ABOUT THE EPISODE
Santa Cruz first caught my attention years ago through their involvement with the Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship, and the other events they have been involved with that also included an aspect of trail work. Then in November of 2019 Santa Cruz rolled out the “Paydirt Fund”. This really caught my attention and I’m sure others as well. After all, how many companies are giving out One Million Dollars over 3 years with no geographical limitations, and very few other limitations?
This brought me to Katie Zaffke who is the Paydirt Fund Program Coordinator. This is one of the most inspiring interviews I had the opportunity to take part in yet. Tune in to learn more about the Santa Cruz and the Paydirt fund.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
PEARL iZUMi has caught my attention as a company that is making great strides in telling stories about people and communities. They have a series called “Underexposed” high lighting communities that people may not associate mountain biking with right away and bringing attention to the. PEARL iZUMi also has a “Dig Series” where they highlight communities that are using trails and mountain biking to revitalize their economy.
In this show we speak with Joshua Lawton both a content creator and story teller for PEARL iZUMi. Joshua came to PEARL iZUMi from IMBA where he brought both the background and understanding trails and the advocacy that goes into creating trails doesn’t always get the attention they deserve.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
In 2018, ORA Trails, in partnership with the City of La Crosse Parks, was awarded an IMBA Trail Accelerator Grant, that provided planning services for a 5.5-mile trail system within Grandad Bluff Park in the City of La Crosse, Wisconsin. The goal was to provide trails in an underutilized park that had rogue and social use issues. Aside from a great view from this bluff, there were no other recreational amenities offered. Now the system has been completed and legalized. We discuss the timeline of how this played out.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEStarting off a new season of the podcast and coming off of what was the 4th Anniversary of the show this week, we look to the future. And not that fairy-dream world in which we all get a vaccine, but the real world, the uncertain one we’re all being forced to get used to. Are you still there? Are you still advocating for trails? How have your priorities shifted? What’s on your mind?
About Brent:
Brent is a Trail Builder with the North Shore Mountain Bike Association and focuses on the Upper and Lower Griffen Trails on Mount Fromme. Through his work with Trailforks he’s come to discover the world of advocacy beyond just his home in North Vancouver, and serving as the inspiration to create Front Lines MTB.

ABOUT THE EPISODETHIS EPISODE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY JENSONUSA
Guitar Ted and Andy get together for something a little special. In this episode, in addition to the usual segments, they chat with Dave Pryor from unPAved of the Susquehanna River Valley. Dave shares plenty of thoughts on where they are at for this year (be sure to check out the full informational press release below….). Listen in to get a little taste of what Dave and the event are all about.
---------
OFFICIAL unPAved INFORMATION PRESS RELEASEFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
unPAved of the Susquehanna River Valley
Sunday, October 11, 2020 in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania
This year, unPAved will take 2 different paths.
Announcing the plans (yes, plural) for 2020’s unPAved of the Susquehanna River Valley:
One of Cyclingnews’ “Top-10 Gravel Races in the U.S.A.” will happen this year, on October 11th, though will be significantly different with a reduced field size, eliminating the mass-start and DONEpaved Finisher Party, and including a significant amount of protocols in place to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Some highlights:
Last year, Kelly Catale (Seven Cycles) returned to her college town for the event, and left as the 2019 unPAved Women’s Whoopie-Pie Winner. She’s planning to come back to defend her title: “I am so excited to participate in this re-imagined version of unPAved that will enable me to stay safe during this time while enjoying one of my favorite places to ride!”
THE unPAved WEEKEND CHALLENGEA second option for people who want to ride unPAved, though maybe not all of it, is by spending a weekend riding the beautiful farm roads & big forest hills, and taking on a special challenge over two of the best parts of the unPAved course: “The Proper Parts” and “The Difference!” This challenge is open from August 1st through October 11th, and open to anybody visiting the region, and willing & able to ride the courses unsupported.
Riders can take this challenge on any weekend between August 1st and October 11th by riding solo, or with their teammates, friends or family (practicing best COVID-19 protocols, of course). The Susquehanna River Visitors Bureau has worked with a number of hotels in the region on special weekend packages—complete with unPAved Swag Bags and special offers from sponsors when they check in. Proceeds will benefit a variety of local charities, as well as the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Cycling League.
Digital routes will be provided that are marked with water and facilities that are available and any nearby food stops. Riders can start & finish their ride from anywhere, as long as the Strava Segment on course is completed. Riders will need to post their rides to Strava, RideWithGPS or similar online service that’s visible to event staff. A leaderboard will be posted for bragging rights, but all prizes from sponsors will be random.
THOUGHTS ON THE CHANGES“Fortunately for unPAved, we have had the time and opportunities to talk with government officials, epidemiologists, our participants and the local community to create a different event for this very different year,” said Dave Pryor, unPAved’s Promoter. “Pennsylvania has done an incredible job mitigating the curve, and it appears that outdoor recreation is one of the safest things people can do at this time—with extra precautions to take care of each other. We are also well-aware there are a number of ways that the event will need to change again, or even be cancelled as we continue to live through a pandemic. Both the local and gravel communities have been amazing to be a part of through this and we will all be in constant communication with both—because that’s how communities move forward.”
“The Susquehanna River Valley Visitors Bureau is proud to be the Title Sponsor of unPAved of the Susquehanna River Valley,” said Andrew Miller, Executive Director. “For the last two years we’ve had the distinct pleasure and excitement to introduce and promote the Susquehanna River Valley as a ‘must-do’ destination for gravel cyclists from the United States and Canada. unPAved adventure cyclists are living their best lives when they come to the Susquehanna River Valley and have praised the event and the destination. Their experiences and joy with unPAved has exceeded our expectations. 2020 will be a different event in a very different world but the adventure, friendly competition, beauty of the Susquehanna River Valley and the joy of gravel cycling will now and always remain the same.”
“Salsa Cycles is thrilled to support another year of Pennsylvania dirt riding in the Susquehanna River Valley,” said Lindsay Beltchenko, Marketing Manager of Salsa Cycles (the official bikes & frames of unPAved). “Despite the challenges unPAved has been faced with due to the pandemic, they have put their best foot forward with amending their event plan to provide a safe and fun gravel experience for all.”
Along with the Susquehanna River Valley Visitors Bureau and Salsa Cycles, unPAved sponsors include Stan’s NoTubes (official wheels & sealant), GU Energy Labs (official hydration), Floyd’s of Leadville (official CBD recovery products), Ritchey Logic, Voler Apparel, Purple Lizard Maps, Nittany Mountain Works, R.E.Load Bags, Philly Bike Expo, and Chamois Butt’r.

Todd Poquette of 906 Adventure Team Show Page
ABOUT THE EPISODE
Todd is always a force in the event world. He brings a can-do effort, a positive attitude, and a will to keep moving forward. Todd joins Ben to chat about the current atmosphere, the pandemic, events, and other life things. Todd has been a big supporter of all things Mountain Bike Radio over the years, so be sure to check out what he has going on up around Marquette, Michigan.
ABOUT THE 906 ADVENTURE TEAM:
"U.P. native and outdoor enthusiast Todd Poquette formed 906 Adventure Team in 2014 hoping to fill a void: While there were race teams and a handful of group rides, there weren’t any groups welcoming youth or adults new to the bike scene. At the same time, he learned through youth programs and event direction that people weren’t drawn to mountain biking just to compete. For many the allure was deeper, more personal – about adventure.
We’re not coaching for a win Tuesday night, we’re coaching skills for life
Big wins and difficult losses create lifetime memories and growth. What can kids truly take away from a championship season? We want them to prioritize effort, embrace the failures, develop positive habits, and focus on the journey. A win on Tuesday night is fun – and can provide some great stories to tell – but the habits they develop and the work they learn to enjoy will serve them down the road more than the win itself. There’s a certain level of maturity needed to view setbacks as opportunities, and through cycling we are helping kids develop a way to do that."

Todd Sadow of Epic Rides Show Page
ABOUT THE EPISODE
Todd Sadow has spent the better part of his life dedicated to having a great time on a bike. From the humble beginnings of a 24 hour party in the Arizona desert, to a nationwide series, he’s always maintained a down-to-earth attitude. That’s why I like having him on Mountain Bike Radio. In this episode, we chat about the current world of race directing, what Epic Rides is up to, and more.
ABOUT EPIC RIDES: “Epic Rides is a passionate group of individuals who care about sharing the outdoors from the saddle of a bike. We want as many people to ride bikes in this world as possible. Whether it’s to go to the store, to drop the kids at school, or to pursue fresh air and adventure trailside, we know a bike ride (no matter how long) does wonders for the soul.
Our events are a platform for personal achievement, camaraderie, challenge and life driving motivation (and satisfaction). Maybe even more notably, they are designed solely to deliver happiness to all involved while spreading the gospel of mountain biking.”

Hey All!
I know it's a wild time and I want to thank you for all the support of Mountain Bike Radio.
I want to invite you to another project I've been working on with my good friend Scott. We're two normal guys who are taking on some new life learning through the outdoors. If you're interested in things throughout the outdoors and off the bike, check out Woods 2 Ridges anywhere you listen to podcasts, YouTube, and on Instagram (Woods2Ridges). This will not be a regular Mountain Bike Radio show. We are in what I'd call a foundation phase of things, so you'll get the process, learning, and how the sausage is made (figuratively and literally)...
So, please check it out and if you know anyone who would be interested, please let them know.
Thank you, Ben
---------------
ABOUT WOODS 2 RIDGES"From the woods of Wisconsin to the mountains of Colorado, longtime friends, podcasters, and entrepreneurs Scott Jones and Ben Welnak spend their time learning how to live differently off the land and on the internet! There will be tons of epic failures, ideas worth considering, and education for anyone else looking for ways to do life just a little bit differently."

The Driftless Area is a region of the Upper Midwest comprised of SW Wisconsin, NE Iowa, NW Illinois and SE Minnesota. Known for its steep jagged blufftops, massive rock outcroppings, rivers, and spring-fed streams, this area provides excellent topography for nearly all things outdoors. Spared from the glaciers of the last Ice Age, the steep peaks and valleys were formed.
While mostly unknown, the Driftless Region has a rich history in Mountain Biking spanning back to the mid 80’s. Paired with seemingly endless miles of paved and gravel roads, this area is a cyclists dream.
While cycling may be a large part of this show, we will also bring you the various aspects that make this area great.

ABOUT THE EPISODETHIS EPISODE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY JENSONUSA
Guitar Ted sits down with Marty Larson from The Heywood at Impact Coffee Bar in Decorah, Iowa to discuss The Heywood, which is planned for May 16, 2020. Listen in as they chat all about the ride, the area, and why you should head over to Northfield in May.
What is The Heywood? “The Heywood is a gravel road ride taking place in the rolling countryside south of the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro plex. We call it Deep South Metro. You may know it as Northfield. Northfield is a college town of approximately 20,000 people. We have a thriving downtown with cafés, bakeries, and lots of stores with actual personality.
Rather hang out in the woods? We’ve got that covered too. Nerstrand State Park and Caron Park are a ten-minute drive from our start line. Both are on route even! In other words, bring your family! There’s lots to do.”

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Jay sits down with Ben during lunch to discuss what makes the Park City area special and share what the Park City Point to Point is all about.
The Point to Point course is a true point 2 point. Thanks to the plethora of trails, you will never be on the same trail twice. You will be riding singletrack for over 90% of the race (that’s a lot of 1-track) and the total distance is 75 miles with around 12,000′+- of climbing, all while traveling through two of the country’s premier mountain resorts. It will challenge your mental prowess, yet it will have you grinning from ear to ear.

ABOUT THE EPISODEJosh is back with a second episode! He sits down with Jed Olson. Jed is full of life experiences, experiences around the La Crosse area, trails, parks, public land, and digging dirt. They chat about some of the history of the city property around Grandad’s Bluff and what it’s been and where it’s going. This episode gives you an idea of some of the interesting people involved in the area trails.
About Jed:
Jed plays in the dirt all day as the owner of VeloCity Projects. He has been back and forth across the globe following one adventure after another by bike, board, or boots. When it came time to raise a family, he and his wife, Kelly, paused just long enough to plant a few roots in the Driftless Area, and then started the adventures all over again, this time with kids in tow. La Crosse and the surrounding area offer all the recreation possibilities they could ever ask for accompanied by a warm welcoming sense of community. Jed loves that he can pick his kids up from school, hit the woods, slopes, or water, and still have dinner on the table before his wife gets home from work. By serving on the ORA board, he has an opportunity to improve and highlight this beautiful place he calls home.

----------- ABOUT DRIFTLESS DIRTDriftless Dirt is based out of La Crosse, WI which is nearly centered in the Driftless Area. The Driftless Area is a region of the Upper Midwest comprised of SW Wisconsin, NE Iowa, NW Illinois and SE Minnesota. Known for its steep jagged blufftops, massive rock outcroppings, rivers, and spring-fed streams, this area provides excellent topography for nearly all things outdoors. Spared from the glaciers of the last Ice Age, the steep peaks and valleys were formed.
While mostly unknown, the Driftless Region has a rich history in Mountain Biking spanning back to the mid 80’s. Paired with seemingly endless miles of paved and gravel roads, this area is a cyclists dream.
While cycling may be a large part of this show, we will also bring you the various aspects that make this area great.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Dirt Rag Magazine - https://dirtragmag.com/
----------
ABOUT DIRT FEST
Maurice and Elaine Tierney started Dirt Rag in 1989, creating a magazine that provided an inclusive forum where readers shared their stoke for the riding, culture, and lifestyle of mountain biking. After having a great time at the legendary Jim Thorpe Mountain Bike Weekend, the pair decided that Dirt Rag was in a position to translate the magazine’s in-print stoke to an in-person “gathering of the tribe.”
The first edition of Dirt Fest took place in 1991 at Camp Soles, a YMCA youth camp east of Pittsburgh. The original event was decidedly chill. There was no vendor expo bristling with the bleeding edge of bicycle technology. Demo rides amounted to swapping bikes with a newfound friend. There was a lake, a bonfire, and a bicycle polo field. Nighttime entertainment consisted of an attendee strumming a guitar at the group bonfire—a far cry from The Earthtones jamming for a circus tent full of partying mountain bikers.

About FReD: FReD (Fork Retention Device) is produced using a non traditional method called 3D printing. This eliminates many of the design restrictions that come along with injection molding. It also allows us to make production changes and offer one-off versions exclusively produced in the US. It is a time-intensive process, each FReD takes approximately 12 hours to complete. We think that 3D printing is the future of end part production and is becoming more popular as technology advances. Take a look at the brief overview of the process below.

ABOUT DIRT FEST
Maurice and Elaine Tierney started Dirt Rag in 1989, creating a magazine that provided an inclusive forum where readers shared their stoke for the riding, culture, and lifestyle of mountain biking. After having a great time at the legendary Jim Thorpe Mountain Bike Weekend, the pair decided that Dirt Rag was in a position to translate the magazine’s in-print stoke to an in-person “gathering of the tribe.”
The first edition of Dirt Fest took place in 1991 at Camp Soles, a YMCA youth camp east of Pittsburgh. The original event was decidedly chill. There was no vendor expo bristling with the bleeding edge of bicycle technology. Demo rides amounted to swapping bikes with a newfound friend. There was a lake, a bonfire, and a bicycle polo field. Nighttime entertainment consisted of an attendee strumming a guitar at the group bonfire—a far cry from The Earthtones jamming for a circus tent full of partying mountain bikers.

ABOUT DIRT FEST
Maurice and Elaine Tierney started Dirt Rag in 1989, creating a magazine that provided an inclusive forum where readers shared their stoke for the riding, culture, and lifestyle of mountain biking. After having a great time at the legendary Jim Thorpe Mountain Bike Weekend, the pair decided that Dirt Rag was in a position to translate the magazine’s in-print stoke to an in-person “gathering of the tribe.”
The first edition of Dirt Fest took place in 1991 at Camp Soles, a YMCA youth camp east of Pittsburgh. The original event was decidedly chill. There was no vendor expo bristling with the bleeding edge of bicycle technology. Demo rides amounted to swapping bikes with a newfound friend. There was a lake, a bonfire, and a bicycle polo field. Nighttime entertainment consisted of an attendee strumming a guitar at the group bonfire—a far cry from The Earthtones jamming for a circus tent full of partying mountain bikers.

ABOUT THE EPISODEMatt breaks out a good rant when they discuss some of what we’re creating for the future. Matt also confirms that 650b x 47 tires are not good. Pens are important. So are breaks that continue working. Is racing breeding monsters? Don’t do this… with this tire. What happens when tires explode with 12 ounces of sealant in them? How many psi can customers get their tires up to? Matt may be shitting on the manual machine – he explains. Kenny shares the best thing possible.

ABOUT THE EPISODEMTB Ben is up to something new. He is home with his son, August, during the week and he’s having some fun documenting some of their adventures. This is the introduction episode. We don’t know where this will go and you’re definitely along for the ride. But, in this episode, you can already expect some reflection, lessons learned, and lessons not learned about playing with the microphone. Hopefully you can relate and we look forward to you following along. Thanks!
Do you have an idea for MTB Ben, the Backyard Boys, and/or New England Dirt? If so, let Ben know at nedirt@mountainbikeradio.com.

