Peter Clifford is the director of rider development and media for the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup, or, as he refers to it, the "Headmaster." Prior to being the man in charge of the Rookies Cup program, Clifford was a motojournalist who covered MotoGP before it was called MotoGP. He was also the team manager for Bob MacLean's World Championship Motorsports (WCM) team that fielded such racers as Simon Crafar and John Hopkins. We caught up with Clifford at the Red Bull Grand Prix of The Americas in Austin, Texas, recently to chat about that as well as MotoAmerica's new Parts Unlimited Talent Cup By Motul, and what the riders who get invited to the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup tryouts can expect.Support the show

Will 2025 bring new features and segments to the show? Will the loyal souls of Patreon finally get something worthwhile from these three miscreants? Will 2025 be even bigger and better than 2024?

Sometimes it's hard to do justice to the magnificence that is Moto GP racing and, as you'd expect, our three hosts generally fail in the endeavour. But like a plain girl at a party, if you give them a chance they'll show you that what they lack in looks and grace they make up for in enthusiasm for the task and a willingness to try pretty much anything. Sure, Borrie is no Shakespeare but his poem somehow always finds the mark. Freido's horoscope is, mathematically, implausible. And yet it entertains, and at the end of the day that's all we hope to do. Well that and get rich. So give the plain girl a chance and hit play. Even better, buy her a metaphorical drink first by signing up for the Patreon Pit Crew. Guaranteed she will appreciate it and you'll feel better about yourself, too.

A week unsupervised at the Island followed by a studio session with the only grown up member of the team missing. What could possibly go wrong? As soon as you've signed up for patreon, come back and press play to find out. Did Borrie's poem go off the rails? Yes. Is Rossi's weekly email one of the best yet? Also yes.

No man is an island BUT no island is a man, either. Even if it has a man's name. Like Philip. Which, when you think about it, is a great name for one of the best motorcycle racing circuits in the world, one that dished up another magnificent weekend of racing. Many of you would have had the frankly terrifying/exhiliarating experience of meeting one or more of the boys at the race but here is a taste of what they were getting up to when they weren't talking to you. Warning: includes a healthy dose of actual analysis thanks to the presence of none other than Simon Crafar. If that doesn't tempt you perhaps you might need to find another hobby.

Do you want the good news or the bad news first? OK, we'll start with the bad. There's no Boris on the Greatest Motorcycling Podcast in the Universe this week. Tragic, we know, but there's good news, too: the big fella still sent in a poem! That's just one of the highlights as Freido and Tug pick up the slack and talk all things motorcycle racing - and plenty of stuff that's not - including The Captain's Letter, Rossi's Instructions, correspondence from Jorge and more.

Nobody asked for it. Nobody wanted it. And yet, somehow, one can't look away when they see/hear it. Ep 140 of The Greatest Motorcycling Podcast In The Universe will go down in history as the day the Pee Gees were born. Calling on all the lack of self awareness that has somehow brought them the success they currently enjoy, our three hosts decide today is the day they sing. Together. Is it awful? Yes. Yet somehow compelling. But we'll let you be the judge. In other news there's also some interesting chat about motorcycles and motorcycle racing plus a special guest drops into the studio.

They said we'd never make it and to be fair, that seemed a reasonable analysis at the time. But five years to the day and 138 episodes since the Greatest Motorcycling Podcast in the Universe was launched and we're still here in all our glory. Is the show infantile? Yes. Is it puerile? Yes. Is it so laced with profanity that the 'C' word often makes an appearance before the intro music even starts? Also yes. Moto PG is all of those things but more importantly than any of them is that it's popular, and that's thanks to you, the listeners. We don't know why you listen and we don't really care.

Few Moto GP podcasts tackle the real issues like the three intrepid hosts of The Greatest Motorcycling Podcast In The Universe. Sure, they're issues unrelated to Moto GP racing but that doesn't mean they're not real issues. Episode 138 is a fabulous example. Not only did it spawn the episode title (yes, somebody actually said this on the show) but includes Freido dialling in from Europe, Borrie reciting his poem, Rossi's instructions and a deeply philosophical edition of The Captain's letter.

