Moving to a new place can be scary. Entering a new sport can be scarier, especially when everyone you're doing it with is already quite good at it.

Eric Olsen: Enduro Racer, Entrepreneur, Community Builder

I met Eric Olsen when Tom Morgan, one of the owners of Ibis Cycles, emailed me out of the blue and said "hey, this kid Eric is racing and is a neat guy and we want to help him with equipment, but through your shop."

Listen to our conversation about mountain bike racing, his business start-up Jank Components, our upcoming Tour De EWS trip, and more.
