This Petervary interview is absolutely bollocks.
'I ask people who might want to do Tour Divide: would you do it if you weren't a dot on the map? Would you do if you weren't on social media?'
Which he says in an interview on a fucking podcast! Would Petervary do it if he weren't on social media and rode the most high profile off-road 'races' in the world? Would he continue to do it if he didn't somehow earn his living from being a influencer? He also completely dodges the question of how he affords to ride multiple events in the same calender year.
He questions the motives of other riders who want to ride their bike on someone else's dime in exchange for talking about their products. It's his whole fucking business model! His astounding lack of self-awareness washes away any credibility.
