that the things we can do turn out bigger and better
every time than if we were just trying to do it on our
own – same goes for racing too. The other great
thing is that we get to hook up with loads of their
other athletes which is always a laugh.
Are there any new projects in the pipeline you can
tell us about?
Yeah, I could tell you something – but Dan Brown
might shoot me! We are super stoked to be planning
another Red Bull film project at the moment.
When did you last ride at Llangynog Quarry? Have
you & Dan crafted any new lines there lately?
We ride there all the time, every chance we get really.
Athy’s always poring over maps and the weather
forecast, looking for the perfect window, so whether
it’s a summer evening ride or a freezing cold 6am,
he’s dragging us out there.
Are you into any other sports outside mountain
biking?
Yeah, in the winter I ride BMX and loads of
Motocross.
What’s the best Downhill course you’ve ever
ridden?
Any one of Athy’s creations. They are always on wild,
open hillsides and totally gnarly. They are more about
survival than speed so you finish the run feeling wellchallenged!
How psyched are you for the 2014 Downhill
season? Do you feel you’re in with a good chance
