After a Christmas and ‘off season’ winter break, Torq Moto returns as Tom Fuller joins DocWob and ‘Jeffro’ Perrett for the first episode of 2025 for more ‘pub bar style’ chat as the three discuss Tom’s love for motocross and how it’s steered him on a path to becoming one of the best and most respected helmet sprayers in the business.
In this first episode, the trio discuss Tom’s early years, from how he got into the sport following in his dad’s footsteps to watching three-time World 500cc champion Dave Thorpe regularly getting training motos in just a stone’s throw away from his home near the Old Dean in Camberley, and how it inspired him and drew him further into the sport. Tom talks with great affection about getting his first motorcycle along with his brother Toby and getting going in the sport and how that led him on to racing the British four stroke championship in the late 90’s and noughties, and setting up his own team with his good friend Stacey Harman.
More reminiscing continues in full flow when they get on to the subject of Moto Magazine from back in the day, when all three of them played their part in shaking up the establishment and bringing the magazine to life, with Tom as a contributing photographer and writer and Wobs and Jeffro as editors. Tom discusses his photographic heroes, and of course, there’s some tales of the Moto Mag days, notably the parties that quickly became legendary at the Dirt Bike Show at Stoneleigh.