ABOUT BORDERLANDS
Joining Québec, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, the Borderlands are home to the Northeast’s most exciting and diverse mountain biking — fast and flowy singletrack, old school technical downhill, berms, bridges, and pump tracks in endless northern forests.

They spend some time digging into it all, discussing Guitar Ted’s new C.O.G. 100, and more gravel-ish things. Have a listen.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEJoin an exploration of a community with both a multi-use Trail Association and a Mountain Bike Club. Brent’s guest is Daniel Cammiade of the Nature Trails Society in Victoria, British Columbia, located in the Southern end of Vancouver Island. They discuss whether an organization should identify as a Bike Club or a Trail Association, and how best to deal with a Land Manager that, simply put, isn’t interested in allowing mountain bike access.
About Brent:
Brent is a Trail Builder with the North Shore Mountain Bike Association and focuses on the Upper and Lower Griffen Trails on Mount Fromme. Through his work with Trailforks he’s come to discover the world of advocacy beyond just his home in North Vancouver, and serving as the inspiration to create Front Lines MTB.

ABOUT THE EPISODEThis is a double episode from the depths of New England! Be sure to check for the follow up episode after this one. Enjoy!
In Episode 13, Ben sits down with Jen Barden & Jen Duby from Bikekitz and Jane LeMasurier from Kingdom Cycling & Experiences. They discuss the importance of building women’s specific events like Aquariana to help introduce women to the sport of cycling.
During this weekend’s event, many women, who have never met before are out to try new things, including fat biking. Jen D., Jen B., and Jane talk about the experience so far with the weekend, how the came up with the idea, and what it means to them to have now stepped up as leaders in the Upper Valley region of Vermont and New Hampshire for women’s outdoor pursuits.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE“Back in the Shack” is a mini series of discussions in a fun, unique format. The same old sit downs get a little boring, so Ben is bringing some people into his ice fishing tent and asking them ten questions. You get some different discussions from a unique setting. Whether they catch fish is up to the mood of the fish! In this episode, bike industry veteran/first Back in the Shack guest/huge Pearl Jam fan, Joe Vadeboncoeur, gets in the shack for his first ice fishing experience and answers ten questions.

ABOUT JOE
Joe lived in Texas as a kid and went to college there as well. But, when his girlfriend/future wife (Liz) decided to go to school in Boulder, he joined her there in 1982. He raced road bikes (wasn’t very good), and Liz went to school. A few jobs later, Joe and Liz moved to Park City, Utah and he went to work for Trek as an outside sales rep. At that point, Joe’s road biking life was ending, and he’s been primarily a mountain biker ever since.
That move and sales rep position lead to a job in product management at Trek, where Joe was the first Gary Fisher product manager after Trek bought the brand. He then ran all of product development and marketing for about 15 years at Trek. Joe also started all the Trek race teams that are in existence today, and was the unfortunate soul that had to tell Lance Armstrong that Trek could not continue to sponsor him. His final position at Trek was managing the direct retail stores around the world and, after nearly 30 years, he left Trek in January of 2018. Joe and Liz moved to Seeley, Wisconsin, where he started his own consulting business, GoodHeart Solutions (GoodHeartsolutions.com – Good Heart is the literal translation of my last name). He specializes in helping others with development in their business and is the guy that you call when you cannot figure out how to get your business beyond its current level. Working in your business is not the same as working on your business. Joe loves living in the Northwoods of Wisconsin, because it is all about outside activities and he can combine his love of doing outdoor things with his business. He is on the board of the local mountain bike organization, Chequamegon Area Mountain Bike Association (CAMBA), which manages about 100 miles of singletrack in the area. He is also involved in putting on the first enduro race in the area. Joe’s excited because he gets to work with so many other people who are passionate about similar pursuits and that there is so much opportunity with everything up here in the Northwoods.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEGreig Gjerdalen is faculty with the school of Outdoor Recreation Management at Capilano University in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. Greig is currently studying how mountain bikers interact with nature and he’s asking: “Is nature merely scenery and therefore more of a backdrop for outdoor recreation pursuits than the center of our relational immersion?” Grieg shares his research and some ideas on what Trail Associations can do to increase a riders relationship with their natural surroundings.
About Brent:
Brent is a Trail Builder with the North Shore Mountain Bike Association and focuses on the Upper and Lower Griffen Trails on Mount Fromme. Through his work with Trailforks he’s come to discover the world of advocacy beyond just his home in North Vancouver, and serving as the inspiration to create Front Lines MTB.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEMTB Ben sets up in the base lodge at Highland Mountain Bike Park and is joined by Dave Smutok, VP of Business Development, and James Patterson, Trail Crew Director. They have taken an interesting approach to winter and fat biking. Owning and operating the country’s first dedicated lift-served mountain bike park, there is no skiing operation to focus on during the winter. But, being in New England, they still get a ton of snow. SO… why not build an epic fat biking destination out of their downhill and xc trail network! Listen in as they discuss winter at the bike park, the Winter Woolly event, fatbikes, and more.

ABOUT OVEJA NEGRA BIKEPACKING:
Since our start in 2012 we’ve been manufacturing top shelf bikepacking gear in the Upper Arkansas Valley of Colorado. Born in a 300 square foot hole in the wall shop in the old mining town of Leadville, we’ve since moved our operation down valley to the river town of Salida, CO. Every bag that bears our name is manufactured by a small team of dedicated and talented sewers right here in our Salida shop. We’re committed not only to manufacturing in the United States, but doing so with as many domestically sourced materials as possible. Beyond our ethos of domestic manufacturing, quality is king at Oveja Negra. We are obsessive about the details and keep a close eye on every product, enabling our customers to focus on the adventure at hand.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEThe episode opens on a dark note: this episode was recorded on December 2nd, the day that Paul Sherwen died of a heart attack. Paul Sherwen was a long time on air personality for the Tour de France, and while we all liked to poke fun at him, the man taught us all a lot about castles, group riding, racing dynamics, and much more. I hope this show brings you half the joy that his coverage of the Tour brought me – Matt.

About this episode
The final episode of 2018 is hosted by Rocky Blondin, past guest and President of the Fraser Valley Mountain Bikers Association. Rocky has a adapted his two part blog post called: “So You Want To Be a Trail Builder?“. He not only goes through his process of getting involved but also the many steps that someone new to trail building can take. For those of you who are already out there digging and advocating, I think you’ll enjoy a shared experience and perhaps this episode will be a “where to begin” for those looking to get more involved in their communities.
About Brent:
Brent is a Trail Builder with the North Shore Mountain Bike Association and focuses on the Upper and Lower Griffen Trails on Mount Fromme. Through his work with Trailforks he’s come to discover the world of advocacy beyond just his home in North Vancouver, and serving as the inspiration to create Front Lines MTB.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

———–
From the North Shore NEMBA Facebook group:
“What North Shore NEMBA is all about: The area north of Boston has a number of state parks and conservation properties that are terrific for mountain biking. We enjoy these trails by scheduling rides for different ability levels, organizing trail maintenance events, running mountain bike skills clinics, and enabling fellow bikers to find a wider biking community.
We are determined to make sure the trails are kept open for, and used responsibly by, all trail users. We take a broad view of what trail accessibility is all about, as shown by our chapter’s financial commitment to the ‘Vietnam’ land purchase. We regularly convene chapter meetings to share information and keep our priorities in focus.
When you join the North Shore chapter, you can stay in touch with everything that’s happening by joining our NEMBA email list. Our group’s email list and web site serve as the primary means of communication for the North Shore chapter. They allow members to discuss and collaborate on chapter activities – ride scheduling, trail maintenance, access issues and problems, or other matters of interest to the group.
Where we ride: Major state parks used by mountain bike riders in the North Shore area are Harold Parker, Bradley Palmer/Willowdale, and Georgetown/Rowley. Lynn Woods, Dogtown in Gloucester, and various other smaller properties are also popular with our members. Riders from the chapter area also work with the Greater Boston chapter to provide Bike Patrols in the Boston area, monitoring trail use (and abuse) and assisting anybody in need on the trails. Of course, we also take the opportunity to join in other NEMBA rides and events no matter where they take place.
What we do: North Shore NEMBA has a number of different programs in which members can get involved, including: -Trail maintenance events at Harold Parker, Bradley Palmer, Willowdale, and Georgetown/Rowley state parks. -Organized group rides. These are posted in “SingleTracks”, on our NorthShore email list, and/or on the NEMBA ride forum. -The season-ending bash called the “Wicked Ride of the East”. There is a great deal of logistical support needed to set up, run, and clean up after this charitable event which regularly draws 200 or so bikers to Harold Parker State Park. -Beginner’s clinics to help neophytes learn (and help some veterans brush up on) trail skills. This is a great way to meet fellow bikers and try new challenges.

ABOUT THIS EPISODETaylor was nice enough to carve out some time to catch up with Matt post 24 Hour Worlds in Scotland. Overall his travel was much smoother and driving easier than Kait experienced, but it was still a big deal just toeing the line. Tune in to hear the buildup, what kinda of training he did to get ready, and some of the plans for 2019 and 2020. Tune in to hear how someone so fast has stayed so humble.

I ride a Niner RKT w/ the 100m Fox 32sc, I have open mode adjustment, rebound and air pressure I can tune, but the Shockwiz suggests more tuning options. Is there a way to fake what I don't have? If not what should I focus on to get a better tune? (It's ok to use my question and name on air) - Lemmy Eaterbochs, Mobeetie, Texas”

ABOUT THIS EPISODEThis is your fall double header. The first half is JRA business as usual. Kenny built a new bar bike, Matt put a longer air spring in the Rocky Mountain BC90, and Andrea has been elk hunting. That leads to the second half of the show. The second half is all about Andrea's first elk hunt, so if that isn't your thing, maybe tuning it to the last half isn't in your favor. ------------

ABOUT THIS EPISODEThe normal crew is together for a show filled with listener questions about suspension. Andrea starts the show off with cliffhanger, Matt has a big bike on loan, and Kenny is loving his Stumpjumper. This is a great, fun show that runs on the long side due to tackling a ton of tech about suspension. If you ride rigid or your eyes glaze over at the mention of low speed compression – this may not be the show for you.
SHOW DONATIONS-Chris Harrod of California gave $5 with note: Thanks for all the effort you guys put into the show. I know how much work goes into recording a podcast weekly. -Chris – From Northern Californiaasdf -Logan Mullen of Ohio gave $10 with question: Hi friends! I’ve been listening to every show for about a year now and am finally got around to saying thanks for being awesome. I also have a questions and a comment about my 2017 Diamondback Release 3. Comment: a listener recently asked about the carbon Release (I think the 4C and 5C replaced the Release 3 in 2018), and I wanted to add my two cents. I love my Release 3 except that the paint scratches really easily. The wheel set is DB house brand but I have had absolutely no issues with them in a year of riding, and the rest of the spec is awesome for the money. Question: I just had the Guide RS brakes on this bike bled for the first time by my LBS because the brakes got really spongy, like levers almost touching the bars, after one season of riding straight from the factory. The bleed helped a little but they still feel way too spongy. LBS said they could call SRAM for me but they weren’t sure what the problem was. Have you ever encountered this problem with Guide RS brakes? The LBS doesn’t do much high end mountain bike work, but I went to them because they are a block from my house. Maybe I should call SRAM myself, or maybe get them bled again at a shop that sees more mountain bikes and hydraulic brakes? Lack of shop support is one of those drawbacks of buying a direct to consumer bike I guess. Never change, Logan from Ohio (yea it’s not Salida but the riding here is actually a lot better than you might think!)-Jonathan Kidwell of Maryland gave $25 with note: If I had a time machine, I would go to the future and have a smile on my face because of all the amazing Matt rants I was lucky enough to hear. Keep up the good work and thank you all for the honest assessment of what’s on the market.-Jarid Colucci of New Jersey gave $100 -Braden McGuire of British Columbia gave $25 with note: This is for Andrea to buy the most powerful Marijuana edible she can find, then eat it right before recording a show.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEThe show starts off with a long winded discussion about what is a cocktail, what is a mixed drink, and the robot uprising begins. Tune in to hear the difference between them and how The More You Know thing maybe worked (probably not).
SHOW DONATIONS-Brian Clark of Connecticut gave $25 -Jackson Payer of Georgia gave $100 with note: “Dear Matt Andrea and Kenny, My buddy introduced me to Mountain Bike Radio this spring on a bike trip. I have listened to all of your episodes this year and am slowly working my way back. Your show is by far my favorite on MBR. Matt your rants are great. I love the fact that the show is completely extemporaneous. Anyone that knows me, knows that I love a great rant. While slightly crude at times, it comes across clearly that you are all really a good ethical solid bunch. I am currently stuck in South East Georgia with lots of flat sand. But we are within a few hours of great riding. I currently ride a Kona Unit, 2x10, with a Fox 32, Velocity Blunt 35s, Hope hubs and BB, and just ordered a PNW dropper, because I know you all approve of droppers on hardtails. Those details are totally irrelevant to my question, but I would get a boner if my email got read on MBR, so I had to put the bike in there haha. If I didn’t mention it already - I fucking love the show. I have learned a ton from it, and I will listen as long as you two keep it rolling. A while back you bashed Squirt. I had a question about that and wanted to write you about it, and then last episode you said you had a squirt email, but it never got read. I want the low down on why you all hate squirt and also thinks this sort of segways into my one criticism – granted I don’t think you should change anything – but I think it’s worth saying anyhow. Things can be very trail specific. Just because something totally sucks in one area, don’t mean it’s always the worst option. That said, if the show didn’t have unadulterated bashing I would suspect you all sold out to some major corporation. So squirt. I ride in the sand and every chain lube under the sun picks up a ton of it and wears my chain to shit in seconds. Squirt applied correctly and allowed to dry, doesn’t pick up any grit. While it may not be the best lube under the sun, it does keep my chain from squeaking. I understand for something like tour divide, or wet conditions, were you need to apply and ride, squirt doesn’t work for shit, and that seemed to be the context you mentioned it in. But I love the stuff for sandy conditions. Ok rant away. I want to know why I am full of shit about squirt. Technical details please! -Jackson with the orange unit”-Mark Vail of Colorado gave $10 -John Gulledge of Colorado gave $50 with note: “Hey Matt, "What did the one Les say to the other.." Great to race with you at Silver Rush and see you at the Leadville 100.”
---------
LISTENER QUESTIONS- Rob has questions about geometry on hardtails, has anything changed? -Bean from Texas has question about building a new Epic. - Timothy from Australia has some info on beer down under.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEAuk is back after a little time away and the guys dive into the usual conversation. Nathan shares his latest ride fantasy, which is a contentious current topic among mountain bikers. Tani shares some stories from a recent Kona event, which includes some riding in Whistler and at Squamish, and his weird dance contest buddy.
Then they discuss two listener questions. Hollis asks about cornering, so they get into a discussion about cornering and get into some thoughts about drifting, traction, and practicing. Chase from BC is looking for some recommendations on helmets.
The Path guys welcome all of your questions and encourage you to send them an email with the subject “Podcast Question” to podcast@thepathbikeshop.com.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEJust keeping up with the Bicycling Joneses, so they just throw a bunch at you in Version 2 of BoD's.
SHOW DONATIONS- Dominik Golik of Germany gave $25 with note: “Great show, keep up the great work.” - Ben Jones gave $50 with note: "Been listening since your blog talk days and you guys are awesome! Y'all have gotten me through some long road trips and I wanted to pay up - no dig, no ride! Oh, and someone has to say it: virtually every complaint Matt had about the trail 429 was totally wrong. That bike looks pretty rad and 157 rear spacing makes way more sense than that stupid boost shit we got stuck with right after 142 came out. Still tho, it was a solid rant that I enjoyed greatly. Keep it up. I tip a cold beer, some warm maple syrup, and a hot nugget in all y'all's general direction. Cheers! BMFJ" - Austin Fenwick of North Carolina gave $10 - Aaron Willard of Keene, New Hampshire (Ben’s sidenote: Ben has direct relatives who live in Keene, NH) gave $10 with note: “Love the show keep it up, helps get me through work and now injury (yes, riding related - the bike's ok). Your show has had a large influence on my riding and purchase decisions. I am the proud owner of a new $anta Cruz Chameleon 2018 27.5+ R build kit (choose it over there Tallboy - not disappointed). I had my local shop build it and in the process traded out the SRAM Level brakes for my deore XTs off my old bike (less than 300 miles on them). Old bike was a Niner E.M.D. circa 2013 with Reba RLT that I thrashed over the course of my first 3 out of 4 years of riding. Never change guys, love the character, humor, and overall how genuine you guys are. Andrea is my fav, don't be mad Mmmm maple syrup......in Black coffee - try it” - Michael Hedlund of Duluth, Minnesota gave $25 - Goof Hall of Amarillo, Texas gave $55 with note: “Thanks for entertaining us on the #katandgoofdoepicshit road trips. Here's Fiddy Dollhairs and lil extra for that side of aioli at the Fritz. Cuz mayo is for the common folk! - Kat and Goof Amarillo, Texas”

ABOUT THIS EPISODEMatt and Kenny double team a rant about bicycle vs car tire cost. Later they remind you Joe Rogan talks to his listeners that way all the time. Kenny has been on the lifts already out at Deer Valley. Andrea still (really, still loving it) is liking the Mayhem. After a quick trip to Spot we found out she can run a piggy back shock. Tour Divide Riders have started hitting town.

