Description
Vero Sandler has become one of the most influential riders in women's freeride mountain biking, but her journey started on the World Cup downhill circuit.
In this episode, Vero joins Andrew Neethling to talk about walking away from racing, discovering a passion for freeride, helping pioneer opportunities for women at events like DarkFest and Rampage, and why finding balance has been the key to a long and fulfilling career.
The conversation also dives into fear, burnout, concussions, meditation, progression, and what the future holds for the next generation of female freeriders.
Whether you're a racer, a freerider, or simply love mountain biking, this is an honest conversation about following your own path and redefining success.
