EP12: Inside the Helmet - Madi Healey
Ahead of the final two rounds of the Penrite ProMX Championship, where the women of the MXW class will again go to battle, we catch up with Shepparton Motorcycles, BCP Honda Australia team rider, Madi Healey, for our latest "Inside the Helmet" feature podcast.
Half-way through her second-year in the senior ranks, Madi currently sits 4th in the points standings, and, beneath the bright and bubbly personality, Madi's drive and determination to succeed are unquestionable as she seeks to move up and cement her position as a true contender in the ProMX MXW class.
We chat to Madi about how she got into racing motocross, her experiences over the years taking on the Hattah Desert Race, current and long term goals in the sport, the mental game of racing, and a bunch of other moto-related topics.
EP9: Industry Guest - Stephen Tuff
I’m genuinely excited to bring you our Industry Guest for this episode, Stephen Tuff, who has joined me here today in the Wolf Den.
"Tuffy" started out his career in the industry working for the biggest dirt-bike print magazine in the country – Australasian Dirt Bike, or ADB as it is more commonly known, way back in 1998.
Since then, Tuffy’s 20-plus year career in the industry has been diverse. A long-time motocross and off-road motorcycling journalist, his career has also seen him working as a photographer, assistant editor, brand manager, and more recently, a bike tester. He also remains a regular contributor to ADB.
Tuffy role has largely been that of a story-teller, using his talents to bring to life stories about events, bikes and other riders, through his words and photos.
In career that has been largely focused on shining the spotlight on those around him, though, the adventures that Tuffy has had in the process, the people he’s met and worked with, and the places he’s been, make his own story just as cool and interesting as anyone he’s covered as a journalist throughout his time in the industry.
