The Team

There have been a few changes in the Team throughout the years, but all good men. There is no room for Prima Donnas on a wall of death show. Everyone has to get on with the job, whatever it is - digging a hole in the ground, painting, driving, building up and pulling down. A wall of death rider needs to have considerably more than just riding talent on his or her C.V. A heavy goods licence, woodworking skills and a sound knowledge of motorcycle mechanics are essential.
