Hands down one of the best episodes of any podcast I've listened to. There's enough wisdom and thought-provoking ideas in it that it's worth listening to twice.

@downtimepodcast: Echoing what others have said here. Thanks for producing this...
And, as usual, another banger shot from Colin Meagher above.

RC dropping some serious, sobering knowledge about mountain biking and e-bikes. I think he's completely right but there is too much money in the game to do the right thing now. His advice about asking the simple questions hits home, specially during these uncertain times when innovative thinking and doing is needed.

That headshot makes him look like if George Lucas took up cycling

Yes - and those would be his Stormtroopers bikes.

That's who I thought it was too ha ha. Then I saw the Turner bikes in the background. RC is GL and Turner has a new model coming out! Crazy times.

This guy's a bad ass wealth of knowledge. I hated, but yet could not stop reading Mountain Action, once RC left, I cancelled my subscription.

If you’re a regular mountain biker then you’ll be familiar with Richard Cunningham’s work.

Fixed.

That was well-worth the listen. RC has a way of raising as many new questions while he answers those asked him. He's a trip.

Brillant! That part about hikers, emtb and coexisting in one trail’s system was the single best thing I heard in this topic in all my life. Thank You. Mind opening.

That flannel color has to be Dakine’s all time best seller.

Loved it. Listening to Richard with a beer and a bike in the stand helps with the isolation.
