Two?s up | Rider and Pillion Racing



Joerg Mitter / Red Bull Content Pool

We live in a world where anything is possible, particularly when it comes to motorsport. If you want to race your car, your bike or your lawnmower, you never have to go far to do it. It really is a brilliant time to be alive. And it?s not just ordinary ?sportsbikes? that you can race, oh no, you can race every type of bike you can imagine (and probably some you can?t imagine too). But one thing I?ve never seen done, at least not in an official capacity anyway, is motorcycle two’s up ?rider and pillion? racing. And I think we?re missing a trick.

At select rounds of the MotoGP World Championship, if you?re trackside, you?ll get to watch the MotoE race. That?s the electric bike race. But I?m not sure how many people actually would want to watch that. That would probably be the time of day I went to find myself a cheeseburger, or to hunt Valentino Rossi down for an autograph and a selfie. It might be the future and the racing might be the best you?ve ever seen, but electric bikes just don?t make me hard. And I know I?m not the only one to suffer E-bike associated penile lethargy.

I can only imagine it would be just as exciting for the spectators as it would be for ...