'Rich Germany' delivered the most boring race of the year but just because the riders let you down doesnt mean the Greatest Motorcycling Podcast In The Universe will. Siftng through the smouldering ashes of the dumpster fire that was the weekend, our three dashing podcasters offer up analysis (a stretch), stupidity (standard), profanity (mandatory) and the usual peurile nonsense that you've come to know and love.

A MotoGP nyári szünete ugyan már véget ért, mi még csak most tértünk vissza teljesen a szabadságról, de cserébe hosszú adással készültünk. Beszélünk a MotoGP 75. szülinapját ünneplő Silverstonei hétvégéről, ahol láthattunk menő retro fényezéseket és egész jó versenyeket. Egy dolgot viszont nem láthattunk, nézőket. Emiatt pedig a szülinapnak nem lett igazán ünnepi hangulata. A pilótapiacon is történtek bejelentések, illetve komoly változások, ezeket is alaposan kitárgyaljuk, de szót ejtünk Carmelo Ezpeleta nyilatkozatairól, Simon Crafar kinevezéséről, és természetesen Ausztriára is előre tekintünk.
Paddock Pass Podcast - Motorcycle Racing - MotoGP - World Superbike
Adam, David and Neil have a diverse collection of questions from listeners for this week's show: Silverstone attendance, rider movements, liveries, Simon Crafar and more.
El Mundial de MotoGP llegó a su ecuador el pasado fin de semana en Silverstone, donde Pecco Bagnaia recriminó duramente la actitud de Marc Márquez buscando rueda en la Q2, lo que catalogó de "ridículo". Izaskun Ruiz se une una vez más a Uri Puigdemont, Germán Garcia Casanova y Alberto Gomez en el podcast MotoGP 'Por Orejas', de Motorsport Network, y con ella analizamos la espectacular puesta en escena del gran premio en el que se conmemoró el 75 aniversario del Mundial de Motociclismo. Todos los equipos lucieron decoraciones vintage e incluso los presentadores de televisión se vistieron de época para la ocasión, que resultó ser un éxito por todo lo alto. Entrando en materia deportiva, el fin de semana británico vivió el primer doblete de la carrera de Enea Bastianini, que nunca antes había hecho podido en una sprint los sábados, y que esta vez se llevó la victoria en ambas carreras, sumando 37 puntos de una tacada. Eso, además de empinarle en la general hasta el tercer puesto, le coloca muy cerca, matemáticamente, de los dos primeros, que tras las carreras del fin de semana han vuelto a intercambiar posiciones, con Jorge Martín por delante de Bagnaia. ¿Va a entrar Bastianini, otro de los miembros de la 'diáspora' de Ducati a final de temporada, en la lucha por el título? Disparidad de opiniones, pero sobre todo de enfoque, ya que aún no entrando directamente, el italiano ha demostrado que puede restar muchos puntos a sus dos rivales y calentar la pelea por el campeonato. Antes de todo eso, el sábado en la clasificación del GP de Gran Bretaña, se pudo ver una imagen lamentable, la de muchos pilotos esperando en la pista la rueda de un rival. Bagnaia, al final de la sesión, explotó catalogando de "ridículo" que Márquez le siguiera en pista, una ataque directo y duro que, más que un enfado, da la impresión de formar parte de una estrategia dialéctica del italiano para empezar a marcar la distancia con el que será su nuevo compañero de equipo en Ducati. También los extraños movimientos internos de KTM, que se explican con cuentagotas y sin dar nombres, llaman la atención de los participantes en el podcast, así como la asunción del liderazgo en el desarrollo de la moto naranja por parte del jovencísimo Pedro Acosta. Otro de los debates del podcast es el nombramiento de un nuevo presidente del panel de comisarios de la FIM para 2025 en la persona de Simon Crafar, que tiene por delante la difícil misión de recuperar la confianza de los pilotos en una figura, la de Freddy Spencer, que en los últimos años, se había distanciado absolutamente de los auténticos protagonistas, los pilotos, que no creen ya en la eficacia y, sobre todo, en el criterio de sus forma de arbitrar el campeonato del mundo.

