Now Playing Suede Disintegrate

Chris and Lorna Moore

Journey to a Dream

Friday, 22 August 2025 - 30 minutes

In this episode, we explore what life is like on both sides of the track.

Chris Moore is a highly experienced and successful Manx Grand Prix and TT rider - he won his Newcomers MGP race, and although he doesn’t live on the Isle of Man, his Manx roots mean his heart is firmly here.

His wife Lorna has been by his side for almost the entirety of his racing career. She shares what it’s like to watch the sport from a very different perspective: as the partner of a rider tackling one of the most demanding courses in the world.

Both Chris and Lorna are deeply dedicated to road racing. In fact, when they arrived on the Island ahead of Classic TT 2025 qualifying, they even signed on as marshals for the very first time - adding yet another layer to their involvement in the sport.

This episode really does have it all: love, racing, a surprise lottery win, and even a reminder that Chris might not be your best pick for a pub quiz team…
