Hey everyone, I am going to be doing an interview with Cam McCaul shortly and wanted to let you have the opportunity to post your questions in here too for him.

What do you want to ask the man himself?

Where can we see the interview?

i'd ask Cam to discuss the role his parents have played in the development of his career as a mountain biker. i'm sure it would be interesting to have him reflect on his childhood and the obvious influence and prescence that they have/ have had in his life. he might also give some advice or opinions to all the older riders here who have kids and are keen to have them participate in this stupid sport-haha.

cam is known for his "energetic and enthusiastic" personality, and his seemingly tireless participation in the sport. history has shown many great athletes were or would have been diagnosed with ADD or ADHD, and have difficulties dealing with a less dynamic environment such as the classroom. was cam always as effusive as he presents himself in the mtn bike world? and did this present any difficulties for him in school or outside of his sports? does he have any opinions/ advice about this for others?(read-cam seems pretty ADHD in my unprofessional opinion, but it suits the sport and his character well. this question might lead to further discussion about his involvement/ passion in the sport.)

cam uses a gear shift on his downtube for his slopestyle bike- likely for easier barspins. what else has he added on his bike to help his tricks.

Actually the reason that the shifter is there is because otherwise it would defeat the purpose of his hydro-gyro.

It's definitely a killer, I know that a lot of people don't even want to think about that, but like Paul B said "In ten years I'll be a nobody, that's how action sports work"
