Theo Erlangsen is BACK, and the gloves are off...
In this episode, Theo joins Olly and Davi to break down the leaked Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) document titled '2025 MTB Reform: Evolution of Mountain Bike Racing'. Together, they dissect how the document was leaked, explore Theo's take on the few positive suggestions, and critically examine the potential fallout. Will race teams and riders be forced out? Could a big social media following become more important than race results? Should Chris Ball and the UCI consult the athletes directly? And, what will these changes mean for the future of the sport we all love?
The guys also discuss how tracks could be improved, what the changes imply for the future of mountain biking and the broader consequences for both athletes and fans. Plus, Theo shares stories from his latest adventures, including the Monster Girl trip to Ibiza, the Monster Backyard Battle events, Trans Madeira, and much more.
Please share your thoughts in the comments, we want to hear your views on the current state of our sport...This episode's sponsors & News

Danny MacAskill joins Olly and Davi in the studio to break down his latest film project, CAMPUS.
In this episode, Danny shares what it was like to have free rein to ride at the Adidas headquarters in Herzogenaurach, Germany. He talks about his first visits to the campus, pitching the project with stick figure drawings, figuring out how to ride on top of an Adidas city bike (and how it almost broke his ankle), meeting Bjørn Gulden, the CEO of Adidas, and landing his biggest ever flat drop. He also reveals which tricks took the most attempts and offers insights into his creative process.
Danny further provides tips on how to ride trials, explains why filming on an iPhone is crucial, expresses his infectious love for eBikes, shares his biggest inspirations, talks about his favorite Adidas FiveTen shoes, answers listener questions, and much more.

Former Downhill Mountain Bike World Champion Manon Carpenter joins the podcast!
Manon Carpenter sits down with Olly and Davi for an in-depth conversation about her incredible racing career. Growing up in Wales, Manon reflects on her early years immersed in mountain biking, spurred on by her dad, Jason, who founded the Dragon Downhill Series. She shares memories of helping out at races and her journey from her first race to becoming a pro rider. Manon dives into her early successes, including her first national races, inspirations, landing her first sponsors, and the remarkable achievement of finishing second in her debut Elite World Cup. Manon also opens up about her decision to step away from downhill racing during the 2017 season.
