Just Ride

What happens when you realise the thing that has given you purpose and identity in life is no longer making you happy? That was a question that slopestyle icon Brett Rheeder had to contend with in 2019, as he first started to wonder about retiring from competition. Three years later he roared back to win Red Bull Rampage, an iconic freeride mountain biking competition held in the Utah desert, for the second time with a whole new mindset – and then finally stepped away from competing for good.Brett is regarded as one of the greatest slopestyle riders in mountain biking, a discipline where riders fly through the air, spinning their bikes and bodies in multiple directions with the aim of accumulating the highest points for their trick combinations in each run.Speaking to Rob and Eliot in Whistler at Crankworx – a multi-stop series of mountain bike festivals which brings together the best mountain bikers to compete in elite level competitions – Brett’s honesty and openness about the personal journey he’s been on over the past few years is fascinating… and lots of fun.From his eye-opening first competitions on the pro scene – including a spot of concussion mixed with altitude sickness – to becoming arguably the greatest slopestyle rider of all time, Brett’s been on one hell of a journey.Enjoying Just Ride?

On the eve of the World Championships in Glasgow, Rob & Eliot are joined by UK rider Evie Richards – one of the most positive, inspirational, and infectious characters on the circuit. Evie has always been ambitious. She dreamt of competing at the Olympics as a child, initially as a hockey player, but after discovering a love for cycling in 2013, she made a switch to racing bikes and achieved her dream by representing Team GB in Tokyo. She is one of Britain’s most promising cross-country and cyclo-cross stars as well as a World Champion after her 2021 victory at the UCI MTB XCO World Championships. But it hasn’t always been easy. In this episode of Just Ride, Evie talks openly and honestly about the physical and mental struggles she went through while chasing her dream and how, after working with coaches and sports psychologists, she has found a work/life balance that means she can focus on what really matters. We could all do with a little more Evie in our lives! We’ve all got our origin stories - get in touch with @robwarner970 & @eliotjackson or podcast@redbull.com with your tales of how you got into bikes.

With the world’s most famous race well underway, Rob and Eliot are joined by one of the most successful domestiques in modern cycling history, Luke Rowe, to break down everything you need to know about the Tour de France. The Ineos Grenadiers rider has raced in the Tour eight times and been part of the winning team on five occasions. He has also been disqualified and even finished last! Here Luke talks in detail about the different roles each rider takes up in a team, the tactics (and bad behaviour) to look out for in the peloton and the mind-games at play as riders hope to gain an advantage in one of the most physically and mentally challenging courses out there. He talks about riding with best friend and team-mate, Welsh cycling icon Geraint Thomas, and how the bond of friendship might be the most important. You can check out Luke and Geraint’s podcast, Watts Occurring, here on Spotify, Apple or wherever you get your podcasts! New episodes are released every other Tuesday.
