The jump from Junior to Elite pro is a difficult one, a jump which most can't make. Then there are others that take it in their stride, adjust to the new demands and thrive under the lifestyle. Moritz Mauss is set to do just that.

The young German joins UAE Team Emirates Gen Z for 2026, development team for UAE Team Emirates - XRG. Mortiz is packed with potential and is a fantastic person to go along with it. We chat about his development, adapting to the WorldTour level training and preparation, building his personal brand on social media, the behind-the-scenes work of the German Cycling Federation, and more.

We've heard many cyclists come to the sport from soccer/football, speed-skating, and running, but is Moritz the first to go pro with a fencing background? I think so!! And what's it like racing and training with the team and athletes so many kids dream about? Turns out it's pretty cool!

Kenna Pfeiffer is one of America's brightest young talents, and she's doing it in style!

Riding with Virginia's Blue Ridge - TWENTY28, Kenna brings speed, tenacity, grit, and vibes to the 2026 calendar. We chat about her development in cycling, the switch from a very promising speed-skating career, building her social media platform, and her appreciation for what USAC has given her and so many other riders.

Kenna gives some insight into the Virginia's Blue Ridge - TWENTY28 system, why they really are such a cool group, the success that comes from having good values, and why it's more of a family, rather than a team.

Cycling is a sport, game and passion. If it becomes too serious, what's the point?

Elly Hoskin, 2025 UCI Enduro World Champ, is keeping it light on her way to succeeding at the national and international level. Her personality, energy, and vibe are what make her a fan favourite and someone with a huge potential for the years to come. On this episode, we chat about developing the Enduro scene in Canada, and how we can translate that to international success, why Enduro is the "baby discipline" of gravity mountain biking, but yet the most relatable and enjoyable. We talk on how important it is to build the athlete-brand relationship, generating content and marketing for your partners, and where fans, media, and teams, can be better for the long-term success of the sport .
