GMBN Presents The Mountain Bike Podcast
GMBN Presents The Mountain Bike Podcast
Episode • Apr 22 • 26m
This week on the GMBN Dirt Shed Show, Martyn Ashton is joined by Rich Payne to ask the question, how does age affect mountain biking? We know MTB doesn’t get easier with age, but what do the experts think? We chat to Professor Leigh Breen, a world-leading expert in skeletal muscle physiology, to dig into why mountain biking starts to feel tougher as we get older.



Plus the latest MTB news, Hacks and Bodges, Caption Contest, and of course the Bike Vault!
