This week I’m joined by one of Enduro’s rising stars, Matt Stuttard. After a huge crash in 2017 where he was told he may never ride a bike again, Matt has worked his way back up the field. With a solid 2019 season so far he is currently ranked 17th in the overall, even though he is racing as a privateer. We sat down to find out more about Matt’s story, and just what it takes to breakthrough in World Enduro these days.
If you want to follow Matt, you can find him on Instagram @mattstuttard46 and on Facebook @MattStuttardRacing. He’s also on YouTube here.
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. As a Downtime listener, you get 20% off your entire order by using the code DOWNTIME at the checkout.
