Josh Bryceland – Don’t Call It a Comeback

Josh Bryceland, aka Ratboy, is a huge fan favourite. After stepping away from World Cup racing after his 2016 season, we've seen Josh change his focus. But after all those years away, will we finally see him back between the tape at a downhill World Cup? Join me as Josh and I catch up on the last few years. Hear how his use of psychedelics has informed some of his decision making. Josh shares the details behind his move from Santa Cruz to Cannondale, shedding some light on the impact it had on his own mental health. We also discuss becoming a father, running an enduro race and ask the question on everyone's mind 'will we see you between the tapes at a World Cup?'. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Josh Bryceland.
