Greg Minnaar’s career as a racer set the standard for Downhill Mountain Biking. Now, in his new role as Norco Race Division’s Team Director, he’s taking on a different kind of challenge – one that requires just as much precision, strategy, and technical expertise.
The Other Side of the Hill Episode 1 – The Transition from Racer to Team Director – Greg reflects on stepping away from racing and embracing his new role as Team Director, the challenges of leadership, and how his years of experience have shaped his approach to team management, as well as his thoughts thus far, three rounds into a Downhill World Cup campaign.
“Nothing like jumping in the deep end! After so many years between the tape, stepping into a support role has been a whole different challenge. But also one of the most fulfilling experiences of my career. From Managing the chaos to mentoring the next generation, The Other Side of the Hill is my journey into life after racing. Still on the mountain, just in a different position” Greg Minnaar.
