26 minutes | Tuesday, 11 November 2025

In this episode, we chat with Lee McGavock, a road racer whose journey is fuelled by family support, determination, and a love of speed.
From buying a pizza shop to balancing life, work, and training, Lee shares the real story behind the leathers.
He talks about career highlights, sponsorship challenges, and why the joy of the journey matters just as much as the finish line - all while aiming for the Manx Grand Prix in 2026.

 This is another down-to-earth conversation about passion, perseverance, and the pursuit of a racing dream.
