TK Remembered

TK Remembered

This entry is part 16 of 22 in the series Adventure Rider Issue #2

In August a swag of riders got together to celebrate an Aussie bike-journo pioneer, Tony “TK” Kirby.

For those who’ve been adventure riding since before there was such a thing, TK has legendary status – the kind of status where a big group of riders from all over Australia gathers to ride in his honour each year.

That’s largely because in 1995, when Australia was embracing the Thumper Nats, Yamaha was messing about with a four stroke motocrosser and some young Americans had just begun making the videos that were to give birth to freestyle
motocross, TK walked out of his job as editor of Australia’s biggest dirt-bike magazine and kicked off his own venture, SideTrack Magazine.
