Welcome To Episode 17 of Your Story.
Today we talk with Craig Longhurst who I met recently in a short discussion one night with friends over
a beer.
Craig showed intense passion for racing Sidecars of which I know nothing about but I found out that he is also into building Cafe Racers along with his work as a fitter repairing large turbines used in power generation throughout Australia.
Craig giving us a small insight into the world of 
heavy engineering and the passion that some have for building things that they can use to move them in some of the most exciting ways. These are the mechanical trades.
