Phil Atwill is on The Ride Companion Podcast! In this episode, Phil joins Olly and Davi to talk about his incredible career (so far), from making riding fun at Aston Hill and earning his first pay cheque as a pro, to dealing with injuries, pressure, and the infamous 2017 hardtail World Cup protest run. He talks about his long-standing relationship with Propain Bikes and how it inspired the creation of the Propain Positive Team, his move to Greece, and why he’s so dedicated to growing the local MTB scene. Phil also opens up about the state of downhill racing, mental health, and balancing competition with creative projects like Flow State 2. Along the way we dive into urban downhill madness, his honest thoughts on Rampage, the “prison bus” team van, product development with sponsors, and even some strong words for British Cycling plus much more... <a href= "https://www.bikeparkwales.com/about/event/bpw-x-the-ride-companion-christmas-ride">  The Ride Companion Christmas Ride at BikePark Wales!</a> Episode Sponsors:-  - Pedros Tools → These are the best tools folks, no question.
