Natasha Bradley Wins Her Way In | Bike 2026 | Natural Selection Tour

Listen out for Natasha Bradley. She came through Dream Ticket out of Torquay in the UK. She's semi-local in Queenstown these days. She is a riot on the bike. I mean, she's just... This is going to be a fun ride. She's wearing a mic. She's just a badass. Earning her spot through Dream Ticket, proving she has what it takes. Oh, so deep. Mate, my bike's out. Oh, no! Ah! This is amazing. She can do a job for us. I know. I'm just going to listen. I love it. Floating through here. Boost. Who needs? Was she saying, like, who needs the landing? Yeah. Ooh, ooh, ooh. Super deep. This is unreal. Oh, no. She's not going to shut up now, though, is she? She does need some oxygen. No need to wonder what's been going through her mind, huh? I did that with a bunch of sweets in my pocket. That's the last thing I was expecting her to say. What? Like, that's what's going through her mind, is I just realized I have candy in my pocket. That is one of the most entertaining competition ones I have ever seen in 30 years of sports broadcasting. That was so much fun. Take a bow, Natasha Bradley. I'm not sure if this is what she said, but at one point when she went long, I thought she just said, who needs? Like, who needs that landing? I'll land where I want. Now, how much boost was there on that final jump, though? Incredible flow. So, four-cross silver medalist two years in a row in 2018 and 2019 at the World Champs. Oh, I got the same as Porkadook. No way. Oh, boy. Yo. God, Natasha. To hear that she's enjoying herself, you know, like, there's something that just makes it aesthetically pleasing when you can tell somebody's having fun. That's kind of the point of this trail, isn't it? You can go down and flow down it, or you can go and get super tech and creative with it as well. It's background. It's supposed to be fun. It's got so many facets. Okay, we're into our top five now. Natasha Bradley on course again with that manual out of the start gate. Let's listen in. She can do our jogs for us, Cam. Oh, okay. Go slow as ****. Bit deep. Yeah, boy. If she's this good at commentary while she's riding... Oh, my God, so deep. Imagine how good she'll be in the booth. Chill the **** out. I want her to keep being on the course, but as soon as she's ready... Oh, my feet are like pedals. Chill. Into the *******... Oh, what? Go on. What is she doing? I like that. Built herself a new little run coming into the back of us. Yeah. Proper backdoor in this section. Oh, that was so intense. Oh, that was all over the shop. I survived. Pretty cool use of course there at the bottom. I like that. I did not see that coming. She's hands down my new favourite rider. Easy to like Natasha Bradley. What a cool person. But also, it just goes to show how hard it is to go slow enough for that drop at the top. You hear her coming in saying slow as f-bomb, trying to talk herself into hitting the brakes more, but you feel like you're going to tag. I love that gutter line. Yeah. Just why not? And then threading the needle between the features to get the line she wanted down at the bottom. Yeah. Rider five, Natasha Bradley. The run two is 41.50. That's 41.50. Moves into first place overall.
