It’s been a minute, but MTB Ben is finally back at it.
This episode is a “getting caught up with Ben” episode. What’s been going on since we last heard from him on New England Dirt - well for one, there is a slightly updated name - NE Dirt, and for two, the overall effort of NE Dirt has grown.
Listen now for updates on both what’s in store for NE Dirt, the rides Ben’s done this year, the events, and his ventures into bikepacking.
