2022 World Cup Downhill racing is here and Sven Martin and Alan Milway are my co-hosts for this episode of Bench Racing.  We will cover the season and bring you review episodes of each race throughout the year.  We break down the upcoming 2022 season with a preview show and the riders to watch for 2022 with racing kicking off at Lourdes, France on 27th March 2022. 

This podcast series is brought to you by Crankbrothers.  Crankbrothers is synonymous with the DH racing circuit, and last year celebrated 11 years in a row of Elite World Champs wins with the Mallet DH pedal! Determined to improve the shoe and pedal interface for riders, Crankbrothers spent the last two years developing their own range of shoes, launching late last year, and in 2021 we’ll see those shoes in use on the World Cup DH circuit with riders like Luca Shaw, Bernard Kerr, Angel Suarez, and former World Champs Oisin O’Callaghan and Camille Balanche, as well as many more.
