In June 2020, I had the pleasure of joining Vital MTB’s “The Inside Line” podcast to discuss my journey as a mountain biking “storyteller” (their word, not mine).
Over the past two decades, I’ve worn many hats in the mountain biking industry—photographer, writer, filmmaker, magazine editor, creative producer, and product tester for various media outlets and bike brands.
During the podcast, we delved into my experiences creating two feature-length films that explore the journeys of mountain bikers within our sport.
We also touched on my Reno-Tahoe-area commercial photography and film production company, Ryan Cleek Productions.
If you’re interested in the behind-the-scenes stories of mountain biking and the creative processes involved, you can listen to the full episode on Vital MTB’s website.

I’m grateful to Vital MTB for the opportunity to share my story and to everyone who has supported my work throughout the years.
