It’s time for episode 47 of the Hang 5 podcast with Rob Alton.
Growing up in the 80’s British BMX scene with healthy doses of UKBFA BMX comps, our guest caught an early interest in show business and chose that as a career. His bike took him around the world working for the likes of Cirque du Soleil, Costa cruises and variety shows. A few years back, he settled in Hungary and in search of an indoor spot, decided to open a flatland school and in turn worked with the Hungarian cycling federation to help the next generation of shredders. We talk practice, consistency, progression, injuries, earning money through your passion, coaching, federation support, the olympics dream, how to grow our sport and so much more.
