Sven Martin was out in Val di Sole, Italy, last week covering the downhill World Cup finals for Hurly Burly, our downhill yearbook.
If you’re a fan of Sven’s legendary interviews (we are), you’ll enjoy scrolling through all the soundbites below. We’ve divvied them up into ones recorded after finals (rowdy) and ones recorded after qualifying. Some are YouTube vids and some are audio files below a photo – let us know which you prefer.
We’ve enjoyed covering the World Cups and EWS races this year and hope you’ve enjoyed following some of the photo, video, zine, newsletter and audio stuff we’ve sent out from the races. We’ve kind of been experimenting with what works (what we like making and what you like reading) so that we can have a real stab at it in 2023. So any feedback is most welcome – it’ll help us make better stuff for real mountain bike fans like you and us.
All interviews and photos by Sven Martin.
