About this episode
After lots of requests from listeners, Rusty catches up with Garry McCoy at the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix.
They’ve commandeered the commentary box at Phillip Island for the convo before Garry heads off to mentor the next generation in the Oceania Junior Challenge.
It's a wide ranging chat, from how Garry initially wanted to pursue speedway before being catapulted into the 125cc World Championship and the part the legendary Barry Sheene played in helping to open doors. The fun he had racing a young bloke named Valentino Rossi, and getting the chance to throw his leg over those fearsome 500cc machines.... and winning on them.
