Joe Murray, current Shimano SKUNK tester, is a living legend of mountain biking. Those who ride with him today know he still only has one speed - FAST! Joe has been a key figure in mountain biking since the sport's inception. Not only was Joe the first ever NORBA national champion, he also has a racing pedigree that few have matched since. Joe began to take on product development roles beginning in the mid 1980s, and continues these today, having designed product with key companies including Shimano, Marin, VooDoo, and Fisher. Join us for a conversation about the early days, the transition into product development, and the best parts of the culture within the sport.
