This week I am talking to Zak Dempster. Zak is an ex-professional rider for Israel SUN, he finished his career in 2019 and has now transitioned into the staff at the same team, this year that has meant taking a management role at the development squad, but also experiencing being a DS at the Vuelta for the World Tour team.
We talk about his development up through the sport and how the scene has changed for young riders trying to make it to the professional ranks today, making the most of the equipment and resources you have available to you to stand out from the rest. He talks about his job and what it currently involves and how their team has coped with a disrupted year. If you want some tips as a young rider he has quite a few answers...
I really enjoyed chatting to Zak and I learnt a lot, so I hope you enjoy. More podcasts are lined up so subscribe so you don't miss any!
