Chasin' The Racin'

This week on Chasin' the Racin', Josh and Joe had the pleasure of chatting to New Zealander, Mitch Rees. He tells all from his early years in NZ, a roundup of his time in the UK and how racing the Isle of Man TT came to be. It was a special one for us as one a few years ago, Mitch's brother Damo was sat right in this seat. They reflected on losing Damo, Mitch's perspective and the legacy Damo's left and what that looks like through Mitch's racing now.

This week, our co-hosts come together for the first time in 2026 to catch up in true CTR fashion. Rumour mill gossip, what the lads have been up to & their plans for this year and previewing BSB, WSBK, MotoGP and Road Racing to truly try & fill the motorcycle racing void that is currently taking over off season life - there is a lot to digest! We also wanted to use this episode, with the boys back together, to share the news that Dom won't be returning to the pod in 2026. As a team, we only received confirmation after our last recording, following some time waiting to hear back from him, and felt it was important to keep you all in the loop. It was clearly a difficult decision for Dom, but we respect his reasons and wish him nothing but the best for the season ahead. It's been an incredible journey with CTR so far, and the rest of the lads, along with the Rouse family, remain focused on carrying forward Chrissy's legacy in the only way we know how. The only constant in life is change and we hope this leads the pod in a fresh direction with these lads flying the flag whilst staying true to CTR's core.

This week on Chasin' the Racin' we've decided to do things a little different. Due to November being Men's Mental Health month, we thought it was a great time to have a really important conversation and spread the message from the amazing Mental Health Motorbike charity team. Co-founder, Paul Oxborough and trustee Mary Lomas join us in the studio this week to not only reach out to any of our listeners struggling at the moment, but also spread awareness of the work they do and the subsidised mental health first aid training they offer. Hopefully you can take something from this.
