Podcasts about Mountain biking

In this episode, Casey Brown shares her journey from a young freerider in New Zealand to a trailblazer in women's mountain biking. We explore her experiences with Rampage, the creation of Dark Horse, and her vision for the future of women in freeride mountain biking.

Virginia gilt als „Geburtsort Amerikas“ und steht damit zum 250. Jahrestag der Unabhängigkeitserklärung der USA besonders im Rampenlicht. Doch in dem Bundesstaat an der Ostküste kann man jederzeit auf eine spannende Zeitreise gehen, schwärmt Maria Greiner: Im historischen Dreieck von Jamestown, Yorktown und Colonial Williamsburg, dem größten Freilichtmuseum der Welt, wird Geschichte lebendig, sagt die Virginia-Expertin im Gespräch mit Meine-Reise-USA-Moderator Holger Jacobs. Die meisten US-Präsidenten, nämlich acht, stammten aus Virginia, die Landsitze von zweien lassen sich erkunden: Mount Vernon von George Washington, der seinen eigenen Whiskey brannte, und Monticello von Thomas Jefferson, der sich wiederum im Weinbau versuchte. Heute gibt es fast 400 Weingüter – beileibe nicht die einzige kulinarische Überraschung: Besucher können in Virginia Beach ihre eigenen Austern ernten, überall gibt es frische Erzeugnisse aus der Region, also „Farm to Table“, zu genießen, oder man speist im einzigen Drei-Sterne-Restaurant der Hauptstadtregion. Bemerkenswert vielfältig ist auch das Outdoor-Angebot – von Wandern und Mountainbiking im Shenandoah National Park und in den Blue Ridge Mountains bis zu Stand-up Paddling und Kajaktouren zu den Delfinen an der Küste. Und mitten in der lebhaften Hauptstadt Richmond mit ihren zahllosen bunten Wandmalereien kann man auf Wildwassertour gehen! Nicht der einzige Geheimtipp von Maria Greiner: Erdnusssuppe probieren, den Funkverkehr eines Großflughafens mithören, die Wiege der Country-Musik besuchen, mit dem Heißluftballon abheben – dies und vieles mehr verrät die Virginia-Kennerin in der jüngsten Folge von Meine Reise USA.

Back in 1986, two Englishmen in their early twenties flew to Delhi with brand new mountain bikes and a paper map, and set off to ride through the Himalaya. James Baile takes us back nearly 40 years to a trip that saw him carrying his bike over three high mountain passes, reaching Kalapattar at 5,545 metres as one of the first cyclists ever to do it, and crossing into India solo after his riding partner's frame gave out.Highlights from the episode:Two 20 year olds, no maps of their own making, no local language, and a bike that had barely existed as a category three years earlierTwo weeks of carrying rather than riding, before the terrain eased into Namche BazaarReaching Kalapattar at 5,545 metres, among the earliest cyclists to have done itThe transition from cycling with a friend to riding solo across northern IndiaThe hospitality of strangers shown throughout the journeyFive days in McLeodganj giving Tibetan kids bike rides outside the Green HotelFollow along with James' future adventures via his instagram - @JamesB.AdventuresThis episode originally first aired on Feb 01 2025.  Check out Old Man Mountain for the perfect way to carry gear on your bike.

The big 32-inch wheels are coming. They've already rolled through multi-stage mountain bike races, XC World Cups, gravel competitions and DH runs. For some, they provoke eye-rolls as the bike industry pursues yet another standard whether you want it or not. But you'll see more of them soon. Geoff Kabush, mountain bike legend, underbiking advocate and long-time gear-head, has seen all this before. He started mountain biking on 26-inch wheels and experienced the rise (and growing pains) of 29ers. With 32s, he's already been experimenting. In May 2025, he rode a custom-built hardtail with 32”-wheels near Fox's office in North Carolina to explore bike geometry on the big hoops. He's also worked with Sam Whittingham of Naked Bicycles based on B.C.'s Quadra Island, where Whittingham made a 32-inch-wheel gravel bike that Kabush is riding. This episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast features a look at the nuances of the new wheel size. Kabush talks about how geometry is evolving. “Butt clearance,” the room a rider's rear end needs when their weight is back over the rear wheel, comes up. He also reveals how he can feel a bit of guilt when pushing test equipment to failure, especially with an emerging technology in which spares are in short supply. And Kabush has practical tire tips, too. Have a listen.

