Guys, I love your pod, it’s one of one MTB podcast I still dedicate time listen to.
BUT… the pre-race shows are morphing into a second post-race review.
Please, for the love of Christ, limit this to 5-10 mins at most. I want hype for the next race, not endless autopsy of sector times etc from the previous round!
(Pains me to drop a star. I’m sorry Chris!)
