Hey, Alberto, I hope this comment reaches you and doesn’t get lost. Wanted to say a huge thank you for the motorcycle riding tip videos, they had a huge impact on my life. Back in 2018, I was diagnosed with blood cancer, went through chemo and a bone marrow transplant. But I decided not to give up on motorcycling and in 2020 I took part in a local (I live in Lithuania) championship racing in street-superbike class (rode a cbr1000rr then). I have followed your tip videos as a guidebook and it greatly helped me to become the champion back then. Furthermore, in 2021 I upgraded to a s1000rr and took part in two championships at the same time and became a champ in the intermediate class in one and finised 4th (among over 20 riders in both of those) in the other one. I am reaching the superbike levels for my region, with a huge thanks to you. The cherry on the cake is that I will be coming to Italy in start of May and will ride my bike in Misano to improve further. If there’s any chance to meet you and shake hands - it would be an honor for me. You said you race to win - well the content that you make inspires others and everytime I (or anyone else who follows your advice) wins - you are a part of that victory too, remember that. Thanks for the great content.
Really sad that i cant see any Motorbike racing from you. But your car racing calender is not bad too! Looking forward to see some nice action with you! All the best!
Everything happens for a reason Naskaa. We will love and support you whether you'll Race on car or bike💕We can understand how difficult it is to leave your passion(bikes) but you can master on Cars too, I'm confident🔥
I’m going to miss your tips and tricks on motorcycle racing 😭. Your videos got me to advanced / expert and I’m still looking back at your videos to get that information to turn into second hand nature. Good luck with your future!
So sad to hear that man, a Man’s gotta to do what a Man’s gotta to do. I think we’ve learned a lot from your videos. Thanks for the ride man and good luck with the Cars 🤙
As someone who has been in a crash recently, I completely understand your choices and support your decision. I've been speculating my life choices the same as you and made some decisions on moving forward. Whatever you do, I wish you all the best.
As a fellow racer who started late (24), it's sad to see you quit man! I hope the message you left about age does not discourage people, because I am trying to reach a world championship despite starting so late, and I want to prove that idea wrong. Hopefully I can get there, as this year I'm in the European Championship (FIM CEV), so maybe I can continue to encourage others to chase the dream. I subscribed for the bike content, but I'll stick around. Best of luck to you!
So what you’re saying is…cars are easier 😁😁😁😁 All jokes aside, really sad to see you walk away from motorbike racing. You and your channel are an INSPIRATION for me as I started my own channel. Grazie Mille Naska and all the best luck on your car racing! 🙏🙏🙏
@@johncrow5552 why so negativee, he said that formula 1 doesn’t count sooo he could ride in a gt3 cup or smth, you dont know that. Your probably a lazy keyboard warrior with a bag of chips being lazy and doing nothing complaining to a guy who dreams big. Anyway kiddow have fun
I've been through three 'sport-changing' injuries, they suck. We are with you wherever you go, I love watching you compete as it brings back good memories. You will get to the top! Keep going, you made the right decision, no second thoughts! 100% focus now!
Shame to see you leave riding, for the time you spent riding you went a long away and your riding tips videos are some of the best out there! Never going to stop watching your racing content and wishing you every success in your future career
Indeed, sad but expected news. Nevertheless, do whatever makes you happy Alberto, you fully deserve it and keep pushing hard! Fingers crossed and all the best to you!
Sorry for your loss bro 😭😭😭 What a true shame, I feel for athletes who are forced out of sport by their injuries. Thanks for all the bike content! 👍 Ps. I'm Australian and did a bucket list trip to the misano Motogp in 2019 before all the covid craziness 👌👌
Found your channel because of motorcycle racing. I stayed because i love your personality and I respect the passion you have for motorsport. For me right now you could race lawnmowers, I would still watch your content :). Best of luck this year, I cant wait for all the exciting and diverse racing :D
I kept the sub hoping for a come back at one point so that's bad news, you have the only channel which allowed viewers to feel what it's like going through a race week end. Plus your insights were getting more and more interesting. Hope you the best.
Not gonna lie, I was saddened when I heard you weren't racing motorcycles anymore, but I've been watching ur channel for awhile and I understood the how and why, really glad ur back racing tho and look forward to seeing you mix it up on 4 wheels, cheers Mr Naska!!!