Mark Landsaat – Noble BikesMark Landsaat was out at Sea Otter in April to share his relaunch of his new bike brand, Noble Bikes. Mark has some great experience in bike design in the cycling industry and shares his thoughts with Ben in a sit down interview in the Noble Bikes booth at Sea Otter.
About Noble Bikes: The Noble brand name was born on a bike ride. Me and my buddy Dave Pearson went on a mountain bike ride together and as we were riding up Corrall Pass I was thinking about possible brand names. At the top, Corrall Pass splits into several trails. We choose trail #1184 Noble Knob. While catching our breath after reaching the top I threw it out there, what about "Noble"?

ABOUT THIS EPISODEGene is joined by Steven Park from 9point8. Listen in to learn about the 9point8 Fall Line in this Product Interview with Steven. Gene and Steven give a good rundown of the features, construction, and more. Gene learned a ton on this product interview with 9point8 and we hope you do too.
About 9point8: "Nine Point Eight Inc. was established by a small group of mountain bike enthusiasts, who all just happened to be top design engineers. The first years were focused on product development, prototyping, and testing. Dedicated to excellence in design, and abhorrent of compromise, this group set-about designing, engineering, prototyping, and testing (lots and lots of testing) superior bicycle components. Nine Point Eight Inc. is located in Ancaster, near the beautiful Niagara escarpment. The design office and factory is conveniently close to excellent riding on the escarpment and surrounding areas.Every product is thoroughly engineered and optimized. Then carefully manufactured, and tested. Only when it meets our unbelievably high standards, is it released to market. Nine Point Eight products are designed, tested and assembled in Canada to the highest standards of quality."

ABOUT THE EPISODEBobby Wintle is co-owner of District Bicycles in Stillwater, Oklahoma and the main instigator at the Land Run 100. He was out at Sea Otter doing some work, having some fun, and spreading his endless energy. He sat down with Ben and chatted about life out in the Tour Divide, giving hugs at the Land Run, owning a bike shop, and more. Be sure to mark your calendars for March 15-16, 2019.
About the Land Run 100:
“These roads have a depth of history, and a soul. They are unique, unforgiving, ever-changing, but always red. On April 22, 1889, cannon-fire signaled the beginning of the first Land Run in Stillwater, OK, the home and start/finish line of the Land Run 100. At the heart of this event are some of the most rugged and daunting, beautiful and memorable roads in the Oklahoma country. They take on a personality of their own. But they are also marked by the people who travel far and work hard to ride them. Making yourself a part of these roads makes them a part of you.”

ABOUT THE EPISODEErik de Brun is one of the co-owners of Redshift Sports. He took some time while at Sea Otter to chat with Ben Redshift as a company, the products, his background, pole vaulting, and more.
About Redshift Sports:
"Redshift Sports was founded in 2013 by Stephen, Erik, and Scott with the goal of making components that help cyclists and triathletes ride further, faster, and more comfortably on the bikes they already own. We are a small group of mechanical engineers who happen to be avid (if somewhat average) cyclists and triathletes.
Prior to founding Redshift Sports, we managed (and still manage) Ripple Design LLC, an engineering consulting and product design firm in Philadelphia. Ripple Design works on a wide range of products, from medical devices to large-scale landmine clearance equipment. We drew on this extensive design, prototyping and manufacturing experience to bring our first product - the Switch Aero System - to market.
In June 2013, we launched the Switch Aero System on Kickstarter, a crowd-funding platform that lets independent backers jump-start small businesses and projects. The response was overwhelming - people loved the idea of maximizing the versatility of their existing road bikes. We raised 2.5 times our original funding goal, which allowed us to bring the system to market. We can't thank our Kickstarter backers enough - none of this would have been possible without their support! You can check out the original Kickstarter video below - the system has evolved a lot since those first prototype units!
In late 2015, we launched our second product - the ShockStop - on Kickstarter. The response was again fantastic and with our backers help we were able to bring the ShockStop to market in 2016."

ABOUT THIS EPISODEJoshua Kleve is the League Director of the Minnesota High School Cycling League. He joins the show to share a little bit about himself, his role with the league, and details of what the league has going on these days. Joshua gives you a glimpse into his riding and coaching past. He also gives you a history of the league, details the current status, and shares some thoughts about where it’s all going.
We are going to be diving further into youth cycling in 2018, so if you’re a coach of any of the NICA leagues, we’d love to have you join the show to share what you have going on in your part of the world.

------------ About the MN LeagueThe Minnesota High School Cycling League, founded in 2012, is a state-wide independent activity provider for student-athletes in 7th to 12th grade. Our mission is to build strong bodies, strong minds and strong character through cycling, regardless of ability level.
Simply put, we get kids on bikes. Student-athletes from 7th through 12th grade come from all corners of the state to participate in races and programs. The majority of these kids have never ridden a mountain bike, let alone raced prior to participating in the league. Our association has grown from just over a hundred riders to over 1,500 riders!
The MN League has become more than a racing program, we are a youth development program. Each year we get hundreds of new student-athletes, coaches, volunteers and spectators. We firmly believe that cycling and an outdoor experience will leave a lasting impression on young minds and bodies.

------------- The Buddy Pegs StoryScott and Jannine Fitzgerald have a passion for steep adventure. Sometimes the adventure is on a bike, skis, or snowboard, but every day they seek it in their work.
Steep adventure is all about trying something new, pushing beyond your comfort zone, and realizing the rewards of taking reasonable risks in life.
In 2002, Scott and Jannine started a one-man bicycle repair shop in Jackson Hole, WY, and grew it into a Top 50 US bicycle retailer. While running Fitzgerald’s Bicycles, they saw the positive impacts bicycles have on people of all ages, and communities as a whole.
In 2015, they sold their bicycle shop to embark on a new steep adventure to inspire families across the country through children’s media and Buddy Pegs was born!

ABOUT THIS EPISODENathan, Tani, and Auk are still on location for the Santa Cruz holiday party and are joined by the riders of the Juliana-SRAM Pro Team of Anka Martin, Sarah Leishan, and Kelli Emmett, They cover many topics, including life after retirement, women in the industry and more.
The Path guys welcome all of your questions and encourage you to send them an email with the subject “Podcast Question” to podcast@thepathbikeshop.com.
------------
ABOUT ANKA MARTIN
HEIGHT: 5’3″ DATE OF BIRTH: JANUARY 28, 1977
Bike Size: Small
Bike Setup Highlights:
I don’t have any crazy bike set ups really, I do like a specific tune on my rear shock, and two tokens in my Rockshox Lyrik fork, but for the most part I just throw some lube on the chain, and get out there on the trails.
From the Blog:
“This is my absolute favourite thing in the world to do (exploring new cool places with my bike), so I thought that starting an adventure trip just for women and teaming up with some of the best guiding outfitters around the globe could bring about a change. These trips could act as a platform for adventurous women to take the plunge and to go on a riding trip of their own—and then someday we’ll see groups of women out shredding with the token male tagging along. :-)”
Excerpt, Soul Trails
ABOUT SARAH LEISHMAN
HEIGHT: 5’3″ DATE OF BIRTH: APRIL 7
Bike Size: Small
Bike Setup Highlights:
Reverb set right up against my grip so I can reach. Levers close to the bars for my freakishly small hands. SRAM Quarq power meter 32 ring when I train—I take it off to race. Prototype Juliana saddle.
From the Blog:
“As far as the 2017 riding season; it’s already full of change. I plan to shift my focus away from the intensity of racing and battling on the Enduro World Series, and instead focus on bringing energy back into local events, media projects that are meaningful to me, and living my days like Chuck does.”
Excerpt, The Year of Chuck
ABOUT KELLI EMMETT
HEIGHT: 5’5″ DATE OF BIRTH: APRIL 7, 1977
Bike Size: Medium
Bike Setup Highlights:
I’m riding a new Reverb from Rockshox that I love! It has 6 inches of travel, which gives me plenty of room to get back on steep descents. Braking power helps my confidence a ton, so I take the extra weight and use 200 mm rotors in the front and rear. My Pike fork is set up soft at 45 psi with 2 tokens.
From the Blog:
“Don’t be intimidated. Take advantage of riding with the local pros in your community. Every time I hit the trails with female companions who are better riders than me, my riding progresses. I’m inspired to hit jumps and ride technical sections that I never thought were possible. Watching other women shred gives me the confidence that I can do the same.”
Excerpt, 10 Things I Wish I’d Known
More:
When it comes to racing and training, it’s fair to say Kelli knows a thing or two, and thankfully she’s not afraid to share it! Her blog pieces on strength and interval training are favorites around the office and around the internet. In fact, Kelli pushes a little too hard sometimes and found herself nursing a triple-fractured collarbone after a training ride last September!

ABOUT THIS EPISODENathan, Tani, and Auk are on location for the Santa Cruz holiday party and are joined by the riders of the Santa Cruz Syndicate, Greg Minnaar, Luca Shaw, and Loris Vergier. They cover many topics, including the Syndicate, training, tire size, and more.
The Path guys welcome all of your questions and encourage you to send them an email with the subject “Podcast Question” to podcast@thepathbikeshop.com.
ABOUT GREG MINNAAR
Greg first started racing BMX at 4 years of age. He soon moved over to motocross and raced for 11 years before his parents bought a bicycle shop and his path to DH stardom began.
Greg was initially inspired by the rivalry between Nico Vouilloz and Steve Peat. He worked his way up to the Santa Cruz Syndicate team to eventually ride alongside one of those childhood heroes.
Greg’s won back-to-back World Championships on the Syndicate, and is widely recognized as one of the smoothest and most consistent DH racers on the circuit.
Greg’s personal sponsors include Oneal, Oakley, Kabuto, Oprtix, Five Ten, and Gamut.
ABOUT LUCA SHAW
Luca’s been on two wheels his whole life. He started off riding motocross at the tender age of 4, and got into BMX racing when he turned 8 and raced all across the country as an amateur. When he was 13, he did his first mountain bike race, and it’s been all downhill from there!
ABOUT LORIS VERGIER
Loris Vergier’s been racing bikes since he was 10 years old, and he brings two Junior World Cup titles, a Junior World Championship, and two Elite World Cup podiums with him to the Syndicate—we can’t wait to see what he can do.

About Scott Jones
Scott's Experience: After graduating from Marshall University with my M.S. in exercise physiology I headed west to Colorado, starting my career as the Head Of Sports Performance for the HIT Center. After the first year I went off on my own and have since worked over 13,000 one on one sessions with athletes of all levels and backgrounds including Olympic level athletes, professional athletes, adaptive athletes, youth, recreational, and lifestyle athletes!
Scott's Coaching Philosophy: The science of exercise and the art of coaching combined with the evolved belief that everyone is an athlete drive the coaching and development of every athlete I work with. Don't think you are an athlete? It's my goal to teach and train you otherwise.
Scott's Personal Summary: I moved to Colorado the month after I received my Masters Degree and haven't budged. I found my wife sitting next to me on a chairlift on a powder day in Breckenridge chomping on a blueberry pancake. We did 7 weeks in SE Asia for our honeymoon, and now have two amazing boys. We are both born with a passion for moving, adventure, and getting others excited about these things! I just started a more personal Instagram feed if ya wanna stalk me a bit before hiring me! Check it out HERE.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEKelli keeps it quick, tasty, and helpful for you. She makes a slow cooked oatmeal that you're going to need to try. A great option for your new Instant Pot! (What?? You don't have one yet??) and for those who may not have the time to get something good on the table in the morning.
Here is the recipe:
Grain Mix Ingredients:
- 1 cup steel-cut oats (gluten-free if desired) - 2 large apples, cored and chopped - 1. 5 cups unsweetened non-dairy milk - 3 cups water - 2 teaspoons cinnamon - 0.25 tsp salt - 2 Tbsp coconut oil - 1 tsp vanilla extract - 4 Tbsp hemp seeds (or if you don’t have these, omit, and add 1 more Tbsp oats) - 4 Tbsp chia seeds - 2 Tbsp real maple syrup or organic or local honey
Instructions
- VERY IMPORTANT: Grease your slow cooker with coconut oil, butter, or an oil spray. Don’t skip this step or your oatmeal will stick and burn to the sides. - Place all ingredients in your slow cooker, cover, and cook on low 7-8 hours. - Once cooked, stir well and serve. Add more milk, pecans, maple, honey, apples, etc. if desired (but delish as is). You can also serve alongside Greek yogurt to boost protein or use as a recovery, see below. - Can be stored in refrigerator 3-4 days, simply reheat in microwave or stovetop.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEWhen Griff recorded a video of him attempting to clean a difficult boulder and posted it to the Mountain Bike Skills Network (MTBSN) community, the feedback he got jumpstarted his thinking about the importance and attraction of sessioning, something he did constantly in his previous life riding mototrials. It deepened a few days later when he went indoor rock climbing. And by late summer, inspired by a club in the state of Virginia, the MTBSN Sessionistas group was formed.

About Scott Jones
Scott's Experience: After graduating from Marshall University with my M.S. in exercise physiology I headed west to Colorado, starting my career as the Head Of Sports Performance for the HIT Center. After the first year I went off on my own and have since worked over 13,000 one on one sessions with athletes of all levels and backgrounds including Olympic level athletes, professional athletes, adaptive athletes, youth, recreational, and lifestyle athletes!
Scott's Coaching Philosophy: The science of exercise and the art of coaching combined with the evolved belief that everyone is an athlete drive the coaching and development of every athlete I work with. Don't think you are an athlete? It's my goal to teach and train you otherwise.
Scott's Personal Summary: I moved to Colorado the month after I received my Masters Degree and haven't budged. I found my wife sitting next to me on a chairlift on a powder day in Breckenridge chomping on a blueberry pancake. We did 7 weeks in SE Asia for our honeymoon, and now have two amazing boys. We are both born with a passion for moving, adventure, and getting others excited about these things! I just started a more personal Instagram feed if ya wanna stalk me a bit before hiring me! Check it out HERE.

Athletes Who Ride Series Show Page
ABOUT THIS EPISODE:We're working hard here at Mountain Bike Radio to focus on everyone. For too long, the "average" rider has been forgotten, lost in a world of elite and pro riders. The reality is that we all need to focus on a well rounded life and fitness routine to ensure that we can enjoy the ride for a long time. Listen in as we kick off this new series to help you be and feel your best.
About Scott Jones:
Scott's Experience: After graduating from Marshall University with my M.S. in exercise physiology I headed west to Colorado, starting my career as the Head Of Sports Performance for the HIT Center. After the first year I went off on my own and have since worked over 13,000 one on one sessions with athletes of all levels and backgrounds including Olympic level athletes, professional athletes, adaptive athletes, youth, recreational, and lifestyle athletes!
Scott's Coaching Philosophy: The science of exercise and the art of coaching combined with the evolved belief that everyone is an athlete drive the coaching and development of every athlete I work with. Don't think you are an athlete? It's my goal to teach and train you otherwise.
Scott's Personal Summary: I moved to Colorado the month after I received my Masters Degree and haven't budged. I found my wife sitting next to me on a chairlift on a powder day in Breckenridge chomping on a blueberry pancake. We did 7 weeks in SE Asia for our honeymoon, and now have two amazing boys. We are both born with a passion for moving, adventure, and getting others excited about these things! I just started a more personal Instagram feed if ya wanna stalk me a bit before hiring me! Check it out HERE.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
John Burke is the President of Trek and wants the best for everyone at Trek, as well as the entire country. He has tremendous experience working with people and enjoys reading and current events. Throughout his life, he’s been interested in learning from other leaders and taking action himself.
In this episode, John shares his life and experience during his early years at Trek and some of the early lessons that have contributed to his current status. Then John discusses his newest book, 12 Simple Solutions to Save America. Listen in for some good perspective from one of the cycling industry’s leaders about how we can help change the country for the better.
About the book, 12 Simple Solutions to Save America:
“In 2011, John Burke attended his son’s graduation ceremony at Marquette University. Author David McCullough was the commencement speaker, and he gave some advice that day that really stuck with Burke. Those words were: “at some point, do something for your country.” That evening, Burke began to think about what he could do for his country. For years he had been disappointed by the Government’s inability to solve any of the big issues our country faced.
It was that evening on the drive home from his son’s graduation ceremony that Burke decided he would write a book about the big problems America faces and solutions to fix those issues. In 12 Simple Solutions to Save America, Burke talks candidly about what he believes should serve as America’s core values and offers 12 simple solutions to some of the most complex problems that America faces.”

In this episode Jeff talks history, how the product came to be, and of course their biggest blunder to date: going to Sea Otter with a changing room.

With a little nudging from Matt, Tom gives a rough idea of what products to expect from them in the future.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEThe gang tackles an odd show this week: no questions, no donations, just an hour of shooting the breeze about bikes, rims, and the usual stuff. Kenny and Matt don't have much in the way of stories but Andrea has a zinger of a tale (tail) from racing Breck 68 this past weekend. Andrea tries prodding Matt into a rant about suspension on drop bar bikes by mentioning the new Pinarello, but Matt makes lemonade out of lemons and tries to project where all of this is going in the next few years.

