Wrapped up the summer season at Gillman Speedway (Official Page) on a high last night. Again the Quickest bike on track for the night and fastest I’ve ever been around the place and new personal bests to show for it, absolutely stoked!

It hasn’t all been smooth sailing this season. Plenty of highs, a few lows, and a lot of nights where I was right there but just couldn’t quite finish it off. But every lap has counted and there’s been a lot of them.

The improvement, the lessons, and the confidence I’ve built are what I’ll take away most.

The off-season doesn’t mean slowing down. The work continues, and the focus is already on coming back stronger.

The dream hasn’t changed — just the size of the goals.

Big thanks to my great team of sponsors and to everyone who’s supported me along the way, whether it’s advice, encouragement, or just backing me. And to the photographers, clubs, officials, and volunteers none of this happens without you.

Already looking towards next season!

RACE DAY!

Final skid of the season tonight at Gillman Speedway (Official Page) and we’re going out with a bang!

Plenty of variety in the fields with the classics also on the program, so it should be a great night of racing all around.

The Bob White Sidecar Cup is set for Saturday 21 March — and it’s shaping up to be a huge night!

See you trackside for an epic night of racing 🔥
