MTB Q&A with Johnnie U

Say hello to Amanda a.k.a  @KittyMcCoy  She will explain. Ha! She is a SoCal native, so it's no wonder how she got on a bike. I think it's in their DNA. I recently connected with "Kitty" on the Instagrams and fell in love with her content. Not only can this gal shred, and shred she does, but she has this incredible ability to capture the fun of riding so well. Not just through POV but showing the community and how great it is. I love the way she edits and her music choices work so well. Her short lil' videos are so captivating. I'm serious, her videos are addicting. You got to check her out!If you want to see her vids you can find them here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kitty_mccoy/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCz-rGjMH8MbNLUomWmvZIIQ And if you want look great on the trail, she likes to ride in Brett Halls Unspoken Gear.

JT  @TheDustyDutchman  is back to talk about his event that is happening next weekend, Creator Camp! He and along with  @winmantrails  get a select group of MTB content creators to come out to Wisconsin to ride, create and have fun! And then you get to judge who wins! There are few categories with certain guidelines that have to be met but it is a great opportunity to connect with other creators to learn from and help each other out to make a great product. His camp was a success for all that went last year so he decided to up it and add more creators this year. I along with, I think, 17 others have the pleasure of hanging out and have a blast. I finally get to meet a lot of MTB content Creators that I've actually had on my show so even I don't win the challenges, I win in making new friends!

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.
