Rachel Atherton is a certified mountain bike hall of famer and if Rob and Eliot listed out her entire list of achievements then we wouldn’t have time for anything else on this week’s Just Ride.
The queen of downhill, Rachel made headlines in 2023 for returning to the World Cup scene after overcoming a long-term achilles injury and becoming a mother for the first time. Not only did she compete in Lenzerheide but, in typical Rachel fashion, she won.
That was her 40th World Cup win, a remarkable 17 years after her first.
As you might expect, this turned into one of Rob and Eliot’s longest-ever Just Ride chats. History books, retirement, Red Bull Hardline, motherhood… there was so much to discuss with the incredible Rachel and the guys got stuck in.
If you want to watch this full-length episode with Rachel, Eliot and Rob then you can find it on Red Bull TV, and if you want to email the show then please hit us up at podcast@redbull.com.
