From 1980s Grand Prix motocross to adventure riding in the 2020s has been a natural progression for Yamaha stalwart, Lyndon ‘Heffo’ Heffernan.

Engadine’s Police Citizen’s Youth Club minibike club was the Heffernan brothers’ introduction to dirt-bike competition. With mother and father both keen and successful rally-car competitors, motorsport was in the boys’ blood.

After ‘fanging around the pits at Menai’ where riders like Stephen Gall learned their trade, Lyndon made his way to Europe and, doing things the hard way, held his own in Grand Prix motocross for three seasons.
