Join Gareth Keys and Korie McGreevy for an unfiltered deep dive with multiple British 125cc champion, international road race winner, and NW200 legend Christian Elkin.
In this must-watch episode, Christian opens up about his incredible journey: starting on a £50 Honda Vision 50 scooter raking canal fields at 14, polishing bikes at 13 for a Saturday job, jumping straight into tarmac racing with zero prior experience, becoming a double British 125cc champion, and witnessing Casey Stoner's jaw-dropping talent up close ("He backed it in sideways... I thought I'd be over the bars!").
The highlight? Christian relives the surreal, emotion-charged 2008 North West 200 250cc race — just 48 hours after Robert Dunlop's tragic qualifying crash at Mather's Cross. He battles wheel-to-wheel with 19-year-old Michael Dunlop and John McGuinness in one of the most iconic NW200 moments ever.
