In this video, professional motocross champion Tommy Searle takes on an exciting challenge: testing whether he can defeat the UK’s fastest young 85cc rider, John Slade, while riding that very same small-displacement bike.

The video kicks off with lighthearted banter and preparation as Searle inspects the youth-sized 85cc machine, highlighting the massive contrast between a professional adult rider (EX MXGP rider) and a youth racing setup. Despite the physical constraints and awkward ergonomics of riding a much smaller motorcycle, Searle brings his years of elite Grand Prix and British Championship experience to the track.

Throughout the session, viewers get a look at behind-the-scenes interactions, technical riding insights, and intense head-to-head track battles. Searle praises the young talent, acknowledging the impressive speed and skill of the rising British star. Ultimately, the video showcases a blend of high-level coaching, raw competitive fun, and mutual respect between a seasoned veteran and the next generation of motocross talent.
