I'm stoked to be able to help Simon to spread the message about his attempt at an Everesting challenge. He's going to be ascending 8,849m in one day through the Queenstown bike park. He's not only doing it for himself, he will be raising money for the Making Trax charity founded by Jezza Williams.
We talk a little bit about Si, and how he got into MTB, working in the bike industry with the current stock shortages, what is the Making Trax charity all about and what motivated him to take on the Everest challenge.
