MTB Q&A with Johnnie U

Say hey to Ryan Butler,  @ButlerDoesIt76  ! He's a mountain biker that hails from Arizona. So I'm guessing he likes to ride chuck! HA! When Ryan says he "DOES IT" he means it! He still rides bikes even after a liver transplant, a bum knee and and heart problems! Ryan seems tough as nails! In fact he was even attacked by a Javelina on a night ride that left him with a broken arm. And when he got better, back on the bike he went. So what's you excuse? This guy was even in a metal band that shared the stage with Metallica! What?! I'm so happy Ryan wanted to come on the Pod and share his story.

Say hey to Steve a.k.a  @BentSpokesMTB  ! He's a shredder that hails from New Jersey. I started following Steve years ago after I had chatted with another Jersey rider  @brian_on_a_bike  . I loved watching this guy ride. He rides the way I was I could. He can't keep the tires on the ground! HE SENDS IT! He doesn't just ride he gets involved in the trail building as well. So I reached out to him a couple years back and he wasn't ready to do a pod. But thankfully for me and you, he is now!

Instant riding buddy. And the weather doesn't stop this guy. It's like -100 where he lives in Wisconsin, slight exaggeration, but he still gets out there and does laps.

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 Hola to Luis! Better known on Instagram as The_Professor_MTB or on Youtube as  @Influbikertv  ! Luis is a South Florida mountain biker and saying he is "good" on a mountain bike would be an understatement! What this guy does on a bike is just amazing. Just about nothing he can't do. When I started following his page my jaw dropped. It's hard to explain but not only can he do just about anything on a mountain bike but he does it with such style that it looks like the bike is just an extension of who he is. I actually got a chance to meet him and watch him in action and it gave me goose bumps. Really! So that's why I had to have him on. Oh, he's also hysterical on Instagram even if you can't speak Spanish you get what he's doing. Side note, most of his content is in his native tongue, Spanish. So our mutual friend Eric Vazquez, who's been on the show before, agreed to come on and help with translations.
