  • Episode 43 | Chris Doyle laid the blueprint as a professional BMX rider for 20 years

     Chris Doyle is without a doubt, one of the most legendary BMX riders on the planet - especially so in the trail world.

    Chris has had a career in BMX that has spanned two decades. I wanted to know what got him there, but also how he was able to move from professional BMXer, to finding a new career in real estate.

    Chris is one of my all-time favourite riders, so it was amazing to have the opportunity to speak with him on this and much more, including one of his fondest memories - ACT Jam.

  • Episode 37 | Ryan Lloyd is mentoring youth through bikes

    Ryan Lloyd is one of the best BMX riders I've ever seen, without question. Aside from going through a long 'career' as a sponsored, prominent Australian rider (that I had the pleasure of being team-mates with!), Ryan has gone on to create a charity, Lighthouse Youth Projects, with his mate and business partner Jamie Moore (formerly owner of BMX distributor Stowaway Distribution). We go into what got Ryan into riding, his influences, how I feel his belief in God affected his riding and much, much more.