The racing wasn't as spectacular as we might have hoped but the soap opera that is Moto GP always delivers drama whether it's on or off the track. Joel Kelso did the job on the track and the rest of the cast did their bit off the track with infighting galore as riders and teams jostle to sort out who will be going where next year. There's also Friedo's horoscope, the Captain's Memo, Rossi's instructions and Borrie's poem. Just the usual assortment of analysis and profanity that makes Moto PG the greatest motorcycling podcast in the universe.

When there's no racing to review (and hence no associated bitch slapping that makes the whole circus so damn entertaining to watch) there's only one thing for it: to get serious. And if you want to get serious there is only one way these three miscreants can bring credibility to their ramblings and that's with the help of the legend that is Simon Crafar. So grab yourself a dose of proper analysis and be a better and more educated person when the pillow fighting gets back underway in Assen next week. Oh, and give us some money. Seriously.

It might be the greatest 'We told You So' of all time. Nobody could have predicted Jorge Martin moving to Aprilia and Marc Marquez joining Ducati unless they were possessed. But Tug did. And so it was that Boris and Freido fired up the Gregorian chanting and performed an exorcism, right there in the studio, to drive out the spirits that have taken over Tug's brain. It didn't work, of course, but it was good fun regardless and is just one reason that Moto PG is the greatest motorcycling podcast in the universe.

It's the end of an era with the Captain pulling the pin on Moto GP at the end of the season (insert foghorn sound effect here). Not only did the boys have the scoop on the announcement three weeks ago (We Told You So), but they have the Captain's own memo from Catalunya this past week revealing the skulduggery that ruined his big day. Of course The Captain is just one of the things that makes Moto PG the greatest motorcycling podcast in the universe. There's also Rossi's letter, Borrie's Poem, Freido's horoscope and even a little bit of chat about the actual racing. It's good stuff and your life will be better if you listen so press play now and watch the supermodels come running. Oh, and give us money.

Glorious. That's the only way to describe the French and the madness that is the paddock at Le Mans. And the racing lived up to the hype this past week despite the pre race malarkey being rubbish. The gods who walk among us put on a show for the ages in France and Boris, Tug and Freido bring their own unique 'analysis' to what unfolded at one of the world's most famous racetracks. There's also all your favourite regulars spots including Borrie's Poem, The Captain's Letter, Frieda's horoscope and Rossi's Instructions. And it's all free. The only way it could be a better deal is if we gave away a set of steak knives with every download (which we're not, so don't bother sending messages asking for a set). But if leaching off our goodwill makes you feel guilty then good. You can cleanse your conscience by giving us some money. Preferably a lot of money but we don't say no to any amount.

What's the title about, you ask? We don't understand it either but it was funny when Borrie said it, which you'll hear after you press play. But don't do that before you've worked out a way to give us money. We make it easy through our Patreon Pit Crew (https://www.patreon.com/MotoPG) or you can send it in the post. If you're having trouble, get in touch and we'll work something out. Now, back to the show. Hard to know what to say about one of the most entertaining weeks - both on and off the track - in recent memory. Was the highlight George calling out Danny for a boxing match? Or Pecco holding off a rampaging Marquez? Or is it Friedo's horoscope? Or Borrie's poem? All of the above? That's not for us to decide, friend, that's on you. So press play now and enjoy the madness.

The racing in Texas (or North Mexico as our trio like to call it) was next level. So were the grid girls. And after a weekend like that there's only one guest who can live up to the hype and that's the incomparable Mat Mladin. Straight off the toilet and hobbling on a leg held together with sticky tape and chewing gum, the legendary racer joins Boris, Tug and Freido to recap a brilliant weekend in the US where HRC went to die but the legend of BatMav was born.

What do a white tiger, a Vegas casino act and Moto GP racing have in common? Nothing, obviously. But that doesn't stop our three intrepid analysts somehow weaving them together in one of the more bizarre opening narratives to an episode of the greatest motorcycling podcast in the universe. And from there, somehow, it goes downhill. Simmo is back for episode 126 as Freido runs through some horoscopes, Borrie gets in touch with his inner 12-year-old and Tug brings us up to speed with The Captain's instructions. All you have to do to access the madness is press 'play' and then give serious consideration to sending us some money. It's the least you could do.