The one thing i liked the most about your channel, is the improvement through learning, so not being expedience is not bad, you have a room to grow, you can talk to other riders to improve, and we as viewers can learn with you too :D but we all understand, injury is hard, I myself have a kinda bad leg, really though to be really competitive in sports
Thank you for the tips bro. I started riding less than 1 year ago , and I'm already competing . My time is crazy better already , I'm at 7° position in 43 racers . Your videos helped a lot ! God bless you
Don’t give up man, go for the ankle arthrodesis if the pain is limiting you. One year ago I had a bad accident with astragalus fracture, yes a pretty rare injury, that I still recovering nowadays, but improved a lot since I decided to do the ankle fusion surgery a few months ago. Look at Jules Cluzel in World SuperBike, he rides with left ankle fused with an adaptation to shift on right side. I wish the best for your career, good luck🤝
Good Luck Naska, but please continue doing videos of superbike secrets ... It was the reason i subscrive your channel and its amazing to know the secrets of riding and I know you like that development, you learned a lot and it was amazing that you were explaining the doubts that we have too.... Get well Soon
I still remember the first time I’m preparing for my first trackday and searching for motorcycle track tips on youtube hence I came across 3 oy your 25 tips video which helped me a lot and got great laptimes although it’s my first time. Almost a year later I managed to shave off a second which is not easy by scavenging videos on youtube on how to be a better rider. Look at me now, I’m still a slow rider that constantly trying to shave off as many seconds as I can like I’ve been during the beginning. Thank you for being a part of my life with motorcycles💯
Congratulations man ! What a season to come ! Glad you keep legend car because those cars seems to be incredible. I understand your sadness about motorbike, 2 years ago i broke my talus, it's a daily pain keeping you from working correctly and obviously run and do other sports (according to the surgeon it's for life) ... I hope you will recover ✌️
I'm 9 months on from a double fibia compound fracture + ACL reconstruction due to a start line incident. Only just starting to walk with 1 crutch and a long road ahead for recovery. So my motorcycle racing is over. Quite sad but I'm still very happy about the years that I did have racing and memories. I understand exactly where you are. Maybe I'll also look to car racing in future - let's see how the recovery goes first. Good luck to you for the future!
Very sad to hear Alberto, your videos made me a better rider when I first started on track explaining concepts in a way no one else on UA-cam has been able to do for me. Wish you the best of luck, and I hope your ankle gets better. I will still be a fan of yours in cars though. Best of luck!
Sucks to hear man, but I get it, I definitely get it. You're one of the reasons I got into racing motorcycles. You've inspired a lot of people in the motorcycle community. Thanks for all the great videos. Wishing you all the best in your future Legends season!
You are a hero now, since you injured yourself to teach us about motorcycle skills and racing. So be happy. You’re good man. You’re a hero and I respect you very much and am also sorry things didn’t go as far as you maybe wanted. Thanks for your teaching videos!
id like to mention that the helpful tips of videos you have since posted helped alot of us trackday riders who started late just like you do. So even if you are not racing motorcycles anymore, I will always suggest your motorcycle tutorials to my friends so they can ride faster and safer. Thank you.
I had a similar issue in my lower back and had to quit racing 25 years ago from a big crash. Picked up car racing and after 25 years got back on the bike to help a friend's son learn to race. Pain wasn't too bad and I managed it, but after a couple years of helping amateur riders move to expert, I can't even ride for 2 laps without the intense pain coming back. So enjoy car racing and I look forward to new informative video's.
Really sad to hear this. You had the best content of getting started with riding seriously. Still the right decision and I hope you get far with car racing!
You're not alone. I broke my ankle on track on a motorbike also. Its been over a year and I cant run or walk normally as well. Good luck in the championships, cant wait to watch
I wish you the best for your car racing career! Its sad to see my favorite youtuber walk away from my passion, but I understand your decision and I'm hyped for the new videos! Your channel is the reason that got me into motorcycle racing and this year I'm fighting in my first championship. Thank you for everything, I wish you the best for the future!
sad to hear you go away from motorbikes but i do understand it. when i found your channel you had just had your accident and i wanted to see you return to racing motorbikes but as time went on i started loving the car racing videos, and now i'm really excited for this season. also you coming to belgium on a track where i've ridden motorbikes on trackday is going to be really cool. i'm going to do my best to meet you in zolder in october. keep living, keep racing ;-)
Sad news. So sorry, but surely the wise choice. I enjoyed your motorcycle racing videos and learned a lot from you. Best wishes for your racing future.
