The end of the season is here and we’re in Mont-Sainte-Anne for the final round of the Whoop Mountain Bike World Series for 2024. Join me and Chris Kilmurray as we reflect back on the chaos of Loudenvielle and the holidays that followed. We discuss the iconic MSA track, some riders to look out for and dig a little into some of the potential changes for 2025. So sit back, hit play and listen to this Mont-Sainte-Anne pre-race show with Chris Kilmurray.

Maxxis is synonymous with performance and racing and is the winningest brand in the history of World Cup and EWS racing. No matter where or how you ride, Maxxis has the tyres for you with a wide range of tread patterns, casing and compound options. They also have a brand new intermediate tyre for you to check out, the new High Roller.

You can check out the entire range of Maxxis tyres over at Maxxis.com, and find the tyres at your local Maxxis dealer. You can also give them a follow on instagram where they are @maxxisbike.
