Today's Just Ride is designed to be watched, not just listened to. If you are listening to this via an audio platform, we'd recommend heading to Spotify or YouTube to watch! After years of neglecting his fitness, Rob Warner accepts an audacious challenge from Eliot to complete the infamous Mont Ventoux before the 2025 Tour de France arrives there. After a failed attempt earlier in the year, and Eliot bringing in cycling experts to support him, Rob feels the pressure to finally complete the challenge! Words of encouragement from Tom Pidcock, Finn Iles, Jolanda Neff and Geraint Thomas all prove valuable as he battles the heat and steepness on road cycling's most infamous climb. Will he make it?

Rob and Eliot are joined by one of the most enduring names in downhill mountain biking today — Bernard Kerr. With over a decade of elite competition behind him, Bernard is still pushing the limits of downhill, racing against a new wave of younger, hungrier riders — and as you'll hear, he’s not holding anything back. The guys met up for this chat before Bernard's brutal crash while he was prepping for the first World Cup of the year, and that news hit even harder than usual considering how pumped Bernard was for this season. We know he'll be back. This conversation goes deep. Bernard opens up about the toll that crashing has taken on his body and mindset, and what it really feels like to pick yourself up again when you’re no longer the youngest guy on the start list. He reflects on how age has changed his approach to risk, racing, and recovery — and why, even now, he’s still finding ways to stay fast, focused, and fired up. The episode also tackles Red Bull Hardline, a race Bernard has become synonymous with. He shares his honest thoughts on how the event has evolved and the growing unease among riders over how information was shared — or not shared! — when it came to new lines in Tasmania this year. All we've got to say is... bring on Wales. Subscribe, leave a comment, and let us know what you think about what Bernard had to say — and we'll be back very soon.

Just one day after crossing the finish line in Rome to complete the 2025 Giro d’Italia, Tom Pidcock sat down with us in Salzburg for an honest, revealing conversation about the pressures, decisions, and ambitions that shape life at the very top of the sport. From the chaos of a three-week Grand Tour to the calm of a podcast studio, this episode captures a rare moment of reflection from one of the most versatile and compelling riders in cycling today. We delve into Tom’s decision to leave Ineos Grenadiers and join Q36.5 - a move that made headlines across the road cycling world. The conversation also dives deep into his Olympic journey, with Tom reflecting on the incredible achievement of winning back-to-back gold medals in mountain biking and what it would take to return for a third shot at LA 2028. We also unpack THAT move at the 2024 Paris Games that secured him gold against French favourite, Victor Kortetsky. But this isn’t just about wins and podiums. We also explore Tom's love for MTB and the sacrifices that must be made to be competitive in every discipline. We dive into what it actually takes to ride general classification in a Grand Tour, the mental battle of staying focused for 21 days straight, the sacrifices required to chase time on the world’s biggest stages, and the emotional highs and lows that come with trying to hold it all together under immense pressure. Whether you're a fan of road racing, mountain biking, or simply fascinated by the psychology of elite athletes, this episode offers a rare look into the mindset of a rider who’s redefining what it means to be a modern cyclist.