It's a very sad video Naska. We'd like you to keep on doing motorcycle racing videos, but we can't accept you live with pain. Thanks for all videos you made in the past.
Congrats Naska!! Realy happy for you, not gonna lie it's sad seeing that your motorcycle racing carrer won't go on for now because there's no one that i know of who makes such motorcycle racing videos like you've made (hoppefully in the future you will be more confortable riding and go back to racing motorcycles, who knows!?) but i'm excited to see the upcoming videos of "Racing is Life". Much love from Portugal :)
I always waited for your bike videos and especially your explanations and tips. However this is most excellent news, it’s good to know that your injury didn’t destroy your career. I look forward to following what will no doubt be a very successful career and brand. All the best on 4 wheels. ✌️
Wow congrats man, i can't wait to watch all your next videos, those are awesome cars. About the bikes, you competed in a really high level, that experience and memories are for all your life, most of us never even ride a bike in a track. I'm sure this decision is the best for your racing career.
u were the best teacher i had for riding and track tips. thank you for all the time and effort u put to make your experiences available for us.I'm here watching you getting to the highest levels on 4wheels❤🔥
Hey Alberto - you're such a great guy, you're taking the right decisions. I have a lot of respect for the way you accept reality and make the best out of it.
So sad to hear that. Your previous videos are extremely informative and helpful, which help me a lot with riding motorbike. But as you said, you have to focus on one sport rather than two. You are right. I am also excited to hear that you will race on a GT4 car. Really cool. I wish you all the best and have good results in the coming races.
Ooh it's really sad to not see you on the Yamaha anymore! Your tips and tricks really helped me on track. But it's always a good plan to feel what the body says. Good luck in car racing!
Damn... one of the most inspiring motorcycle channels / UA-camrs i watch. But everything u have said makes sense. Godspeed in your health and much success in cars.
I’m super upset to hear that man you were such an inspiration to me and my motorcycle career that I to just started but I understand exactly why you don’t wana race bikes anymore but I can’t wait to watch you’re future championships
@albertonaska you´ve done a bunch of great videos for motorbikes with motorbikes that will continue to help future riders of all ages! Health is important and i wish you all the best!
Alberto, you certainly made the best decision. I think you will have more fun than you know what to do with. Because in the end it's all about the speed and the chance to win. Great choices my friend and all the best!
I started watching you for motorbikes but later on, i also found that bikes are fun but dangerous. I love the way you edit your videos and narration so literally, i am scheduling my calender for the 2022 season for Naska............ 😁😁😁😁..... I am excited.
A shame not to see you on the bike any more as I thought you were progressing really quickly. Also your insight on how to be fast was really good - really useful for me! Good luck with car racing.
Hey Alberto, I recently found your channel, and someone who is new to bikes at the age of 48, I learnt ALOT from just watching and listening to you. Your accident on your bike was bad, and clearly it was a tough choice, but you have your whole life ahead of you to do with as you choose (that's the plus side). Hope you continue to do vids of bikes, maybe some of the skills you have learnt and how they translate to safer road riding, (maybe some advance riding tips). Either way, will continue to follow your channel and I hope to learn more from the knowledge and passion you have. Grazie from the UK sir
Congratulations on the upcoming year, very excited to watch you continue the journey. Started watching for your bike videos years ago and stuck around.
Just ride for fun, do track days... it's more social and a lot of fun... I have a similar story... I wanted to start racing and had crashes... didn't get hurt too badly, but I didn't start until I was over 40. I hear you man, best of luck in the cars.. remember your R1 loves you :)
I totally understand u buddy. Last July I had low side on my r6... I demaged my left foot big toe joint, now I can't bend joint like before and it's pain every day, however I can ride, but need to build up my confidence again... Not easy when pain constantly reminding u about itself.
I feel for you and respect your decision. I know you love racing motorcycles. I hope sometime you will commentate on moto racing because you did a very good job of explaining things on the podcast that i heard you on. Best wishes!
Congrats Naska ! this will be fun to follow. I am a race fan and watch everything that i have acces to from Bikes, WRC, Indy, Nascar, formula one. I myselfe is to old to get even near a real race car, but do race on simulators on my PC. But anyway, i look forward to follow you and your races. Good luck to you and may you have good fortune on the track.
