Front End Chatter

The first Front End Chatter of 2015 covers such diverse subjects as: - Simon enters a race through a village on his FireBlade, only to find out that's it's not really a race. - The first (and last) Front End Chatter 2014 Manufacturer Countdown, pop-pickers. - Listeners' problems solved (or at least answered), from trials clubs to tourism advice. - Does racing sell road bikes? - Do tall-rounders make sportsbikes look silly? Plus, Front End Chatter's off-road correspondent JP (@Jonpe23) returns to discuss the ins, outs and upside-downs of the Dakar Rally, including: - Who nearly didn't even make the start line this year. - What the words "mousse", "liason" and "fesh-fesh" mean. - Why you don't necessarily want to finish first (but to finish first, first you have to finish...) - Was the Dakar better when it actually went to Dakar?
