Norman Reedus (fan favorite Daryl on The Walking Dead) will be hitting the road for further adventures in Ride with Norman Reedus. AMC has officially renewed the non-fiction travel series for a second season. According to the official announcement, Ride with Norman Reedus‘ second season will consist of six brand new one-hour episodes.

“We’re so excited to continue this journey with Norman Reedus,” stated Joel Stillerman, president of original programming and development for AMC and SundanceTV. “Norman’s love of motorcycles and adventure, and his ability to connect with people are the drivers of this series, and we look forward to more great Rides next season.”


“The reaction to Ride has been incredibly positive. I am glad to be able to show audiences a different side of me and we have gotten a great response to the candid conversation and the fact that it’s obviously not scripted,” said Reedus. “I feel like we are just getting started and there are so many amazing places we have yet to go – the opportunities for the show are endless.”

The series follows motorcycle enthusiast Reedus as he travels around to a variety of amazing locales. Season one included guest stars Balthazar Getty, Robert Rodriguez, Brent Hinds from Mastodon, Jake Lamagno, bike builder Jason Paul Michaels, and artist/biker Imogen Lehtonen. The finale featured Easy Rider star Peter Fonda. Ride with Norman Reedus season one averaged 800k total viewers.

Among the locations visited in season one were Death Valley, the Pacific Coast Highway, Appalachia, Louisiana, Texas, and the Florida Keys.
