In this episode of the World Hard Enduro Podcast, we dive deep into the interesting story of Radford Chugg, the hard enduro rider who took on the 2024 FIM Hard Enduro World Championship. Finishing 11th overall in his debut full season, Radford's journey is anything but ordinary.

From his roots in trials riding to becoming known as the only rider using a unique thumb throttle technique, Radford shares the raw, unfiltered story of his racing career. Hear about the challenges of being a privateer, the financial hurdles of competing at a world championship level, and the incredible experiences of racing across different countries.

Discover how Radford went from sleeping in a campervan between races to securing sponsorships with Sherco UK and Eurotek for the 2025 season. He opens up about his most challenging race (spoiler: Romaniacs nearly broke him), his favorite moment in Nashville, and provides invaluable advice for aspiring hard enduro racers.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone considering racing the world championship and is proof that you don’t need many years of experience to still have a good time!
