    42:18 Jonathan Rea: “I’m 24 years old, won loads of races, but still don’t have the experience to do that every weekend”... 42:55 Simon: “He is going to do some special stuff in the future.” How right he was in 2011! Rea winning four consecutive titles in WSBK. He has got that experience now I guess;) Nice video!

    I really enjoyed that. More riders should do this type of casual interview, people want to know the man behind the mask (helmet).

    Riding properly is an art. No matter how good you are, we never ever take it for granted. It's such a great feeling to get it right, and it only gets better. ;)

    Thank you for sharing this video Simon, you are an inspiration to so many people in the motorcycle community and I appreciate every video you post. I have learned and become aware of several techniques because of your videos. Involving your entire family is so great and rewarding, I did the same thing in my life. My daughters are thankful that I took the time and taught them how to ride motorcycles, some great times we used to spend together riding.
    Keep up the great work man!

    2 of the nicest guys Chris V and Simon love how Simon is wearing his Kiwi Flano country boy in his blood. Such a fantastic vdo and chopper is awesome. Shame about Gino great rider just unlucky with injuries and equipment in his career

    @MrPninja Před 5 lety

    Makes you why Casey retired, from all the crap he did, and family did to get to where he got, which in my opinion the best in the world to throw it all away, because as you said you still have that ich, anyway a huge loss to those who watched him at his finest nest, real waste

    • @taffgriff69
      @taffgriff69 Před 5 lety +1

      Agreed.....a lot of so called motorcycle fans gave casey shit (including myself at times) the saying is true "you don't know what you got until it's gone" I can't help but feel he stopped way to early....he was in the peek of his career, all that sacrifice and to just stop!? It's not our choice though....racing is a brutal living I guess....we only get to see the glitz and glamour really....we don't see all the struggles, injuries and low times....money worries etc etc
