Ask Joey
How would you describe yourself as an athlete?
I started racing DH at age 13, transitioned to enduro at age 22, and then quit racing and began
doing large adventure rides and bikepacking trips at age 24. I love having the base skills set from
racing in my past as it couples nicely with some of the more ambitious and high alpine adventures.
Now, I see the bike as a beautiful way to see and experience the world!
If you could spend a day with any other SMITH athlete, who would it be and why?
Sage Cattabriga-Alosa. Absolute legend! Plus I hear he rips on a bike.
What is your biggest fear?
My biggest fear is probably just losing momentum. It feels so good to keep things rolling!
