With Covid-19 hitting hard at the minute George & Jack chat with Danny via Zoom about everything from that 2011 run at Champery to the 2020 season ahead!

Earlier this week #gastoflat @adbrayton & #roidy @daniel_bladon12 dropped into the studio to record the final podcast episode of season one. Topics of conversation included smashing wheels, finding grip & strapping ginger to your body as a post crash remedy. It’s taken us the best part of 9 months to get this episode done but it’s well worth the wait; MTB Real Talk from start to finish!