Whatever you race, it's about the message. The fact you can race at all given your background with no money is incredible to me. Whatever you race, you will always be an inspiration to me because you made me believe that I can race too
I started with your "how to" motorbike videos and they helped me so much! After that I loved your racing with Predators so I ended up buying one :D. Most in Czech Republic is sort of "my home racetrack" I will definitely come see you racing live with Nascar! Congrats on the developments in your carreer!
Sorry to hear the bad news but all the best for all the racing you will be doing. And you will always be welcome in the paddock to watch your friends racing bikes no doubt!
Tough decision to make dude, i used to love seeing you racing on the bikes, but everything comes for some reason, so i wish you the best for these season! Luckily the first race of the euroNASKAr is in my home city, so maybe i'll be able to go watch it to the track!
I was expecting this but it was still sad to hear. Anyway good luck to your car racing and keep up the good content. Hope you will race at least one more motorbike race someday, maybe even minibikes lol.
Hi Alberto, I hope this comment reaches you. On New Years Eve in 2000 my ankle got crushed between two boats while celebrating on Sydney Harbour. It partially healed, but was very painful to the point where several years later it was seized up and I could not walk without a limp. I was told by several doctors that it would only get worse over time, and try not to overuse that foot. But, I found an amazing masseuse and after several weeks and many many hours of painful massage the "white blood" (lymph) and blood circulation was restored. My ankle has since returned 100% to normal and I started riding bikes on track a couple of years ago with no problem. If your ankle is still a problem I'd recommend finding a strong masseuse, at whatever the price.
im a fan of you since pandemic time. i enjoyed watching your superbike videos. i learned a lot from ur videos. even i know im still watching ur tips on how to ride a superbikes how to ride like a pro. thanks for the knowledge naska. i bought a yamaha r1 because i wanna be like you. you love the r1's and me too it become my dreamBike. thanks for evrything. hope you could see this comment. thanks. im youre no. 1 fan from the philippines.
Hey Alberto, do what you wan't, the people looking the videos also because of your character not only the content. ;) I wish the best in your career on 4 wheels and i will watch it. :)
Good luck man. i do motorcycle bc its so much more affordable and "1 man team" possibilites but i understand 100% your reason. ill still be watching forza
I fu++ love the design of your cars especially the Nascar design combine with the suit and helmet design.. perfection !!! good luck from Germany Berlin !
I'm sorry that you have made the decision to stop racing motorcycles. I don't know what I'll do when I have to stop racing motorcycles. I love it. But thank you very much for your insights and well produced videos about motorcycle racing. Lots of great information there. Good luck in your new adventure with the cars.
Thanks for the vedios on motorcycle tips. That were valuable experience which inspired me a lot. Although it is a still little bit sad to hear the news of leaving, it's glad to see your on track again with a different vehicle. Hope that u will have a success on 4 wheel racings and careers in the comig years :)
Really sorry to hear that you are having to leave the bikes behind you. It was motorbikes that brought me to your channel, however have to say that this is 100% the correct decision. Really looking forward to watching all the racing from 2022 this sounds a really exciting year and maybe will get to se you live in the UK when you come to Brands Hatch
Wow that's bad news indeed Alberto! You were very talented in racing motorbikes and I've learned and used some of your tips riding on the track. But I am still happy you are still involved in racing even if it's the 4 wheel variety. Better to be able to literally walk away as opposed to crawling. I look forward to your new future as a car racer and have no doubt you will be successful. Maybe you can post more videos about better riding techniques on the track!
Didnt know Euorpe had Nascar.... hope its more than left turns, Congrats on all your success and continued motivation. Even though you're not racing bikes anymore(which is understandable) you provided great information and content for a lot of riders. Stay motivated, good luck and god bless.

Realy happy for you, not gonna lie it's sad seeing that your motorcycle racing carrer won't go on for now because there's no one that i know of who makes such motorcycle racing videos like you've made (hoppefully in the future you will be more confortable riding and go back to racing motorcycles, who knows!?) but i'm excited to see the upcoming videos of "Racing is Life". Much love from Portugal :)
Man that really blows. I can't imagine not being able to ride. It's good that you were able to replace it with something else you love. Godspeed.
I always waited for your bike videos and especially your explanations and tips. However this is most excellent news, it’s good to know that your injury didn’t destroy your career. I look forward to following what will no doubt be a very successful career and brand. All the best on 4 wheels. ✌️
Wow congrats man, i can't wait to watch all your next videos, those are awesome cars.
