Just unboxed the new Phantom ANC (active noise canceling) helmet. I was not expecting much, if I’m honest, BUT colour me very surprised! So far it’s been very very impressive. By far the best sounding helmet setup I’ve ever tried and noise cancelling is pretty game changing for a helmet. The fit and finish is also excellent, and it fits a oval head shape (think SHOEI RF1400) very nicely!

My camera fell off my helmet mount heading out of the pits on my first track day of the season at The Ridge. A group of young riders from Beaverton Motorsports in Oregon found it, saw it was still recording, and left me a message while they held it for me until I got back.

35 years and 80-plus bikes in, and it is still the people that make this sport. Track days, race paddocks, parking lots, it does not matter. Riders look out for each other.

Thank you to the crew. You are exactly what the track family should be. 🙏

Rossi wins nine titles. Asked the secret. Says fun.

People treat that like a humble dodge. It isn’t. It’s the most useful piece of riding advice ever given.

Tense riders are slow riders. White-knuckled hands grip too hard. Locked shoulders block your inputs. A clenched jaw means your eyes aren’t moving. The body that has fun is loose, smooth, and fast. The body that’s grinding is none of those things.

I’ve watched this play out in my own riding for decades. The fastest laps I’ve put down were always the ones I wasn’t trying to.

Have you ever ridden better when you cared less about being fast?

35 years in. 80 bikes. I still get a quiet wave of nerves every time I throw a leg over something that wants to bite.
That’s not fear. That’s respect. The day I stop feeling it is the day I’m not paying attention anymore — and that’s the dangerous version of confident.
Track riders know this. The good ones never get cocky on the warmup lap. The fast ones never trust grip they haven’t tested. Confidence is fine. Complacency kills.
When was the last time a bike reminded you who’s boss?
