MTB Q&A with Johnnie U

Scot and Brandon are the guys behind Gnarkansas! What is Gnarkansas? It's a place where they showcase how awesome Northwest Arkansas is! Whether it be on skateboards or mountain bikes or climbing rock faces! They are here to show you the GNAR! And their passion for the Gnar has helped them create their own podcast called Naturally Gnar. There's a lot of GNAR here! HA! I actually got to hang with them in Betonville and ride with Scot and I have to say, they live up to the name!

JT @TheDustyDutchman is an amazing mountain biking content creator! But his "BIKE DEN" is something most of us only dream about having! He had one at his last house but he moved and now he has created another! And it is jaw dropping! He has been painstakingly building out his basement and shooting his progress to show it off in a Youtube series. And I'm lucky enough that he will give us a tour live on my show! Yeah me!

Austin, Javier and Bobby are buds and Socal shredders! Their passion for mountain biking doesn't just stop at riding and making great videos, they love it so much, they've come up with a MTB apparel brand that really stand outs! They are Generation MTB! Shirts, hats and jerseys with a cool design take off from a famous music video channel with a dismembered hand displaying the Shaka! If you don't know it, take my word, IT'S COOL! On top of all that they do so much for the MTB community as well. So sit back and enjoy this fun chat and find out how it all came to be.

Jeff Jackson @jeffjacksonmtb8236 is a shredder from Arizona. He's livin the Sedona Bike Fest year round! A place I only dream about. Lucky guy! HA! I've seen him post so much on the Instas that I had to get him on the show. I just love what he's doin with being creative and seeing all the great places he rides. Oh and he's a Fezzari guy...excuse me, Ari guy. I love catting with people who ride that bike. They seem to be very passionate about those rigs.

A lot has gone on since then and I wanted to catch up. And luckily for us he was willing to do it. If you want to check out his stuff you can find him here:
