Bernard Kerr talks pay cuts, the return of skin suits, Red Bull Hardline Tasmania and more

Bernard Kerr drops by the studio slightly unplanned so, we decided to record a podcast!
On this episode of The Ride Companion Bernard talks about buying the BK Sport warehouse, wether DYFI is becoming the global hub of mountain biking and switching GoPro footage to hide lines. Bernard also opens up about taking a pay cut to keep the race team alive, testing jumps at Red Bull Hardline Tasmania, will skin suits make a return in 2024 and much more...

(Apologies for the slight audio issue. Blame Lada for moving a cable whilst sniffing out the new studio space)
