He went on to get signed by the mighty Global Racing and tore up his first year as a pro ( even though he was still a junior ). Mick went on to win a World Cup in Spain and stepped on the podium 20 times in his 105 UCI Downhill World Cups starts. Enjoy Pt 1 with the man himself.

Thanks to our episode sponsor ODI. I have been on these and only these Grips for well over 20 years. How cool is that? They are the original Lock on grip.
They have an incredible range of options but we want to tell you about something new they offering.
Drawing on over 40 years of experience in producing performance-driven grips and feedback from their extensive network of top riders across the globe, the Reflex grips have been engineered to reduce impacts and vibration being passed on to the riders’ hands to allow you to ride more with less pain and fatigue.
