If nothing else, it's the sure choice for those who believe that it might be cool to be
a former motorcycle racing champion, but it's cooler to be a grouchy, jaded journalist.
Suffice to say, the plot doesn't really matter that much (Shepard is Jon Baker,
a former motorcycle racing star turned rookie CHiPs officer, and Michael Pena is Frank «Ponch» Poncherello, an FBI agent going undercover to ferret out crooked California Highway Patrol officers).
