Today I’m joined by mountain bike racer and fellow podcaster, Dean Lucas. Dean has been on the World Cup scene for 10 years now and we sat down to chat about his experiences. We talk about Dean’s route into world cup racing and his quick rise to the top spots. Hear about some of his podium results and what he feels drove those. We also chat about concussion, mental health and plenty more. Dean is a thoughtful guy who offers some interesting insight into himself and the sport. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Dean Lucas.
You can follow Dean on Instagram @deanos_mykonos and The Offtrack Experience @the.offtrack.experience.
Supporting Partners
We Are One Composites
I’ve been using WeAreOne wheels for over 4 years now and I’m a massive fan. I’m currently running a Faction 29er up front and a Union 27.5 in the rear and I love them. I feel like they strike a lovely balance of being precise but not so stiff that they punish you for being a millimetre offline. The quality and finish of the product is also second to none.
As a downtime listener, you can get 10% off any Revolution wheelsets and all rim-only products from WeAreOne until 30th September 2022. All you need to do is to use the code ‘Downtimewheeling2022’ at the checkout over on weareonecomposites.com.
