The OTB Podcast

Rae Morrison joins us this week as we take a dive back through her very nice career racing on the enduro circuit over the last 10 years. From the classic humble kiwi beginnings of putting everything she had into going racing as a privateer to spending a number of years as a factory racer with Giant/Liv, theres no doubt that she gave it everything. After announcing her retirement from full time racing at the end of the 2024 season, Rae is by no means done! Tune in to find out her exciting plans for 2025 and the future.