They discuss how Chris Plesko is leading the Colorado Trail Race on a rigid single speed in terrible weather and how hard it must be.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE:Ben sits down with Jeff for the second time on MBR and you don't want to miss it. They run through how Jeff got started riding, how he tasted his breakfast at the end of his first Leadville 100 and how that plays into how Tailwind was started. The story goes through a lot of growth, from using a Kitchenaid stand mixer to make one batch at a time to buying a tumbling mixer, but not having the money for a motor, how he made his own sifter using an orbital sander, and how as the business has grown to a 12 person team, they still keep a personal touch on every order.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEWhen Griff repeatedly failed to learn to bunny hop on his own, no matter how many how-to videos he watched, he took an online course. After a 3 month struggle, he’s now a beginner but was amazed at how difficult it was. In this episode, he explains his top 5 reasons why it’s so hard to learn. If your expectations are realistic, you stand a better chance of learning what some say is the most difficult skill in mountain biking: the bunny hop.

USE CODE RAD20 AT CHECKOUT FOR 20% OFF YOUR ENTRY ABOUT THIS EPISODE:Ben gets David Krimstock on a solid internet connection to get his scoop on how he has packed so much living into the first 26 years of his life. Things all start for David as being a state champion swimmer before age 10, to having a rough go with addiction and drugs that finally takes control after a nasty longboarding accident as his junior year of high school was ending.
Once this happened and athleticism wasn't the top priority, the drug use frequency and potency ramped up rapidly to a climax of IV drug use, flunking out of rehabs, and overdosing in Denver bus stops. The rest of the story is in the show, tune in to hear how David is now racing at an elite level and leading others through the Jaywalker Lodge.

Also, a link to a really cool flask for some very "Excited Armadillos".

Normal shop news starts the show with special Kona models on sale at the shop June 7th through June 18th - 12% off and no tax. The new Santa Cruz Nomads are in stock - which leads to a big discussion of how to measure bottom bracket height, the guys discuss how Santa Cruz has very carefully not called the new Nomad an "enduro bike" which begs the question: is a long travel 29er coming? They continue on with a comparison of EWS to 24 hours of Le mans and downhill is like top fuel drag racing, why races should be on Sunday, and how Brendan's van build has shaped up.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEAndrea is joined by Chelsea Camarata, the founder of Kaden Apparel. Kaden Apparel is a new womens's specific cycling clothing company based in Vermont. Listen in to hear about the company, the Kickstarter, and get a great feel of the woman behind the products.
ABOUT THE KADEN APPAREL FOUNDER
Kaden Apparel was founded in Burlington, Vermont, in 2013 by Chelsea Camarata. Chelsea’s passion for biking began many years earlier and she continues her active participation in the sport by getting out and riding as much as she can and continuously working to further the women’s mountain bike scene through outreach and women’s ride days. The idea for Kaden was born out of her frustration with the selection, or lack thereof, of women’s mountain bike clothing. The necessity for high-quality, ladies specific bike clothing, that is both functional and fashionable, was apparent.
Chelsea began prototyping and testing her hand-made garments with some old sewing machines, in her dining room. Eventually getting her designs to the level of quality she was looking for, she began working with an American manufacturing facility to produce the line. Kaden’s moisture wicking fabrics are specially designed to keep women riders dry for even the longest rides. Designed by riders, Kaden Apparel is dedicated to making the best clothing for women cyclists.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEIn this episode, Griff explains why learning track stands is so helpful for riding tighter and steeper uphill switchbacks.
Track stands are sometimes considered just a bike trials-type balance maneuver, most often used when waiting the light to change and you want to show off. However, they’re actually a foundational mountain biking skill, appropriate for riders to learn who are at an intermediate-level or above. Tight slow-speed turns become easier once you learn to track stand, as do the the more advanced skills of hopping and rocking.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
John Burke is the President of Trek and wants the best for everyone at Trek, as well as the entire country. He has tremendous experience working with people and enjoys reading and current events. Throughout his life, he’s been interested in learning from other leaders and taking action himself.
In this episode, John shares his life and experience during his early years at Trek and some of the early lessons that have contributed to his current status. Then John discusses his newest book, 12 Simple Solutions to Save America. Listen in for some good perspective from one of the cycling industry’s leaders about how we can help change the country for the better.
About the book, 12 Simple Solutions to Save America:
“In 2011, John Burke attended his son’s graduation ceremony at Marquette University. Author David McCullough was the commencement speaker, and he gave some advice that day that really stuck with Burke. Those words were: “at some point, do something for your country.” That evening, Burke began to think about what he could do for his country. For years he had been disappointed by the Government’s inability to solve any of the big issues our country faced.
It was that evening on the drive home from his son’s graduation ceremony that Burke decided he would write a book about the big problems America faces and solutions to fix those issues. In 12 Simple Solutions to Save America, Burke talks candidly about what he believes should serve as America’s core values and offers 12 simple solutions to some of the most complex problems that America faces.”

ABOUT THIS EPISODEWhat do you do when your rear wheel is about to impact a decent size rock, log, or ledge?
If you're a beginner or intermediate-level rider, you probably rely on some combination of momentum, traction, rear suspension, hope and prayer.
If you've taken an MTB 101 course, your instructor probably taught you how to 'load and explode' followed by a lifting of the rear wheel with a scooping/clawing of the pedal with the rear foot. And you probably never do that type of 'lifting' for good reason.
In this episode, Griff explains why rear wheel unweighting is much more useful than rear wheel lifting. Plus, it's much easier to learn.

RELATED SHOW VIDEOSI recorded this video of me going over this rock at Lebanon Hills Mountain Biking Trails on a hardtail fat bike about a year ago. As you can see in the stop motion segment, I’m not using a bunny hop.
I’m using a manual to lift my front wheel so it kisses the top of the rock. I then load/compress my weight (not enough, it appears) and then ‘explode’ straight up, unweighting my rear wheel early enough so that it is rising up off the ground as it impacts the rock.
I’m not scooping or clawing or lifting my rear wheel with my trailing right foot at all.
"Using a manual and rear wheel unweighting to get over a big rock"
I made this short video a couple years ago, demonstrating rear wheel unweighting over some small firewood, followed by rear wheel unweighting up a curb, no front wheel braking.
In the last segment, it might look like I’m using a scooping/clawing/lifting technique with my rear foot, toes pointed down. But I’m not. I’m just leaping, with hand pressure on my bars opposed with foot pressure on my pedals.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Mountain bike racing in Wyoming? A 24-hour race in Wyoming? Yes to both. Evan O’Toole is one of the directors of the new Two Moon 24 at Glendo State Park in East Central Wyoming. Glendo State Park is home to some new, great singletrack and is conveniently located off of I-25 only 200 miles north of Denver.
Evan is a long time Mountain Bike Radio listener, so it’s great to have him as a guest and have him share information about Wyoming’s new 24 hour mountain bike race.
If you have any ideas for future guests or episodes, please contact us at ben@mountainbikeradio.com.

A LIST OF THINGS TO PACK-Toolbox -Shock pump -Tire pump - floor style -Tire pump for on bike use (CO2 can get spendy.) -Spare tubes - a lot. Paying retail on the road when you have them in a box at home is annoying. -Lube -Rags -Water bottles -Tire sealant -Spare tire that works tubeless -Derailleur hanger - one for every bike in the group. Attached to your hanger should be the appropiate speed quick link for trailside repair if need. You probably will need these at the same time.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Mark brings you another great interview with a prominent US endurance racer. Dylan Johnson is a six-year veteran of the National Ultra Endurance Series at the young age of 21. He was the 2016 NUE Series Men’s Champion after an interesting year that began with wins at Cohutta and the Mohican, continued with a mid season lull, and finished with a dramatic win to seal his series victory.
Mark and Dylan discuss a wide range of topics. Listen in as Dylan shares how he got started so young, some thoughts on training, racing, the upcoming season, and more. Dylan’s voice may sound young, but it’s clear that he’s beyond his years in his attitude, focus, determination, and skill.
If you are a race director or racer who would like to hear your race report on an episode of The Last Aid Station, please contact Mark atMark@Mountainbikeradio.com.

Auk is hiding, but Nathan and Tani go crazy. 29" in the front and 27.5" for the rear??? Is Tani nuts or is he on to something. They go through the usual show flow, giving you some shop news followed by a lot of great bike discussion. Scientifically accurate vs generally informative? Tani may have lost his mind with this new project. Plus, they discuss Tani's Bike Buying Directives (in case you're looking for a new bike or even thinking about a new bike...)

ABOUT DIRTY KANZA
From the Dirty Kanza website: "Dirty Kanza Promotions was founded in 2006 by Jim Cummins, with the assistance of fellow cycling enthusiast Joel Dyke. At that time, gravel grinding was just beginning to catch the interest of the endurance cycling community. However, Jim had grown up in the Flint Hills of east central Kansas and had been riding gravel for decades. Inspired by some of the early gravel grinder events… and convinced the Flint Hills had the best gravel to be found anywhere in the world, Jim and Joel decided to create Dirty Kanza 200.
Initially, these two gravel aficionados had no idea the extent to which this whole gravel grinding thing would grow, nor did they give it any real thought. That wasn’t what motivated them. They both simply felt their lives had been enriched through cycling. And DK200 was their attempt to give back to the cycling community.
Since then, the popularity of gravel grinding has exploded and is now the fastest growing genre in the cycling industry. The popularity of DK200 has grown too, from 34 participants in 2006, to an anticipated 2,200 riders in 2017. And while that growth has brought with it a few changes to our format and the way we have to manage certain aspects of the event, one thing has remained constant… DK200 is a grass-roots event, organized and managed by folks who are passionate about cycling, and done so for the primary purpose of providing life-enriching cycling experiences for our event participants."

ABOUT THIS EPISODE:Bobby Wintle race director of Land Run 100 and owner of District Bicycles sits down with Matt to discuss the 2017 Land Run 100. They cover how the race has grown and transformed over the last 5 years, why Bobby and Crystal chose to #unlearnpavement, and what to expect in 2017 at the Land Run 100.
About Land Run 100:
From Bobby "The roads in which you will be riding have a history and a soul that breathes deep. These roads are infinitely red, unforgiving, and unique. On April 22, 1889, the cannons fired signaling the first Land Run that opened up the Unassigned Lands of the Oklahoma Territory, which included Stillwater, OK the home and start/finish line of the Land Run 100. Oklahoma may seem like the last place you would consider traveling to for an event…until now. If you love roads that change every time you ride them, and seem to take on their own personality, Land Run 100 is the event for you."
Registration will open on Saturday, November 19th and will be limited to a combined field total of 1,000 participants for the 100 and 50 mile option. If registation is full please add yourself the wait list as registered people will inevitably have conflicts that arise between now and race day. For the first time ever the midway checkpoint will be in Guthrie, OK on a course that is 100% planned, preridden, and approved by Bobby.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Nathan, Tani, and Auk have pushed past the year mark of The Path Podcast! It's been a great year following along with the guys. They go through their usual bike discussions.

He is wondering how far is too far when it comes to slacker and lower. The other listener, Kris, thinks that protection is a good idea but notes that there was an instance of injury due to a bike pump in a pack.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This is a special episode of Engineer’s Corner. While Phil has taken a little break to change jobs and move to a different city, Ben sat down with Brendan Moore of Otso Cycles. If you recognize Brendan’s name, that’s because he is also one of the owner’s of Wolf Tooth Components.

For example, the new Voytek offers the smallest Q-factor of any current fatbike. Also, the Warakin and Voytek come equipped with the Otso designed “Tuning Chip” dropouts.
Listen in to here Brendan discuss the new brand and what they are up to. Otso’s are currently in stock and shipping, so be sure to head over to the website if you’re interested.

We want to inspire people, no matter what challenges they have faced or are facing, to get outside and find joy and beauty in the midst of hardship. My mom is the inspiration for this mission as she was recently diagnosed with b-cell lymphoma and is undergoing chemotherapy. We are hoping to raise funds for the King’s Fold Retreat Center (in the Canadian Rockies) which provides place of refuge for so many facing challenges in life. For the past 18 years, they have hosted a week-long retreat several times throughout the year specifically for cancer patients. We want to share our story and journey through cancer and the hope and joy that riding a bicycle can bring!
CHRISTY & BRIANNA’S STORYWe are best friends who love life, have a passion to be outdoors and to explore this amazing world on two wheels, and who have both been impacted by cancer. Our friendship began in South Africa on an Athletes in Action service trip where we played soccer with the SA National team and put on soccer camps in poverty stricken townships. Since then we have supported each other through the highs and lows of life and have shared some of the most epic adventures together throughout the world. We are both passionate mountain bikers who have competed in mtb racing in North America. Last December, we moved to New Zealand to have the opportunity to adventure on two wheels and mtb race in NZ for a year.
Unfortunately, our time had to come to a screeching halt a few months into NZ as Bri’s mom was diagnosed with cancer and Christian broke her back after falling 100ft off a mountain while biking. After nearly 100ft of tumbling head over heals, she came to a complete stop “only by the power of God’s hand and choosing for me to live.” She was heli-evaced out of one of the most remote places in the country, and learned that she had fractured her spine in two places, and compressed three vertebrae completely on top of each other. We will never forget that day and it has brought us closer in our friendship in a way that only a life and death experience can. Christian is now on the road to recovery and is planning on making a remarkable comeback to take on this challenge!
After all this unfolded in NZ, Bri went home to Canada to support her mom through her journey with cancer and Christian returned to Colorado to focus on healing her back around the support of family and friends. Christian lost someone very close to her many years ago when her cousin she grew up with died of cancer at 19yo after battling cancer throughout his adolescence. This has impacted her life in a big way and is an inspiration for her to do this ride.
Bri’s mom is in the fight of her life but we are holding hope that she is going to be a survivor! She is a resilient women and has a quiet strength about her that everyone seems to notice. Not once has she felt sorry for herself, and in fact continues to have a heart to serve her community and friends as she battles cancer. She loves being outside and in the mountains. Riding a bicycle has been a passion of her’s for many years and at the beginning of her chemotherapy treatment, she decided that her symbol of hope throughout treatment was going to be a bicycle; that she will soon be able to get back on the bike and ride to her heart’s content. And we are hopeful she will!
THE PURPOSEThis September, we will be attempting to mountain bike through the Alps from Mont Blanc (Chamonix, France) to the Matterhorn (Zermatt, Switzerland) and finishing in the Aosta Valley (Italy). This will take us through some of the highest mountain passes in Europe and will undoubtedly be the most challenging bike ride we’ve ever done. We are taking on this ride in honour of my mom and her desire to ride her bicycle again. We are hoping that this challenge will inspire others to get outside and go for a ride, and raise a money for the Kings Fold Cancer Retreat Center.
We are planning to make a short documentary of this journey and will also post to our FB along our purpose driven ride. We would be stoked if you would like to come alongside us as we venture through the Alps by checking out our page and hope you will share with others as we hope our venture encourages and inspires those impacted by cancer or any hardship in life.
Holding hope and riding with purpose! – Brianna and Christian

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Forged carbon is creeping into the discussion in the cycling world and we're curious what it's all about. In this episode, Phil gives a quick lesson in basic carbon production and then teaches you about forged carbon. Because of several factors, including production speed and lower cost, forged carbon may be something that we see more of in the near future.
LISTENER QUESTION:

The X100 is the Ultimate Mountain Bike Race and Fat Tire Festival! For 2016, they have a venue change and the race starts and finishes at the spectacular Timber Ridge RV and Resort, just a few minutes east of Traverse City, Michigan. The race includes a 100 mile individual, 100 mile relay style 3 person team, 50 mile, and 25 mile race consisting of mostly twisting technical single track that winds in and out of county gravel roads, two tracks and fire roads.
Riders roll through the most beautiful terrain Michigan has to offer: deep woods and steep hills dotted with pristine lakes, streams and ponds. The X100 has some the most challenging sections of raw organic terrain and killer cross-country riding built by mountain bikers who have a passion for adventure, and – until now – known only by die-hard locals.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Who manages Wilderness areas, and why? Since we, the local advocates, will have to establish relationships with these agencies if the Sustainable Trails Coalition is successful in their bid to change the Wilderness Act, we’ll need to understand who manages the land. A change in the Act could allow local managers to determine whether or not to allow bike access, so it’s more important than ever to be aware of who does what. This episode is a short primer on who and what these agencies are and what they do.
Plus, Drew adds in a rant about who should and shouldn’t make changes to trails.
If you or someone you know is in charge of trail projects or organizing work days for your group, Drew wants you to email him. Share your projects and when your work days are, and he’ll share that information in future episodes.
If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact us at info@mountainbikeradio.com.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE:This episode is brought to you by iSSi Pedals
Phil and Ben discuss elliptical chainrings. Over the last few years, another generation of elliptical/ovalized chainrings has emerged. Many people are still turned off by the poor design of the Biopace chainrings of the 1980's-90's.
The designs have been redesigned and refined with current technology to maximize the mechanical advantage in many situations. With more riders going to one front chainring set ups, we may see more riders switching over to elliptical chainring options.
Listen in as Phil gives his engineering thoughts about elliptical chainrings and discussing power, torque, traction, mechanical advantage, and more.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Episode 17 of Trail Cast is a huge episode! Sustainable Trails Coalition Board Member, David Simon, joins Drew to discuss several topics, including the goal of the STC and what the STC stands for. You’ll hear why the STC is important to mountain bikers, and what they want the mountain biking community to do about it.
This is a conversation that will certainly clue you into some of the real discussion going on behind the Sustainable Trails Coalition. If you’ve just been stuck reading social media and open letters against organizations, you’re going to want to listen in.
Drew and David also discuss several trail access issues, concerns, current status, as well as a variety of other topics, including ebikes, Marin County, and the National Environmental Policy Act.
If you or someone you know is in charge of trail projects or organizing work days for your group, Drew wants you to email him. Share your projects and when your work days are, and he'll share that information in future episodes.

