Show notes, links and details from every episode of the MTB Podcast
Riding in wet, slippery and muddy conditions is extremely tricky, and frankly, Steven and I aren't very good at it. So, we sat down with Geoff Kabush in his hometown of Squamish, BC after a very wet and rainy ride to learn what equipment changes and techniques help you ride better in the wet.
Interbike has brought the industry to our hometown, and Jeff Cayley of Worldwide Cyclery joins us for a casual discussion on overlooked details shuttling, why bike shops aren't dead and what we need to do, Park Tool's controversial law suit, the future of bike trade shows and festivals, why SRAM eTap Eagle has not been released yet, and the polarizing paint job of Steven's new Jekyll 29. Enjoy and share!
Steven is back with the new Jekyll 29, we talk about the best race we've seen in years, Yeti's new SB150 and SB130 bikes, and answer your questions on everything from protecting your frame to mixing brake pad and rotor brands. Tune in and share!
It's World Championships weekend, and after talking to some of the athletes, I realized the logistics of international competition are rarely understood by us average punters, so we called up Team USA's Keegan Swenson on the eve of World Championships to learn about the event, this year's XCO course and how Keegan is preparing for a World Champs PR. Enjoy!
This week's podcast features a conversation with Yeti Cycles' Geoff Kabush and Jonathan, taken from an episode of TrainerRoad's Ask a Cycling Coach Podcast.
The discussions covers everything from equipment and nutrition, to training and technique, plus one awesome story about the massive Chinese basketball legend Yao Ming and an Olympic pin.
Tune in and enjoy the nerdery!
Supporting a racer is more complex than you think, and despite a racer's best efforts, a bad crew can ruin an otherwise perfect race day.

What happens when a pro mountain biker becomes an event organizer? You get great races, but you also get a very knowledgable perspective on event organization. Steven and I are like most of you in that we don't understand event organization well enough, so we grilled Clint with our questions and came away wiser. Tune in and get smart!
Suspension tuning can be extremely complex, and changing your bike from mediocre to stellar can just be a few clicks away. Use this episode as your cheat sheet and get tuning!
Julien Absalon retires, Richie Rude is back on top, Steven has yet to meet Yolanda Neff, Jonathan is selling bike stuff, and we answered a bunch of questions including how to get your dropper post to not slip, why matchmakers may not be a good idea, and why this "gravel" thing is so popular.
