Winter. Come on, how crap is it in terms of riding? I mean, Me, Dangerous and Boothy have had a mega season of racing this year, but to be honest, we just didn’t want it to end; and the fact we still can’t decide which one of us is the quickest means it can’t just yet (although spoiler alert, it’s definitely my good self). Yet every year, Mother Nature has her say, the weather changes, and all of a sudden we’re racing to pick up the biggest turkeys, rather than racing around a racetrack. And you know what? It had us thinking – we hadn’t even packed up from our final round of endurance racing and we were already hungry for more. Over the last couple of years we’ve had the odd off-road long termer here or minimoto race there, but just imagine how good it would be if we could keep on racing the whole year round? You know, keep that adrenaline buzzing, those bike skills razor sharp (or blunt, if you’re Bruce) and that smile on our faces that only two-wheeled internal combustion can bring?