HOUSECLEANING/LISTENER QUESTION
First race of the season is in the books
“John and Kyle,
Great to hear a new episode guys! My favorite show to date for sure. A question I've had for you guys that I've been wanting to ask for a while is whether or not either of you actually listen to music when putting in miles on the bike? I definitely refrain from plugging in when riding singletrack most importantly due to just being aware of other trail users, but when it comes to gravel or road riding, are tunes a necessary component for your training? Finally, thanks for the tip on Achilles! Super sweet stuff. Take care guys.
Grant”
RECORD REVIEW
World Be Free – 'The AntiCircle'
Released: February 5 2016 – Revelation Records
World Be Free's story began in the fall of 2014, when Scott Vogel (Terror, Buried Alive), Joe Garlipp (Envy), Andrew Kline (Strife), and Sammy Siegler (Judge, CIV, Rival Schools) met monthly to write classicinfluenced, melodic and positive hardcore. All of this developed without a label, budget or any mention to the outside world. When Siegler scored some recording time at Hurley, they flew in Arthur Smilios (Gorilla Biscuits, CIV) to cover on bass and hustled into the studio. Vogel and Terror bandmate Nick Jett then tracked vocals at Jett's studio, passing the ball to Walter Schreifels (Rival Schools, Quicksand, Gorilla Biscuits) for one final guest spot.
With their album finished and its release fast approaching, Top 5 – Primal Reaction Records. Something about these 5 records speaks to that dark place in your soul. Pure raw aggression and power..
UNBROKEN – Life Love Regret – 1994 New Age Records
Life. Love. Regret. is everything that hardcore is. It is the heart, the soul, the sound, and the attitude. The music is loud and in your face, but most importantly, passion is put at the top. This album is a monument by a monolithic band. From the crushing riff and sinister notes at the beginning of "D4" to the ending feedback in the nine minute "Curtain."
Breather Resist – Only In The Morning – March 25, 2003 Deathwish Inc
Breather Resist formed in 2002 and recorded 8 songs, 4 of which were on handmade demos. These 8 songs became their first EP, "Only in the Morning", released on Deathwish, Inc.. Their first LP, Charmer, was released on Jade Tree Records in October 2004, having been produced by Kurt Ballou. In December 2005, lead singer Steve Sidoni left the group; Buried Alive – Death Of Your Perfect World – April 20, 1999 Victory Produced by Steve Evetts at Trax East Studios. It is the band's only album with Jesse Muscato on drums.
CURSED – I – February 23, 2005 Deathwish Inc
Formed in 2001 a year after the breakup of The Swarm aka Knee Deep in the Dead. Known for their trademark nihilistic and dystopian lyrical themes, stark classic horror imagery and loud, abrasive live shows.
Integrity – Those Who Fear Tomorrow – 1991 Overkill Records
Integrity's For Those Who Fear Tomorrow is a hardcore juggernaut that has lurked in infamy for over 15 years. Recorded in 1991, For Those Who Fear Tomorrow is often credited as on of the first true metalcore" albums. While hardcore crossover bands like the Cro Mags and Corrosion of Conformity had existed before Integrity, few were prepared for the world Integrity brought to life with their debut album. FTWFT's razor sharp metallic edges, driving hardcore verses, and gloomy breakdowns set a stage for one of hardcore's most messianic and charismatic front men: Dwid Hellion. The album has been issued in close to 10 different editions and formats. It has never received proper distribution or promotion, but it has survived: a truly bastardized child of hardcore, metal, and a darkness of the soul.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Drew is joined by guest, Todd McMahon. Todd contacted our team at Mountain Bike Radio to get on and share his thoughts on mountain bikes in Wilderness Areas. Todd owns mountain bikes himself and mountain bikes from time to time. He is better known as a hiker, recently completing the Ice Age National Scenic Trail. He believes that the Pacific Crest Trail should be kept for it's original users, hikers and horseback riders and has created two pages to share information about the trail.
This episode will give you some thoughts from someone who isn't neck-deep in the cycling world and will offer perspective of how others view mountain bikers.
Mountain Bike Radio officially endorses both IMBA and the Sustainable Trails Coalition. We feel that IMBA has played an integral role in all of our current access and local and regional relationships and will continue to foster those important relationships, while the Sustainable Trails Coalition can pick up in efforts that IMBA isn't. Together, the groups provide some great advocacy for all of us.
If you or someone you know is in charge of trail projects or organizing work days for your group, Drew wants you to email him. Share your projects and when your work days are, and he'll share that information in future episodes.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
This is another special edition of The Last Aid Station. Mark brings you the most in-depth Absa Cape Epic coverage you’ll hear anywhere. Listen in as he rolls through the action and results of this year’s 2016 Absa Cape Epic in South Africa.
About the Absa Cape Epic – from the website: “The Absa Cape Epic must be completed by both members of a two-person team. The route changes every year, leading aspiring amateur and professional mountain bikers from around the world through roughly 800km of unspoilt scenery and 15 000m of accumulated climbing, over some of the most magnificent mountain passes in South Africa.
The Absa Cape Epic is the most televised mountain bike stage race in the world and the only eight-day mountain bike stage race classed as hors catégorie by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI). This official UCI status makes it a highlight on the professional racer’s calendar. The Absa Cape Epic also attracts aspiring amateur riders wanting to test themselves against the best. It is a full-service race, meaning that everything is taken care of from the start – all riders need to think about is riding.”
If you are a race director or racer who would like to hear your race report on an episode of The Last Aid Station, please contact Mark at Mark@Mountainbikeradio.com. If you have any questions or feedback for Steve, please email him at Steve@Mountainbikeradio.com.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Leah Gruhn joins Andrea to discuss her recent successful first attempt at the Iditarod Trail Invitational. Leah breaks down her 350-mile fatbike trek from Knik Lake to McGrath, Alaska. It’s a great listen because Leah’s passion and excitement for the ITI and riding in general definitely comes through. Leah had a busy 2015-16 winter as she completed the Tuscobia Ultra, the Arrowhead 135, the Actif Epica, and the Iditarod Trail Invitational.
The Iditarod Trail Invitational is the world’s longest winter ultra marathon by fat bike, foot and ski, and follows the historic Iditarod Trail from Knik, Alaska over the Alaska Range to McGrath (350-mile) and to Nome (1000-mile) in late February every year one week before the Iditarod Sled Dog Race. The shorter 350-mile race finishes in the interior village of McGrath on the Kuskokwim River and the 1000-mile race finishes in Nome.
If you have any ideas for future guests or episodes, please contact us atinfo@mountainbikeradio.com.

RELATED SHOW NOTES:ABOUT LEAH (from the Salsa Cycles website): “Leah Gruhn grew up in Rhode Island and developed a love of wilderness adventure in the far north as a teenager on summer canoe trips in northern Minnesota and the Canadian Arctic. After moving to Duluth, Minnesota, she became an avid cross-country skier and winter camper, and later competed in northern Minnesota’s Arrowhead 135 on cross-country skis. The following year, Leah raced the Arrowhead on fatbike and quickly got hooked on long fatbike races. In total she has competed in six Arrowhead 135s, the ITI, Tuscobia Ultra, and Actif Epica.”

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Drew is joined by guest, Ashley Korenblat. Ashley wrote a guest editorial on Mtbr.com titled “Say no to the Sustainable Trails Coalition” in December. Ashley is a former IMBA board president and CEO of Western Spirit Cycling Adventures in Moab, Utah. Wilderness access for mountain bikes and the stance of IMBA and the Sustainable Trails Coalition are divisive issues among mountain bikers, and are drawing a lot of attention from riders, local IMBA Chapters, and everyone involved with Wilderness Area access.
If you or someone you know is in charge of trail projects or organizing work days for your group, Drew wants you to email him. Share your projects and when your work days are, and he’ll share that information in future episodes.

About Ashley from the Western Spirit Cycling Website:
“Ashley Korenblat bought Western Spirit in 1997 and since then has spent many days riding unknown trails creating the plethora of trips that Western Spirit now offers. Ashley is a graduate of Dartmouth and Tuck Business School, a former bike racer, former wall street captive and possessor of entrepreneurial spirit.
She was president of Merlin during the titanium mountain bike heyday and served as the IMBA President working to sustain trail availability to everyone. Combine all that with the desire for a Moab lifestyle and an alternative view of a fulfilling career path, and you have the perfect recipe for the owner of a cycling tour company.”

ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Steve Domahidy, the mastermind of Domahidy Designs, gave Matt and Andrea an exclusive peak at his new Domahidy All-Mountain Pinion Hardtail. It’s a good listen because it’s a unique look behind the scenes of a new product from a small bike manufacturer and you get to hear straight from the man behind it all. Listen in as they chat about several details about the bike, how it rides, what to expect from it, how and when to order and much more.
----------
ABOUT DOMAHIDY ALL-MOUNTAIN PINION HARDTAIL
FROM DOMAHIDY DESIGNS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FEBRUARY 24 2016 DOMAHIDY DESIGNS RELEASES THIRD MTB, A PINION GEARBOX PLUS BIKE! Pre-Order Program Includes Free Set of Industry 9 Wheels Denver, CO –Domahidy Designs has been teasing pictures and information of their latest model for over two months now, and although speculation about the final product has been relatively close, the full reveal didn’t come until today, when the start-up from industry veteran Steve Domahidy let loose the details of their newest creation for his eponymous brand.
The new bike, the name of which is simply the description of the bike, is the Domahidy Designs Titanium All-Mountain Pinion Hardtail. “We lovingly refer to this bike as the ‘play bike’,” says company founder Steve Domahidy, “It is the ultimate go anywhere hardtail.” The frame is made from triple butted 3/2.5 titanium and is designed around a 120-140mm front fork. The rear triangle is boost 148 spacing with room for meaty 27.5+ 3” tires. The real treat of this bike is where the bottom bracket would otherwise be. The Domahidy Designs is configured to receive a Pinion gearbox, and in the case of the All Mountain Pinion Hardtail, it comes with a P1.12, Pinion’s twelve-speed system.
Driving the rear wheel are two Gates cogs and a Gates belt drive. “With the Pinion gearbox and the Gates belt, this bike is virtually maintenance free,” says Domahidy. “Our new motto is #riderinseandrepeat.” According to the Pinion web site, maintenance on the box only requires an oil change once every 10,000km (or 6,200 miles) using their special synthetic oil.
With the belt, no lube is required so the drivetrain remains clean and quite for much longer than any typical derailleur system. The gearbox does come with a weight penalty, about a pound and three quarters more than a SRAM XX1 1×11 drivetrain, but the lack of maintenance, no derailleur or external gears, and the central and low location of the weight means the bike’s go anywhere, shift anytime ability takes this play bike into epic new territory. “We’re not saying the derailleur is dead,” Domahidy says with a smirk on his face, “but this box is a game changer.”
The Domahidy Designs Titanium All-Mountain Pinion Hardtail will retail for $4995 which will include the frame, Pinion gearbox, and Gates belt drive system. For the launch of the new All-Mountain Hardtail, Domahidy Designs is offering a pre-order special. Between now and March 31, if you’re willing to let go of $5k until the mid-summer delivery date, Domahidy Designs will give you a free set of Industry 9 wheels, either their new Back Country 27.5+ wheels OR their new 29” Trail wheels, depending on how you want to set your bike up.
The front can be ordered with either standard 100mm spacing or Boost 110 and spoke and hub color can be made to order. “We considered going back to our Kickstarter community for this project, but Kickstarter takes 10% of everything you raise, so we decided instead to put that 10% back in the pre-order special and offer something better to the customer,” Domahidy explains, “This way, the customer gets an amazing set of wheels, worth roughly $1000, to match up to their new All-Mountain hardtail.”
You can preorder here: http://shop.domahidydesigns.com/domahidy-designs-titanium-275and-all-mountain-pinion-hardtail/dp/76
As with all Domahidy Designs MTB’s, the All-Mountain also comes with a one year IMBA membership and free IMBA socks, continuing on the Domahidy Designs giveback program and included in the Pre-Order special.
About Domahidy Designs:
Domahidy Designs is a new boutique bicycle company with only one mission: to make incredibly fun bikes to ride! At Domahidy Designs, the design means everything. These are production bikes, but the quality is every bit custom. Attention to detail is evident on every square inch of a Domahidy Designs frame, otherwise, Steve’s name wouldn’t go on it.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
This is a special episode of Just Riding Along. Matt spent a long weekend (100+ hours) being the assistant race director for Ben’s Frozen Events weekend near Minneapolis, Minnesota. This becomes a pro-Ben discussion about the weekend. *Note: Hi, this is Ben – I just want to note that I didn’t make Matt say any of this and it’s interesting to get a perspective about yourself from someone else. I learned plenty about my own strengths and weaknesses as well.

About Perry Kramer:
From the U.S. Bicycling Hall of Fame -
"Born 1959 in Santa Monica, CA., Perry was the 1979 Pro World Champion, winning the Pro Class at the 1979 JAG International World Championship. Other international championships include first place for an International Race in Japan, 1980; the Avro Invitational Fietscross race in Eidnhoven, Netherlands in 1980; and the New Zealand Summer Nationals in 1983. In 1976, he placed second for the NBL Nationals, and placed fourth as NBL Pro in 1979 and 1980.
In 1978, Kramer assisted Scot Breithaupt to establish SE Racing, a BMX company that today is owned by Fuji Bicycles. In 1979, he created and promoted a BMX bike named the "PK Ripper", using his initials. The bike is still being produced and sold today. In 1978, Perry began BMX schools and turned that into what was promoted in 1980 as "Perry Kramer's Pro School of BMX". That year's tour was sponsored by BMX Plus magazine."

About Mike Bell:
From the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame -
"Mike "Too Tall" Bell was one of America’s leading motocross and Supercross racers of the late 1970s and early '80s. He rode for Yamaha during his entire pro career. His biggest claim to fame was winning the 1980 AMA Supercross Championship, but Bell proved very versatile throughout his seven-year professional career, winning a total of 20 AMA and Trans-AMA nationals.
Bell was born in Los Angeles on August 8, 1957. His father, Bill, was an avid racer and well-known tuner who did development work for American Honda on its four-stroke desert racing machines during the late 1960s. Mike began riding at age 10 up in the mountains outside Los Angeles where his family had a cabin, but unlike many of his contemporaries who started much younger, Bell did not start racing until he was 14. Once he got on the track however, with a new Maico, it didn’t take long for Bell to go right to the top of the highly competitive Southern California motocross scene...." Read more here

They discuss their current lives as a dad, including the levels of raising their voices and what normal is. Daniel is a father of two young twin boys and shares his stories about what it's like.
ABOUT KIDS ON BIKES:
"Kids on Bikes mission is to inspire and empower all kids to lead healthy, active and happy lives through biking.
The freedom, joy, health and friendship that come from exploring your neighborhood by bike is one many of us cherish. In addition there are tremendous health benefits from riding your bike everyday. We want to make biking possible for kids from all walks of life, regardless of income. We believe that by transforming communities, one neighborhood at a time, we can make an incredible impact in the lives of children. Our top three priorities that will allow all children to own and ride a bike are to provide access to rideable bikes, to empower children in bike safety and to encourage kids and families to ride more frequently through organized events.
Make a decision to help. We are offering a simple solution to bring the joy, health, freedom and confidence that comes from riding a bike. For $300 (or $25 per month), you can sponsor a child to go through the Let’s Pedal earn-a-bike program where they participate in 10 weeks of hands on bike riding and at the end earn a new bike, helmet, lock and pump."

About Todd:
"Todd Wells was born December 25, 1975 in Kingston, N.Y. He fell in love with the bicycle at an early age starting with BMX from the age of five through sixteen. After graduating high school he picked up his first mountain bike and has been on a tear ever since. He found his way out to Durango, CO where he attended Fort Lewis College and began a pursuit of his career in cycling. Wells won two Cross Country Mountain Bike Collegiate titles for Fort Lewis College and the inaugural Semi Pro NORBA National Series title in 1996 before taking a break from his studies to become a full time professional cyclist with the Specialized Mountain Dew team.
His initial professional career was short lived as he decided to hang up his wheels at the end of the 1998 season and finish his collegiate studies at the University of Arizona. In 2000 he graduated from the University of Arizona with a B.S. in Management Information Systems and immediately started working for I.B.M., a company he interned with during his time as a student. Wells quickly realized that being a bike racer was better then having a “real” job and started training once again with his sights set on returning to the professional ranks. Some good results landed him a contract with the Mongoose Hyundai team and he was back on the circuit full time by the end of 2001.
By 2008 he was back where he started with the Specialized team and his results seem to get better with age. He has won fourteen National Championship titles across four disciplines. In 2011 he took on some endurance races and racked up wins in both the Leadville 100 and La Ruta de Los Conquistadors.
2012 might have been his best season yet with his third trip to the Olympic Games where he placed a career best 10th. He also managed to win his second PROXCT series title, second Pan American Championship title and stood on the podium at the Windham World Cup.
When Todd isn’t racing all over the world you can find him in one of three places; hanging out with his wife Meg, son Cooper and dog Winston, grinding it out on the golf course or hitting the dirt jump trails around Durango or Tucson, AZ."

