Matt Thompson may be the biggest reason for the existence of Vital MTB. As one of my best friends, back in 2009, he suggested I contact Vital Media Network to see if they were interested in starting a mountain bike website. They had Vital MX and Vital BMX running successfully and I ran Littermag at the time. The rest is history. Matt is a staple fixture of the Colorado mountain biking community and has taken a life dedicated to downhill racing and turned it into a career as a trail builder with his company, Momentum Trail Concepts. We talk about his personal history, the Colorado race scene, developing municipal trail systems, head injury and DH superfandom in this special interview. -gordo
