But the best bits are a fantastic WSBK season end review with James Whitham, interview with Simon Pavey who's off to his 9th Dakaar (with his son Llewelyn), and of course Josh Hayes answering your questions. Plus episode 1 of Temples of Speed (Salzburgring) from Steve Brookes. Bits of news, a stack attack, and boom, off we go. We shall return in January of 2013 so until then, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year and ciao, lates, and ta-ta.
Jules Cisek and Jim Race are together once again to go over listener email, chat about recent developments during the silliest of seasons and generally wreak havoc on the show before they head to Indianapolis for USGP #2 this week. Join us for some speculation, brash commentary and general tomfoolery.
