Startline Ep 11 - Back in my happy place: Dan Nurrish (and Bailey)
We meet Dan Nurrish in this episode - a racer whose passion never left him, even when life forced him off the bike for a number of years.
Dan grew up around motorcycles, and those early memories have shaped everything, and now with his sidekick and canine manager Bailey by his side, he's aiming to make the dream of Manx Grand Prix 2026 a reality.
We know it isn't easy - sponsorship is tough to find and the demands are high.
But for Dan, racing isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifelong passion - and he’s now getting the chance to chase it again.
You can follow Dan's racing page on Facebook and Instagram.
Startline is on Facebook and Instagram too, so give the pages a follow and keep up to date with the latest episodes.
