Episode 16 of The BMX Commentator Podcast is with one of my most requested guests, Ross Cullen of the Great Britain Cycling Team.

Ross tells us how it feels to be in the unique position of going to two Olympic Games and competing in neither one, what his goals are for the years leading up to LA28, and how his dad broke his neck when he was a kid which then led to him discovering BMX racing for the first time.

He also tells us why people think he's a robot, why British Cycling have told him to 'dial it back a bit' and how he ended up with a deal with BMW UK to drive a new car and motorcycle.

I've said on more than one occasion that Ross Cullen has been a professional BMXer since he was 12 years old, such is his committment to excellence and the fact he leaves no stone unturned to be the best he can be in all areas of his life.

Indeed, in the week after recording this podcast, I visited one of Ross's current sponsors to buy some clip shoes for my son. I told them that he was to be a guest on the podcast, and their response was that he was the nicest lad, professional to a 'T'and a pleasure to work with.

And the BMX Mums like him as well :-)

Ladies and gentleman, the much requested and long awaited interview with Ross Cullen... enjoy!
