Until Sunset Podcast : Thomas Genon - Riding on water - Bike Kingdom video - part2

“In truth I F#%ing hate water”

Tommy G talks about the BikeKingdom video filmed in Switzerland where he had to ride on water, which he hated every second of. He explains how he learns tricks including the 9 step program to backflips. Thomas also explains a hearing problem he has suffered his whole life and how dealing with it has made him who he is.

"That guy Aaron Gwin.. I need to beat that guy! I mean its been too long that he has been winning every race"
Tommy keeps up his role from the video and jokes about racing in world cups and riding on the moon.

1 month living in a small town called Parpan in Lenzerheide surrounded by the Swiss Alps. Tommy got to explore the riding that was on offer by the resort and the nearby trails. It turns out the farmers weren't t0o stoked on big jumps being built on the land. And said "we are using up the grass for the cows" It was all in the bike park and it was permitted for but to keep everyone happy we had to slow things down for a few days. This meant Thomas and I could have a little chat in the chalet that the whole crew was living in.

We hope you enjoy these interviews.
