    Work Hard, Race Harder: First SRA GP Off-Road Race with Mark Jardiolin [S2 E49]

    Mark and I had one hectic week. Between business ownership and day jobs, plus our plumbing needed a major repair we didn't feel ready to race at Golden State Championship. Racing was part of the weekend plan, so I looked elsewhere for the challenge we were hoping for and signed up for SRA GP at Glen Helen Raceway. Big hill surprises, baby bird omelets, and finding our limits were some of the great highlights of the weekend. Tune in and find out how mailboxes on snowy hills can relate. Thank you to Abbie for encouraging me to race the SRA GP. Thank you to Andrew for helping fix my dirt bike exhaust leak. Thank you to Mark for taking pics, supporting my dreams, and being an enthusiastic partner. ........................................................

    Dirt First: The Ultimate Safety Gear with MotoVentures [S2 E45]

    Motorcycling is a game of risk management, but for many, the stakes are higher than they realize. With motocross cited as one of the most dangerous sports for children and off-road riding accounting for a staggering number of preventable injuries, the question isn't just how we ride, but how we learn. Studies show that professional coaching can slash injury risk by up to 60%, yet many dirt riders still rely on "trial and error." In this episode, I talk with Andre, owner and operator of MotoVentures, to discover the how and why of the Dirt First curriculum that his father developed to help riders with bike handling, providing the ultimate "safety gear" every rider is missing.
