Life After Racing | Matt Simmonds

Matt Simmonds, Privateer Mtber
Matt Simmonds, Privateer athlete, ex-downhill racer and all round shredder met up with Live to Ride, deep in the Welsh woods, to film their newest episode.
 
Having spent lockdown maintaining and rebuilding his local trails, which he hopes to use as the venue for his newly established Pro Line MTB Coaching business, Matt put his Privateer 161 to good use and reintroduced himself to the flowy and bomb-track riddled trails he used to ride in his youth.
 
The result is worth watching.
“We’ve got the national which is obviously for the downhill guys but we have got some more flowy terrain for beginners and people getting into mountain biking. Everyone knows the last year and bit has been tricky for a lot of people and starting a new business was never going to be easy. I’m excited to get back out there now things are opening up again. We’ve got a few venues we can work from with different levels of riding, it’s quite exciting.” – Matt Simmonds
