Blake Samson has been a sponsored rider since 2007, that’s 18 years! As many of you will know, Blake had a rather bad crash recently. This has given him time to reflect on his life with bikes and consider where he wants his biking career to go next. Blake also chats with Sam Reynolds and Olly Wilkins as they are at similar stages in their careers to see what they think.
