CHAPTER 407 Ft. Davey Todd

Davey Todd joins Gypsy Tales for Chapter 407 to discuss the Isle of Man TT, the most dangerous motorcycle race in the world. From winning at the TT to surviving career-changing crashes, Davey shares what it takes to race at nearly 200 mph on public roads where the margin for error is almost nonexistent. We discuss Davey's devastating Daytona crash, missing the 2026 Isle of Man TT, learning the legendary Mountain Course, battling injuries, racing against TT legend Michael Dunlop, and the mindset required to compete at the highest level of road racing. Davey also opens up about fear, mental preparation, sacrifice, and the journey from working a regular job to becoming one of the fastest road racers on the planet. This is one of the most honest conversations we've had about motorcycle racing, the Isle of Man TT, road racing, risk, and what drives riders to keep coming back to the world's toughest race.
