Today, I’m joined by Annie Ford. Perhaps best known for her recent world record of over 55,000m descending in 24hours, Annie is an adventurer, endurance athlete, and passionate environmental advocate. Over the last few years, Annie has taken on some incredible challenges, but her journey isn’t just about pushing physical limits - it’s about using adventure to make a difference. We talk about her transition from marine scientist to activism, and how she uses extreme endurance to raise awareness for important causes. Annie also shares her thoughts on overcoming fear, finding purpose, and embracing adventure. This is an inspiring conversation with someone who’s redefining what’s bikes are capable of doing for us and our planet. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Annie Ford.

Today, I’m joined by Dan Booker, one of Tasmania’s finest. He’s raced it all, from downhill to enduro, tackling everything from Red Bull Hardline to the Enduro World Series. But his path hasn’t been straightforward. We talk about making the switch from downhill, dealing with injuries, and the realities of sponsorship. You'll also hear how Sam Hill played a pivotal role in Dan's story.

Dan’s got a laid-back style, but don’t let that fool you, his approach to racing is calculated, and his journey is full of lessons. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Dan Booker.

Today we’re joined by YouTube sensation and arguably the most famous mountain biker on the planet, Fabio Wibmer. Fabio rarely appears on podcasts, and in this episode, he opens up about topics he’s never discussed in this format before.

We dive into what drove his move from Specialized to Canyon and how he’s built his personal brand into a global phenomenon. Fabio shares insights into his companies - Sick!, Nineyard, and Bikeflip - and even breaks down how his income is structured. We also explore how Fabio feels about fame and discuss the opportunities it brings like riding a MotoGP bike with Dani Pedrosa, passengering in an F1 car with Max Verstappen and thrashing Can-Am buggies with Travis Pastrana. Of course, we talk all things YouTube and content creation, including a behind-the-scenes look at his incredible Streif edit, where he tackled jumps at over 100kph with a spiked tire spinning inches below him.

This was a fun, open, and truly unique conversation with one of the most captivating figures in mountain biking. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Fabio Wibmer.

You can also watch this episode on YouTube here.

You can follow Fabio on Instagram here, on TikTok here and find all his videos here.

We’re deep in the middle of the 2025 downhill team moves, and with all the structural changes the UCI has made to the downhill World Cup, things have gotten pretty complicated. This week, we’re joined by Alan Milway, Norco Race Division team manager and coach to the stars, to help us break it all down.

We’ll go team by team, giving you the inside scoop on who’s riding what and how we think it might shake out this season. Now, a quick disclaimer—this was recorded the day after the team submissions to the UCI, so not all the facts were available. In some cases, we’ve had to piece together the puzzle, and we might not have got it all spot on.

Case in point: my biggest slip-up so far was speculating that Commencal Schwalbe by Les Orres might struggle to make the top-15 team cut. Turns out, I hadn’t realised just how many points Lisa Baumann racked up outside of World Cup racing. Top work, Lisa, and apologies to the team for underestimating you!

Alright, this episode has heaps of insight ahead from one of the sharpest minds in the business. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Alan Milway.

OneUp Components are renowned for their innovative, high-quality mountain bike parts. In fact, Pinkbike readers voted their dropper posts, handlebars, and flat pedals as favorites in 2024. So, when I heard that OneUp was launching a brand-new clip pedal, I couldn’t wait to learn more.

Built around the reliable Shimano SPD cleat system, OneUp has engineered the thinnest clip pedal on the market. They’ve struck the perfect balance—trail pedal weight combined with a gravity-sized platform. And let me tell you, this is the first clip pedal that’s stayed on my bike for more than a few rides in nearly 30 years.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Peter Skarsgard, the brilliant engineer behind this groundbreaking pedal. We’ll dive into the details of the design and development process. We also explore OneUp’s philosophy for flat pedal design, compare aluminum vs. composite pedals, and even get a little tease of something exciting coming soon from OneUp in the flat pedal world. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with OneUp Components' Peter Skarsgard.
