WHO iS: Philip Tinstman

Today we are talking bikes and BWR:

Interviewer: "You're no stranger to bikes. Where did it all start for you?"

Philip Tinstman: "I've been riding bikes my whole life. I started racing BMX, which led to a good segue into racing cross country mountain bikes. Then, I raced downhill mountain bikes for a living. I had a fun career doing that, even won a medal in the X Games. I also raced Motocross, road bikes, and gravel bikes - a little bit of everything on two wheels. Count Me In."
