About this listen
Joining us this week on the Big Pete Podcast are Dan Whitby and Arran Powley from Bolddog FMX.
Dan shares how his over-competitiveness often gets the better of him — to the point he sometimes doesn’t even like himself! Starting out as a young lad working for Bolddog with no aspirations of becoming a freestyle motocross (FMX) rider, he was left with access to the FMX facility, over a weekend he taught himself several FMX tricks. When he told the team leader and owner, he wasn’t believed — until he demonstrated the tricks, and was thrown into performing FMX in a live show the following weekend.
Before long, Dan was gifted the FMX team and began developing new riders, while the team boss moved into stunt work for film and TV. This then opened doors for Dan and Arran to dress up and perform in major productions across the industry.
