Is Good
One of the better mountain biking podcasts
I learned the language of MTB from The Path
I started listening to this show back in 2017 and it taught me the language of mountain biking. The ins and outs of everything MTB. It also showed me they have 2 stores near by me, which are in the SoCal Orange County area. Glad to see it’s back and their shops look better then ever. Hopefully I can save enough money to finally buy a Santa Cruz Nomad from them…been wanting that bike for about 5 years! It’s a great podcast and shop so if you’re in the area go visit them. Support the brick and mortar stores!
