Dan Wolfe is a former World Cup downhill and EDR racer from Ireland, known to many for his live reporting from events for Pinkbike. During the episode, Dan talks about growing up in Ireland and how he discovered mountain biking through his older brother. He also discusses how he first started racing downhill, becoming one of the early riders to switch to enduro, and speculates on what the future could look like for EDR. Dan walks us through how he began managing social media accounts for Pinkbike, his true love for being at/reporting from events, and his keen eye for riding styles.
