Mattie - a true trooper

It’s been a tough year for him

The Tirol KTM rider is supported by @raynerfoundation.bsky.social
“I won’t lie, I was pretty nervous beforehand. It had been over 9 months since I last raced.”

After months sidelined by illness, Mattie's back - and he's got stories to tell: from gravel adventures to slippery Slovenian roads and tough Italian climbs.

Interesting to hear @carltonkirby.bsky.social and @adamblythe89.bsky.social discussing the British Contingent resurging and the fact that many of the riders are undercover until they jump into the WT.

Hat tip to @joscelinryan.bsky.social of @raynerfoundation.bsky.social who’s been saying the “wear what you want” for many years

There can be lots of gatekeeping in the cycling community so just remember that when it comes to biking there are only two rules: Wear what you want. Ride what you want.
