00:00 So Toby, how are you finding the Glenmore Express?
00:03 Hey, it's unreal. It's stoked to be down here and can't thank Glenmore, Pony Express guys enough
00:09 and the whole team and crew here to bring us down and enjoy this experience.
00:13 So yeah, now that I've been here it's definitely missing out on the riding
00:18 side of things so I have to plan to come back next year and be on some two wheels
00:22 here and do some racing. So it's been good, we're having some fun.
00:26 So you're definitely considering coming back to race?
00:28 Yeah for sure, the club's been unreal, everyone here is super friendly and
00:32 yeah, really taking good care of myself and everybody else and
00:36 yeah, the track is unreal as you can see behind me. The juniors are out there
00:40 running around now doing their two-hour moto and
00:43 yeah, cool to see the ground and what's here and
00:46 definitely on the list now to come back and do.
00:50 What do you think of some of the talent riding around here today?
00:53 Yeah, it's unreal. It's good to see the juniors out riding and
00:56 yeah, definitely some of the boys in the front, they're moving along pretty good
01:00 and then Andy that was here yesterday basically wiped the field of everybody
01:04 so super talented and a lot of kids
01:07 coming through that are looking strong so
01:09 yeah, I think Australia is in good hands with the juniors coming through and
01:14 yeah, guys are probably starting to look to take on the world so it's
01:18 good to see. And is Andy your one to beat today?
01:21 Yeah, I think Andy's the one to beat today so yeah,
01:24 in one way I'm kind of glad I'm not riding at the moment. We've
01:28 not been doing too much today in the last few months and I think he would have
01:32 handed it to me so it's good to see and like I say,
01:36 he won the road log yesterday, won the hill climb and
01:39 yeah, he basically took out every class yesterday so he's doing really well and
01:43 yeah, he's got to be one that's got to be at the front in the future.
01:47 And what do you think of the the Warrnambool grass in your area? Have you
01:50 been out this way before? I've been out this way before but
01:54 basically only kind of passed through but yeah, the Warrnambool area is nice,
01:57 the green ground here, I love the cold weather so it suits me really well so
02:02 yeah, it's like I say, I'm definitely bummed a little bit that I'm
02:06 not out on the track and riding so definitely happy conditions and
02:11 last year they had a little bit of unfortunate rain and it was a bit of a
02:14 tough one for them but great to see blue skies, the sun's out,
02:17 everyone's out and enjoying a day of racing.
02:20 And what's coming up for you? Any events coming up or what's next for you?
02:24 Yeah, so next up for me is, we've got a Baja 500 in a Trojan truck in New Mexico so I'll leave that middle of next month and then
02:33 yeah, at this point we've just basically got some four-wheel stuff we're doing,
02:37 we're in the mix of trying to work out a two-wheel idea and plan but
02:42 yeah, hitting a few roadblocks with some contracts so
02:46 a little difficult at this stage but we're working on it, let's see what we can
02:49 come up with and yeah, I love seeing two wheels and I love
02:53 being on two wheels and yeah, I want to be back out on two wheels so
02:57 we'll work on it and see how we go. Sounds good, well thanks for that Toby,
03:00 appreciate it. No worries, make sure you come out next year and
03:03 come and enjoy it, have some fun here at the Glenmore Funny Express, it'll be a good time.
