Brendan Fairclough Reveals New Business, the Legends Returning to Les Gets and Rampage Advice

Brendan Fairclough is back on The Ride Companion to reveal his new business, ROVIKA!

Recorded inside the ROVIKA warehouse, Brendog and Olly Wilkins also look ahead to Les Gets, where Brendan is joining downhill legends Sam Hill and Steve Peat for a special Monster Energy course preview.

Brendan also shares what it's really like trying to follow Amaury Pierron at race pace, why World Cup qualifying can be more exciting than the finals and what makes the atmosphere at Les Gets unlike anywhere else in mountain biking.

The lads also chat filming with Nino Schurter in Lenzerheide, the future of Roaming on 2 Wheels, plans involving Peter Sagan, Kade Edwards' first Red Bull Rampage and Brendan's three biggest pieces of advice for a Rampage rookie. Plus, Brendan discusses Whistler, Red Bull Hardline and why his new ROVIKA venture is designed to work with local bike shops rather than compete against them.
