@officialhattahdesertrace through the years 🏁

As we head into Hattah week, I thought it’d be fun to look back at how much this event has shaped my journey and how the moto industry transforms our “little town” each year.
2011. It all started with a simple point-and-shoot camera, capturing the action purely for the love of it.
2013 - 2015. Seeing my photos published in @dirtactionmag and @adbmagazine and on the official posters.
2017. After missing 2016 while living in Melbourne, I was back home and back where I belonged. At Hattah.
2018. Fulfilling a dream by lining up and racing Hattah myself. 📷 @knossy @jpmediaaus
2019. Missing the event because work got in the way.
2020. No Hattah, as COVID put the race on hold.
2021 - 2026. Back where I belong, behind the lens, documenting one of Australia’s biggest off-road races.
What started with a little point-and-shoot camera has turned into covering the event with professional camera gear and sharing the stories of riders chasing the same dream.

Looking back, it’s pretty crazy to see how much this race has been part of my life. Not only has my own journey changed over the years, but so has Hattah itself. From the growing popularity of the event to the incredible depth of rider talent, from local club riders to some of the best international talent. It’s been amazing to watch it continue to evolve year after year.
Along the way, I’ve watched mates take on their first Hattah, celebrate podiums, battle injuries, and keep coming back year after year.

Here’s to another Hattah week, making a few more memories, and capturing the moments that make this event so special.

I’d love to hear your thoughts too. What’s the biggest change you’ve noticed at Hattah over the years?

Welcome to the Australian Army Family. 🙏

It was an absolute privilege to watch the March Out of 45 and 46 Platoons, Delta Coy at 1 RTB Kapooka yesterday.

I'm genuinely proud of this young man, I first met on Kokoda two years ago.

He will go on to do great things so long as he keeps that head screwed on the way it is right now.

I actually felt a bit emotional watching the parade. I love the military, I love this country and it was so good to our next generation of young men and women earn their title of Australian Soldier. 😊🙏

I haven't been to Kapooka since 1990/91. It felt good to be back amongst the family who helped build me into who I am today.

The Sargeant on the bus explained 1RTB 'the Home of the Soldier' to everyone. He said "welcome and for those who have served, welcome home.'

I found that surprisingly emotional but it felt good to know I was home, even just for a visit.

The 2025 @betaaustralia RX motocross range has arrived, with a 450 4T and a 300 2T on offer. @stephentuff was on hand at the Aussie media launches to give us his thoughts on whether these Italian thoroughbreds are up to the challenge. Read the full review at bikesales.

Remember the SWM Superdual X? Released in Australia in 2018. It reminded me of the Italian made Husqvarna TE630. Do you know someone that has one or did you have one? A side story to me shooting this launch for SWM was: @adbmagazine editor Mitch Lees managed to crash like Marc Marquez while “hamming” it up for the camera. He went over the high side which resulted in a broken arm… we didn’t think it was broken but once he got back to Sydney from the Victorian High Country it was confirmed he’d cracked the bone. I on the other hand managed to cheat death by running head on into a tree! Why, you ask? Well the ABS brakes were great on the road but terrible on single trail. I had a moment going down a hill and there was no way to stop! With $20k of camera gear on my back I wasn’t going to jump off so I hit a tree. It stopped me and the bike and I actually knocked the tree over in the process..😳. Both @damien_ashenhurst and @stephentuff were on that launch to see it all unfold…..

Another trip where I get to spend tome@with a mate.

I met Tuffy back in the Crewfighter days at Kostya Tszyu’s gym pre- social media days so it was pretty chill to be able to share the Kokoda experience with him last week.

Mateship is a pillar at Isuarva Battlefield and a pillar for life for me. Very grateful to get to do what I do.

The punters asked for it.

Back by popular demand @stephentuff & I do some bench racing before this weekend’s AORC kick off.

Check out the very first episode of “Going Off Track”, NOW LIVE on all good podcast platforms!!!

This is a new format where we will be exploring controversial, innovative, and often spicy moto-related topics!

For this episode, we cover five big questions -

Should Vince Friese be permanently banned from racing?

Will the emergence of electric motorcycles result in a "Dark Age" for MX?

Should ProMX award points down to 40th place?

Should voice comms or a bar mounted light system be utilised in MX and SX?

Could Austin Forkner's injuries at Arlington SX have been avoided?

Joining me in the Moto Asylum to go deep, deep, deep are former team-manager and long-time moto journalist Stephen Tuff, moto sales-executive and veteran racer Dean Mosig, and Pro MX2 racer Zane Mackintosh.

The "Going Off Track" format is all about promoting open dialogue and having a few laughs along the way. And while we may not be able to solve all of the world’s problems, just maybe we can come up with some ideas that get people talking, and possibly even result in positive changes to the sport!

Let us know what you think, and if you have any suggestions for hot topics you'd like to hear on the show, shoot me a DM!
