Gromcast

Welcome back mountain bikers! Gromcast is back on the rails, and back with one of the most popular episode guests so far- Scott Fitzgerald of Southern Enduro. (And a discount code!) Please excuse the background noise as this was recorded literally sat in the pub, but bar a few minor technical hiccups it was great to be back in the saddle with Gromcast and Scott again.

I'm super excited to bring you this episode where I chat to Nick from Head Impact Trauma ltd. HIT company founder Euan and Nick are right at the cutting edge of concussion research with their Impact sensor. A growing number of World Cup downhill riders are going to be using this device on their helmets this season, the potential for what this device can help with and what it may lead to in the...

Gromcast is back! After what was a much extended hiatus thanks to life, work and a million other reasons I have finally got another episode in the bag. This time I chat to previous guest and 2022 British Elite Men's Overall Downhill series winner Luke Williamson. We are joined by the lesser known part of the Williamson racing operation, Francis Williamson. Francis is Luke's dad and a huge...

You asked so here it is, the first product review episode of Gromcast. If you like it I'll do more, if it bombs then I won't, simples! More of a YouTube episode so apologies to anyone listening on audio only. I give you my thoughts on one of Etnies new(ish) range of bike shoes, the Culvert Mid. Does it do enough to rival the domination of Five Ten? Listen to find out why I think it does and then s...

 Welcome to episode three of Gromcast, where my planned catch-up with Luke after the Leogang World Cup became a chat about concussions. Luke suffered a concussion shortly before the WC while riding in Champery, and missed the race so he could recover. Concussions and how athletes deal with them in MTB are a big topic right now, so we dig into that a little. Hope you enjoy it, let me know what...

I catch up with one of the biggest race organisers in the south of the UK, Scott Fitzgerald of Southern Enduro. Scott is the main man behind what has become one of the best-attended race series and a staple of the race calendar. Recorded outdoors on a beautiful summer's evening at Rogate (apologies for the slight difference in sound quality compared to episode 1) this chat went on into the night a...
