This week we caught up with the Florida kid, Josh Meyers! We chatted with Josh about all things BMX from him growing up racing both NBL and ABA, turning pro and racing World Cup events, how he started riding for Answer BMX/SSquared Bicycles, competing at the 2012 Olympic trials, being a father, and lots of fun BS in between!

This week we chatted to Tre Whyte about his latest Instagram post saying he’s off the GB program, we discussed the cancellation of the last World Cup round in Rock Hill, chatted with the newly crowned World Cup Champion Connor Fields, and ranted about how BMX Racers always get asked about doing tricks and never get the recognition we deserve for being the racers we are. Also we had great guests call in to talk all things BMX!

Enjoy! #chatter

This week we had Thomas Allier on the show to talk all things BMX and his career! Thomas is one of the legends of the sport and greatest to ever do it. We chatted with him about his first world title in 1998, his move to the US and joining 'The Firm' in the process, winning his second World title in 2000, how the sport changed and evolved through the 2000's and his experience at the 2008 Olympic games in Beijing as well! Thomas had an amazing career, it was a pleasure to hear some of his story and share some laughs in the process! I'm sure we'll have him on again in the future to dive deeper on some topics, but for now we hope you guys enjoy the show! #chatter

This week we had our inaugural Live Radio Show! It was a little rough and janky to get things going with the recording and wifi glitches, but janky is as janky does.  We had a multitude of friends call into the show to talk about whats going on in life right now and what the future looks like for Bmx and sport in general! We also got word of some rider beef that may get settled this weekend, so you wont want to miss that!

It was great to kick off this new addition to the Coffee Chatter empire that is these Live Radio shows. Hope you all enjoy, onwards and upwards from here!
