Get ready for something new from BikeRadar and MBUK!
Our friends at Mountain Biking UK are venturing into video, bringing the trails, tech and personalities of Britain’s best-selling mountain biking magazine to life on BikeRadar's YouTube channel.
In weekly episodes dropping on BikeRadar, we’ll be celebrating the endless fun you can have on a mountain bike, with help from some familiar faces.
We’ll be bringing the joy of riding to video, showcasing the most exciting tech, telling the stories that run through the sport and sharing the culture, lifestyle and spirit that make mountain biking so special.
Hosted by Will Soffe, the magazine’s former staff writer, and with former BikeRadar videographer Max Wilman behind the camera, our expanded MTB video coverage will complement BikeRadar’s existing content on YouTube, where we'll continue to deliver the world's best buying and riding advice.
On that note, eagle-eyed viewers may have noticed that we've recently grown BikeRadar's video team, with the addition of dedicated road cycling and mountain biking presenters.
Back to MBUK, and you can expect to see regular appearances from the rest of the team, too, along with some big names from the world of MTB, including Olly Wilkins, the Athertons and more.
The first video goes live at www.youtube.com/@bikeradar on Wednesday 15 March. Check out the trailer now!
What you can look forward to...
Here’s a sneak peek at some of the videos that'll be live on the channel soon.
Surrey’s rowdiest singletrack
Don’t miss ‘A Lap With… Olly Wilkins’, where Odub shows us around his local Surrey Hills trails.
The Revolution’s over
Gutted by the news that Revolution Bike Park was to close, we headed up to north Wales to get the full lowdown – and enjoy some farewell laps at this legendary venue.
Mullet mania!
Will loves mixing wheel sizes so much that he’s ‘mulleted’ all his bikes. But why? And is it something you should think about doing, too?
Tales from the trails
We head to Dyfi Bike Park, where the world-beating Atherton siblings show us how to shred their home tracks.
Mountain biking worldwide
All the latest news, tech and opinions from across the sport, delivered in inimitable MBUK style.
Meet the team...
Will Soffe, presenter
Moustachioed air ace Will Soffe worked as a mechanic and suspension technician for the likes of Atherton Racing, Fox suspension, British Cycling and others before joining MBUK, so he knows a thing or two about bikes and how to ride them.
Max Wilman, videographer
Before joining the BikeRadar video team, Max enjoyed the cushy life of an overseas bike guide and then photographer. When he’s not staring down the barrel of the lens, he can be found trail building, riding laps or working on converting his big yellow van.
