 2008, and ran until November 2010, with one final episode posted on April 6, 2013. The motorcycle-themed shows often included educational content. Peckhammer TV was produced by David E. Aldrich, a Seattle-based documentary director, cinematographer and independent motorsports journalist.
Peckhammer TV was created by David Aldrich, AKA Peckhammer, who was the writer, director, editor and producer. Aldrich is known in the new media field for his early work in podcasting. Together with his assistant producer, Juliette Pezé ("Girl Wonder"), the two flew around the United States to document the industry and interview notable riders such as racing great Eddie Mulder, and Hollywood stunt woman Alisa Hensley-Lane.
Peckhammer TV operated as an independent, self-financed, nonprofit project. Peckhammer focused on stories that were not usual for television, such as racing support teams. This, and the fact that assistant producer Pezé is tri-lingual and could conduct interviews in several languages, made the show notable.
Peckhammer TV debuted in 2008, and gained an international following. New webisodes were released monthly via several online outlets. The webisode "Bob Milewsky, 2008 Chehalis Classic" was written about in Racer X online magazine. Peckhammer TV videos hosted on YouTube have received more than 1,000,000 views.
Notable Interviews.
Peckhammer interviewed, in "Interview: Eddie Mulder, Racing Legend", Eddie Mulder, who is known for being a leading TT Steeplechase and desert racer of the 1960s, and a Hollywood stunt rider doubling Clint Eastwood on a motorcycle jump stunt in "Magnum Force". Eddie Mulder was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 1999. The interview took place prior to Mulder racing at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb where he holds several records. Mulder, who was sixty-four years old at the time of the interview, discussed the altitude-related health problems he suffered after setting a record in the Vintage Class at PPIHC in 2007.
Peckhammer interviewed, in "Bonneville: Passion, Endurance and Teamwork", Paul and Barbara Friebus regarding their motorcycle performances at the Bonneville Salt Flats. The Friebuses build and restore vintage motorcycles and engines and hold multiple motorcycle land speed records with their bikes.
