The Sharp End of Enduro – Jesse Melamed

April 10, 2018

Jesse Melamed joins us fresh off the plane from the first two rounds of the 2018 Enduro World Series. If you’ve been following the series then you know that these were two incredibly different and exciting races, from the deep dust and high speeds of Chile to the deep mud and rain in Colombia. We talk to Jesse about how they went, how he approached bike set up for the events, and also why he thinks Sam Hill was able to take the win at both. We also cover plenty of other stuff like what it’s like to grow up in Whistler, tips for riding in the mud, his first ever EWS victory in his home town, and much more… so give it a listen. You can now find us on Spotify, so if that’s an easier place for you to listen, the head over there and give us a follow
