Off Track Podcast

This week we make a return to stately Laceby Manor as former Grand Prix racer and Senior TT winner Roger Burnett joins us to discuss the world of rider management. Rog guided both James Toseland and Neil Hodgson to WorldSBK success and a helping hand with a host of riders through the years. These days Rog puts all his attention into Ryan Vickers and was instrumental in the deal that has taken Ryan to Motocorsa Ducati and his own fledgling career in WorldSBK.

You know this bit by now, unless  you’re new to us, and if you are then welcome along! While you’re here drop us a follow on whichever platform you listen on and give us a follow on the socials – all the links are in the show description along with our patreon page and merch page through HMY Customs.

After their well-received Off Track debut back in March, Jordan and Frank make their return to the show after successfully completing their maiden full British Superbike Championship season with their rider Glenn Irwin. Bringing home 8 wins, a 2nd and a 3rd and not forgetting that historic week on the North Coast of Northern Ireland where the team collected another three wins and Glenn made history as the most successful superbike rider around the NW200 course, it was an incredible first year for the pair.

Enjoy!

As we’ve discussed many times on the show, commentary is THE most divisive subject among race fans. We all have our favourites, many yearn for the old days, and make no mistake it’s not a job I fancy as my skin is nowhere near thick enough! Thankfully my guest this week is the one of the most recognisable and best loved voices in motorcycle racing over the last 20 years and more. 

From WorldSBK to MotoGP, and forming iconic commentary partnerships with Keith Huewen and Toby Moody along the way, this fine man was the mainstay of World level motorcycle racing as co-commentator to some of the defining moments in our sports history and it was a real pleasure to sit alongside him and listen to his stories.

Please drop a follow on whichever platform you listen on and if you’ve a minute more fire in a review – the more interaction we get the more people can find us the longer we can keep this show on the road.

Anyway, enough from me, settle in… this is the wonderful JULIAN RYDER

My guest this week is the Bennetts British Superbike Champion of 2022 – after lifting the title with OMG Racing my guest switched attention to the WorldSBK championship for '23 and '24 and while the results weren’t as many of us and Brad had hoped he makes his return to the Bennetts British Superbike championship a faster more complete rider and one that’s hungry to retain his title with his old team of OMG Racing

Anyway, enough from me, settle in… this is the exceptional Brad Ray

Welcome to Off Track Podcast this week’s guest makes his return despite his insistence that last time was the last time – let me say now that the show isn’t a q&a interview as you’ve become used to, it’s a rare proper chat so we do step over each other from time to time. You hear more from me than usual with Howie not spending so much time in the paddock this season but it’s great to have him back on – when I left I thought we’d done about an hour but no, it was much more than that!

Anyway, settle in… this is the excellent Michael Howarth 

ENJOY!

From winning the Superstock title last season then being stripped of it almost immediately, to the planets aligning for the opportunity of a lifetime to contest the Endurance World Championship with one of the most recognised teams in the championship was a chance he seized with both hands to become 2024 Endurance World Champion with Yoshimura SERT Suzuki alongside teammates Etienne Masson and Greg Black.  A deserved turnaround in fortune for Dan Linfoot.

This is an absolutely fascinating episode proudly sponsored by 1p mobile, the UK's cheapest PAYG mobile tariff. It’s been 11 years since I last sat down with this Josh Brookes on his own and it's a show I’ve very much looked forward to doing since we refreshed and relaunched our show back in Feb ’23. In those 11 years he’s won two British Superbike titles, podiumed at Suzuka, ridden to second place in the Senior TT and extended his personal best lap around the island to over 134 mph. The last two seasons of BSB with FHO Racing haven’t quite gone to plan but the hunger and desire to win are still very evident.

Enjoy!

Motorcycle racing can give the highest of highs while retaining the ability to kick you when you’re down and my guest this week has seen his fair share of both. His talent has never been in doubt but his career thus far has never quite fulfilled that talent. For 2024 Fraser Rogers made his return to the Bennetts British Superbike championship with TAG Honda where despite a serious MX crash earlier in the summer the Gloucestershire rider has been a regular points scorer as he relishes a new lease of life with the team. It’s been a rough ride over the years and Fraser is brutally honest about the mistakes he’s made and the dark places he’s found himself.

Enjoy!
