Fort William 2022 Pre-Race Show

Downtime - The Mountain Bike Podcast

The second round of the 2022 Mountain Bike Downhill World Cup is in Fort William this weekend, so we’re kicking off the race week by chatting with coach to the stars, Chris Kilmurray aka PointOne Athletic. We chat about emotional tokens, wind tunnel testing, the positives and negatives of a high-pivot bike on this track and plenty more. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Chris Kilmurray.
