    Men need to talk more about this stuff it can really help. The times I needed to open up I found friends and family incredibly supportive. Reach out fellas don’t suffer in silence. Big big shout out to the NHS for doing an incredible job, the real unsung heroes (I can’t thank them enough).

    Given the severity of his injuries, I'm amazed at how quickly Lee is bouncing back. More power to him!

    as an old guy that likes bikes but not a fanatic race fan, I have to say Lee is the one guy I would love to meet, I think he has helped more people than he realises, with his fantastic videos, whishing all the very best

    Great interview. Think Lee is handling his issues very well. It’s tough and scary what happened but he has some solid people around him and his attitude is 100%. It’s a long road back but best wishes Lee and family. 🇦🇺

    Great to see Lee looking so much better, but it’s a long road for him, his body will heal but it’s the mind that really takes a beating and hopefully with help he will be back to where he was before the crash. GOOD LUCK NEIL

    I am not sure Lee knows how many folk he helps with his honesty and openness but I can safely say I 100% respect him as a human, a family man and a bike racer. What a truly awesome bloke Big Respect ✊🏍💨

And a big up to Chris for not shirking about asking the questions that have to be asked….he’s really immersed himself into the TT paddock, and genuinely gets the best interviews we’ve seen in years …..👍🇮🇲😉

      @@chrispritch it’s true Chris, you have admitted you’re still nervous about how well you are seen doing the job, but hands down, you have done some of the best interviews with top TT riders we have seen for well over a decade, just one example…..Michael Dunlop, he’s never sat down for an hour interview ever….but yourself & Steve …I’ll not leave him out, 😉 got more out of MD in that 2 part vlog, than he’s given in 10 years. Not easy to form friendships with the type of person it takes to do what they do, as we know, most of the lads are very modest and shy about talking themselves up , and err away from in-depth interviews, these podcasts have turned a new era as to the stuff that goes on behind the riders and teams….long may it continue, and thankyou for being you, as a life long TT - MGP fan, that’s also helped in sidecars over the years,hand on heart, I can genuinely say, everyone that I’ve mentioned your name too, when discussing TT etc as a whole….thinks you have done and still are doing a fantastic job….enjoy you’re evening , and I will say hello next year, with Fonzi 🐶 of course 👍😉🇮🇲👌

    Saw this on TT+ the other day when rewatching races and watched it again here because it’s so refreshing hearing a grounded guy like Lee.
    Anyone who’s not seen his UA-cam channel, I’d recommend it. Proper funny, modest and open dude 👍🏻

    If there are people out there who don't just love this man (and cheer him on whenever possible) you must be horrible individuals.

    He's such good people - which is what made me become a fan of him back in 17'. Just needs to fully heal up now and get back out there

    Whatever you decide to do in the future Lee, you've made your mark on many people with your straight forwardness and honesty, and you should be proud of everything you've achieved, (so far!!) Plus although you may, (worst case for you) end up as a team manager and not the rider, there will be some very lucky rider benefiting from you experience!! Hopefully you'll be involved with the sport in some form or another for the foreseeable future and keeping us race fans entertained with the vlogs.
