Actresses Katee Sackhoff and Tricia Helfer prepare for their 2500 mile trip from Los Angeles to Louisiana with the help of Heather Lewis as they test which BMW bikes they want to take on the trip and practice maneuvers to prepare them for any unpredictable weather conditions and unforeseen problems which may arise.
"The LA La Ride" is a charity ride to raise money and awareness for the Gulf in regards to the BP oil spill disaster and is in conjunction with the Gulf Restoration Network. BMW has graciously donated the bikes Katee and Tricia will be riding.
