Ella Conolly has been one of the breakthrough Enduro World Series racers in recent years. Coming from a cross country mountain bike background, Ella took the Under 21 World Enduro title in 2018 and has already stepped onto the podium in the elite field. We sat down ahead of the 2021 season for a chat. Ella is a rider who does things a little differently and has an infectious enthusiasm for the sport. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Ella Conolly.

You can follow Ella on Instagram @ella_conolly.

Muc-Off

There's no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes. Luckily Muc-Off have got you covered with their technical riding apparel range. They have used a proprietary material for the jacket and shorts, meaning that they are waterproof, breathable and have stretch. They are also super soft and don't rustle like most waterproof materials. Well worth checking out at muc-off.com.

The Muc-Off bike specific pressure washer literally makes washing your bike a blast. You have got the chance to win your very own pressure washer bundle by entering our competition before the end of June over at downtimepodcast.com/muc-off.

Downtime listeners can also get 20% off at muc-off.com. All you need to do is use the code DOWNTIME20 at the checkout. It's a single use code, so make the most of it (code does not apply to sale items).
