Reviewing the News w/ Mike Ferrentino (February 2025)

Another month has gone by, giving Mike and Simon plenty to talk about in the latest edition of Reviewing the News. In the last episode, they were super excited about the upcoming Red Bull Hardline in Tasmania, and today they get into the results, the insane speeds throughout the course, Asa Vermette’s rise to elite-level racing, and Jackson Goldstone’s redemption. It wouldn’t be a Reviewing the News episode without some bike industry news, so the lads discuss the recently imposed tariffs, the return of Nukeproof, and what’s happening with Rocky Mountain, plus a fun conversation about some new cycling startups. All of this and more in our February edition of Reviewing the News.RELATED LINKS:BLISTER+ MembershipBLISTER+ Real World TestimonialsBlister LabsThis Week’s Gear GiveawayBlister Mountain Bike Buyer’s GuideTOPICS & TIMES:Mike’s Looking Fit (1:29)Hardline Tasmania (4:27)Gates 100k purse predictions for ‘25 (12:31)Atherton Racing vs Aon Racing (20:00)Nukeproof Rising From the Ashes (25:45)Tariffs Again (34:01)Rocky Mountain Bikes Update (40:45)Arkansas Cycling Startup Accelerator (42:42)What We’re Reading and Watching (1:02:16)CHECK OUT OUR OTHER PODCASTSBlister CinematicOff The CouchGEAR:30Blister PodcastCRAFTED Hosted on Acast.
