Welcome to a well overdue Late Brake Show (Non-Tour) ‘Idol Chat’, where we rope an Idol of Jonny’s and/or an Idol to many, for a sit down chat in our tatty brown leather chairs.

For this next ‘Idol Chat’ – of which there are 2 parts, this is just Part 1 – we picked the windiest week of 2022, to drag the tatty chairs down to Kent and meet a multiple motorcycle race champion.

The world of cars and bikes is often segregated and tribal, but we believe there's a lot of car folks - like us - who appreciate bikes/bike tech/bike racing/bike history, even if we don't ride much/at all.

Cue Shane Byrne. Six time British Superbike Champion Shane Byrne. Incessant vehicle cleaner. Astonishing death avoider and '80s Ford thrasher, Shane Byrne. An inexplicably talented rider and a constant smiler.

In Part 2 Shane shows us around his garage, packed full of amazing 2-wheeled heroes.
