116 - Killian Callaghan The Road Of A Professional Mountain Biker - Part 3 - a podcast by Gareth Beckett

Episode #116 Part 3 of a 3 Part bi-weekly show with Killian Callaghan about  becoming a professional mountain biker. On this episode we chat, Specialized, bike set up, training, motivation, future youth and 2020 racing goals.

 

On Part 3 we chat to Killian about getting that call from Specialized while standing at the side of a van, having a shave and being half naked. We touch on how that made him feel, after all the hard work, dedication and sacrifice to finally get the call to be part of the Specialized team and getting paid to race the EWS circuit professionally.

 

We get into the transaction period and the difficulties in making that move to a professional team and the extra pressures that brings.

 

So tune into the final part of this awesome chat with Killian about all things MTB, racing, riding, sponsorship and why he will be racing for a number of years to come. It’s a laugh a minute with Killian’s great story telling, it has certainly been an off road ride but a super enjoyable one at that.

 

Enjoy the show!
