This week Morgan goes for a ride with top EWS pro Charlie Murray. Charlie is an incredible bike rider who’s had an unusual journey to the top of our sport. With his brother, he would ride around his parents house as a kid and this, he believes, formed the foundation of his bike handling skills. Never losing the sense of fun that is the reason we all ride in the first place, when Charlie went to university, he didn’t feel compelled to ride for the four years he was there, choosing instead to spend his weekends skiing and hanging out with friends. We think Charlie is a fascinating example of how effective a balanced life can be, even in elite level sport.

This time Morgan chats with Matt Walker while on a very warm and sunny ride in Finale, Italy. Matt is one of the best enduro riders in the world, finishing 10th in this year's World Series. He’s one of the few riders who competes in both the DH World Cup and the EWS and has had plenty of top results in both series. Despite his success, Matt has a philosophy for riding and racing that keeps fun as the top priority. In their conversation, Matt and Morgan discuss how Matt got into riding, where his success comes from, how he deals with injuries, and when you’ve got to be an idiot.

After launching the Derailed Podcast last week Morgy Bear is back for Episode 2. The podcast is here to give you an insight into why professional and everyday riders alike ride their bikes and help break down some of the barriers to getting into mountain biking or progressing as a mountain biker.

This week we speak to The Contour Collectives Christo Gallagher and look into why he rides and how that led him to starting the Contour Collective.
