The Speedshop S01E05 - Weston Beach Race

The Speedshop

Sinopse

Titch has a desire to re-enter an event he's not competed in since 2014 - the mighty Weston Beach motorcycle race.

With the four-mile sand course containing obstacles the size of houses, it is one of the most punishing beach races in the world. The three-hour endurance test takes its toll on riders and machines, and Titch's battered body - the result of years of Special Forces abuse - isn't as injury-free as when he last competed.

But if concerns over his own fitness weren't enough, he wants to make things even harder by entering on a vintage scrambler the same age as he is. Which will break first - the 47 year-old bike or the 47 year-old man?

In preparation for the race, it's not just the bike that undergoes a rebuild. Titch visits orthopaedic surgeon Charles Willis-Owen to see what, if anything, can be done about his damaged knees and ankles before the flag drops at Weston.

Titch is joined in the race by last-minute entry Billy. Titch may not be in the best physical shape, but injured military veteran Billy is attempting the challenge with just one fully-functioning arm.
