Doing Epic Stuff Podcast ep. 7 feat. (former) World Solo 24 Hour MTB Masochist Peter Arch


Listen Later

Riding mountain bikes is fun.
Riding mountain bikes for 24 hours in a competitive environment is straight up masochistic!

How did Peter Arch; a young, enthusiastic bike mechanic from Torquay, Australia, take his passion for riding bikes with mates to the point of becoming the World Solo 24 hour MTB Champion in under 18 months?!

Do you even ride, bro?!

Join Pete and I as we discuss:

  • How riding that long can create delusions of paparazzi hiding in bushes
  • Nutrition planning for 24 hours of pedaling (mmm; liquid cake!)
  • Self-sabotage / winning the mind game that is this sport
  • The tribe aspect to solo 24 hour MTB racing
  • The power of hugs (when your 14 hours in to a 24 hour MTB race) and you just... need... one...

Come get it.
