Airhead 247 Podcast: Chris Hodgson (part 2)

His motorcycle career started in earnest in the early 70’s as a mechanic at BMW of Denver, followed by a long successful tenure at San Jose BMW. Chris helped lead the San Jose BMW race team to numerous victories, establishing BMW and the 247 platform as more than a humble touring machine. He later launched CC products and became a leader in aftermarket parts and development for BMW and other brands. Chris eventually came full circle and purchased San Jose BMW, which is still a family run dealership today.
