Video: DirtTV: Beyond the Bike: Andrew Neethling

DirtTV's new series goes beyond race day to explore what drives World Cup racer Andrew Neethling to compete at the top level year after year.

We see World Cup racers for 3-5 minutes less than a dozen times a year going at full tilt, race pace. That leaves not just hours and minutes but days and months in between those concentrations of effort.

The first in a new series from DirtTV takes a look at what happens Beyond the Bike and what drives racer’s to compete every year and push their limits to climb the podium steps.

To kick things off in a timely fashion we take a look at South African Andrew Neethling to find out what drives Needles/Rad Man forward each season. Stick the kettle on/open a beer and get into the mind of a rider that has been at the top level for longer than you would expect.
