In the high-speed world of motorcycle road racing, the thrill of the chase comes hand in hand with risk, resilience, and reflection.

In this episode, Damian Horan and Andy McAllister open up about a season that didn’t go quite to plan - the setbacks, the hopeful comebacks, and the lessons learned along the way.

From the physical toll of recovery to the mental battle of getting back on the bike, this honest and down-to-earth conversation shines a light on what it really takes to return to the Startline.

It’s a story of perseverance, passion, and the unbreakable spirit that fuels every racer on the road to the Manx Grand Prix.