About the bikes, you competed in a really high level, that experience and memories are for all your life, most of us never even ride a bike in a track.
I'm sure this decision is the best for your racing career.
u were the best teacher i had for riding and track tips. thank you for all the time and effort u put to make your experiences available for us.I'm here watching you getting to the highest levels on 4wheels❤🔥
Hey Alberto - you're such a great guy, you're taking the right decisions. I have a lot of respect for the way you accept reality and make the best out of it.
So sad to hear that. Your previous videos are extremely informative and helpful, which help me a lot with riding motorbike. But as you said, you have to focus on one sport rather than two. You are right. I am also excited to hear that you will race on a GT4 car. Really cool. I wish you all the best and have good results in the coming races.
I honestly can't wait. I also live your video style. Love ya
Ooh it's really sad to not see you on the Yamaha anymore! Your tips and tricks really helped me on track. But it's always a good plan to feel what the body says. Good luck in car racing!
I am very sorry for your withdrawal from motorcycles. I've learned a lot with your motorcycle videos. I also like cars. Good luck.
Damn... one of the most inspiring motorcycle channels / UA-camrs i watch. But everything u have said makes sense. Godspeed in your health and much success in cars.
I’m super upset to hear that man you were such an inspiration to me and my motorcycle career that I to just started but I understand exactly why you don’t wana race bikes anymore but I can’t wait to watch you’re future championships
@albertonaska you´ve done a bunch of great videos for motorbikes with motorbikes that will continue to help future riders of all ages! Health is important and i wish you all the best!
Alberto, you certainly made the best decision. I think you will have more fun than you know what to do with. Because in the end it's all about the speed and the chance to win. Great choices my friend and all the best!
I started watching you for motorbikes but later on, i also found that bikes are fun but dangerous. I love the way you edit your videos and narration so literally, i am scheduling my calender for the 2022 season for Naska............ 😁😁😁😁..... I am excited.
A shame not to see you on the bike any more as I thought you were progressing really quickly. Also your insight on how to be fast was really good - really useful for me! Good luck with car racing.
Hey Alberto, I recently found your channel, and someone who is new to bikes at the age of 48, I learnt ALOT from just watching and listening to you. Your accident on your bike was bad, and clearly it was a tough choice, but you have your whole life ahead of you to do with as you choose (that's the plus side). Hope you continue to do vids of bikes, maybe some of the skills you have learnt and how they translate to safer road riding, (maybe some advance riding tips). Either way, will continue to follow your channel and I hope to learn more from the knowledge and passion you have. Grazie from the UK sir
Good thing I love cars AND bikes, oh and your channel of course. Best of luck this year! :)
Congratulations on the upcoming year, very excited to watch you continue the journey. Started watching for your bike videos years ago and stuck around.
😥 think you had one of the best channels for motorcycle track focused content. Good luck with the cars though.
Just ride for fun, do track days... it's more social and a lot of fun... I have a similar story... I wanted to start racing and had crashes... didn't get hurt too badly, but I didn't start until I was over 40. I hear you man, best of luck in the cars.. remember your R1 loves you :)
I totally understand u buddy. Last July I had low side on my r6... I demaged my left foot big toe joint, now I can't bend joint like before and it's pain every day, however I can ride, but need to build up my confidence again... Not easy when pain constantly reminding u about itself.
I feel for you and respect your decision. I know you love racing motorcycles. I hope sometime you will commentate on moto racing because you did a very good job of explaining things on the podcast that i heard you on. Best wishes!
Good luck to you with racing cars.your riding tips were always very helpful.
Congrats Naska ! this will be fun to follow. I am a race fan and watch everything that i have acces to from Bikes, WRC, Indy, Nascar, formula one. I myselfe is to old to get even near a real race car, but do race on simulators on my PC. But anyway, i look forward to follow you and your races. Good luck to you and may you have good fortune on the track.
Whatever you race, it's about the message. The fact you can race at all given your background with no money is incredible to me. Whatever you race, you will always be an inspiration to me because you made me believe that I can race too
So much maturity in this video Alberto, loved watching it! Thank you
I just want to say thank you when I started tracking my bike you gave out so much info to get faster in your videos which helped me z thank you
I started with your "how to" motorbike videos and they helped me so much! After that I loved your racing with Predators so I ended up buying one :D. Most in Czech Republic is sort of "my home racetrack" I will definitely come see you racing live with Nascar! Congrats on the developments in your carreer!
