By Luke Ponsford on 26/02/2005 13:44:29
Hard-drinking womaniser Ponsford feels his 'calling' and joins the Christian biking scene. But can they offer him redemption?

Why are some riders faster than others? Is it fear that stops us, a lack of technique or a state of mind? TWO examines what being fast really means and uncovers the secrets of going faster
's just warming the tyres. Of course going fast isn't just about straightline speed. Anyone who has given an R1 or Blade its legs on a motorway will have gone faster than, say, a top motocross rider doing their day job, but try going head-to-head with him

By Niall Mackenzie on 26/05/2002 14:02:00
Our Spuds lives life with KTM's crazy supermoto
, but it's quite nice if you plonk your groin in the right position on long treks. Next up, a Cadwell Park track day with knee down action after three laps! This bike is a top laugh and is the closest you will get to riding a four-stroke motocrosser

By Tim Dickson on 01/08/2005 19:17:36
Can a bona fide biking novice learn to ride in the morning and do flat-out speed runs on a litre sportsbike by teatime? Your CBT was never like this
up through all the gears. I settled the GSX-R into top with Speccy in my mirrors, fixed in position behind and to my left, and not dropping off as the Suzuki maxed out. The wind was getting up and the GSX-R was getting a bit flighty across

Mission 4: Pop track cherry
(lift your arse, move across the seat then place it back down rather than sliding across). Track sessions run in 20-minute blocks which may not sound like much, but when you consider that over the time I was there I racked up around 320 miles on track
