020 - Simon Blake - Sports Director For African MTB And Cycling Development MTB TRIBE - Your Trail Map to the World of Mountain Biking

In our third instalment of the African series and episode number Twenty we are talking with Simon Blake who is the Sports Director for African Mountain Biking and Cycling Development. Simon was nice enough to come on the show and fill us in on his role in introducing East African kids and adults to the world of mountain biking and cycling.
Simon is from Australia but has been living and working in East Africa for many years, helping grow awareness of the benefits that both mountain biking and cycling can bring and how it can become a career for those who have the skills and dedication. Simon has achieved this through many different methods, from pump tracks to enduro races but still believes they have a long way to go before this can become a reality for a lot of these kids.
