Davo Johnson: The Best is Yet to Come (Part Two)
This week sees the return of Davo Johnson to the TT Podcast.
After making his TT debut in 2010, he missed out on the races in 2011. Davo tells Chris and Steve why that was, and why he returned in 2012 where he achieved a top ten finish in the Senior.
In 2019, Davo got the call from factory Honda to ride for them at the TT. He explains how it came at an interesting time for him and shares how he found riding alongside Ian Hutchinson on the team.
Davo couldn’t ride at TT 2022, but made his return to the Mountain Course at the Manx Grand Prix recently. The guys discuss how the course has changed since TT 2019.
The guys also look ahead to 2023, and find out what Davo’s priorities are moving forwards.
