Who is Alex Gobert?
Alex Gobert
Alex Gobert, 26, is a former professional motorcycle racer who began racing motocross at six years of age before embarking on a road racing career as a Junior when he was 14 years old. Crowned Australian Junior Road Racing Champion at his first attempt in 1998, Alex then moved to Senior racing and quickly attracted Honda Australia to sign him up to race for the factory Australian Superbike and Supersport team in 2000 and 2001.
Two successful seasons with Honda Australia saw Alex, the youngest of three Gobert brothers, win races at the highest level in Australian competition before he was signed by American Honda to ride for the Erion Honda factory satellite team in the AMA Road Racing Series in 2002 - at just 18 years of age.
Remaining in the USA for four seasons at Honda with multiple AMA podiums and top four results in both the AMA Supersport and Formula Xtreme Championships, Alex then decided to return home to Australia and pursue a career in motorcycle journalism.
Dedicating his time to learning the ropes of journalism, Alex has worked for Australian Motorcycle News as the sport editor since 2006, creating himself a successful new career as a writer and test rider for Australia’s leading motorcycle magazine.
Along with his AMCN commitments, Alex also works for Australian Auto Action and is a freelance writer for magazines and websites around the world, with work published in American magazines Cycle News and Road Racer X.