About Steve:
"My name is Steve Domahidy. I am the co-founder of Niner Bikes and was the head of R&D for that company until 2011. I hold five US Patents, including the CVA suspension patent for Niner’s suspension design (US Patent # 7,934,739) with several more pending. Either directly, or under my supervision as head of R&D, I designed every single Niner frame, culminating in the Rip 9 RDO as the final bike I worked on before departing the company. My designs with Niner have won two IF Design awards and two Gold IF Design Awards, the most prestigious award given by the IF Design award body, as well as a myriad of other ride awards from around the world.
In 2011, after leaving Niner, I began working on a revolutionary new road bike design with Factor Bikes, a new UK based brand from parent company bf1Systems, an engineering and design firm working in Formula 1 racing, aerospace, and other automotive markets. I designed their new production frame, the Vis Vires, from the ground up, incorporating some of the design elements from their original concept bike, the Factor001. It was the most challenging project I’ve ever worked on, and has been launched with praise from press around the world for it’s forward thinking design, total integration, incredible ride, and advanced onboard technology. The Vis Vires is already starting to rack up awards, winning a coveted Gold IF Design Award at the 2013 Eurobike show and a d&i Award for design at the 2014 Taipei Bike Show. I am extremely proud of the work I’ve done thus far with Factor Bikes.
While the Vis Vires was coming to fruition, my mountain bike roots started to creep back into my system, infecting it with a desire to play on the dirt again. So, slowly but diligently, Domahidy Designs was born. I never thought Domahidy would make a good brand name, but I started playing around with it in Illustrator and came up with a brand identity that I could get behind; one that looked great, and placed emphasis on design rather than the name itself. It is a name, after all, that I believe in.
So every Domahidy Designs frame will be signed off by me. That is my seal of approval and also my guarantee to you that you will love your bike. If you don’t? Call me or email me, and I’ll make sure you’re taken care of, personally.
I am, and will always be, a kid at heart. One who loves to ride bikes. This is a passion, and one that I have been incredibly lucky to be successful in. I have the best job in the world: to design bikes that I want to ride, and in the process gain joy beyond measure in being able to share that passion with others who love to ride the same bikes. It is at once fulfilling and humbling to know that people around the world are already having a blast on bikes I’ve created, and Domahidy Designs will continue on that success."

REVELATION RECORDS
http://www.revelationrecords.com/
https://www.facebook.com/revelationrecords
Formerly of New Haven, Connecticut, it is now based in Huntington Beach, California. It was founded in 1987 by owner Jordan Cooper, along with Ray Cappo of Youth of Today, with the sole intent of producing the Warzone Lower East Side Crew 7". Within the year, they put out two more releases and a limited 4th pressing of Youth of Today's Can't Close My Eyes 7", which
had been originally released on Positive Force Records, just for the two of them to trade for vintage G.I.Joes and other action figures. In the first three years, the label put out 23 releases and pressed approximately 50,000 records, and it has continued to release an average of 78 albums a year.
Cappo left the business in 1988, to focus on his band Shelter and to start his own label Equal Vision Records (which he later sold to Youth Of Today roadie, former Revelation employee and friend, Steve Reddy), though his albums were still released by Revelation after that. The label put out several definitive hardcore and metalcore records in the late 1990s and early 2000s, with notable releases coming from Damnation A.D., Will Haven, Shai Hulud, Curl Up and Die, and Himsa. However, by the mid2000s, Revelation Records had seemingly fallen by the wayside, with very few releases between 2004 and 2006. However, the label is returning to its former stature as a premier oldschool hardcore label.
RECORD REVIEWS
Violent Reaction - Marching On
Originally conceived and executed as a oneman project by Tom Pimlott on the banks of the Mersey River in Liverpool, England, Violent Reaction recorded a demo in 2011, an EP in 2012 and an LP for Painkiller Records in 2013. Soon after, Tom relocated to Leeds to assemble a full band with an end result that finds the lads playing straight edge, hardcore punk with an obvious oi influence. With a lengthy American tour with their brother band The Flex under their belt, Violent Reaction is set to make their Revelation Records debut with "Marching On."

JUDGE - Bringin’ It Down
Judge stood tall in the face of changing times while helping to transform the musical landscape around them. Porcell, Ferraro, Siegler and Pincus may have had a list of priors that screamed “milewide X’s on the backs of your hands” (Youth of Today, Death Before Dishonor, Bold, Side by Side, Project X, Gorilla Biscuits, Young Republicans, Violent Children, Schism Records/fanzine, etc.), but even as they remained true to the edge, Bringin’ It Down moved towards a more sinister vibe and further promoted the nascent collision of metal and hardcore, while setting the stage for the likes of Integrity, Ringworm and Starkweather. This, in spite of—or maybe because of—having to re-record the album after a subpar session at Chinatown’s infamous Chung King Studios.
Not bad for a band that was originally designed to be a oneoff for Ferraro’s frustration with the “Edge ’til 21 Crowd.”

DROWNINGMAN - Rock n’ Roll Killing Machine
Drowningman was a hardcore punk band from Burlington, Vermont, which was active from 1995 to 2005. Formed in the fall of 1995 by Simon Brody, Denny Donovan, Javin Leonard, Dave Barnett and Todd Tomlinson, the band was heavily influenced by a variety of bands including Deadguy, Unbroken, Shotmaker, Unwound, Sunny Day Real Estate and Promise Ring. This musical amalgamation helped to pioneer the modern metalcore and mathcore musical subgenres. The band was known for revolving membership and frequent record label changes.
A first full US tour with The Dillinger Escape Plan was embarked on to support the release.[6] Soon after returning, production of the Rock And Roll Killing Machine record began in Washington, D.C. at the Salad Days Studio. A great deal of technical difficulty was encountered; Simon Brody had claimed in interviews the stressed work environment caused the tempo of many of the songs to rush and that record lost some of the previous efforts melodic counterpoint. Still, it was well received, earning a 10/10 in respected extreme music magazine Terrorizer and finding its way into many
publications' top ten lists for 2001.Aside from making regular appearances at Hellfest, Krazy Fest, Monster Fest and The New England Metal and Hardcore Festival, Drowningman began touring extensively in support of this latest record. They toured with hardcore and metal bands as varied as Earth Crisis, Glassjaw, Shadows Fall, Darkest Hour and Twelve Tribes. However, projected gigs for early 2001 were curtailed when the group lost its drummer. By May 2001 road action was resumed with regular partners Darkest Hour on the "BroDown 2001" tour.

Greg Gleason has won Trans Iowa two years in a row. After finishing the 10th annual race in 2014 in 26 hours and 22 minutes and a year of hard work and dedication, Greg was ready to rock at the 2015 Trans Iowa. It was all looking good until the forecast for the race weekend began to change. As the race approached, the gloom and doom sirens rang out among racers and Trans Iowa fans and followers.
It began raining on Friday afternoon and evening off and on. By late Friday night/early Saturday morning, it was pouring rain. A cold soaking rain. The roads were soaked and the forecast for Saturday was cold rain. The rain let up for the start at 4am in downtown Grinnell, Iowa, but soon the relentless wind and rain hit, and the field was decimated. Only one racer made Checkpoint 1 on time and that was Greg Gleason.
Listen in as Greg shares his story about Trans Iowa v11 and how he managed to get to Checkpoint 1 and complete 120 miles in 12 hours and 20 minutes. He shares his story about getting into gravel racing, preparing and racing for Trans Iowa, and gives a lot of other great information and thoughts. This episode is filled with great insight into racing one of the toughest races out there.

In 2012 I attempted my first Trans-Iowa, got lost, and was instantly hooked. I have been there every year since. I am constantly looking for that next adventure to keep me teetering on the line between insanity and clarity."

I get you up to date on a few items, then share thoughts about my first month being officially coached by Drew Edsall, and finish up with an interview with Travis Macy. Travis is a very accomplished athlete with many top finishes in several disciplines, including adventure racing, trail running, mountain biking, and snowshoeing. He's a husband, father, teacher, and author and is filled with perspective on bridging the gap between high level competition and raising small children. We discuss his new book, The Ultra Mindset, as well as raising kids and keeping life, training, and racing in balance.
I want to hear from you! If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact us at ben@mountainbikeradio.com.

The Ultra Mindset:
An Endurance Champion's 8 Core Principles for Success in Business, Sports, and Life
Travis Macy summited glacial peaks in the French Alps, rapelled into cavernous limestone caves in China, and ran through parched deserts in Utah. Most famously, he won the Leadman, a high-altitude combination trail running marathon, 50-mile mountain biking race, 100-mile mountain biking race, 10K run, and 100-mile trail run. Macy accomplished it without exceptional strength, speed, flexibility, high tech performance labs, or performance-enhancing drugs. His secret? A precise and particular outlook he calls the “Ultra Mindset,” principles for daily life which are neither mysterious nor the sole province of ascetics or elite athletes: embrace fear, rewrite stories we tell ourselves, and master the art of seeking help, among others. By applying the Ultra Mindset principles to other areas of life, anyone can find success that otherwise would have been impossible.

Mark Sirek of Salsa Cycles recently released a post on the Salsa Cycles Culture Blog called "Location Sensors: An Essay." In the post, he encourages cyclists to pick their heads up off their bars, move their eyes away from their gps screens, pull out the earbuds, and experience the world around us. Listen in to hear the audio version of that post as Mark reads his writing for you.
"Remember and work to replicate and build on that feeling of freedom we all felt the first time we rode somewhere, away from home. On that ride, even familiar places had new sights, sounds, and smells because we arrived exposed and free to absorb it all. The thing that hooked us all was about far more than the bike. Now think about all the other rides you’ve been on, and some of the particulars you may have missed. Go back if you can. Keep your eyes and ears open. Taste the “world famous” dish a town is known for, and wonder why if it’s weird. Keep asking questions."

About the author: Mark Sirek
I had to live on both coasts a couple of times to realize that maybe being born in the Midwest wasn’t just arbitrary. I’m drawn to the terrain here, and if you catch me with one of this region’s supreme IPAs in hand, I’ll talk your ear off about my favorite spots. I’ll always take every opportunity though to explore every nook and cranny anywhere I can on a bike, because that’s what makes me feel most alive.

James recently had the opportunity to attend a new fitness event, the Strength Matters Summit. Headlined by the likes of Dan John, Steve Maxwell, Mark Reifkand, Dave Whitely, Perry Nickelstein and a whole host of “who’s who” in the strength and conditioning world, it was a great chance to learn what some of the best in the world have been up to lately. Listen in to discover his thoughts about the event.

From James:
"Held in sunny San Diego, the Strength Matters Summit was a great time with some great people. The driving force behind Strength Matters are some great guys from England who have great vision for what they are trying to do with the summit. In a world full of entry level courses and seminars, Strength Matters is attempting to stand out as a source of advanced level information for experienced, successful coaches.
It was an event that I was really looking forward to and one that certainly did not disappoint. I came away with pages of notes and some really big “aha moments” that will help me create even better training programs. I also met some great people and was introduced to the art of nail bending and tearing a deck of cards in half.
In this podcast, I review my weekend and share my notes and thoughts from the presenters. There were some great lessons about creating great habits, how the big toe and obliques are the key to your power and why you need to massage your breathing muscles among many others. If you’re interested in the best training methods to help you improve your strength and cardio, then this is one you don’t want to miss.
If you are in the fitness field or are interested in the latest and best strength and conditioning info, you should also check out the Strength Matters website at http://www.strengthmatters.tv. They have an excellent podcast as well as some other great resources that I use myself.
That’s it for now, I just got back from a Dan John seminar so I’m sure I’ll have some great stuff to share from it as well. Until then…
Ride Strong,
James Wilson

About 40 HandsA fan of riding bikes with one gear, malt liquor, riding without knowing how many miles I’ve covered, and strip clubs that let you bring your own keg.

There is a large difference between just building a trail and creating sweet singletrack. Listen in as Drew continues his trail building how-to series with some sustainable design considerations, tool recommendations and a few random tips thrown in. Flow trails and technical trails are discussed with a focus on dumbing down trails, and whether or not that problem really exists. There's also a little insight on why trail builders build trails.
If you or someone you know is in charge of trail projects or organizing work days for your group, Drew wants you to email him. Share your projects and when your work days are, and he'll share that information in future episodes.

About Ultra Mental:
"This book is not intended to replace training that works. It is not designed to argue that tried and true methods of preparing for endurance events should be abandoned. It does not describe a shortcut to fitness, nor does it suggest an easy route to success in ultra-endurance efforts. What it does do is build a case for an idea that application of consistent high intensity training can provide a level of fitness from which a mentally tough athlete can approach, succeed at, and enjoy endurance sports..."

SEGMENT 2: DC HARDCORE
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington,_D.C._hardcore
The majority of the DC hardcore bands were made up of middle/upper class private school educated children of diplomats and other members of the Washington establishment at the time. Many grew up in the Georgetown and Northwest areas of DC, where they developed a sense of social justice by witnessing its injustices first hand - they were rich kids living in a privileged world, a social elite.
Some of the many legendary DC bands:
Minor Threat, Teen Idols, S.O.A., FUGAZI, Bad Brains, Dag Nasty, Swiz, Iron Cross, VOID, The Faith, Youth Brigade, Government Issue, Scream, Marginal Man, Gray matter, EMBRACE, Soul Side, rites Of Spring, Ignition, Worlds Collide, Damnation A.D., Battery, Ashes, Gauge,
SEGMENT 3:
Essential DC Hardcore Records from Our collections:
DAG NASTY - Can I Say
Original release 1986 Dischord Records
Re-Released in 2002 on CD - CD contains bonus material
Dag Nasty was a Washington D.C. melodic hardcore band formed in 1985 by guitarist Brian Baker of Minor Threat. Their style of less aggressive, melodic
hardcore was influential to emocore, as well as post-hardcore. Check them out here: http://www.daghouse.com/
BAD BRAINS - Rock For Light
Original Release 1983 on PVC Records
Reissued 1987 Caroline Records
ReMixed and Released 1991 Caroline Records.
Bad Brains is an American hardcore punk band formed in Washington DC in 1977. They are widely regarded as among the pioneers of hardcore punk. Bad Brains developed a fast and intense punk rock sound which came to be labeled "hardcore", and was often played faster and more emphatically than the music of many of their peers. The unique factor of the band's music was the fact that they played more complex rhythms than other hardcore punk bands, also adapting non-punk style guitar riffs and solos into their songs.
The second full-length album by hardcore punk pioneers Bad Brains, released in 1983.
A previous album, Bad Brains, was released in 1982 but only on cassette, therefore
making Rock for Light Bad Brains' first proper album.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bad_Brains
MINOR THREAT - Out of Step
Original Release - 1983 Dischord Records
Out of Step is the sole studio album by American hardcore punk band Minor Threat. It was released on 45 RPM vinyl in April 1983 through Dischord Records. After a temporary break-up in 1982, Minor Threat entered Inner Ear Studios in January 1983 to record Out of Step. Recording duties were handled by Don Zientara. While the lyrics on their early EPs were an outlet for MacKaye's message, the lyrics on Out of Step deal mainly with friendships and problems associated with them.

Founder, director, and current rider of The Underground Project, Casey Hildebrandt, joins the show to discuss what the group is all about and what lies ahead for team.
Founded in 2015, The Underground Project is a development cycling team, based in Wisconsin, that aims to fill the void with development opportunities within the United States. Casey Hildebrandt launched The Underground Project to raise the bar of development cycling teams and support young cyclists who need it most. Due to a continual lack of support with off-road disciplines of cycling, specifically in the Midwest region, he finally formed the Underground Project after years of thought and preparation.
The formation of The Underground Project stems from combined, interacting passions of bicycles and working with children and adolescents. Hildebrandt strives not only to raise the bar for developmental cycling teams, but to give back to the community by providing opportunities for youth to succeed, both, on and off the bike. His current and future career provide him with a unique understanding, skillset, capacity, and approach of how to successfully implement and direct The Underground Project.

