MTB Q&A with Johnnie U

Say hey to Nathan, a.k.a The Muddy Mile on Instagram! A friend of mine told me I should start following Nate a couple moths ago and I'm glad I did! Nate creates content that assures people that you don't need an expensive bike, the latest tech or have to "Send it" to get out and enjoy a ride. From what I can tell from his content, he just loves pedaling and getting out in nature. Oh, and he has a thing for coffee and books as well. In a "World" of people posting drops, jumps and pics their expensive bikes and electronic gadgets he prefers a roll through the woods on a steel stead and soaking up all that nature has to offer. And he doesn't want you to forget that's all it takes to get on a bike. I love his stuff! So sit back and learn more about Nathans crusade.If you'd like to learn more about Nathan and TheMuddyMile you can find him here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themuddymile/Substack: https://themuddymile.substack.com/Got your bike dirty?!

Say hey to Anthony Culley .A.K.A Cuuhlee on Instagram. Anthony is a local South Florida rider that, believe it or not, has not been riding very long. But if you follow him you couldn't tell. If you've been watching from the beginning up until now though, you can see how fast he has progressed and is amazing! I love seeing people go far in such a short amount of time. As good as he is on a bike, we all have our spills. And Anthony had one of his wrecks go viral. But not like hundreds of thousands. His wreck has gotten over 10 MILLION views! Crazy right?! That's is what got me wanting to chat with Anthony. Not just to see how he's doing but to talk about going viral and how he was he able to get back on the bike after, what looked like, a horrific accident! What an inspiration!If you'd like to know more about Anthiny "CUUHLEE" You can find him here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cuuhlee/Need some cool gear with awesome graphics?!

SaY hey to Julia and Steph! These women are 2 shredders from Phoenix Arizona that love to ride so much they wanted to chat about it and share it with you on their own podcast! The name of said podcast is  @talkgnarlytome  ! Such a great name for a pod! Sad I didn't come up with it! What's great about their pod is that it's 2 great friends that enjoy mountain biking and talking about what they love. Not just random chat but they bring up topics that are relevant to all riders .Like, trail wins, trail fails, community and even touch on e-Biking. (TABOO!) HA! Things that you would chat about during a cold one (whatever that would be) after the ride. Their personalities and humor are infectious! Sit back and enjoy my chat with these amazing women doing great things for the community!If you'd like to follow Julia and Steph you can find them here:Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCPnd9rI1rS2b9vP7xcg3u8g Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkgnarlytome.pod/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/033CsMpLmRdxn2kPkj9q1eApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/talk-gnarly-to-me/id1896945932#mtb #bike #podcast

Say hey to Steve  @SpokesmanMTB  ! Steve has been on the show before and since then we have become good friends! We hung out during the Bentonville Bike Fest a couple years back and then last year we went to Creator Camp put on by  @TheDustyDutchman  and  @winmantrails  . Steve is the genuine deal. Talented at riding AND creating. And one of the funnest people I've ever met! He just returned from a 10,000 mile road trip in 10 weeks in the northern states and Canada! And he rode all the trails in between. I can't wait to here where he went and what life on the road that long was like!If you'd like to know more about Steve you can find him here:Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC_tAND1cRO7C18l0Azz_aBA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spokesmanmtb/#mtb #bike #podcast

Say hey to Gabriella Badieramonte a.k.a. Gabbi_MTB! Gabbi is a South Florida mountain biker that is doing her best to inspire other women to fall in love with riding. I followed her on the Instagram and loved what she was doing but when I met her in person, I had to have her on. Her joyful and positive attitude and energy is infectious! She creates all sorts of videos that are to motivate to get you out and ride and be healthy. From ride videos, to tutorials, to health and fitness. I will be honest, a lot of her videos are in Spanish. But I have a friend that helps me translate. Dumb gringo here! HA! She is doing so much for the community here in SoFlo and all over.

Say hey to Jeremy Jones, A.K.A  @jjonesmtb . If you are on Instagram and you ride a mountain bike, odds are high, you have Liked, Shared, or Reposted one of this guys videos! His mountain bike videos are just POVs and rides, they are works of comedy art! He some how has a great way of capturing the "FUNNY" in the mountain bike realm. He hails from Utah, which happens to be, a riders paradise. I can't wait to hear about the riding there. Honestly, I don't know too much about Jeremy. That's exactly why I wanted him on the pod. To get to know the man behind the hilarity! If you'd like to check Jeremy out if you haven't all ready you can find him here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jjones.mtb/?hl=enYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCK9Rr36BCSak_rzvijY97gg Go your bike dirty?!

Say hey to Jaime a.k.a  @MTBTank  ! I meet this rider out in California at Skypark during  @AdamMock  Ride & Shine event twice and just thought he was a solid guy. He was friendly and just stoked to see another rider from another part of the country coming out to ride and support the community. Not only is a shredder but he is such a huge supporter of the community! He makes Youtube videos and Instagrams but what I like about Tank is that he is involved. He helps out with trail building, getting out the word about riding groups such as EVA, Expeditionary Veterans Assoc. and bringing the stoke wherever he rides. So happy to get a chnace to chat with him and find out what motivates him to love the sport so much and everything that goes along with it!If you'd like to know more about Tank, you can find him here.Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCxvd8QO3LLwjDEJLxe1F6OQ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mtb_tank/It's getting hot out!

Say hey to Ryan Butler,  @ButlerDoesIt76  ! He's a mountain biker that hails from Arizona. So I'm guessing he likes to ride chuck! HA! When Ryan says he "DOES IT" he means it! He still rides bikes even after a liver transplant, a bum knee and and heart problems! Ryan seems tough as nails! In fact he was even attacked by a Javelina on a night ride that left him with a broken arm. And when he got better, back on the bike he went. So what's you excuse? This guy was even in a metal band that shared the stage with Metallica! What?! I'm so happy Ryan wanted to come on the Pod and share his story.

Say hey to Steve a.k.a  @BentSpokesMTB  ! He's a shredder that hails from New Jersey. I started following Steve years ago after I had chatted with another Jersey rider  @brian_on_a_bike  . I loved watching this guy ride. He rides the way I was I could. He can't keep the tires on the ground! HE SENDS IT! He doesn't just ride he gets involved in the trail building as well. So I reached out to him a couple years back and he wasn't ready to do a pod. But thankfully for me and you, he is now!
