This Is Peaty - Episode One 2012

Collage for EP1

Fueled by Monster Energy, Episode One takes you on an international whirlwind adventure. Starting at the legendary Ingle Gym, Sheffield, along with close friend and Heavyweight boxer David Howe, Steve hasn’t been slacking in the off-season, that’s for sure.

Ingle Gym Sheffield.

Getting in quality Downhill runs in the UK is tough for someone like Steve, who’s nearest uplift is almost 2 hours away… So any excuse to head for San Romolo has to be a good one. Staying over at Argentina Bike with SPS rider James Swinden in tow, one Piaggio purchase later and a few amazing days in the sun, the season was off to a solid start…

His new toy...

It might have been an early start to the season this year, but everyone came out swinging at Round 1 Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. Huge Jumps, Dropper Posts, Weetabix and an ‘almost’ fairytale finish for the Santa Cruz Syndicate.

Winning lift

Obviously psyched for his team-mate Greg Minnar, but a tough start to the year for Steve, back in 15th place. But don’t worry he’s not out of reach just yet though, with a long season still to follow.

Val Di Sole is basically Wharncliffe but a bit longer anyway, right?

Until next time...

 Really? I would disagree. The quality of production alone is much better with The Atherton Project. Of course, I am not sure if this is the first episode of the entire series, but as of right now I would say it is not near as well made as The Atherton Project. Plus the Atherton's in my opinion have better charisma on camera. This could also be because they have been doing it for so long.

 What are you talking about Steve peat has more charisma in his little finger than the whole of the athertons put together... As for 'doing it longer' Steve peats been on camera for near on 20 years now.

 I'm speaking strictly of the quality of the shows. They are in different levels. You can't let bias cloud your judgement. But if you don't believe so, fine, then don't. I thought the episode was alright. But the show does still need work.

 Christ, Joe Bowmans filming has come on a bit, kinda blows the Atherton project away.

 52% podium rate. Incredible. Old guys rule!!! Peaty is a class act and a very positive ambassador for our sport.
  • 1 0
 Well Minaar has the same amount of podiums but in less number of races (he entered the WCup scene later) so he has a higher podium rate. Both have been World Cup champion 3 times. Steve Peat has more overall number of wins. Minaar has been 2nd in the world cup overall 3 times vs 2 for Peat. Both have been World Champion once. It's very close between them.
Still the best in my eyes was Nicolas Vouilloz...
  • 1 0
 SintraFreeride. I hear you. Minaar is a beast. He shreds and deserves all of his success. Any rider with that kind of podium rate is a legend for sure.
