In this conversation, Nick Round shares his journey as a motorcycle racer, discussing his recent successes, future aspirations for the Manx Grand Prix in 2027, and the challenges of balancing his career as a secondary maths teacher with his passion for racing.

He reflects on the importance of sponsorship, the supportive racing community, and the analytical mindset that helps him improve his performance on the track.

Nick also talks about his upbringing in a bike loving household, his familiarity with the Isle of Man course, and his dedication to training and preparation for the upcoming racing season so he can be absolutely ready for MGP.

We also find out why his race team is called Randy Racing... you can find it on Facebook here, Instagram here and his YouTube Channel is here. 

And in this episode, we also hear from Manx Grand Prix rider Grant Thomson, offering some insight after his amazing debut. You can find Grant's racing page here and before his first time at the MGP, I recorded another podcast with him (love a podcast) and you can find that on the Journey to a Dream page.

Startline is on Facebook and Instagram too, so please give the pages a follow and keep up to date with the latest episodes.
