It's funny how quickly you can mess up your own head, isn't it. We are our own worst enemy and sometimes making yourself stop, evaluate things from an outside perspective, and reset, can completely change the decisions and paths we end up taking.
I did a lot of endurance racing back in 2021 and rode for the British Endurance Racing Team (BERT), which was run by David Railton. I really enjoyed the gig: riding motorbikes is the best feeling in the world along with shagging, I guess - so to ride a 1000cc race bike for hours on end, right through the night, pretty much ticks all the boxes. The British Endurance team started with a UK race, then two rounds of the World Endurance, which was mega and a proper eye-opener, and we did the big European round at Spa, which was a six-hour race, but at the end of 2021 it was clear that BERT wasn't giving it another year - and I was out on my ear.

Sensational Suzuki Live - Blending decades of motorcycles, racing legends, track time and a beer tent with a cracking band, Suzuki Live's formula proved a winner for the thousands there.
Blending decades of motorcycles, racing legends, track time and a beer tent with a cracking band, Suzuki Live’s formula proved a winner for the thousands there. As motorcycling events go, Suzuki Live's 2024 effort is surely set to take some topping. Held over two days at the iconic Cadwell Park circuit, the event played host to a list of two-wheeled legends and a mixed bag of iconic Suzuki machinery spanning five decades.

It's been a busy old month but so good being back in the thick of it. Despite the great British weather, it finally feels like summer is here, and I've been all over the place with some really great events since we spoke last month.

It's a long time since I had that feeling... 1057 days, to be precise, and if you were to ask if 'that day' was the day it would happen again, then I would have bet all my worldly belongings against it.

LONGTERMER KAWASAKI ZX-6R
Last month, I was gearing up to consign my ZX-6R to the back of my garage while I disappeared for the best part of three weeks to work at the TT with Batham's Racing.
YAMAHA WABASH RT
When you live a life of wheelies, burnouts and fast laps on race tracks, it's hard to spot a midlife crisis... but six months on in the saddle of Yamaha's Wabash e-bike, I daresay that's exactly where I'm at. I'll be honest, cycling isn't for everyone, and quite frankly, Lycra is even more polarising, but for me, life on two wheels, be it powered or pedalled, has formed my staple diet for as long as I can remember.
