  • Well said!

    Guys, fantastic podcast, really enjoy the format, JT’s interview was great, have heard him on CTR but he touched on other subjects so both interviews are great and not just the same.

    Dougie was also excellent, very insightful and funny. Talking about funny, McGuiness, very good.

    Great depth of knowledge from you both.

    But love what you guys are doing even without special guests, to quote the McGuiness’ “you are beautiful, keep doing what you are doing” 😉Nice

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

🏁 EPISODE 27 – THE FINALE: RYDE v REDDING! 🏆🔥
Q: How do I make more progress when I'm obviously knocking on the door of pushing too hard?
James Whitham says fast riders learn to reach the limit without exceeding it. He recommends identifying the specific reason for each crash so the rider can learn from it and avoid repeating the same mistake.
🏁 EPISODE 27 – THE FINALE: RYDE v REDDING! 🏆🔥
Q: Thoughts on Brands, 53 point lead?
Kyle Ryde says he would have gladly taken a 53-point advantage at the start of the season and intends to maintain his approach, enjoy racing and let the weekend unfold.
🏁Inside the Padgett Racing Dynasty with Clive Padgett | Ep.26 Part 2
Q: What has been Clive's bargain basement bike and what has been the one that cost more than it should have?
Clive explains the 'bargain basement' bike as a rebuilt 250cc project assembled from inexpensive, repurposed parts, which nonetheless achieved significant success in classic TT racing, illustrating the value of resourcefulness and ingenuity over price. The more expensive example highlighted was a Harris Wiser R500 project they were invited to work on, which carried a much larger budget and prestige.
PETER HICKMAN: TT Lap Record Holder | The Road Racing Legend - Ep.25 Part 2
Q: What motivated you to pursue the TT and keep racing when BSB options became scarce?
The primary motivation was to keep racing in a competitive environment, not about money or fame. It was about staying active in the sport, maintaining a link to high-level competition, and building a business that could sustain riders and a team while pursuing growth across different championships.
Episode 26 - PART 1 I Assen Showdown, Bulega Crowned & Alex Lowes 🏁
Q: What's your take on the Ducatis dominating and whether the sport should change to balance the field?
There's recognition that the Ducati's setup and rider skill create a competitive edge, but there's skepticism about changing the rules with the aim of balancing the field; the hosts argue that fans value clean, hard racing and that regulation changes should preserve competition without erasing the advantages good teams earn.