For Episode 212, we've got Udo Blenkhorn and Pat Pero out of Quebec Canada. Both Pat and Udo are heavily involved with volunteer trail building, so much so that they decided to create a nonprofit organization called Dig !t for the purpose of helping other volunteer trail-building organizations. Dig !t serves many purposes for both individuals and trail organizations, with the central theme of organizing volunteer trail-building efforts. The latest addition to the Dig !t platform is a mobile app, which made its debut a couple of weeks ago on International Trail Day. Ultimately, Dig !t was created with the goal of streamlining community trail building so you can spend more time digging and less time doing admin work.   Topics Include: The Pat backstory and mountain biking The Udo backstory and mountain biking How Pat and Udo got involved with volunteer trail building The Contagious Rock Creating Dig !t How mistakes led to efficiencies and getting it right The Trail Fairies How to find digs that are going on virtually everywhere Professionals and volunteers working together to create trails Different tiers of teammates, leaders, and chapter operators that are part of Dig !t How all of this consolidates and streamlines tracking of actions across the platform Operational efficiencies so you can spend more time working on trails and making the invisible visible The sense of belonging that Dig !t provides How people are assigned roles and levels of training to become a leader within Dig !t Dig !t customization at the chapter level (waivers, for example) Dig 24 – a 24-hour volunteer trail-building event What Udo looks for in a trail community What Pat looks for in a trail community Closing comments Trail EAffect Show Links: Dig !t: https://digittrailbuilders.org/   Show Support By: KETL Mtn Apparel Affiliate Link: https://ketlmtn.com/josh Trail One Components: https://trailone.bike/josh Smith's Bike Shop – 130 Years of Excellence: www.smithsbikes.com Trail EAffect Podcast Website: www.traileaffectpodcast.com   Contact Josh at evolutiontrails@gmail.com This Podcast has been edited and produced by Evolution Trail Services

Summer is in full swing, and anglers across Colorado are looking for opportunities to set a hook into the mouth of a fish across the state's incredible array of lakes, rivers and small streams. But with the state facing a historic drought, there is a lot for anglers to keep in mind.In this episode of the Colorado Outdoors podcast, we sit down with CPW Assistant Director Matt Nicholl, who oversees the Aquatic Wildlife Branch, as well as Josh Nehring, CPW's Deputy Assistant Director of the Aquatic Branch, to talk about all matters fishing in Colorado for 2026. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor released on June 4, 2026, all 64 counties in Colorado are currently experiencing at least Abnormally Dry conditions, while nearly 93% of the state is in Moderate to Exceptional Drought. Following the lowest snowpack accumulation season on record, May 1 streamflow forecasts projected runoff ranging from only 21% to 37% of median across Colorado river basins. Additionally, this water year (October 2025 - Present) has been the warmest on record in Colorado, contributing to early snowmelt, extremely low river flows, diminished soil moisture conditions and elevated wildfire risk statewide. This has an impact on anglers and may make many who hold a 2026 Colorado fishing license rethink areas they traditionally like to fish.Fishing in mornings or evenings when water temperatures are cooler will not only lead to better fish health but also more angler success. And not pressuring fisheries especially impacted by the drought will also benefit the long-term health of aquatic life.Hear our expert's tips on how to still have a great fishing season across Colorado despite the drought conditions and learn more about CPW's fisheries management in this new episode.Podcast hosted by Regional Public Information Officers John Livingston and Kara Van Hoose.

In this episode of the podcast, CPW Digital Media Specialist Forrest Czarnecki returns as a guest host to bring listeners into the field for a CPW mentored turkey hunt near Pagosa Springs.Czarnecki pairs up with CPW volunteer Bob Blauert and his novice hunter to give listeners a behind-the-scenes look at the turkey hunting seminar and a real hunt from the opening morning of the 2026 spring turkey season.Listen along as we set out before the sun rises and call in gobblers while Blauert works with his young hunter on getting into shooting position before eventually pulling the trigger.Through the experience, learn why people become so passionate about turkey hunting and why it has become an obsession for Blauert, who is already looking forward to the next mentored spring turkey hunt in 2027.As Blauert says, “This weekend is sacred.”

