The Off-Camber Podcast

I finally got to sit down with Wes Williams to chat about how he got into shooting dirt bikes in the first place, his earliest days as Goat Kreations and the formation of VurbMoto. We go through the highlights and lows of VurbMoto and what finally shut it down...and how he moved on.

In the latest episode of "The Off-Camber Podcast, Presented by Specialized", I sit down with Ryan Sipes and Cody Webb to talk Erzberg, hard enduro, flat track, moto, and everything Sipes has up his sleeve!

Mike McAndrews is a true legend of the suspension world, getting his start for Fox's motocross team in the early moto days before moving on to factory Kawasaki as Jeff Ward's wrench, turning them one more time for Bob Hannah as he also started Factory Connection suspension. From there he made his way to Rockshox, then to Specialized, off to Fox shocks, and back to Specialized where he resides today above all suspension related development and duties for the big S. Enjoy episode six of The Off-Camber Podcast, presented by Specialized.

For the fifth episode of "The Off-Camber Podcast / Presented by Specialized" I sit down with my friend Kristian Kibby, who other than being a transplant from Australia can be found wandering around the Geico Honda race shop in search of more power or at the races plotting his next unique meal. Kibby has an interesting journey from wrenching for a few unique and big names before landing a gig at the beginning of the four stroke era to develop engines at Factory Connection Racing, better known as Geico Honda.

For episode 4 of "The Off-Camber Podcast, presented by Specialized", Robby Bell walks us through his early years and success in Baja, the demons and failures that followed him after, making his US based career work and ultimately winning three WORCS titles. Since then, Robby has gone on to be team manager of the outfit he started "Chaparral Motorsports/Precision Concepts Kawasaki"

For the third episode of "The Off-Camber Podcast, presented by Specialized" I caught up with Davi Millsaps who's living the retired life in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. While this was his destination for retirement, he ended up there a year early due to a career-ending crash and subsequent injury. Davi walks us through what he remembers of the crash and the following months, and how the concussion has effected his emotions, vision, and day-to-day...along with his recovery and what's left to face. We also chat about being BMX dad as his son Dane races nearly every weekend.

Prior Motocross/Supercross star turn Rally racer, Andrew Short, is the subject for the second episode of The Off-Camber Podcast, presented by Specialized. In this conversation you'll get to hear Short's true passion for this form of racing, as it's not just the racing itself he loves...but the adventure that comes with it. He also covers how he came about the switch, as he didn't grow up in the desert or wide-open conditions you'd expect from a Rally hopeful. Make sure you subscribe to catch these weekly episodes!

In the debut episode of "The Off-Camber Podcast, Presented by Specialized" we chat with Donn Maeda (AKA SwapMoto) about the recent closing of Transworld Motocross, the title he launched back in 2000 and was Editor in Chief of until it was shuttered in February of 2019. Donn and some of his previous co-workers have already enacted plan B with his "SwapMoto Live" nametag, as purchasing TWMX became unclear, which he breaks down in detail...before chatting about what the future holds. We also take a moment to talk about his love of cycling and how his family effected his path through life in the moto industry, most notably his older brother Ross Maeda.
