TORQ MOTO #9 - TOMMY SEARLE ARENACROSS EXCLUSIVE - Fast in the sand?

Motocross and Arenacross Champ Tommy Searle is no stranger to being interviewed or being on a podcast, as sits down for a candid chat with Torq Moto hosts DocWob and Jeffro. Arguably the best British motocross rider of his generation and now seemingly bridging the gap to the next generation of British and World MX racers through his very popular vlogs on his YouTube channel and the ‘2 Pro, 1 Slow’ podcast with friends Billy Bolt and Ed Warren, Tommy swings by to the Torq Moto studio to chew the fat on his time in the sport.

Rather than talking mostly about current affairs in motocross and his life, Tommy talks more to DocWob and Jeffro about his illustrious career, his rivalries and relationships with Tony Cairoli and Jeffrey Herlings, and what his time was like racing and living in the America and sharing that adventure with Ed as two young men far from home. Also, on the agenda is how much fun he’s now having and in particular racing last year’s VMXDN at Foxhill and taking it indoors to race the Arenacross UK tour, which he won in 2023, but already has his back up against the wall in his defence of the title for 2024 as he explains. Tommy also tells how his journey in motocross all started and the relaxed influence his parents have had on his career and how he’s going to try to avoid being a stereotypical ‘MX Dad’. The trio also discuss the potential future of young British riders such as Bobby Bruce and Billy Askew and how the UK MX scene compares with Europe. As usual there’s loads of topics discussed in the hour or so long show and no doubt Tommy will be in again further down the line for another chat as even he was left wanting more. There’s even an unexpected guest that drops in on the sofa.

So, stay tuned.