Which pedals actually improve your mountain biking skills faster: flat pedals or clipless (clip-in) pedals? In this episode we break down the science behind flat pedals vs. clipless pedals, not from a tribal “this is better” perspective, but through the lens of neuroscience, motor learning and coordination training.If you want to develop better long-term coordination, balance, timing, pressure control and technical understanding of the bike, this episode is for you. In this episode, we explore:- why coordination matters more than most riders think- how sensory feedback through your feet affects riding- how fear and tension influence learning- how skills transfer from flats to clipless ridingThis episode is especially helpful if you:struggle with confidence on technical trailsfeel tense or inconsistent while ridingwant to improve cornering, jumps, drops or manualsplateau despite practicing a lotor simply want to become a smoother, safer and more controlled riderMentioned in this Episode

Can you train mental durability? “Yes, 100 per cent,” says Haley Smith. The rider knows her stuff. She's an Olympian who competed in cross country mountain biking. She's a Commonwealth Games medallist and a two-time national  marathon mountain bike champion. Smith won the first Life Time Grand Prix series. Recently, she was fifth at the Traka 360 gravel race in Spain. While Smith is a top-level rider, she's also a PhD student in sports psychology. In her studies, cycling is front and centre. One of her papers even examined the spirit of gravel. In the interview, Smith discusses racing, her academic work, as well as mental strategies that can help you to be a better rider. This season, Smith is on tour. Not a multi-stage event in this case, but a speaking tour that also includes group rides. It's all part of her Competere project. Competere is aimed at helping more girls and women grow into passionate cyclists. Here's the schedule: May 14-15: Le Club, Montreal, chat and ride on the 15th May 21: Toronto, Etape 22, chat only June 18: Vancouver, Bici, chat only July 2-3: Cyclesmith, Halifax, chat and ride on the 3rd Oct. 17: Big Sugar Gravel, chat

Rachel Hadfield is one of the talented creatives behind some of mountain biking's most iconic visual storytelling.Based in New Zealand, Rachel has spent the past several years capturing the energy, chaos, and behind-the-scenes moments of events like Crankworx, the New Zealand National Series, and some of the sport's biggest athlete projects. Through her company, Depth of Field Media, she's built a name for herself as a photographer who understands that the best images tell a story long after the race tape comes down.In this episode, Rachel joins us to talk about how she broke into mountain bike photography, what really goes into covering elite events, the realities of working in media, and what exciting projects she has coming up next.This is a conversation about more than cameras—it's about hustle, timing, creativity, and carving out a career in a competitive industry.Follow Rachel + Depth of Field Media:Rachel Website: https://www.rachelhadfield.com/Depth of Field Media: https://depthoffield.co.nz/ Rachel Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rach.hadfield/Depth of Field Media Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/depthoffieldnz?igsh=ZTI4dW5vZXdycndwFollow Women's MTB Network:Website: https://www.womensmtbnetwork.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/womensmtbnetworkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WomensMTBNetwork

You're out on your MTB and mess up. 

There is a difference between knowing the gospel and being moved by it. In this conversation with Pastor Francis Chan, that difference becomes hard to miss. What starts as a moment of raw honesty as Francis watches Candace respond to the gospel with tears opens into something much bigger: what it actually means to stay inside the love of God, not just visit it. Francis shares the mountain biking story from his new book (written with his daughter Mercy) that says everything about where we fix our eyes and what happens when we don't. They talk about the distinction between conviction from the Holy Spirit and condemnation from the enemy, why those two things feel similar but lead in completely different directions, and what it looks like to keep coming back to the gospel like it's the first time you've heard it. A listener named Candice (with an i) asks about scripture for recurring struggles, and Francis answers with the kind of honesty that actually helps. And Candace shares a season of her own life when she wanted God at arm's length and knew exactly why. The awkward line breaks from what looks like a copy-paste from a PDF or narrow text box are all cleaned up!

Deep into Colorado's pheasant season, Corners for Conservation properties provide healthy winter habitat and welcome the next generation of hunters.Wading through a tangle of chest-high grasses on a cold morning. Pheasants flushing underfoot, cackling on the wing as they break for the horizon. Gold and pink light waxing across the sky at sunrise. Scanning the little green county road signs, looking for just the right number. Big smiles, and plenty of miles. In this episode of the Colorado Outdoors podcast, we take the show on the road. We visit some of our Corners for Conservation properties on the Eastern Plains in hopes of finding winter time roosters, and learning a thing or two along the way. From pollinator habitat and songbird stopovers to prime cold season country for Colorado's wild pheasants, Corners for Conservation fields are full of benefits (all year long). In the winter, they also serve as a place of exploration and learning for novice hunters, thanks to Pepper Canterbury and her hunter outreach program. Listen along as we chase birds, explore the prairie and soak up the rewards of a successful hunt.

