MTB Q&A with Johnnie U

Say hey to Jim Day! Jim is an engineer by day and bike builder by night and weekends and maybe whenever he has free time. HA! And the bike brand is called  @QuarryCyclingCo  and the frame is called the Stave. Steel frames! Which is unique in a world of aluminum and carbon fiber. But he isn't just a guy who has a welding tool, he has worked in the bike industry for sometime. Heard of Hayes Dominion brakes? He was involved with those just to name one. He is hands on every aspect of building this bike. From design, to welding, to painting and everything in between. And I have to say, they are works of art. I would hate to get it dirty. It's that pretty! I met Jim at  @TheDustyDutchman  Creator Camp in Sept. and had to have him on to talk about these amazing custom bikes.

Say hey to Steve Kammerer a.k.a Transplant_mtb! Steve had some serious issues with his heart. So much so he had to get a heart transplant! Going through something like that and coming out the other side is a story of strength in itself. But when Steve got back on his feet he wanted to go back to his first love, riding dirt bikes. But that didn't happen. So instead, he got into mountain biking. It was a slow start. Like it is for a lot of us. But he endured and fell in love with it. And with that competitive bug inside him, he started to do downhill mountain bike racing! To say Steve is incredible would be the understatement of the year! I'm honored to help him tell his story of courage, resilience and strength.If you'd like to find out more about Steve you can find him here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/transplant_mtb/And a documentary about him here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWZxmtnnc2sAlos, if you'd sign up to be an organ donor: https://www.organdonor.gov/sign-upAlso if you got your bike dirty check out FLTHY for bike washes, lubes, degreaser and sealant!https://flthyco.com/#bike #mtb #podcast

Say hello to Amanda a.k.a  @KittyMcCoy  She will explain. Ha! She is a SoCal native, so it's no wonder how she got on a bike. I think it's in their DNA. I recently connected with "Kitty" on the Instagrams and fell in love with her content. Not only can this gal shred, and shred she does, but she has this incredible ability to capture the fun of riding so well. Not just through POV but showing the community and how great it is. I love the way she edits and her music choices work so well. Her short lil' videos are so captivating. I'm serious, her videos are addicting. You got to check her out!If you want to see her vids you can find them here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kitty_mccoy/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCz-rGjMH8MbNLUomWmvZIIQ And if you want look great on the trail, she likes to ride in Brett Halls Unspoken Gear.

JT  @TheDustyDutchman  is back to talk about his event that is happening next weekend, Creator Camp! He and along with  @winmantrails  get a select group of MTB content creators to come out to Wisconsin to ride, create and have fun! And then you get to judge who wins! There are few categories with certain guidelines that have to be met but it is a great opportunity to connect with other creators to learn from and help each other out to make a great product. His camp was a success for all that went last year so he decided to up it and add more creators this year. I along with, I think, 17 others have the pleasure of hanging out and have a blast. I finally get to meet a lot of MTB content Creators that I've actually had on my show so even I don't win the challenges, I win in making new friends!
