Ben Deakin is one of the most colourful characters in the MTB scene – a former Royal Marines Commando who got shot while serving in Afghanistan and then found a new career as a pro mountain biker, after videos of him riding and partying struck a chord on social media. We catch up with The Deakinator at home in Dorset to hear the full story, chew the fat and ride some of his home trails.
