Scott Hart, fanatic mountain biker, fierce competitor and one to always follow his instincts, shares how he went from humble Indiana roots to becoming one of the premier editorial voices of American mountain biking. While many of you may not know who Scott is, he and Ralf Hauser created decline magazine in the early 2000's. I had the privilege of working as a staffer at decline with Scott, Ralf and Mark Jordan (who's now at FOX) after freelancing for them. decline has since come and gone, but impact that magazine had on our community, specifically the gravity side of our family, is still evident today and that's largely because of Scott's voice and vision. His upbringing and experience as a struggling professional downhill and slalom racer with highlights like competing in the first Red Bull Rampage gave Scott the foundation and desire to make mountain biking look as appealing and rad to the masses as it really is. I hope this episode will inspire you to follow your instincts and pursue your passions in the face of risk.
