Shout out to Alan! He saved me from a shattered knee cap and surely a rough surgery/recovery by pushing multiple times for me to wear some giant knee pads during a Interbike Demo Days event. I was a cocky expert racer that was sure I could ride any mountain bike trails that some old bike shop employees could do. 30 seconds into the ride, I fall off the edge of this mountain, knee first into a sharp boulder. I still limped around the trade show all week, but it would have been really serious if it wasn't for Alan.

Episode 133, finally! Sorry for the long wait between podcast interviews. This one is worth the wait, Alan Foster. What an amazing guy. Alan has been involved in so many interesting layers of life that include BMX beyond what I expected. Alan is extremely modest so listen close and learn about the Cali transplant from Maryland and his trip around the Country which eventually brought him to my house for a great visit with his wife. We had a pretty good time and even experienced dinner in a local jail. 51 year old rebels. We aren't done yet!

Episode 133 - Alan Foster

Swampfest was great to me. Not only was the event insane but I was able to spend time with seven different guests that were all amazing! Mark Mulville is the 2nd podcast so far. Keep an ear out for five more! I had a gut feeling about Mark Mulville and what he would bring to the podcast for all of you listeners out there. We didn't just cover all of his amazing video parts from Anthem II to Who Brought The Dicks or his long term sponsor @profile_racing We covered some real life issues of anxiety and depression that is pretty familiar to so many, myself included. We also talked quite a bit about the Casselberry, Pittsburgh, Connecticut and lots of places in between that helped shape who he is today as a rider and a man. Pretty crazy that Mark grew up a couple towns away from me in Connecticut, as a young pre-teen. Mark is also a pretty amazing photographer that loves to focus on the wildlife of Florida, especially gators! I hope you all enjoy this listen, it was beyond my expectations and I am so grateful Mark made the time for our conversation and a couple laps at his trails! 

Thank you Mark!