And so it begins. The 2024 season is officially underway and the tone has already been set wth the episode title. It's a line drawn from Borrie's first poem of 2024 and if this effort is the measure then it's going to be a spectacular year all round. There's new segments, new music and new sponsors but - importantly - there's also the same old same old from our three intrepid 'analysts'.

Even though Boris kissed him last time they met in person Joel Kelso agreed to come back on the Moto PG pod but with one caveat: it had to be on Zoom. Smart lad. And you should be glad he did agree because as always this chat with the Darwin born racer was both entertaining and enlightening. He's back in Moto 3 in 2024 and as you'll hear he's confident it will be a successful season which is great news for Australian motorcycle fans.

Remy Gardner has spent his life surrounded by people who know motorcycles and motorcycle racing so one can only imagine his shock when he found himself on the other end of a Zoom call with our three blowhards just before Christmas. But the 25-year-old never flinched and proved himself to be intelligent, thoughtful and articulate with his takes on his career and motorcycle racing more broadly. So brace yourselves, listeners, because in the same way Simon Crafar lifts the tone of the show when he makes an appearance, Remy Gardner is well worth the listen. Enjoy.

We don't yet have a nickname for him (feel free to make suggestions) but what a pleasure it was to chat with the popular and talented Sydneysider, Senna Agius. Senna heads to the Moto 2 World Championship in 2024 and somehow figured enduring an episode of Moto PG in the lead up would be good preparation. It'll be interesting to see how that pans out (hopefully really, really well!). There's also Borrie's poem and a few snippets from the Moto GP rumour mill so all in all worth pressing play.

You need to make a lot of good decisions to get to the top tier of motorcycle racing but even the best have the odd stumble. Jacob Raulstone has done everything right in his young career to date which is why he will be riding in Moto 3 in 2024 and you/we won't be. Given that, we can forgive him his poor judgement in agreeing to be part of this Summer Sessions madness and hope he can make a speedy recovery to common sense in time for the new season. In the meantime, we had a great chat and wish the young man nothing but the best and lots of success in 2024. Enjoy.

There are three categories of Motorcycle racer. There are gods (which is all of them, even the Captain) there are aliens (Marquez, Rossi, Jorge etc) and then there is our guest on Ep 118, Mat Mladin. There are no words that really capture the essence of Mladin though thousands have been used to try. This interview is everything you would hope for and more and while we say a huge thanks (again) to Mat for taking part it is YOU, the listener, who should be thanking US for making it happen.

There are few more knowledgeable, sensible or enlightened voices in Moto GP than New Zealand's Simon Crafar. And yet, for reasons unknown by mere mortals, he freely gives of his time to talk to a degenerate trio who spend the bulk of their time masquerading as podcast hosts and the rest of their time pretending they know something about motorcycles. The Lord works in mysterious ways and you, dear listeners, should be giving him praise tonight for he has bestowed upon you a great gift: Yoda talking testing and all other things Moto GP.

The racing in Valencia was brilliant but not a patch on Borrie's final poem of the year. Or the Captain's final instructions for 2023. Or even Rossi's final letter for the year. All that (plus a brief appearance from special guest Simon Crafar before recording a seperate end of year episode with him) is inside. But before you press play, a reminder that Christmas is coming up and there is no better time than now to buy Borrie's books as a stocking stuffer. Or a paper weight. Or whatever.

The Yamaha name stands for a heritage of motorcycle performance and classic styling. Visit your local dealer to find the 2023 Yamaha sport heritage bike for you or go to YamahaMotorsports.com to find out more. This week, Editor Don Williams brings you the all-new Harley-Davidson Breakout. This uber-cool and fearsomely powerful motorcycle is not just a head-turner in the looks department. Don explores what he loves about the bike and points out its possible shortcoming as well. In our second segment, Teejay Adams chats with MotoGP commentator and technical guru, Simon Crafar. Many of you know that he was a successful top-level racer and an ex-Ohlins suspension tech, but it's less likely you know that he and his wife are also passionate dog lovers and rescuers too. Simon realized that many of his colleagues in the Paddock shared their desire. So they started Riders For Dogs—a non profit organisation that raises money to support dog rescue charities and they have had a hugely positive reaction from both the MotoGP Paddock as well as all you motorcyclists around the world. Check out their social media to see auctions of awesome rider gear, or of course you can just donate to this incredibly worthy cause. The big news is that an incredibly generous German couple recently donated a spectacular Honda RC45 in Castrol colors, similar to the one that Simon raced in the ‘90s. After Simon has finished with some necessary TLC, the bike will be auctioned and every penny raised will go to Riders For Dogs. As well as his charity work for dogs, Simon also gives us some opinions and insight into some of the current MotoGP happenings.

