  Ken Roczen, GNCC vs Australia, and Training Myths w/ Ben Greenwood

  Aug 1, 202658 min

  Ken Roczen posted a reel of himself doing normal, unglamorous strength training. No BOSU balls, and none of the sport-specific fluff we're all used to seeing. So I had to bring on Ben Greenwood, founder of Race Ready Offroad Coaching, to break down why that clip mattered so much to him. Ben's been coaching off-road racers for almost a decade now, and he doesn't sugarcoat it. Most of us skip the boring fundamentals because they don't look cool on Instagram, and then we wonder why our bodies fall apart by our thirties. We get into it all, man. Why an eight-week program is basically a joke when you actually do the math on how many times you touch a barbell. His own back locking up at 30 years old and thinking his racing career was over. How a "qualified" nutritionist almost sent him into the ground chasing a keto diet while he was training like a maniac. And since he flew out to the States earlier this year, we compare GNCC to Australian off-road racing, why you can actually walk out and watch your rider on track over here but not over there, and we go down the Josh Strang and Shane Watts rabbit hole because I had to ask who the greatest Aussie export to make it in America really is. If you're a vet rider just trying to keep riding your dirt bike without your body falling apart, this one's for you. Go follow Ben on Instagram at @offroadperformancecoach and check out Race Ready Offroad Coaching if you want to actually build a program instead of guessing.

  Ricky Russell on J Day GPs, West Hare, NORCS and Future Dad Life

  Jul 3, 202638 min

  Ricky Russell “retired” from pro racing at the end of 2025 and moved back home to Washington, but he’s somehow busier – and faster – than ever. In this episode we talk about how less pressure and more fun turned into him leading J Day Off Road GPs on a used Kawasaki he bought off Nick DeFeo, then flying back West to win AMA West Hare Scrambles rounds and stack NORCS overalls on a Lynnwood Motoplex / Team Green KX450X. It’s a wild contrast: day job, new baby on the way, and still showing up to beat guys who are actually chasing championships. We get into how Ricky found his way back to the East Coast for J Day, what it’s like lining up at iconic venues like Bostwick Creek and Budds Creek, and how the viral FPV drone clips barely keep up with him through the woods. Then we talk West Coast: Timber Beast, The Great Escape in Washington, and the kind of late‑race pass on Mateo Oliveira that proves he didn’t lose anything when he stepped away from full‑time GNCC and National Enduro racing. Even with a few technical glitches, we still dive into GNCC‑style pit stops, hydration and nutrition, and what Ricky likes in his pit bottles – including when he reaches for a Coke for that last‑lap push. We wrap it up by talking about him becoming a dad, why being intentional with your time matters, and how I’m juggling my own recovery from a 50‑mile ultra and back issues while still trying to get more seat time.

  Bark Busters & Timekeepers: Enduro Evolution with 8‑Time Champ Mike Lafferty

  May 1, 202653 min

  Eight‑time National Enduro Champion Mike Lafferty joins Brian to kick things off with old‑school timekeeping enduros, why he believes the restart format “saved” national enduro, and how NEPG‑era changes grew rider numbers and simplified the sport. They move into how reading trail shaped his speed, what GNCC taught him about real race pace, and the timekeeping tricks, route sheets, and “race within the race” details he picked up from Alan Randt, Randy Hawkins, and his dad. From there, Mike looks back on his 1997–2007 championship run, near‑miss titles decided by a single point, and the KTM years working side‑by‑side with Alan and Melissa Randt as his mechanic, agent, and de‑facto team. The conversation then shifts to bike choice and feel—why he’s always preferred 250s over 300 two‑strokes, how the KTM 400 four‑stroke changed his career, and how sprint enduro in the U.S. has helped riders better prepare for ISDE. In the final part of the episode, they dig into the evolution from full‑wrap bark busters to modern flag handguards, Mike’s philosophy on plowing through trees versus steering around them, and his new chapter as a Sherco ambassador and East Coast sales manager, including why the mid‑size four‑stroke and carb’d two‑strokes grabbed his attention after knee replacement. ------ If this conversation resonates, share it with a riding buddy who takes racing (or themselves) a little too seriously, and make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss the next Mindset of the Racer episode.

  Did the FARM14 Two‑Day Enduro change American Enduro?

  Apr 21, 202628 min

  The Farm14 National Enduro was the ANEC's first attempt at a two-day enduro format. They split up the classes between Saturday and Sunday, as well as added in a few extra tests for the A racers. In this Seat Time Podcast Roundtable, we discuss if the format worked and if the racers are looking forward to another one. The guests in this episode are Ryan Moss, Liam Capodice, and John Yantek. Ryan and Liam were Saturday racers, while John was a Sunday racer. The Seat Time Host is of course Brian Pierce. If you were at the American National Enduro Championship two-day enduro in Mississippi, what did you think of the enduro and Kevin Windam's property? Would you attend another one? Should this be the American National Enduro format for all races? What did we miss when it comes to progressing the national enduros here in America? Support the show

  Throttle Therapy Keeps Andrew Short on the Fun Program

  Apr 6, 202657 min

  In this episode of the Seat Time Podcast, Andrew Short joins me to talk about “throttle therapy” and why throwing a leg over a dirt bike can make everything else just disappear. We dig into how Enduro racing helps him reset his mind, what flow state really feels like, and why he thinks fun has to stay at the center of riding, even when the stakes are high. Andrew also breaks down his go-to FX 350 setup, how he approaches nutrition and hydration as a lifestyle, and what it is really like navigating at rally speeds with Seth Quintero when big money is on the line. We get into parenting and moto, internal versus external motivation for kids, the pressure on today’s pros, and why the lack of young riders and club volunteers genuinely worries him. If you love dirt bikes, Enduro, rally, or just need a reminder of why this sport grabs us so hard, this conversation with Andrew is a rad mix of honesty, perspective, and stoke that keeps building on the “fun program” idea we started with Ryan Sipes. ------ This is Mindset of the Racer – Episode 3, a 12‑episode 2026 series on the Seat Time podcast feed focused on the mental side of going faster, riding longer, and enjoying dirt bikes more. If this conversation resonates, share it with a riding buddy who takes racing (or themselves) a little too seriously, and make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss the next Mindset of the Racer episode.
