Time for an appointment with the ‘Doctor’

It’s time to sit down and listen to what the Doctor says, because this week’s Torq Moto Podcast show driven by Talon welcomes U.S Supercross and Motocross legend and all-around bloody good guy Doug ‘The Doctor’ Dubach. Of course, Doug isn’t a real Doctor, but his extensive knowledge of the sport and his long-term relationship with Yamaha as an R&D test rider warrant the nickname. Doug was right there in the thick of it when American Motocross started to boom, especially growing up as a kid riding the hills of Southern California and has been involved in the sport for over 50 years. 

Join hosts ‘Jeffro’ Perrett and Doc Wobs as they catch up with Doug on the sofas of their makeshift studio at Talon Engineering, where the trio were on hand celebrating Talon’s 50th Anniversary and listen to Doug’s take on growing up in California as motocross really took root in the USA, what it was like to race AMA Supercross in the 80’s and 90’s and actually win a round! Doug also discusses his love for racing and why he’s still at it in his sixties and in particular being an honorary Brit and coming over to race the VMXDN year after year as well as his role as Yamaha US’s bLU cRU brand ambassador. And, of course, Wobs couldn’t let him leave the sofa without talking about his involvement in the development of the YZ400F, which effectively changed the game and put an end to 2 Stroke racing at the sharp end of the sport. It’s all good stuff and in typical Doug style, he’s so laid back and smooth in conversation. The Doug Dubach interview on the Torq Moto Podcast Show will drop this Thursday 18th on YouTube, Spotify and Apple, where you’ll also find all the previous shows.

This week’s Torq Moto Podcast Show sees part two of the Stephen Sword interview. In episode one ‘Swordy’ opened up on his illustrious MX racing career and looked back in great detail, from where it all started, living near Lockerbie, Scotland and being a Team Green youth rider through to his best years racing the 125cc and MX2 world motocross championship where he held the red plate until bad luck and injuries ended his quest for a world title, before moving into MX1. In this episode, Stephen talks about how his racing career came to a close and what he did once it all stopped to where he is now as a riding coach. He also discusses the current state of the sport, the modern-day crop of riders, and racing in the Evo scene with hosts DocWob and Jeffro Perrett. In particular, Farleigh Castle and what it’s like riding a CR500 when the throttle sticks wide open! Throughout both interviews, we see an informative, relaxed and enthusiastic Swordy, arguably a side of his personality not many people got to see in his racing heyday. It’s all good stuff from a man who kept his cards close to his chest during his racing career. Don't forget to like and subscribe, as the Torq Moto team will be out in force at VMXDN Foxhill filming four live podcast shows over the event - coming to a screen near you soon! 

This week’s Torq Moto Podcast Show driven by Talon welcomes back Honda HRC’s senior team advisor Roger Harvey to continue the conversation about his life in motocross. Following on from episode one of the Roger Harvey interview, hosts ‘Doc Wobs’ and ‘Jeffro’ Perrett fire questions Roger’s way regarding his time in the sport post once his racing career came to an end. As always with ‘Harv’ it’s a great conversation with plenty of interesting insight on the industry and of course, more fascinating and funny stories from a man who has seen pretty much everything there is to see in the sport from both sides of the fence. The trio discuss how and why Roger decided to call it a day on his racing to then start focusing on training schools, to great effect, which then led to managing motocross programs in the U.K. for Yamaha, Kawasaki and ultimately Honda where he still plays a huge part in their success but now more on a global scale. They also discuss the future development of off-road motorcycles, the electric movement and where Roger sees it all going. Not only from his point of view but also from where Honda’s future intentions may lie. And of course, Wobs and Jeffro couldn’t let him leave without talking about Honda HRC’s current stars, Tim Gajser and the Lawrence Brothers. Part two of the Roger Harvey interview on the Torq Moto Podcast Show driven by Talon will air this Thursday evening on Torq Moto’s YouTube channel as well as Spotify and Apple.