Nicole Bradbury's World Cup short track race came down to the wire. Following terrible opening laps—where she dropped to the back of the field and then was taken down by a crash—the Hamilton rider got up to the front of the race. Not only had that event in Val di Sole this past June been a struggle, but the years leading up to that race were marked by setback after setback. A few times, she thought she would quit racing cross country. As the race in Italy went on, Bradbury realized a top-15 place would be possible. Then, a top-10 came into view. “Then, it was like the last lap of the World Cup, and I was in fourth. This is so sick. The whole time I was just panicking. I was like, I got to hold this top-five,” she said. Bradbury was in second position into the final corner. “I was behind Katharina Sadnik and I was, like, this is insane,” Bradbury said. “I thought I have to sprint because otherwise it's position one or two, and I don't want to be second. I started sprinting really, really hard. I still didn't think I was going to pass her. When I was passing her, I was, like, this is stupid. I can't believe it.” Not only was Bradbury surprised by the win, she was totally unprepared. She had no change of kit for the podium, so another racer hosed Bradbury down in the bike-wash area. The winner also needed some coaching on how to open a champagne bottle. The rest of Bradbury's 2025 season went pretty well. The World Cup in Lake Placid helped her to build more confidence. In the fall, she returned to Brevard College in North Carolina for her final year of school and collegiate racing. She won the U.S. Omnium Championship. Then, with the new year, it seemed the momentum of the previous one was faltering. Logistical and health issues hindered her preparation for the 2026 season, her first as an elite rider. While she has the support of Victoria-based Blue Bridge Racing, Bradbury is still operating like a privateer racer. Funds are tight. In this episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast, Bradbury goes into detail about her career to date, and the perspective she has on her uncertain future. Also, she discusses her art. Her recent exhibition of oil and gouache paintings has a strong connection with her cross country career.

Most riders think skills training is about technique. But what if it's actually one of the most powerful tools to reduce fear, improve focus, and build real confidence — on and off the bike?In this episode, I break down 5 mental benefits of mountain bike skills training that most riders completely overlook.We're talking about:why fear on the bike is a prediction problem, not a personality flawhow structured practice creates real motivation (instead of frustration)how skills training improves focus and mental clarityhow riding can become a powerful tool for stress regulationand how building skills builds self-trust that transfers into lifeThis episode is especially relevant for riders over 35 who feel stuck, hesitant, or like progress isn't sticking — despite putting in time on the bike. Because the problem usually isn't effort. It's the lack of a system.

Lottie Brinks is back on the Everyday Ultra Podcast, and this one goes way deeper than just race results.In this episode, Lottie shares how mountain biking has become a huge part of her life — not as a way to build fitness, but as a way to sharpen her mind, improve her confidence, and help her show up better in running and in life. We dive into the connection between fear and performance, how learning high-risk skills can translate to racing more freely, and why doing something purely for joy can actually make you a better ultrarunner.This is a powerful conversation about growth, presence, confidence, and the mental side of performing at a high level.In this episode, we talk about:Why mountain biking has become such a powerful complement to Lottie's runningHow practicing fear in one sport can build confidence in anotherThe surprising connection between line choice on the bike and downhill runningWhy doing something for joy and mental stimulation can actually help performanceHow to stay present and avoid overthinking before big racesWhat Lottie has learned about risk, confidence, and trusting herself as an athleteSHOW LINKS:Register for our race, The Desert Peak Ultra 100K + 50K at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠desertpeakultra.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Want to work with me to crush your next ultramarathon in our group coaching program?

To kick off the first episode of Season 3, host John Livingston sits down with CPW Wildlife Damage Specialist Max Morton, who assisted the agency in standing up the range rider program in 2025.Range riders are eyes and ears on the landscape, collecting important information for livestock producers, wildlife managers, and biologists alike. In addition to providing human presence that can deter wolf conflict, riders collect data that allows CPW and CDA to determine best approaches for addressing conflict through adaptive, coordinated plans.CPW hired 11 range riders to assist in efforts to minimize wolf depredation of livestock on range in 2025. CPW opened the application process to as many as 24 range riders for the 2026 season.Morton, who discusses his past experience as a range rider in Arizona and New Mexico, details what range riding is, how it is most effective and why it was important for CPW to implement the program.

