This is another installment of our “Reviewing the Reviewer” series, where we ask various BLISTER reviewers questions about their backgrounds and gear preferences to give you a more complete picture of the people behind our reviews. And since we like to rank & review things around here, we also give a score to each of our reviewers’ answers, then come up with a cumulative review grade for each of them.
In the hot seat today is mountain bike reviewer, David Golay, who shares how he went from playing sports in upstate New York, to researching metal alloys in Australia, to reviewing for BLISTER, and he shares a phenomenal story starring Jed Yeiser (of previous Blister podcast episodes fame).
Check out the video version of this conversation on our YouTube Channel.
Amen on that BB, internal cable routing, and changing standards. I would have given you a 10.
Still anxiously waiting for the Sam Shaheen episode!
Where at Crystal did David eat it?
how was the sirenator 5000 not the dumbest thing you’ve ever done?
That was a stroke of genius.