Life is full of surprises. There's the unwelcome kind, like when the doctor says "I have your test results. I'm afraid it's gonorrhea" and then there's the more pleasant kind, like this episode of the greatest Motorcycling Podcast On Earth when Simon Crafar returns to talk all things Moto GP. Crafar is one of the most respected analysts in the business which begs the question: Why would he be part of this nonsense not once, but twice? Apparently he likes the lads. So much so he even has Borries's books. (Hint, have YOU bought Borrie's books? Go to shocknawe (http://shocknawe.com.au) now and do it if you haven't already. Then come back and listen to Simon.

When this podcast launched the simple concept (in lieu of a business plan) was to capture the demented ramblings of three self appointed motorcycle racing experts and see if anybody thought they were funny. And to the amazement of many (including themselves), people did. And there was merriment and much laughter and mirth as our three loveable clowns brought their own brand of 'analysis' to the world of Moto GP and motorcycling more generally. But nobody's laughing any more because it turns out people are taking them seriously. And not just unhinged people who don't know any better but serious, knowledgeable people. People who are legitimate analysts and who actually do know what they're talking about. People like Simon Crafar. Yes, you read that right, Simon f#ing Crafar. THE Simon Crafar, from the TV. Right here on the Moto PG podcast. So get it in your ears. It's the most sensible thing you'll ever hear on this show.

After waiting for MotoGP racing for two weeks, we get to wait some more. A late-summer storm, combined with some sub-standard track modifications, meant that there was no racing at Silverstone. There was, however, plenty of news and BSB to talk...
There was no MotoGP or World Superbike racing this weekend, so we caught up with our man on the inside, Simon Crafar, to run down through the main stories of the MotoGP season so far. In true MotoPod fashion, it's two mates talking bikes, but this...
The first race of the year for MotoGP at Qatar did not disappoint. Qualifying was insane with the entire grid very close and an amazing recording breaking lap by Zarco. The race was amazing, with the field bunched up, tons of action every lap, and lots of surprises. And yet... everyone wants to talk about Simon Crafar! Kev gets his (first) rant in early and we talk plenty about not-racing. Then we jump over to Zarco, his performance, and the rumors surrounding him. Marquez Boos come up which gets Kev heated again. Of course we talk about Dovi and how this outlier round might shape up his entire season. We bag on Lorenzo as much as possible and wonder who will replace him. And there's plenty to say about Rossi vs Mav at Yamaha. This episode finishes off with Kev a little drunk and us talking shit about anyone, but with love.

Bueno, tras un tiempo de parón por motivos laborales diversos, por fin hemos grabado el episodio 37. ¿Hay un ERE en Charlas Moteras? O es más bien cosa de un ERTE? No os lo vamos a desvelar así que tendréis que escuchar todo el programa. Hablamos del Gran Premio de Australia y la absurda importancia que han cobrado los neumáticos, del Gran Premio de Japón y sus vicisitudes y de la ultima carrera de la temporada, el Gran Premio de la Comunitat Valenciana. En la sección de "Listener Feedback", tenemos el audio-correo de Vicente, AKA Facedor o el Hayabusero del programa, con sus problemillas con el sistema de frenado de su moto. En la sección de Joyas Moteras os dejamos una mini-crónica del viaje de Pablo a WSBK Jerez 2013. Entre otras se nos cuelan algunos inventos con el cobre (como no) y menciones a motos imposibles.

Lo primero, muchas gracias a nuestro amigo y oyente Jorge de Australia. ¡Que voz! ¡Parecía que nos hablaba el mismísimo Pavarotti! En este episodio hablamos sobre esas cosas de las que se habla cuando no hay carreras: reparar la moto, comprar accesorios de moto y hablar sobre la ultima vez que se cogió la moto...
