December 01, 2020 MCL Ep 7: Chatting with Amy Beth McDougall
I was super stoked to interview Amy McDougall, a professional mountain bike racer, a mountain bike skills coach, and a hair stylist!

It was great chatting to Amy, she has done amazingly well in the racing scene, and she is such a lovely person - I was so pleased she met up with little ol’ me for My Cycling Lifestyle Podcast!
We chatted about a few different aspects of Amy’s life (including the obvious riding and hair-styling), so after listening I think you will know a bit more about this awesome powerful redhead and what makes her tick!
For styling both on AND off the bike, you can contact Amy:

I had so much fun interviewing 15 year old Lilian Baber, and just before I published this episode she had won the SA Youth Ladies XCO 2020 Championships - well done to her for the consistent and well-deserved achievements!
I met Lilly at Summerplace Farm Stay in the Waterberg, she is sponsored by Head Bikes SA through Positive Sports Solutions, and coached by Deon from TrainingPoint Cycle Coaching.

November 01, 2020 My Cycling Lifestyle Ep 5: Summerplace Farm Stay Mountain Bike Destination, I chat to Simone Baber
Episode 5
Summerplace Farm Stay is a mountain biking destination located near Vaalwater, in the province of Limpopo, South Africa.
I chat with Simone Baber, who owns and runs the farm with her husband Dave and their 3 kids Ben, Josh and Lilly.
Beautiful accommodation, great facilities and magical bushveld (with 40km of single track) allows riders of all levels to experience the fantastic variety of trails in and around the farm.
Families can enjoy the gentle picturesque trails together, relaxing in the comfortable and well-equipped rooms (self-catering, or arranged catering in advance), alternatively for those with an adventurous spirit there are challenging flow lines with expertly built drop-offs and gap jumps of different levels to test and progress your skills.
Able to sleep up to 30 guests in the accommodation on the farm and host functions for 60+ pax, Summerplace Farm Stay is the ideal getaway.

October 16, 2020 My Cycling Lifestyle Ep 4: Interview with Tracey Reynolds from Life Behind Bra’s
After a quick morning ride around Hobby Park in Krugersdorp (near Joburg, South Africa) we recorded the episode at Tracey’s home.
We chat about different aspects of women’s cycling including gadgets and a look into Tracey’s own riding lifestyle, we covered the amazing ladies group “Life Behind Bra’s” (with their unique and eye-catching shirts) and mentioned safety in Joburg and what Hobby Park has to offer.
Tracey Reynolds is a beautiful person to chat with and I loved recording this interview with her.
