In this special episode of The Mind Mountain Podcast, recorded at the Maydena Bike Park on the final days of our Tasmania Mountain Bike Expedition, Jake sits down with Mark and Brendan from Tailored Trails to dive into all things riding bikes in Tasmania.

You’ll also hear from a few of our amazing expedition guests who share their favourite trails, key takeaways, and standout moments from the expedition.

Along the way, Jake, Mark, and Brendan share practical mindset tips, tools, and strategies, and discuss the most common skills they find themselves teaching riders in Tasmania. Together, they unpack the vast and varied riding zones and the unique culture that makes Tasmania such a special place to ride.

The conversation pulls back the curtain on how joining an expedition like the Tasmania MTB Expedition allows riders to experience the very best trails in the most seamless way possible, while also returning home a better rider.