Sorry to hear the bad news but all the best for all the racing you will be doing. And you will always be welcome in the paddock to watch your friends racing bikes no doubt!
Tough decision to make dude, i used to love seeing you racing on the bikes, but everything comes for some reason, so i wish you the best for these season!
Luckily the first race of the euroNASKAr is in my home city, so maybe i'll be able to go watch it to the track!
I was expecting this but it was still sad to hear. Anyway good luck to your car racing and keep up the good content. Hope you will race at least one more motorbike race someday, maybe even minibikes lol.
I followed you for bikes but I'm also big into cars and am so glad to see you continue Naska!!! Vamos!!!
Hi Alberto, I hope this comment reaches you.
On New Years Eve in 2000 my ankle got crushed between two boats while celebrating on Sydney Harbour. It partially healed, but was very painful to the point where several years later it was seized up and I could not walk without a limp. I was told by several doctors that it would only get worse over time, and try not to overuse that foot. But, I found an amazing masseuse and after several weeks and many many hours of painful massage the "white blood" (lymph) and blood circulation was restored. My ankle has since returned 100% to normal and I started riding bikes on track a couple of years ago with no problem. If your ankle is still a problem I'd recommend finding a strong masseuse, at whatever the price.
im a fan of you since pandemic time. i enjoyed watching your superbike videos. i learned a lot from ur videos. even i know im still watching ur tips on how to ride a superbikes how to ride like a pro. thanks for the knowledge naska. i bought a yamaha r1 because i wanna be like you. you love the r1's and me too it become my dreamBike. thanks for evrything. hope you could see this comment. thanks. im youre no. 1 fan from the philippines.
Hey Alberto, do what you wan't, the people looking the videos also because of your character not only the content. ;)
I wish the best in your career on 4 wheels and i will watch it. :)
Good luck man. i do motorcycle bc its so much more affordable and "1 man team" possibilites but i understand 100% your reason. ill still be watching forza
I fu++ love the design of your cars especially the Nascar design combine with the suit and helmet design.. perfection !!! good luck from Germany Berlin !
I see. Thank for yours 25 tips about riding on motorcycle. I have used it till now.
Same, great edu
Hey, very unfortunate, but totally understandable. Good luck for the future and all the best
I'm sorry that you have made the decision to stop racing motorcycles. I don't know what I'll do when I have to stop racing motorcycles. I love it. But thank you very much for your insights and well produced videos about motorcycle racing. Lots of great information there. Good luck in your new adventure with the cars.
I've been watching for YEARS and I'm so happy that you're going to be part of the European NASCAR championships. You're going to smash it 👊🏿
Thanks for the vedios on motorcycle tips. That were valuable experience which inspired me a lot. Although it is a still little bit sad to hear the news of leaving, it's glad to see your on track again with a different vehicle. Hope that u will have a success on 4 wheel racings and careers in the comig years :)
Really sorry to hear that you are having to leave the bikes behind you. It was motorbikes that brought me to your channel, however have to say that this is 100% the correct decision. Really looking forward to watching all the racing from 2022 this sounds a really exciting year and maybe will get to se you live in the UK when you come to Brands Hatch
So cool to see where your career is going, good luck!
Naska this was better news than any motorbike news... good luck 🔨👍😀🏁
Great news, can’t wait for the season to begin, Aussie fan.
Damn man....one door closes and another opens. I enjoy the videos. Take care.
Wow that's bad news indeed Alberto! You were very talented in racing motorbikes and I've learned and used some of your tips riding on the track. But I am still happy you are still involved in racing even if it's the 4 wheel variety. Better to be able to literally walk away as opposed to crawling. I look forward to your new future as a car racer and have no doubt you will be successful. Maybe you can post more videos about better riding techniques on the track!
Didnt know Euorpe had Nascar.... hope its more than left turns, Congrats on all your success and continued motivation. Even though you're not racing bikes anymore(which is understandable) you provided great information and content for a lot of riders. Stay motivated, good luck and god bless.
Oh well. Thank you for your amazing videos on motorbikes until now! They will be valuable forever! Good luck with the car racing!!
I'm so sad to hear. You are an inspiration
