Tom Pidcock has won world titles on his mountain bike and cyclocross bike, and taken an iconic stage of the Tour de France atop the fearsome Alpe d’Huez. And he’s only 24.
The British superstar has the cycling world at his feet, so Rob and Eliot gave him a call ahead of his final mountain bike World Cup appearance of the season and welcomed him as the latest guest to Just Ride.
The INEOS Grenadier spends his winter racing cyclocross and then switches between MTB and road racing across the rest of his campaign, like almost nobody else in the world.
The guys discussed Tom’s Olympic ambitions for 2024, how he’s able to squeeze so much into a season, his iconic attacking descent that went viral in the Tour de France and – of course – Rob and Eliot tried to persuade him to take on an MTB Downhill World Cup one day. With Tom, you never know!
