Mike Williamson | The Inside Line, Presented by Thor Apr 24, 2019

Show notes

Mike Williamson's recent departure as Eli Tomac's crew chief at Monster Energy Kawasaki had lots of tongues wagging in the forum. We know people were looking for answers, and we covered an assortment of topics with him, including some distant and recent history. We also chatted about some of the riders he's worked with in the past, including Ryan Villopoto and James Stewart. He's also back to racing again, but this time with his son, Jake.

Trey Canard had plenty of highs during his race career with wins, as well as Supercross and outdoor titles. But he also scored more than his share of pain and injuries, and announced his retirement during the latter half of the 2017 outdoor season. While we're not likely to see him racing in the future, we were happy to see that he's found a new way to enjoy riding. We'd been chasing him for a podcast for a while, and recently caught up with him after a test day with the Honda team, where he was working on outdoor settings for Ken Roczen. He's got a lot to say, so let's dive in here.

John Gallagher, Supercross Race Director | The Inside Line, Presented by Thor Apr 10, 2019

John Gallagher may have the toughest gig in the sport. As the race director for the Monster Energy Supercross series, he's part of the crew that has to make decisions and has to dispense penalties when things get out of line. Being a ref in any sport is tough. But judging from some of the comments that we've seen in the forum lately, people misunderstand not only what he does, but some of the hows and why that goes into a lot of the decision-making process. That's why we asked John to sit down for a chat.

Jim Holley | The Inside Line, Presented by Thor Mar 14, 2019

We're back with another old-schooler, and I have to admit, I've got a fondness for storytellers, and riders who can tell tales from back in the day. Jim Holley definitely falls into that category, and he's definitely not afraid to let it fly. Nearly every weekend during the Supercross season, you can catch him on Raceday Live, getting the scoop from the current day heroes. So settle back, and listen in.

Forrest Butler | The Inside Line, Presented by Thor Feb 15, 2019

Forrest has been the driving force behind Butler Brothers racing since the days that he and his brothers were the team. Now known as the Rocky Mountain ATV-MC/KTM/WPS team, it's a program that he's been steadily building, through good times (like partnering with KTM, and picking up their first 450 class wins), and bad (which includes some shady sponsor deals). He covers a ton of different topics here, so settle in for some good tales. He even covers a few stories that he said he's never told.

This week's guest is Jeremy Albrecht, AKA J-Bone. These days he keeps things moving as the team manager for the JGRMX/Yoshimura/Suzuki Factory Racing team. But he's been around forever, first as a rider and racer, and later taking on wrenching duties for the Kawasaki factory team for the likes of Jeff Emig and James Stewart. He's got some interesting stories, plus has great insights into the modern day racing scene.

A Peek Behind The Curtain At Feld Motorsports | The Inside Line, Presented by Thor Dec 28, 2018

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

This time around we’re checking in with a trio of folks at Feld Motorsports, who run on the Supercross series. A lot of fans don’t know the faces behind the scenes, so this serves not only as a bit of an introduction, but also as a way to answer some questions on the inner workings of the series. The bulk of our time was spent with Mike Muye, who’s sort of the field general, but we also check in with Doug Cabrera who works on the TV side, and Jay Laws, who runs the art department on there, and has been part of the crew for over 20 years.

This is part two of our conversation with Broc Glover. If you missed part one, you might want to go back and listen to that first, and then dive in here. Either way, we’ve got a lot of ground to cover. Sit back and enjoy. This one moves forward on his career timeline, including his time at Dunlop, and a whole host of other topics.

Broc Glover, Part 1 | The Inside Line, Presented by Thor Dec 07, 2018

Show notes

This week's guest is Broc Glover. We cover a ton of ground in this one, from his early days and championships to a crack at the GPs, but that’s only the half of it. This one is a two-parter, and we’ll post up the second half of the conversation in a few days.

Tony Alessi | The Inside Line, Presented by Thor Nov 12, 2018

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

Tony Alessi has always been a polarizing figure in the sport...especially while going racing with his sons, Mike and Jeff. These days, however, he sees things in a completely different way as team manager for Smartop MotoConcepts Racing. It's more about business, and there's less family emotion to make things crazy. He's also promoting Minicross events, and helping bring along a next generation. Listen in to hear all that, plus what he feels is the biggest mistake he made.
