    23.11 | Skyler Howes - Absorbing a 25G Impact, Dakar Rally, & joining Team HRC

    Skyler Howes recently announced that he has joined the Monster Energy Honda Rally Team (Rally Team HRC). His rally contract with Husqvarna Motorcycles ended early, with both sides deciding to go separate directions. This new opportunity with Honda allows Howes to keep growing in rally, while also looking for four wheel racing and adventures. The rally season didn't start off as planned for Howes though. He had a massive get off at the Rally of Morocco during the prologue. The airbag recorded that his head hit the dirt at 25g's, which is a CRAZY amount of g-forces. The extent of his injuries weren't as bad as they could have been. Howes is already back to light training, expecting to start rally training again soon. The idea of doing what Howes did, racing Rally as a privateer, is a dream for many. We discuss the costs it would take to make that dream a reality. The Malle Moto class sounds fun, but you'd need to be ready to beat yourself up while spending a huge chunk of change. I'll say it now though, I'm in! Nutrition and hydration are also an important part of being at the top of your game for rally racing. The amount of calories they consume, and the fact that they use condom catheters, was a lot to take in. I eat a ton of calories now, but for a race like the Dakar Rally, I'd have to really step my game! New video idea, test out different condom catheters (maybe not). Huge congrats to Skyler Howes on his signing with Team HRC Rally. He's riding a works factory rally bike, and looking to win the Dakar Rally. We wish him the best. We also hope there's a chance to ride his rally bike in the future. We can all dream, right?!?! Support the show

    23.9 | Trystan Hart - Becoming a World Class Hard Enduro Racer

    There’s no denying that Trystan Hart is now one of the top Hard Enduro racers around the world. He’s been riding for the FMF KTM Factory Offroad Racing Team since 2020, all while steadily gathering podiums, building confidence, and winning high profile events. It was fun to hear him describe himself as steady, and someone like Billy Bolt as Flashy. I very much agree! This podcast episode dug a bit deeper in the back story of Trystan and his early motocross journey. It was cool to hear that Loretta Lynn’s Amateur National Motocross was once on his family's radar. An unfortunate femur injury kept that from happening, but it did give us some humorous discussions about full-body casts. Something that’s also cool to see is that he recently launched a book, Hard Enduro Hero, that’s now available on Amazon. I hope this book gives younger audiences a way to see they can accomplish whatever dream they have with some hard work, dedication, and staying focused on being authentic to themselves.  Thank you Trystan Hart for your time! It’s been a pleasure to watch you grow through the ranks of Endurocross and Hard Enduro. Excited to see where your racing takes you!
