The motorcycle starts
the conversation.
What comes after is usually more interesting.
Every rider carries a different history, different influences and a different reason for being drawn to motorcycles.
CNTS Stories exists to make room for those voices.
There is no one kind of story.
The Beginning
How did motorcycles first become part of your life?
The Turning Point
Was there a person, moment or experience that changed what motorcycles meant to you?
The Meaning
What does being part of motorcycle culture mean to you now?
LIDS OFF
Lids Off is the flagship storytelling series within CNTS.
Around ten minutes with one person, exploring who they are, how motorcycles became part of their life and what matters beyond the machine.
Person first.
CNTS isn’t interested in turning every conversation into a motorcycle review or a highlight reel.
The machine matters, but the story belongs to the person.
That means listening for the small details, the memories, the humour and the moments that make someone feel real.
HOW YOU APPEAR.
Taking part does not automatically mean showing your face, your full identity or every detail of your life.
Different stories can be told through voice, silhouette, details, photographs, motorcycle imagery and other creative approaches.
You don’t need a following.
You don’t need to be an influencer.
You don’t need the most expensive bike.
You don’t need to be a polished presenter.
You just need a story you are willing to explore.
Your story could be next.

EVERY RIDER
HAS A STORY.
We’re interested in the person behind it.
