BACK BONE ZONE PODCAST

Join Back Bone BMX co-owner Tyson Jones-Peni on the Back Bone Zone, our very own BMX podcast.

I am attempting to delve deeper into topics that may not typically be addressed in regular BMX podcasts. There are so many things that I think about that relates to the world of BMX, that might not be about BMX directly.

By bringing you regular solo podcast episodes and thinking through them on the fly, I can begin to explore topics that might otherwise be overlooked.

With an emphasis on Australian BMX content, I will always try to dive deeper into the awesome world of BMX.
I hope you enjoy the podcast. - Tyson

What I learned about BMX from training Muay Thai

What I learned about BMX from training Muay Thai

I take on the challenge of speaking with someone completely out of BMX, by speaking with an expert in their field - Kieran Walsh.

Kieran is the owner of one of Australia's most prestigious Muay Thai gyms, Muay U, and their head coach. Through going to Kieran's gym, I have learnt a lot about the positive aspects of a very similar sport/culture/lifestyle to BMX.

Chris Doyle laid the blueprint as a professional BMX rider for 20 years - Back Bone Zone ep. 43 - Back Bone BMX

Chris Doyle laid the blueprint as a professional BMX rider for 20 years - Back Bone Zone ep. 43

Chris Doyle is without a doubt, one of the most legendary BMX riders on the planet - especially so in the trail world. Chris has had a career in BMX that has spanned two decades.

I wanted to know what got him there, but also how he was able to move from professional BMXer, to finding a new career in real estate.

Chris is one of my all-time favourite riders, so it was amazing to have the opportunity to speak with him on this and much more, including one of his fondest memories - ACT Jam.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on any of the topics on this, or any episode.
