Pod intro
Bikes don't just give you all the feels when you are riding them, the whole world you enter into when you get hooked is just as beneficial.
Hear a prime example of this from Emma, the guest in today’s pod.
Em has been crowned the ultimate hype queen by the MTB community, boosting everyone’s confidence and passing on her infectious energy and love for the sport to everyone she rides with.
Em shares with us how bikes have helped her overcome her obstacles in managing a stammer and constantly push her out of her comfort zone and thrive.
The Guest:
Paramedic by trade but in my spare time I’m Trek Bath ‘s Ambassador and Women’s Advocate, trying to encourage and support more people to get into mountain biking and cycling! I just love bikes , hanging out and meeting cool people and bringing those top vibes!

Take away's from the episode:
- Bikes give you this whole world both on and off the saddle to push you in so many ways, they open up opportunities to do things you wouldn’t ordinarily do.
- Secondary bike hype is REAL and just the best. Nothing better than someone cheer leading you from the side of a trail to make you clear that feature.
- We love bikes.
