In the first episode of ‘Rob Meets’ for 2020, Rob Warner travels to Llanfyllin, in North Wales, to catch up with multiple Downhill World Cup Winner, Tahnée Seagrave.
Tahnée gives Rob a tour of her HQ and explains why Northern Wales is better than Morzine as a base for downhill training and gives him an insight into her intense rivalry with childhood hero Rachel Atherton; one of downhill’s biggest stories. She reveals that her first racing victory was “not a win” as Atherton was missing, but her second win, when she beat everyone, was the big one: “I’d shown the world what I was capable of. And I learned the only thing I need to focus on is my ride and the clock.”
