Bike World TV Presenters
Chris Northover
If it’s got wheels, Chris will be excited by it. A lifetime bike rider from a family full of motorbikes, he now counts himself very fortunate to be testing, riding, developing and reviewing bikes for a living. Chris keeps telling everyone he’s retired from racing, but he has raced a bike in some guise every year since 2003. When he’s not riding bikes, he’ll be elbows deep in whatever old relic is on his beloved workbench this week. A terminal bike nut, there really is no cure.
He's the one on the right ;-)
Adam Child
Known as Chad to most, he hails from Yorkshire and is renowned for his time as a senior road tester at MCN - Motorcycle News spanning from 2005 to 2019. However, his passion for professionally testing bikes can be traced back to the late 90s.
Having attended over 350 bike launches and ridden over a million road test miles across numerous tracks worldwide, he's an accomplished international road racer with podium finishes in New Zealand and race wins at Oliver's Mount, along with two top ten placements at the prestigious Isle of Man TT. He has an eclectic racing portfolio, ranging from a podium finish at the Goodwood Revival on a Manx Norton to a Honda Fireblade at the TT.
Besides racing, he also enjoys off-road biking and restoring classic motorcycles, as demonstrated by his recent restoration of a Ducati 900S, and is equally content on a race track with his elbow down or navigating through muddy terrain. You may have seen glimpses of his restorative work on social media platforms.
Lara Small
Lara Small is a motorbike racer, presenter and engineer. Now on the Bike World team, Lara uses her short circuit racing credentials and early YouTube efforts (see @Laramoto) to create the very best motorbike TV show with her fellow presenters.
Since catching the riding bug in her teens and quickly realising that the public roads were a risky place to push her limits, Lara soon moved on to excelling on track. Capable of jumping on any bike, Lara learned her race craft on a CB500, podiumed on a SRAD and recently excelled on a Yamaha R6. Flattracking, green laning and motocross now all contribute to Lara's latest offroad endeavours.
When not chasing apexes, Lara holds down a full time job as an Engineering Manager at Rolls-Royce (not the cars!) and serves as a Reservist in the British Army. Lara is happiest on a long European tour on her Ducati Supersport S, although she gets a bit tired of waiting for her partner to catch up.
Neil Hawker
Devon born and bred with motorcycles at the forefront from the beginning, Neil has never been far from 2 wheels and learnt most of what he knows good and bad from serving in the British Army.
Offroad is his passion and he has been competing at the highest levels from trials, enduro, motocross and even the Dakar Rally. If he’s not riding he’s cooking, eating, or thinking about riding. Although he’s a busy man after taking the role of British enduro championship manager alongside being an off-road riding instructor and a firefighter.
Former REME mechanic in the Army, longtime Enduro racer, Dakar Rally finisher and general funny man, Neil joined the Bikeworld Team in 2020. An incredibly skilful and thoughtful rider, the Devonian brings a fresh perspective to the team and riding world through an unrivalled enthusiasm for everything in front of him.
