    The Highs and Lows of World Enduro – Gowaan Gals
    Dec 17 2024
    Today, we're joined by the Gowaan Gals, Bex Baraona and Chloe Taylor, two of the most inspiring and down-to-earth riders in the mountain bike scene. We’ll be hearing about the ups and downs of their last couple of seasons.

But the well trodden path is not for everyone and Bex and Chloe are proving that with their unique approach. From racing to community building, these two are all about making mountain biking fun and accessible for everyone.

Open, honest, and inspiring, this conversation offers a rare insight into what it takes to be at the very top of the sport.

  • From World Cup Racer to GMBN Presenter – Neil Donoghue

    From World Cup Racer to GMBN Presenter – Neil Donoghue
    Dec 3 2024
    Today we’re joined by Neil Donoghue. While many now recognise Neil as a familiar face and presenter for GMBN, his journey started long before his YouTube fame. Neil was part of a group of UK riders handpicked and supported by Steve Peat through Royal Racing. In this episode, we delve into Neil’s career as a World Cup downhill racer, exploring the highs, the challenges, and what ultimately led him to step away from the race circuit. Neil opens up about rebuilding his life and career, transitioning into a respected coach and enduro racer, why the EWS didn’t quite click for him, and what eventually drew him into the ever-evolving world of YouTube. We also dive into the explosive growth of GMBN, the shifting landscape of mountain bike media, and Neil’s thoughts on topics like injury recovery, e-bike technology, and much more. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Neil Donoghue. You can also watch this episode on YouTube here. You can follow Neil on Instagram @neildonoghue.