In 2025, Squamish's Elly Hoskin racked up a slew of successes: two Enduro World Cup wins, a victory at Crankworx Whistler, the world championship gold, as well as the national enduro title. Not bad for a rider in her first year as an elite rider who manages her own program, calling herself a pro privateer. In this episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast, Elly Hoskin looks back at her breakout 2025 season and ahead to new goals in 2026. She also discusses racing here at home compared with abroad, wrenching on her own bike, race prep and strategies, the ever-evolving health of enduro (of which she sees hope and optimism) and why she sometimes doesn't know whether to say “beanie” or “tuque.” That feature interview starts at 20:00. Also in this episode, a preview of Milan-San Remo and San Remo Donne, the first Monuments of the road cycling season. MS Bike has lent its support to this episode. The organization is running 11 rides across the country this year. These are top-notch, fully supported events. The first ones are in June in Alberta. The last one is Waskesiu, Sask. There are also rides in British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, and Nova Scotia. No matter which one you choose, there's still plenty of time to prepare. If you need some training tips, there are two-month and three-month plans for you on the Canadian Cycling Magazine website. Remember, through an MS Bike event, you raise funds, which go to help MS research and services. Head to msbike.ca. Register, and then start training and fundraising.

Mountain biking can rewire your brain for deep confidence and self-trust. But if you're not careful, it can also train self-doubt, fear, and destructive thought patterns. In this episode, I break down the neuroscience behind both. You'll learn how real confidence is built through motor learning, awareness, and measurable progress — and why many riders unknowingly train the opposite of what they want. I explain how skills training, when done intentionally, becomes a powerful tool to overcome limiting habits and beliefs — based on how the brain actually works.This isn't motivation fluff. It's brain science applied to the trail.Because MTB is more than sport. If used consciously, it becomes a laboratory for rewiring belief systems.You'll also hear the story of Samantha, a rider who went from constant self-doubt to grounded confidence — through understanding cause and effect, and how you can, too! You'll learn:- Why confidence is a trained neural pattern (not a character trait)- How to build confidence circuits in your brain- Why awareness is the true foundation of self-confidence and what the German word for confidence (Selbstbewusstsein) has to do with it- How the Notice → Accept → Adjust → Repeat loop builds self-trust- Why dopamine from small wins is more powerful than big breakthroughs- Why negative self-talk blocks learning- Why even your posture and body tension directly influence confidence- How familiarity — not difficulty — determines fear- Why safe practice environments accelerate growth- How skills training on the bike transfers into real-life self-beliefLinks mentioned in the episode: Join my once a year LIVE COHORT starting in April: https://roxybike.podia.com/skill-up-2026-your-all-in-one-mtb-skills-programPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/rideandinspireBuy me a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/roxyinspiresWork with me with my remote coaching: https://www.roxybike-coaching.comSign up for my FREE newsletter with tips directly to your inbox and get a FREE BALANCE COURSE to start rewiring right on your doorstep: https://roxybike.podia.com/sign-me-up Book MentionedWay of the Peaceful Warrior – Dan Millman

Travis and Henry join Rebecca and Shannon to talk about how they've literally forged new trails for mountain biking in Great Falls.

In this episode of The Ride Companion, mountain bike legend Martyn Ashton joins us for one of our most honest, funny and important conversations yet. We talk about Martyn's latest project, Rideable Now and why he believes mountain bikers need to show up for mountain biking.

Why do MTB skills feel amazing right after a clinic… and then “disappear”? In this episode, I break down what's really happening inside your brain (neuroscience-based, no fluff, in simple terms) when you learn mountain bike skills:Why your brain deletes new MTB skills (unless you do this)The real reason skills fade: you're stuck in Stage 1 of neuroplasticity Why confidence isn't magic, it's actually something called myelination (and it's simple to build!)Why fear blocks learning: the amygdala rule every MTB rider (and MTB skills coach) should knowYou'll learn how to move from temporary performance to trail-proof skill by understanding the 3 stages of neuroplasticity and how to train in a way that actually sticks.Real progress isn't about talent or bravery. It's about wiring the skill deep enough that it shows up when it matters. In this episode you'll find out how to do that! 

