Confusing having fun on a bike with a job

In this episode I introduced what I'm doing here at athlete career development and at the end of the episode I talked about some athletes confused having fun riding their bike or racing with having a job as a professional athlete.

Talking points;

Do you have the drive to do the cold morning training rides?

Having to get up at 5:00 a.m. to do a 7:00 a.m. practice? Who wants to ride their bike at 7:00 a.m. in the cold?

Having semis and mains late at night. How many times have you went to the BMX track or the trails at 9:00 p.m. to go ride? "I do all the time said no one ever."

Those were my sentiments the last 2 years of being a bmx bike racer.
