Miscellaneous
This episode is all about downhill mountain bike racing with PJ Noto, the Bike Park Manager of the Sugar Mountain Bike Park. PJ was the assistant coach at Lees-McRae College for six years before developing a downhill bike park in the High Country at Sugar Mountain, NC. He shares the story about his growth in the sport as coach, then bike park developer, to now a race promoter in conjunction with Downhill Southeast, the premier gravity race series in the Southeast. The finals of the race series are on July 31-August 1st on Sugar Mountain, and PJ shares what the courses are like and what big names will be racing. The discussion also includes stories PJ and I have experienced during our years together in collegiate cycling, especially epic travel stories of breaking down all across the country. Hopefully this episode encourages you to visit Sugar Mountain and maybe hop on a downhill bike for a run down the mountain!