James has been around long enough to see a real change in the way most riders think about skills training. When he first started riding mountain bikes almost 15 years ago, skills training wasn’t something he had ever heard of, much less considered an important thing to do. Listen in as James walks you through a lot of valuable information that you need to improve your skills on the bike today!
If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact us at info@mountainbikeradio.com. We also have advertising opportunities available, just contact us.
----------------------------------------
From James:
Fast forward to the end of 2014 and skills training has become extremely popular. Thousands of riders every year are attending some sort of skills training class or camp. Hundreds of thousands more are watching free skills training videos online.
Almost every serious mountain biker now recognized the importance that improving their skills on the trail can play in improving their fun and safety on the trail.
But this also means that a lot of riders are pretty frustrated with their lack of progress in that department as well. It seems that despite more riders than ever knowing “what” to do most riders I talk with still struggle to apply it consistently.
The problem is that these riders are trying to build their skills on a weak foundation. By not addressing the physical qualities needed to improve their skills they can’t get much further.
In the last part of my 5 Fundamental Elements of a Mountain Bike Training Program podcast series I explain how you can avoid this problem and avoid the frustration that comes with not being able to consistently improve your skills on the trail.
Show Notes:
5 basic trail skills you need to work on:
This is also the order I advise that you focus on the skills:
You can’t learn how to do it all in a weekend, Skills Training is a lifelong pursuit that requires focus and a plan.
It is important to understand how you can improve your skill development by filling in the movement and fitness gaps that are really holding you back. And once you see how your fitness and your skills are interconnected it starts to put training into a new perspective.
A good mountain bike training program should improve your fitness and your skills. And the only way to do that is to make sure you have the 5 Fundamental Elements of a Mountain Bike Training Program covered in way that meets our needs on the trail.
With the advice you’ve gotten from this podcast and the rest of them in this series, I hope you’ll be able to better do just that.
Until next time…
Ride Strong,
James Wilson

ABOUT CHRISTOPHER:
Hailing from England, Christopher graduated in 2000 with a first-class degree in Computer Science from Southampton University. From there he went on work for Yahoo! in London, and in 2003 they were kind enough to offer him the opportunity to move to San Francisco. Christopher then when on to work as a software engineer for a quantitative hedge fund.
Christopher has always loved riding, but once resident in sunny California he quickly found himself spending more and more time on the bike. Initially he enjoyed a significant improvement fitness, but as time went by, his health began to deteriorate. He continued to became extremely competitive and very sick, and now knows that the root cause of much of his decline was diet.
Christopher solved his health problems and rose through the ranks of amateur mountain biking, and last year the international governing body of cycling granted him a Pro license. He achieved this using his engineering smarts; all the information is out there, all that was required was a careful analysis of the complex arrangement of moving parts.
Now in 2014, through management of diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction and supplementation Christopher has achieved a new optimal level of health and fitness. He looks forward to helping you find yours too.
Both he and his wife, Julie, are graduates of the Kalish Institute and early in 2014 he qualified as a Certified FDN Practitioner.

MTB Strength Coach, James Wilson, is back with another piece of the five essential elements of a mountain bike training program - endurance. In this episode, he gives listeners some important information to consider when developing, improving, and maintaining endurance as it relates to mountain biking.
If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact us at info@mountainbikeradio.com. We also have advertising opportunities available, just contact us.
----------------------------------------------------
EPISODE BACKGROUND:
Endurance Training is by far the favorite subject of mountain bikers everywhere. No matter what they ride or where they are from, more riders want to know how to improve their endurance than just about anything else.
And for good reason. Endurance Training is the most specific of all of the physical qualities you can train and represents the pinacle of the Sports Specific Triangle. It don’t matter how much flexibility, strength or speed you have if you can’t sustain it on the trail where it matters most.
But this has also lead to a lot of confusion about Endurance Training, especially as it relates specifically to us as mountain bikers. Like I’ve pointed out before, the term “cyclist” is usually just a code word for “road riding” and no where does this matter more than when picking an Endurance Training Program.
In this new podcast I go over everything you need to know about Endurance Training for mountain biking. You’ll learn why it isn’t the same thing as cardio training, what the most valuable cardio training you can do is and some tips to help you pick the right Endurance Training program for you.
Endurance Training is the most important part of your training program but it has to be built on a solid foundation of flexibility, strength and speed. You also have to make sure you aren’t falling into the trap of doing more and more cardio instead of focusing on improving the quality of the cardio you are doing.
When you get it right, though, the right approach to Endurance Training can make a huge impact on your riding. Hopefully the info and tips in this podcast will help you find the right approach for you.
Until next time…
Ride Strong,
James Wilson

The second episode of the Riding Gravel Radio Ranch is one for the ages! Guitar Ted and Ben are joined by Bobby Wintle, who is the owner of District Bicycles in Stillwater, Oklahoma and the director of the very popular Land Run 100. They start off the episode with a recap of what has been happening behind the scenes of Riding Gravel since the announcement of the merger and then get into a lengthy discussion with Bobby about a full range of topics.
Bobby shares the full story of how he and his wife started District Bicycles and why it's not named Bike Love. He tells the tales about the risk he, his wife, and young daughter took on when they left Kansas with minimal money and all of their possessions to start a new life in an unfamiliar city. Bobby is clearly a passionate guy who loves to share his enthusiasm for bikes with anyone willing to join him. His start in cycling was in Emporia, Kansas, the hometown of the Dirty Kanza, and he has combined those early experiences with his passion and enthusiasm to create #UNLEARNPAVEMENT. Bobby shares the story behind #UNLEARNPAVEMENT and gives listeners something to consider.
Guitar Ted and Bobby also share some great insights into the "gravel movement," including where it's been, where it's going, and what the community is all about.
We hope you enjoy and encourage you to share your thoughts and comments with us!

Speed Training is an interesting topic for mountain biking because it isn’t really a part of many programs. Early on in training mountain bikers I realized that few of them had the ability to truly “tap into 100%” and that this was holding them back in a lot of different ways.
If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact us at info@mountainbikeradio.com. We also have advertising opportunities available, just contact us.
-----------------------------------------------------
EPISODE BACKGROUND:
Speed Training isn’t just doing some intervals as part of your cardio program and needs to be looked at and trained as a separate element. It can help improve your endurance, help you more easily power through tough efforts on the trail and as well as help you get faster when you need to lay down some power to the pedals.
As you can see, it can do a lot for you and should be part of your program this off-season. But if you’re like most riders you probably have a few questions like how is Speed Training different from just doing some intervals and what is the best way to use it as a mountain biker.
And that is why I put this podcast together for you. In it you’ll learn more about how Speed Training can help you as a rider and how you can use it to improve your speed and endurance on the trail.
Here are the notes from this podcast:
As you can see Speed Training can help you in a lot of different ways so make sure you aren’t neglecting it this off-season. If you have any questions or thoughts about Speed Training for mountain biking be sure to leave a comment below, I’d love to hear them.
Until next time…

This episode is the second part of a five-part series of MTB Strength Coach's essential elements of mountain bike training overview. What is strength training, what are the benefits, and more.

Strength Training has a long and interesting history in the world of sports. It wasn’t long after people started competing with each other that they figured out lifting heavy stuff made it easier to beat your opponent. From ancient Greeks to Roman Gladiators to the modern super-athlete, getting stronger has played a role in the success of countless athletes through the ages.
But while getting stronger has long been recognized as a way to get better at your sport there are still a lot of riders who are confused about how to best use it. And no wonder – you can hear a lot of conflicting and confusing advice.
On one hand you have those who tell us that strength training isn’t important and that you don’t need it. They say that there is no proof that getting stronger helps your performance on the trail. Some go so far as to claim that it can actually decrease your performance.
On the other hand you have those who tell you that Strength Training is one of the most important things you can do as a rider. They say that you need to focus a lot of your time and energy in the gym getting stronger. Some of these people go so far as to focus most of a rider’s time and energy trying to build a better mountain biker in the gym.
So which is it? Do you need to avoid strength training or do you need to focus a lot of time and energy on it? What are the real advantages of it for us as riders? And how do you make the best use of it this off-season?
Well, I’m glad you asked. In this podcast I answer those questions and more, giving you the lowdown on why you should strength train and how to get maximum transfer from the gym to the trail.
In this podcast I cover…
1. Myths and Misunderstandings about Strength Training
- What is Strength Training?
- Does strength training improve our performance?
- How much time and energy should you devote to strength training?
2. Benefits of Strength Training.
- It teaches the body to move more efficiently.
- It allows the body to access more motor units for Speed/ Power and Endurance training.
- It is one of the best ways to prevent overuse injuries.
3. How to use Strength Training as a mountain biker.
- Focus on training the basic human movements and filling in gaps.
- Focus on improving your 80% efforts instead of constantly hammering the 100%.
- Don’t turn strength training into cardio training.
- Basic workout template and periodization schemes (Rep Ladders, 5/3/2, Complex Circuits)
There’s a ton of great info in this podcast and you’ll learn all of my top Strength Training tips and strategies to help you develop the strength base this off-season that you need to ride strong all season long. If you have any questions about Strength Training or about off-season training in general please feel free to post them below, I’m here to help out if I can.
And in my next post I’ll go over Power/ Speed Training. The ability to quickly recruit your muscles in a highly coordinated manner is essential to being able to pick up speed quickly or power over obstacles. In other words, being able to tap into and repeat a true 100% effort, which is something a lot of riders seem to struggle with on the trail.
Until next time…
Ride Strong,

In this episode, the show host, James Wilson, kicks off a series of podcasts highlighting the five essential elements of mountain bike training. The first part is flexibility. He walks listeners through a great description of flexibility training, the benefits, and how to do it as a mountain biker.
If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact us at info@mountainbikeradio.com. We also have advertising opportunities available, just contact us.
EPISODE BACKGROUND:
MTB Strength Training Systems:
"Flexibility Training is probably the least understood out of all of the 5 Essential Elements of MTB Training. It is one of those things that we know we need as part of our program but we rarely spend the time and effort needed to real results.
It seems that all of the other elements of training are always “more important” and we skip Flexibility Training to fit more of them in. So why is it that even though we know that being inflexible isn’t helping us on or off the bike but we don’t spend more time working on it?
Over the years I’ve found that there are 3 reasons most riders don’t make better use of this important element of training.
First, they might have heard that they don’t need it or that it can actually decrease your performance. Second, they don’t understand the real benefits of it so they don’t buy into it enough to spend the time and energy needed. And last, most rides simply don’t know how to make the best use of Flexibility Training.
So in this podcast I try to clear these things up so you can make better use of this powerful training tool. In it I go over:
1. Myths and misunderstandings about flexibility training
2. Benefits of flexibility training
3. How to use flexibility training as a mountain biker.
Don’t make the mistake that so many riders make and skip over this important elements of training. It is especially important that you prioritize it now during the off-season so that you can restore the body from all of the riding you have been doing and set yourself up for a high performance, injury free season next year.
If you have any questions about Flexibility Training or about off-season training in general please feel free to post them below, I’m always happy to help out. And in my next post I’ll go over Strength Training and how you can make sure you get the most transfer from the gym to the trail, including how improving your strength can directly impact your endurance."

As teased in the previous episode, Vedders scientifically picks two beers to taste using the time-tested approach of choosing by the look of the label. He loves labels, so he walked into the liquor store, looked for attractive labels, and picked out two different beers.
The results? He picked out one beer that all three of the guys really liked and one that was a split decision. Listen in to find out more about the labels and the beer.

The topic that riders love to hate: intervals. Cyclists use every excuse in the book to avoid them - too hot, too cold, too windy, too flat, too hilly, wrong bike, wrong road, wrong trail, etc. In reality, it's often a lack of understanding of what intervals are, how they can be used, and how they should be used.
In this episode of The LW Coaching Show, Lynda kicks off a series of episodes discussing intervals for mountain bikers. She sets up some of the basics of intervals, including why you need to do intervals, the heirarchy of the best place to do your intervals, and what's with the myth of training 50% road bike and 50% mountain bike.
We welcome and strongly encourage listener questions, so if you have any questions that you would like to hear on future episodes, please contact Ben at ben@mountainbikeradio.com or Lynda at Lynda@lwcoaching.com.

About Cigar City Brewing:
“In a state known for theme parks, Cigar City Brewing has become a major attraction for those who appreciate and seek out excellent beer. It opened with a flourish and spread its reach quickly, appealing to both hardened beer geeks and brew novices with eyebrow-raising flavors and commitment to quality.
Capitalizing on the Latin culture and tobacco-manufacturing history of Tampa Bay, Cigar City highlights those strengths on its labels and in its beer names and recipes. Many of the beers it produces – Jai Alai IPA, Improv Oatmeal Rye India-Style Brown Ale, Cubano-Style Espresso Brown Ale – reflect the sensibilities and ingredients of Florida. One of Cigar City Brewing’s most sought after beers is a special release called Hunahpu’s Imperial Stout. The 11 percent ale is aged on cacao nibs, Madagascar vanilla beans, ancho chiles, pasilla chiles, and cinnamon.”- John Holl, The American Craft Beer Cookbook
At Cigar City Brewing we make beer we like to drink and toast those who choose to drink with us. Behind all our beer is the philosophy that quality is achieved by giving first rate ingredients to first rate people in a space where they are free to pursue their passion. We acknowledge that what we do at Cigar City Brewing isn’t for everyone, but we welcome all.

In this new episode of the MTB Strength Coach Podcast, James looks at three areas that you can apply the philosophy of when to "forge the blade" and when to "sharpen the edge," which are:
If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact us at info@mountainbikeradio.com. We also have advertising opportunities available, just contact us.
Episode background:
Last week James took his family to Glenwood Springs, which is a small town in the mountains about an hour and a half from where he lives. One of the main attractions is the Glenwood Adventure Park and Caverns, which is a small amusement park set atop one of the peaks overlooking Glenwood.
They have some really fun rides that add in the twist of making you feel like you are going to fall off a cliff. Their signature ride is a giant swing set next to a 200 foot cliff that swings you out and has you staring straight down the cliff. Even though you know you won’t die your “lizard brain” has a hard time believing it, making for a terrifying and fun experience.
The park itself has a western theme and as part of it they had a blacksmith shop set up. His little boy, Z, was mesmerized by the process of taking a lump of metal and turning it into a finished object. While Z was paying more attention to the fire and hammering (which was pretty cool), James noticed a pattern to his work.
He had two distinct phases to his work. The first was the taking the raw lump of metal and pounding it into the basic shape he wanted. He then switched gears and started using different tools and methods to refine the basic shape into the specifics of what he wanted.
This reminded James of a saying in strength training about “forging the blade vs. sharpening the edge”. This saying is used to remind people that there are in fact two distinct phases of training. This pattern applies to a lot of things during a mountain bikers career and failing to recognize it can make it hard to improve.
As you’ll learn in the podcast this concept can be used to help you make smarter training decisions based on your needs. You’ll also be able to better understand how workout programs you come across fit into the grand scheme of things better as well. What works for one rider may not work for you and knowing what you need will help you avoid blindly following the wrong plan.

This week Colin is really excited to announce a pretty special, and timely, guest to the Mountain Bikes Apart Podcast: none other than Kerry MacPhee, one of Scotland’s excellent Commonwealth Games mountain biking team.
Kerry started out as a triathlete, racing a fair bit in that discipline in past years. She added mountain biking to her tri training, though, and soon discovered she had a real knack for it. That, along with the fact that Mountain bike is, of course, far more exciting than skinny wheels and plodding along on foot, led her to mountain bike racing, and now to the commonwealth games.
In the interview Kerry talks about what it’s like to be part of her national team at such a big event, along with what training and prep she’s gone through to get there. It was great to get an insight into what it’s like to be an athlete at that level – something Colins thinks we’ve all dreamed about at some point!
As always, before we start, your feedback means tonnes to Colin, so please do get in touch via the following methods:

Mountain Biking Race Tips
Later in the Interview Kerry and Colin discuss mountain bike racing in general, and her tips on getting into racing in the first place. Her advice is really encouraging so if you’re dawdling about entering your first race, have a listen and get motivated. There are even a few training tips sprinkled in there to help you out.
They also discussed the Scottish Cross Country series a few times – that’s a great set of races to get started in as they offer a big range of levels, from total beginners and up.
Mountain Bike Coaching
On the subject of training, Kerry and Colin discussed the fact that it’s often a great idea to get a bit of coaching every now and again throughout your biking life, as you hit skill plateaus. They mentioned Chris Ball and his company, Dirtschool, who are pretty well known as a great option for that in Scotland, having coached many a young DH racer in their time. They’ve even got Ruaridh Cunningham and Rab Wardell on their team, previous downhill and a cross country champions respectively.
Where to Watch Kerry at the Commonwealth Games
Colin is pretty excited to watch the Commonwealth Games mountain biking now, as you might be able to tell! You can see it too on Tuesday the 29th July. Kerry is racing in the women’s race at 11.31 alongside Lee Craigie and Jessica Robert for team Scotland. Then the men race at 14.00, and the Team Scotland guys to look out for are Grant Ferguson, Kenta Gallagher and Gareth Montgomerie.
If you want to show Kerry your support then give her a cheer on Twitter at@KerryMacPhee.
The race is going on at Cathkin Braes, so if you want to follow in their footsteps, post commonwealth games, then you can find the trails here: Cathkin Braes.

