Dean Lucas interview: Podcast with Making Up The Numbers

This episode of the pod is a little bit different. It’s about racing, but it’s not just about racing. It’s about mental health but it’s not just about mental health. If we had to encapsulate it all in one word, it’s about mindset. Joining George is Scott Factory Racing’s Dean Lucas & they cover everything from World Cup podiums to making time; addiction to depression. It gets pretty deep, particularly in the second half & if you’re struggling with any of the things they talk about, please don’t suffer in silence, talk to someone & tell them how you’re feeling.

I have been a writer for nigh on 20 years, a photographer for 25 years and a mountain biker for 30 years. I have written countless magazine and website features and route guides for the UK mountain bike press, most notably for the esteemed and highly regarded Singletrackworld. Although I am a Lancastrian, I freely admit that West Yorkshire is my favourite place to ride. Rarely a week goes by without me riding and exploring the South Pennines.
