Red Bull Hardline 2019

September 17, 2019

So this weekend I headed to Red Bull Hardline, to try and bring you some chat with the riders, and hopefully give you a bit more insight into what it’s like to ride at an event like this. It was my first time there, so I didn’t know what to expect, and it was a little trickier than I expected to get access to the riders throughout the weekend… but I did manage to get some interviews for you. So here is a short episode featuring Brendan Fairclough, Laurie Greenland, Kade Edwards, Bernard Kerr and plenty more. I hope you enjoy listening…

This episode of the podcast is supported by Precision Hydration. Hydration is an often overlooked element of performance, not just in racing, but in riding and life in general. We all sweat at different rates, and lose different amounts of sodium in that sweat, so it’s not a ‘one size fits all’ fix. Precision Hydration realise that, and are here to help you optimise your personal hydration. Head to here to complete the questionnaire and get your own hydration plan specific to your needs.