In this episode of The Mountain Bikes Apart Podcast, Colin answers a question sent in by Gavin Clafton – “What’s your bucket list of UK trails?”
Colin thought the UK might be a little big to cover, so he decided to split it up a little. He's covering Scottish trails this week and aiming to cover the rest of the UK (and the world!) in future episodes.
On that note, if you consider yourself pretty expert in a region of trails then get in touch – he'd love to get you on the podcast and cover your area, wherever you are in the world.
Listener Question:
Here’s what Gavin asked in the first place:
"Hi. I mainly want to just say thank you for the time and effort to make the great podcasts. I travel a lot with work and save your podcasts for flights and those awkward meals for one where I’m sat with my earphones in. I have you for company! I’m new to mountain biking and just splashed out on a 2nd hand trek fuel 9 over Xmas. I’m pretty sporty though and very competitive so I’ve spent lots of time on YouTube, reading a great book by McCormack and Lopes called Mastering Mountain Bike Skills which I would highly recommend (Colin: me too!). This week I managed my first manual for a metre or so I’m feeling pretty chuffed. Anyway ideas for podcasts: In terms of trails I know a lot of stuff is out there but it would be great to have a top 10 bucket list of uk trails."Thanks for that great question Gavin. You'll find a summary below, but have a listen to the podcast for full details.

The Best Scottish Mountain Bike TrailsHere are Colin's top 5 Scottish mountain bike trails – let him know yours in the comments below! And listen to the podcast here for the full details of what makes them so great.
5. Laggan Wolftrax – a trail with a huge amount of variety, some great skills testing sections and a monster bit of northshore!
4. Kirroughtree – One of the most underutilised amazing trails in the country. Fast, flowing and home to the world (?) famous McMoab!
3. Glentress – The perennial UK favourite, and deservedly so. One of the biggest trail centres in the UK, if not THE biggest, with a huge range of trails, from XC to downhill Freeride. And the best facilities around.
2. Innerleithen – Glentress’ less pretty but more exciting big brother, and always a lot quieter. Check out the 3 drops on Caddon bank for a great challenge.
1. Golspie Highland Wildcat Trails – Even less visited than Kirroughtree, but one of the best trails in existence. The classic up and down, with the longest down around, and split into amazing, jumpy, bermy goodness followed by dark, tree lined, rocky technicals. A biker’s dream.

Colin has had some great feedback as usual, and here’s a highlight from Mark Saunders:
Hi Colin, Just a quick message to say hello and thanks for the podcast which is how I found your website. Keep up the good work there aren’t enough mountain bike podcasts out there. As for a request I am looking at F/S bikes at the moment can you recommend a decent one for a budget of around £1500RegardsThanks, as always for the kind words Mark. As to your question, have a look below for some info on the What Mountain Bike guide which aims to answer this. But, I will cover this stuff in future podcasts. It’s something Colin is asked a lot (for all sorts of price brackets and bike types) so he'll definitely be filling a hole there.
The What Mountain Bike GuideIn this episode Colin the What Mountain Bike guide to new listeners. It’s something Colin has been working on for the past two years to answer all of the questions that he gets from beginners and upgraders.
It’ll help beginners decide what type of bike to get in the first place, and it’ll help experienced bikers decide on what to upgrade, when and what brands to buy. The guide is currently available to read here on the site, or you can download a Kindle copy on Amazon for the lowest price he can make it.
Please let him know what you think of the guide – email me on the contact form, or drop a comment below.
Interview with Ruth Hallet from Trail42Colin has had a bit of contact with Trail42 as they’ve launched and grown over the past couple of years. It’s been great to see the success of their ethical mountain biking kit, such as the bamboo biking tops they produce which he has covered in the past.
Colin thought it’d be interesting to chat to Ruth about the company and plans for the future, so he asked if she’d come on the Podcast. They ended up talking products and biking and trails in their local area, so if you’re interested in the mountain biking industry or trails in the SW of England, then this’ll be worth a listen.

He joins the show to discuss the race, including pre and post-race information, race distance options, and course details.

The X100 is 100 miles of twisting single track that winds in and out of county gravel roads, two tracks and fire roads.

The X100 has some killer cross-country riding – until now – only by die-hard locals.

The Biker Cross trail has been the subject of a mini excavator assault, which has delivered a well-deserved total rebuild of this high traffic lower trail. The original Biker Cross was built as a dual slalom course, however in recent years the surrounding vegetation has had more of a singletrack route in mind. The rebuild has focused on bringing the course back to its former glory in this regard, now plenty wide allowing slower riders to take the lower route and more advanced riders to tackle the high line packed with bermy jibs on this flowing roller coaster of a trail. Every berm is being rebuilt with playful, springy transitions, and jumps through the flats have been torn down to make room for creative new features with multiple line options to switch up your descent.
Silver Star Mountain Resort, located in Vernon, British Columbia, recently announced that it plans to add 25 kilometers of new cross country mountain bike trails this year, with more in the works for 2015. When complete, the expansion's estimated cost will equal more than $250,000 and will provide riders of all abilities a more diverse selection of trail options. Silver Star began its expansion in 2013 to introduce a new XC, all-mountain riding component to the resort.
Silver Star has expanded its downhill trail network to provide riders with the option of riding a new intermediate trail from the summit to the mountain base. Jedi Mind Trick, a blue trail that runs from the base of the mountain to half-way up is being extended to the summit and the double black diamond trail Pro-Star – Walk the Line, that runs from the summit to half way down the mountain will be extended to the bottom. The trail network that will link existing trails with new trails are currently in their final stages of construction.
Mammoth will be opening the gondola this weekend, which is one week earlier than originally planned. MTBparks.com friend Eric Hunter tells MTBparks that trails at Mammoth Bike Park are in amazing shape right now.
The Snow Summit Bike Park at Big Bear flips the schedule to daily operations next week. This week the Snow Summit Trail Crew made their way over to Miracle Mile to put in some work! The Down-Flat-Up Bridge on Lower Miracle has been shortened and the mandatory-left when airing off the bridge will now line up better and take you into a new jump! Basically this section of trail is going to be faster and better. They hauled in tons of pavers to make the section ride faster.
There's still time to register for the VP Components EnduroFest coming up June 21 & 22.

June 2, 2014 - One of James' favorite guys to hear speak in the fitness industry is Gray Cook, one of the guys behind the Functional Movement Screen. Gray has an amazing way of putting complex concepts into simple, easy to understand terms that James really admires.
The other day James was driving around listening to a recorded presentation he had done when he dropped another gem -
Perception drives movement function and movement function drives perception.
This is a very profound concept that James has understood for a while but had trouble explaining to riders. It is so important, though, because it explains how your equipment and bike set up can negatively change how you perform without you even realizing it.
This podcast is part of a larger blog post. The below podcast goes into more detail than the blog post, so we encourage you to listen before drawing too many conclusions from the notes. James has posted his notes and discussion on his blog post. You can read them and get a good feel for what he is trying to explain.

Stage 6 is the "Tussey" stage. Perhaps the most awesome stage of the week, this route is one of the favorites. The 2014 version is a mix of what has come before, combining courses and trails from the first four years of trips through Rothrock State Forest.
New enduro segments on Long Mountain Trail and the never before included Hessick Trail augment the enduro segment count to three. Rocky singletrack lovers will love the scenic Tussey Ridge Trail. 42 miles with 4,883 feet of climbing.

Mike is full of stories of the early days of mountain biking in which he gathered many vintage photographs he took while honing his photography skills in his younger days. He has seen the progression of the cycling world and shares some great insight and the thoughts behind Salsa's slogan, "Adventure by Bike." Mike even hints at a future contest to win a trip to Italy.

Stage 5 is the "R.B. Winter" stage. This stage travels through a lightly used area that is among the most picturesque riding in Pennsylvania, and old tram trails from early 20th century logging cuts will leave riders with a new understanding of baby-head rocks.
Black Gap Trail is hard for riders to forget and for those who've experienced it and White Deer Creek Trail ranks among the top 10 trails in Pennsylvania. R.B. Winter State Park is a beautiful park with a cold, spring-fed lake at the finish. It includes four enduro segments with a wide variety in features.

Stage 3 is the "Gailbraith Enduro" stage. Racers compete over five separate enduro segments with no timed racing in between segments - pedal on to the next segment and go. The timed segments are then added to the overall general classification and the enduro category.
Stage 4 is the "Coburn" stage. This stage may have been the most exciting stage in 2013, as many of the top riders attacked in attempts to make moves in the race general classification.

Listen in to hear about the race, venue, course, and extras like the kid's races. Thane also shares some information about the upcoming final two races of the series.

The roots of Warriors Cycling began in 1989 at a ranch near the old mining town of Gold Hill in the mountains above Boulder, Colorado, with a race called the April Fools Spring Fling. The Arapahoe Warriors Cycling Club was born in 1994, and with that a fundraising race at Keystone was created called the Snake River Mountain Challenge. This grew over it’s 9 year history into a 4-discipline event and became the Finals for the Mountain States Cup State Championship Series which was co-founded and grew before eventually being sold to Yeti. A focus on endurance racing began in earnest with the Rocky Mountain Ultra Series in 2006, which rebranded as RME in 2009.

May 24, 2014 - In his first venture without Clara, Kyle decides he needs to use his podcast as an excuse to talk to his twitter crush! Astrid van Uden is the lovely Kiwi soigneur for Team Smartstop Self Storage and does her best to tolerate Kyle after an extremely long day working for the team.
Kyle relentlessly flirts with Astrid while they talk about her current team/family, how much she absolutely loves her job, and how she got into cycling. The two of them also go into what a day in the life of a soigneur is like, life on the road, how hard Astrid had to work to get to The States, and Astrid's love of American Cowboys. If you want to listen to someone shamelessly flirt a woman who has a lovely accent then this is the podcast for you! Is love in the air? Probably not, but don't tell Kyle that. He's fragile...

May 7, 2014 - The newest show to the MBR lineup.
This episode is a repost from the new show, MTB Strength Coach Podcast. They are restarting their popular podcast and you can find it here on Mountain Bike Radio. Expect to hear a brand new episode soon!
In this episode, James talks with fellow strength coach Al Painter of Integrate Performance Fitness. Coach Al works with mainly triathletes and century road cyclists, as well as some mountain bikers, using a lot of the same principles and influences as James does.
What Coach Al and his clients have found is that getting stronger has helped them ride longer, faster and avoid a lot of the overuse injuries that traditionally plague riders who log as many miles as they do. It is an interesting look at how someone applies a lot of the things James discusses to true endurance athletes and how a lot of mountain bikers who see themselves as “endurance athletes” can learn something from their experience.
Coach Al and James cover a lot of ground on this podcast, including:

These three amazing women are treats to listen to by themselves but together they are absolutely stunning. This is a podcast you don't want to miss!This week the two titans of women cycling reporting, Clara Beard and Sarah Connolly (Cohost of The Unofficial Unsanctioned Women's UCI Cycling Podcast), talk with the amazing Monique Hanley. Monique is an Executive Board Member of Cycling Victoria and Chair of Cycling Australia's Women's Cycling Commission. She has also ridden across Canada and the United States, as well as won a bronze at Australia's Track National Championships. Monique was also a member of Team Type 1's race team until a traumatic crash and recently gave birth to a beautiful baby.
Clara, Sarah, and Monique discuss how Monique got into cycling, got Cycling Victoria to where they are now, and how she developed templates for other federations to use as tools to enhance women's cycling. The ladies discuss how Monique broke through the Old School mentality related to equal prize money. Listen in to find out how Monique established a mandate that required any sanctioned race in Victoria to have equal prize money, what "equal is equal" means, and how silly it is for any race organizer to fight against equal prize money. Clara then talks to Monique about the importance of setting up junior/u23 races transition races, the growing popularity of cyclocross in Australia, and Clara suggests she teaches the Aussie's the importance of "the rubber chicken hand up." The trio then discusses the controversial topic of "podium girls" and how Monique banned podium models in Victoria. They finish the show with the topics of sports elitist culture and the impact it has on women's participation and how Cycling Victoria strives to retain new race license holders.Related Show Links:

The guide covers all of the questions he is most commonly asked, and is aimed at a range of riders from those just starting out in mountain biking, to those that are pretty good now but want to upgrade their current steed, either with a full replacement or starting to change out parts.

The BigLivers.com crew of Jeff, Pat, and Jonesy is back with another episode of The Big Livers Podcast straight from the Ozarks. In this episode, they try out two Deschutes beers - the River Ale and Chainbreaker White IPA.
The River Ale gets mixed reactions from the guys while the Chainbreaker gains some fans. The first taste of the Chainbreaker is a little rough, but it gets better with every drink. Overall, Jeff, Pat, and Jonesy find Deschutes to be worthy.
Watch for the upcoming blind taste test of light beers. They are going to have a little fun with beers like Miller 64 and similar low calorie beers. It will likely be a survival of the drinker who can tolerate the worst....stay tuned to an upcoming show!

Lessons were learned, debate was had, and Clara was thoroughly embarrassed this week on The Broken Spokes podcast! Friend of the show and women's cycling advocate, Dan W of the Unofficial Unsanctioned Women's UCI Cycling Podcast, joins the show. After Dan discusses the Australian meaning of "Double Down," he and Kyle thoroughly embarrass Clara. She tries her best to curtail Dan and Kyle but fails miserably. Dan shares how he became interested in women's cycling, and reveals that he is an amazing uncle to his nieces. They discuss issues with podium women, equality in the sport, and the cultural changes that need to happen if we ever expect equality to be a reality. Then Clara hassles Cat 5 racers, Kyle gets a life altering lesson, and the trio discusses the slippery slope that happens when women start using their sexuality to further the sport. Kyle wraps up the show by (shockingly) teaching listeners about the differences between a man and woman's bike and Dan talks about hunting Kangaroos on the farm in Australia.Related Show Links:

This time around it was Colin's first 24 hour mountain bike race, the Relentless 24. As you’ll find out, it didn’t go quite as planned…

In this episode, Colin goes back to one of his more popular posts which centered around mountain bike maintenance, and how often average riders do it. Colin was curious at the time about how often other people wash their bike, strip it down or even give it a proper service, because he had gone quite a while with very little of any. Colin admits bad form, especially from someone who builds his own bikes and enjoys a good tinker with them from time to time.

Guitar Ted shares what he found at Interbike in Las Vegas. Three areas of cycling have really taken off.
Fatbikes have blown up over the last three years and now companies are commonly offering carbon goodies, including forks, frames, and rims. Many other fatbike options have also come to market, including tires, gear, and other components. This year the 27.5 inch wheel size has taken over this year's news and it has become a mainstay in many company lineups. In the background, the gravel riding scene has been experiencing huge growth in rides and races filled to capacity.
Listen in to hear a discussion about what Guitar Ted saw of each of the three groups in Vegas.

Listen in as they discuss everything from blood testing for performance and recovery to the Cross Vegas race and the Boo Bus. Listeners will get some great insight into Rotem's studies and how they apply to performance.
The Boo Bicycles - TrainingPeaks Cyclocross team will be based around young and promising Colorado riders Skyler Trujillo and Rotem Ishay.

Skyler caught the nation’s attention by being selected to race in the U23 Cyclocross World Championships last February in Louisville, KY. Though Rotem raced a more regional cyclocross schedule last year, he had strong results against local professionals and has three medals from Collegiate Mountain Bike and Cyclocross Nationals to his name in the last year alone.

The Vapor Trail 125 is one of the toughest 1-day mountain bike races out there. It is coming up in a few days, so it's appropriate to upload this archived episode.
-----------
Tim joins the show again to discuss his latest adventure, the Vapor Trail 125. He tells his story of what it's like for someone coming from near sea level in Duluth, Minnesota to the high alpine terrain of the Central Rocky mountains to begin a 125-mile, 20,000-feet-of-climbing race at 10pm and finish a dirty, beaten, and triumphant soul.

The discussion about armadillos continues on from last week's show. They crawl, they squeal, they jump out in front of you. Listen in to hear more about those weird little creatures.
They share their experiences at this past weekend's Skool of Hard Nox 50 in the Tombigbee National Forest. Andrea took the win, Matt had a bad day, and Kenny sounds like it went ok, despite a possibly heart attack, stroke, or perhaps just a lack of fitness and toughness. We'll let you decide.
The discussion of race tshirts became a lengthy, somewhat spirited debate about what they should be. If race directors want an honest opinion, this is the show. Bottom line, don't just give out whatever shirt is cheapest because it's likely to end up as a rag...immediately.
If you don't have time to listen to anything, at least skip to the end and listen to the screeching armadillo. Warning: don't be drinking anything when you do.
Be sure to check out the Twitter discussion that was going on during the show.

Jeff Kerkove joins the show to discuss his recent experience at the Breck Epic in Breckenridge, Colorado. He, along with teammate, Yuki Ikeda, took the win in the 6-day Men's Duo Category. They had a great race all week, taking the win in each of the individual stages. It did not come easy though. Jeff and Yuki pushed each other hard, raced as a team to get through the painful climbing and enjoy the sweet, flowing singletrack to grab the final #1 and much coveted belt buckle.
The Breck Epic is a 6-day and 3-day stage race based in the middle of one of the best mountain biking areas in the country and world. It is composed of large, backcountry loops between 35 and 50 miles run in a cloverleaf format; each loop starts and finishes within a mile from downtown Breckenridge and utilizes the sprawling network of trails in both Summit and Park Counties.
The Breck Epic's first rule? It's "Don't Be a Dick."
