Member of the Missouri thunder and rider of the Warden in the PBR Finals Andrew Alvidrez and PBR Bullfight and great bloke Adrian Roots join us for a yarn. After the PBR Finals, Rootsy has been taking a few of the riders around Australia to show them some of the great land and wind down before heading back to the US, taking them fishing, hunting and celebrating a great season. Andrew tells us all about his life in the states, growing up, learning the value of hard work and what switch flicked to make him want to be a bullrider. We discuss his ride on the Warden, how it went and some of his best high scoring rides in his career on some absolute weapons of bulls. To finish up, we discuss his lifestyle with his team, Missouri Thunder and the importance of mateship within it when choosing to travel to go bullriding and compete as much as possible. This episode was an absolute blast to hear even more about what makes a bullriders brain tick. Enjoy trendsetters!
