Vi får besøk av selveste Mads «Makken» Haugen – den norske OG-en av heel clickers, massive whips og drøye linjer, og nå importør av Nicolai sykler. Han har masse å si og vi tror dette er en episode man kan lære litt av! Vet du forskjellen på en downhill-rigg og en freeride-sykkel, og når og hvorfor ville du valgt det ene eller det andre?

This is not a typical Gnar Couch episode. Tonight, the boys focused on Jaxson Riddle's real story and the challenges he’s faced early in life, many of which mirror struggles listeners have shared privately with the hosts over the years. After watching Buried Alive, the importance of hearing directly from him felt immediate. The conversation went de…

There's a reason everyone on the show rides TRP brakes and has long before we knew people who work there. They're powerful, they feel fantastic, and they'll lay down a great skid when needed—just like Boston Rob's "substantial a$$." We got the another long-haired blonde boy—TRP marketing guy Nate Silberman—to join up with Cheef this episode to talk…

1:38:00

We love Reece Wallace. Not so much because he rides bikes, but more because he pisses off large corporate entities by posting clips of himself in excavator bucket hot tubs. It's also pretty cool that he bought the wings from a plane in which the pilot was beheaded so he could use them at his homemade bike park. Another cool thing about Reece Wallac…
