Chequamegon 40 - Urban | Lange

OffRoad InRoads X MFR

We're back for Episode 5 of OffRoad InRoads p/b Maxxis Factory Racing. In this episode we chat Chequamegon 40; the iconic 40 mile MTB race in the Northwoods of Wisconsin and the fourth stop of the Life Time Grand Prix.
First up on the podcast is Kelsey Urban, World Cup XC racer and van lifer. Kelsey races for Team 31 - Ibis and following an intense WC season, decided to join the fun on the US off-road scene and finish off her season with a muddy Chequamegon 40. We chat about the challenges of coming home to van life between travel in Europe, her WC season, her impressions of the weekend in Wisconsin and blending domestic racing with international WCs. I really enjoyed catching up with Kelsey after spending two weeks with her in Puerto Rico at the start of the season as she joined MFR for an early season race trip.
Bradyn Lange, men's winner of the Cheq 40, joins us for his first ever podcast interview. Bradyn is the youngest athlete in the LTGP and is now one of only two athletes that has won a race in the GP. We chat about how the race unfolded, his background in the sport and why he has been living that van life for the past few years but doesn't really 'gram about it.
We hope you enjoy the show! As always, thanks to Maxxis for the resources to produce this podcast, and to all of you for listening!
