Ric McLaughlin – Telling Tales

September 24, 2019

So this week on the podcast I’m sitting down with Ric McLaughlin. If you’ve watched the coverage of the Downhill world cup, or the EWS then you’ll have seen Ric at work, bringing us trackside insight from the world’s top riders. We sat down to find out more about his career, how he ended up in his current role, and what it takes to bring us the awesome coverage that we get from world cups and EWS rounds. Ric’s passion for the sport is clear, so sit back and have a listen to what he has to say.

This episode of the podcast is supported by Precision Hydration. Hydration is an often overlooked element of performance, not just in racing, but in riding and life in general. We all sweat at different rates, and lose different amounts of sodium in that sweat, so it’s not a ‘one size fits all’ fix. Precision Hydration realise that, and are here to help you optimise your personal hydration. Head to here to complete the questionnaire and get your own hydration plan specific to your needs.
