The Brierleys’ Big-League Debut

6 years ago | Words: Andy Wigan | Photos: Jarrad Duffy

While most teams are made up of mates of similar ages, some are multi-generational. And this year’s Team and Outright winners at the Transmoto 6-Hour at Stroud were a perfect example. Making up the Motohub Husqvarna team was young off-road racing standouts, Josh and Mitch Brierley, and their racing mentor cum coach, 30-year-old Jarrod Bewley – himself a former national champ in both the AORC and A4DE. Incredibly, the 6-Hour was the Brierley brothers’ first-ever Senior race. And something tells us it’ll be a memorable one for these 16-year-old twins. Having gone 1-2 in the J4 class (the premier Junior class) at this year’s AORC, these likeable young blokes are set for big things in the sport.
