Thanks to Santa Cruz Bicycles, I took part in this year’s Stone King Rally. If you’ve been listening to our Downtime Goes Downhill series then you’ll know that Stone King didn’t quite go to plan and in this episode you can hear all about it. I’m joined by enduro racer Katy Winton, to quiz me on what went on. This is the deepest that I’ve ever dug physically and an insane rollercoaster of a week on a bike in incredible places with amazing people. I’ve also got some short interviews at the end of this episode with some of those amazing people that I met during the week. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Katy Winton asking me the questions.
