Just Ride

How to feel like Lizzo on the startline with World Champion Evie Richards


Listen Later

On the eve of the World Championships in Glasgow, Rob & Eliot are joined by UK rider Evie Richards – one of the most positive, inspirational, and infectious characters on the circuit.

Evie has always been ambitious. She dreamt of competing at the Olympics as a child, initially as a hockey player, but after discovering a love for cycling in 2013, she made a switch to racing bikes and achieved her dream by representing Team GB in Tokyo. She is one of Britain’s most promising cross-country and cyclo-cross stars as well as a World Champion after her 2021 victory at the UCI MTB XCO World Championships.

But it hasn’t always been easy. In this episode of Just Ride, Evie talks openly and honestly about the physical and mental struggles she went through while chasing her dream and how, after working with coaches and sports psychologists, she has found a work/life balance that means she can focus on what really matters.

We could all do with a little more Evie in our lives!

We’ve all got our origin stories - get in touch with @robwarner970 & @eliotjackson or [email protected] with your tales of how you got into bikes.

New episodes of Just Ride released every other Tuesday. You can listen on redbull.com or wherever you get your podcasts. You can also watch the episodes on RedBull TV.
