Today I'm joined by Strength Factory's Ben Plenge. Ben was responsible for our most popular episode of the year when he joined me in January to help you stay fit and make sure you can still shred when you’re 70. This time we sat down to talk more specifically about how to put together your winter fitness blueprint, to give you the best chance of smashing the trails when spring and summer roll back around.







We chat about motivation, creating a foundation, the importance of breathing and much more, so hit play above, give it a listen and boost your winter fitness gains.

Cotic Bikes







Cotic has got a knack for making fun and outrageously fast bikes, and that carries over into their hardtail range. Both the BFe and the Solaris delivery that perfect balance of fun and capability that Cotic are well known for. The BFe is the do it all trail slayer, and the Solaris is probably the one for you if you're more into the longer and slightly less hardcore rides, although it can definitely still handle a bit of rough!







Cotic’s hardtails have been so popular this year that they have been selling out each batch before they even arrive. So if you want to spice up your winter riding with an awesome hardtail, then you need to get on it now. Just head to cotic.co.uk to find out more.