Radfahren ist mehr als nur Fortbewegung – es ist Entdeckung, Genuss und manchmal auch eine kleine Reise zu sich selbst. In dieser Podcastfolge nimmt uns Armin Herb mit auf genau solche Reisen: auf einige der schönsten und legendärsten Radtouren in Deutschland und Österreich. Im Mittelpunkt der Folge stehen bekannte und weniger bekannte Routen: von der Via Claudia Augusta als sanfte Alpenüberquerung über beeindruckende Abschnitte rund um Garmisch-Partenkirchen bis hin zu echten Klassikern wie dem Tauernradweg. Armin teilt seine persönlichen Eindrücke, erklärt, warum manche Strecken in einer bestimmten Richtung besonders reizvoll sind und weshalb Genuss und Landschaft für ihn immer wichtiger sind als sportliche Höchstleistungen.

The path to becoming a master woodworker doesn't always start in a workshop. Sometimes it begins on a mountain bike trail during the off-season. In this episode of the Woodpreneur Podcast, host Jennifer Alger welcomes Simon Silver of Simon Silver Designs to explore his remarkable journey from mountain bike athlete to accomplished woodworker and sawmill operator. Simon shares how he discovered woodworking as a hobby during the off-season and how a pivotal class with a skilled mentor accelerated his learning and instilled a detail-oriented mindset that defines his work today. You'll hear about Simon's commitment to creating timeless furniture pieces from urban wood, storm trees, and reclaimed materials, and his sawmill business that sources local redwood logs to provide unique lumber for custom projects. Simon discusses the balance between commissioned work and personal creative projects, the evolution of his business from small pieces to large-scale installations, and the increasing complexity and reward of challenging custom woodworking. This conversation dives into the realities of running a custom woodworking business, including the challenges of job site work, the importance of educating clients about wood movement and natural material characteristics, and the critical skill of learning to say no to projects that don't align with your vision or values. Simon also reflects on maintaining passion for the craft when business demands threaten to overshadow creative fulfillment, and his plans to create personal pieces that reignite his love for woodworking. Whether you're a woodworker navigating the transition from hobby to business, interested in sustainable wood sourcing and urban lumber, or looking for insights on balancing commercial success with creative satisfaction, this episode offers honest wisdom from someone who's built a thriving woodworking business while staying true to his craft. Tune in to discover how perseverance, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn can transform a passion into a sustainable livelihood, and don't forget to follow the Woodpreneur Podcast for more inspiring stories from makers and craftspeople.

Enrico Guala is an entrepreneur and consultant in the cycling industry, a key figure in the development of Finale Ligure as a mountain biking destination, and a co-creator of the Enduro World Series.In this Moment, he shares his perspective on the potential risks posed by the increasing power of electric-assist mountain bike motors.This clip was translated using AI.

Electric mountain bikes. Either you love ‘em, or think they're wack. Granted, the latter opinion has been losing steam as more brands release good e-bikes, and more riders toss a leg over one. They're the talk of our industry and are one of the few, if not the only, segments of bikes experiencing significant change year after year.In this show, Vital's own Jason Schroeder and Shawn Spomer, along with industry veteran Lars Sternberg, and Founder/Operator of Crestline Bikes, Troydon Murison, sift through the current landscape of e-bikes and discuss what the future might hold. The conversation also kicks off with a rad (almost hour-long) dive into how Crestline Bikes became a thing and the challenges posed by making bikes overseas.Contents00:00 "My Watch Said I Was Dead" - Lars Sternberg08:54 What's In and What's Out: Weekly Highlights21:17 The Founding of Crestline Bikes and how they were made59:02 Transitioning to DJI Motors01:35:08 Consumer Behavior and E-Bike Sales01:53:20 Understanding Power and Performance in E-Bikes02:10:13 The Balance Between Analog and E-Bikes02:20:43 Regulations and Safety Concerns in E-Biking

We dive into what's actually happening in peri- and postmenopause (hormonally, neurologically, and physically) and how those changes show up on the bike. From fear on technical trails, to fatigue, difficulties concentrating, to the “hit by a truck” recovery days… none of this is random. This episode is science-based and NOT only for women
