Making Up The Numbers Podcast Episode 3 | Will Longden

Our very own racer of mediocrity, George Thompson, sits down with Will Longden to continue his Making Up The Numbers Podcast for the 2019 season in association with Hope Technology, Revolution Bike Park and us, Singletrack.

Making Up The Numbers Will Longden — George and Will. In a really posh caravan?.

Hello and welcome to a very special Making Up The Numbers podcast.

It’s been National Champs weekend here in the UK and after racing all weekend, it’s now Monday afternoon and I’m back at Revolution Bike Park again. Why you might ask? Well, the Senior Men’s sleeve stayed in the family. Matt Walker won it last season, Danny Hart yesterday and an opportunity came up to sit down and have a chat with Madison Saracen team manager, Will Longden.

Hit play on our podcast widget below and settle in for an hour of Downhill race chat.

George Thompson

After taking a 17 year break from exercise, George rediscovered mountain bikes in 2008. Six years later, at 40 years of age he started racing Downhill and the following season somehow ended up on the Revolution Bike Park Race Team. As the other members of the team fought for podiums and National Series victories, George searched for mid-pack mediocrity. In a bit to add some value #makingupthenumbers was born; a blog about their race weekends and in particular life towards the back of the field.
