Here’s some news that should make that wait to find out whether or not Glenn’s still alive a little more bearable: The Walking Dead’s Norman Reedus will star in a 2016 AMC reality series called Ride with Norman Reedus.

Six one-hour episodes will feature the beloved TWD star roadtripping on his motorcycle, accompanied by a “fellow actor, musician, friend, or local chopper fanatic,” according to AMC.

The Daryl Dixon portrayer will explore motorcycle culture and its history, visit collectors and top motorcycle makers, and make pit stops at bike shops, tattoo parlors, and biker-friendly eateries, while featuring different types of motorcycles every week.

“We love being the home of people’s passion projects, and there is nobody more passionate about motorcycles than Norman Reedus,” AMC exec Joel Stillerman said in a statement. “He is an avid rider and aficionado, who is deeply immersed in motorcycle culture. There is also nobody more fun to hang out with. This show will bring those two elements together for a weekly ride into the incredible world of motorcycles and the people who live and breathe them.”

Added Reedus, “I’m incredibly excited and thankful to AMC for giving me the opportunity to share a passion of mine with our fans, and hopefully a whole new audience. I had a lot of fun filming and exploring, and I hope it shows.”

AMC hasn’t announced an official premiere date for Ride with Norman Reedus, though the second half of The Walking Dead Season 6 will premiere on Feb. 14, providing the opportunity for pairing the shows together to make a very happy Valentine’s Day for fans… who, hopefully, will know by then whether or not Glenn’s still alive.

The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on AMC.
