Robbie Maddison has quite the story. Born and raised in south Sydney, Australia and has become a household name across the globe by raising the bar in what a person can do on a motorcycle. From FMX, and certain passion projects like jumping a football field, towers in Vegas and even riding a wave on his KTM 450. All of these amazing feats can come with a price. Many injuries, time away from family and lots of failure. On this episode Robbie talks about his own depression and how he wants to help educate the community on depression and mental health. I personally want to Thank Rob for his transparency and honesty to help others.

I have spent many years riding chromoly chassis from the KTM group, but today was my first ride on the 2021 Gas Gas mc450f. In this Podcast I will go into depth of my impression and thoughts of the all new model.

In episode #19 I sit down with Maxima Racing Oil's Trevor Reis after a great Mountain Bike ride on our Intense Cycles. Trevor was a Loretta Lynn's champion on a 50 at 9 years old and the future was looking bright when a string of injuries at age 14 prompted him to stop racing. He returned to a traditional school and was a normal kid working, playing team sports and enjoying life until he got the bug again and made a return to racing on his own terms. He was a consistent Main Event guy in the lites class before a practice track incident ended his career in Supercross. With all those years racing behind him Trevor has a wealth of knowledge on and off the track so I suggest you take notes.

The first Supercross of the year has came and gone, so I want to start something off this season with more then just Tweets and IG commentating. I will give you my opinion to what I see from the races I choose to engage in.  This is episode is all about round 1 of the Monster Energy Supercross in Houston, Texas. It was one for the books and I will break down both classes to what I saw from the living room of my home.

Paul Perebijnos has become a motocross industry leader by dedicating his life to being the best at what ever he sets his mind to, Paul was a professional racer for a few years while going to college, and worked his way from the early days of Butler Brothers racing, to a championship winning mechanic Pro Circuit , as a racer he is a Loretta Lynn's Champion, and is now a brand manager at Renthal USA. Paul has a wealth of knowledge from all of these experiences and I dive into those years to see how his story has been written so far.

In episode #016 of My Two Wheel Life I was able to dive into the very up and down career of Ryan Morais. Ryan faced more diversity in his 10+ year career as a full time professional Supercross and Motocross that would make the strongest athlete want to give up. In 2012 Ryan faced not only a career ending crash it nearly ended his life. Ryan didn't just bounce back from that he came back as a race winning team manager. In 2021 Ryan is the Red Bull KTM race team coordinator and test rider, and also assists in production testing. This is a must listen for those who are facing diversity or want to better there career when facing hard times.

In episode #015 of The My Two Wheel Life Podcast we go over so many great things that I've go to do since episode 14. Vet World Champs at Glen Helen, The Tevin Tapia charity Ride, The Kurt Caselli Foundation, Dad Life and what is in store for you at The Pinnacle Nutrition Group for 2021. I apologize for being slack on the Podcast once, but I can promise you I will do a better job at getting more content for everyone in 2021. Until then enjoy this Episode of My Two Wheel Life with my Co-Host Chad Tempo.

It has been a wild couple of months. It started off with Enduro and XC Mtb racing in Big Bear, straight into the Swapmoto Live 2021 450 shootout, Mini Major with my son Mason racing the Stacyc event and his first ever 65 race, 2021 Kawasaki 250f release, and the 250 two stroke world championships at Glen Helen racing again. I'm really blessed to be able to do what I love with my family but sometimes you have to let your body rebuild itself. Well I'm taking a break now and it's time re-charge the batteries, but until then enjoy a podcast with me and my partner Chad Tempo catching up on all things two wheels.

There are a lot of people who want to make a living in America in the motorcycle industry, but there are not that many who are willing sacrifice it all and move across the world to chase their dreams. David O'connor is one of those guy's who rolled the dice moving away from his home country in Ireland to chase his dreams. David has a really great story starting from a vacation to California from his home country in Ireland to riding local tracks and watching Supercross that turned into a career most mechanics would dream of. We also dive into Loretta Lynn's 2 and what our take is on the outdoor Motocross series after Loretta Lynn's #2

In episode #012 I got KTM R&D Sr. technician Scott Youngstrand who is also my brother on the podcast. We talk about Scott's life changing spinal chord injury, our family relationship racing and most importantly the all new KTM 450 before we done into the last two weeks at Loretta Lynn's. This was a fun one and I hope I can get Scott over once a week for bench racing and technical info from what he's seeing daily at the track or in this workshop at KTM. Enjoy folks this was fun for me. Mike Sleeter

I wanted to share with you my latest podcast that I did today #011. I have had a lot going on trying to get The Pinnacle Nutrition Group latest hydration finished and out to the public.

In this episode we give you an update with where we are in the state of buisness with The Pinnacle Nutrition Group. Re-cap my trip I made to Utah "The State of Sport" last week and what it was like being able to ride mtb with some heavy hitters on the mtb in Deer Valley and Park City . My Partner in crime at The Pinnacle Nutrition Group Chad Tempo and I dive deep into what we saw the last couple rounds of Supercross and what we see happening in the last round of Supercross this Sunday.

I've been friends with Blake and his family for a long time and I have to say it was a pleasure to stop by his house in St. George Utah to catch up with him. We got to do some bench racing, but most of all I wanted him to tell his story. It really is something special, being able to hear how he started racing and the path he took is inspiring. Everything was on the right track after he stepped away from racing becoming one of the best trainers in the Motocross industry, winning triathlons and bike races, then taking Chase Sexton and Ken Roczen to championships when one mistake play riding with Ken on a Supercross track changed it all. This crash lead him to become paralyzed from the waist down! With so much uncertainty of how he would adapt to his new normal, listen in to hear how Blake is training hard to live his best life doing what he loves so much.

I've known Victor for almost 20 years and he has been very instrumental in my cycling and Mtb journey. He is a 8 time world and national Jet ski champion, 3 time USA cycling Cat 1 national champion, USA cycling Cyclocross champion a husband and a Dad of two very talented girls. On this series we talk about the Over the Hump Mtb race series each week, but in this episode we will talk with Matt and Victor how Victor saw a need for weeknight Mtb racing in San Diego County after racing the OTH race series in it's very first year. We had a great time talking crap on this episode so I hope you enjoy as much as I did.

Founder of OTH Matt Wenger and myself dive head first into the guest racer series with Shawn Viola. Shawn has two boys who race the week night Mtb series each and every week while Mom supports the boys. We get some tips on how to manage two boys racing with expectation and drive and what Shawn has done to be better on a bike the last 3 years while managing a business and family.
