Introduction for Joey

Please use this for talk intro instead of the bio.

Short intro: In 2017 our speaker was awarded “South African Offroad biker of the Year.” But as you will soon discover, there’s a lot more to his story than just racing motorcycles. Please join me in welcoming, Joey Evans.

Long Intro: Our next speaker has ridden and raced motorcycles all over the globe. From the hot desert dunes of Mauritania to the high-altitude salt flats of Bolivia. Through the wild and dusty Botswana bushveld and the rough mountain tracks of Canada. He’s ridden along the dry salty shores of the dead sea and through the lush Blue Mountains of Australia. But there was always one racing dream that stood out amongst the others. A dream that would force him to a place he never wished to go, a journey that would define his life. Please join me in welcoming, Joey Evans.
