We're a little worried about some of the things we're hearing about the bike industry right now. A combination of Covid, external factors and global economies seem to have supply and demand reeling! Martyn sat down with Doddy and Sandy for a hot take on the situation.

In this episode, Martyn Ashton chats with Nils from Rider Resilience about his story and how mountain biking can help combat adversity. Rider Resilience hopes that having a vast pool of inspirational content can help to foster or regain resilience and positivity in people, that it will serve to appreciate the good things in life and become an ever-growing impetus to once again get out and ride.

This week we are joined by Sandy Plenty from The Trailhead bicycle company. Sandy has worked in bike shops almost all of his life and has built one of the best bike shops in the UK with a great community focus. We find out how E-Bikes saved his shop, his thoughts on EMTBs Vs MTBs and why he sold one of the most iconic bikes of all time from his personal connection. 

The Ben 'Deakinator' Deakin story is one that is very different from the traditional way in which people become pro mountain bikers. From former Royal Marine Commando to MTB Professional Influencer in a matter of just a couple of years and a catchphrase that you just can't forget! #OiOi 

This week Martyn is joined by Jack Carthy, Jack is the 9X UCI Elite world champion and multiple UCI World Cup champion of competition bike trials. Jack is one of the most decorated MTBers, but hasn’t had the recognition of riders in other disciplines. What will he do if, or once he reaches his lifetime goal of a 10th world championship title?
