1 The War and Treaty Are Getting Carried Away 46:55
Episode 261 - Greg Minnaar on Blank Chequebooks, Winning Culture & How to Truly Test a Bike
Manage episode 448943115 series 3348782
When Greg Minnaar left the Santa Cruz Syndicate, it was about as big of a news story as you get in mountain bike racing. A rider who went against the very best of each generation, it was at one time impossible to think of him racing for anyone other than the Californian brand. One season later, to say he's landed on his feet would be an understatement. His 2024 racing season didn't unfold as he would have hoped, but he rounds out the year with a World Cup podium, fresh motivation, and a partnership with a brand he seems to be very well aligned with, even if now it's about helping other riders win, and not his own racing ambitions.
Brian and I caught up with him to talk about old bikes, blank chequebooks and the lucky number 13.
