Real dirt-bike talk from the pits.
ADB Magazine is a dirt-bike show built around tests, race debriefs, and interviews from the motocross and enduro world. It favors real riding feel over polished chatter, moving from chassis and suspension details to track conditions, crash movement, and race-day judgment.

ADB Magazine is dirt-bike media translated into a loose, technical podcast format. It centers on motocross, enduro, supercross, bike testing, and the people who live around those scenes. Mitch Lee gives the show its main line, often opening with a practical question riders are already arguing about. Is the Triumph really just close to a Yamaha? Can one small Yamaha suit kids and adults? Did a rider win because the track suited him, or because he adapted faster? The answers usually come through conversation rather than tidy verdicts. That suits the subject. Bike feel is hard to explain cleanly, so the show lets testers talk through power, comfort, ergonomics, braking, tires, suspension, and confidence until the picture sharpens. The Yamaha YZ450F and Triumph TF450MX comparison is a good example, using lap times and rider impressions without pretending the numbers tell the whole story. The TTR 110 episode gets useful by giving the bike to riders aged six, eight, ten, twelve, and forty, then letting the different bodies and skill levels expose what the machine is actually for. Race wraps bring the same approach to Australian Enduro Championship and Australian Supercross coverage. Guests and contributors talk about track shape, first-sprint speed, braking zones, crowd size, class battles, and the small advantages that matter over a weekend. Interviews widen the frame. Brady from Atlas explains neck-brace design through adjustment, mobility, body shape, and crash movement. Hamish McDonald’s conversation follows racing across New Zealand, England, Germany, and world championship events during a disrupted period. Andy Wilsch’s appearance keeps the emphasis on career path and race context rather than celebrity polish. The show is brisk, familiar, and sometimes rough around the edges. That is part of its value. It sounds like people sorting out what happened, what worked, and what riders should notice next time they are at the track.
Made for: Built for motocross, enduro, and supercross followers who care about setup feel, race context, and honest bike impressions. It best suits listeners already comfortable with dirt-bike jargon and Australian racing references.
What sets it apart: ADB Magazine stands apart by mixing magazine-style testing with conversational rider evidence: lap times, kid testers, race winners, contributors, and technical guests all feed into the verdicts. The show is less about headlines and more about what the bike, gear, or track actually did under real riders.
