About this Episode
This episode is a great chat with MotoAmerica Superbike racer Max Flinders, and his dad, Martin, who helps run the team and does a lot of the work on their Yamaha R1 race bikes. We chat about their last race weekend at Road America a month ago, and the upcoming MotoAmerica Round #2 also being held at Road America this coming weekend. In fact, they are heading there now as I record this introduction. We discuss the 2020 R1 they are hoping to race in this upcoming race weekend, what it has been liking preparing and racing during the COVID-19 pandemic, and also why their team is considered one of the friendliest teams in the MotoAmerica paddock.
This episode was recorded as a live video shown using Facebook Live. So if you prefer, you can check out the video on my Facebook Page “So, you want to ride a Motorcycle?”
Stay tuned as I will be doing as many of these podcast recordings as possible using Facebook Live, usually on Wednesday nights, at 8 pm ET and I will of course continue to make the audio portion available via this podcast. You can email questions for my guests and I prior to the live show using soyouwanttoride@yahoo.com, or even better yet, tune in while we are recording and post your questions online. We will do the best we can to answer all questions while we record. Further instructions will be posted before each live show on my Facebook page.
