These beautifully handcrafted ceramic mugs are the creative brainchild of Amanda Amann. Each mug is unique, a true one~of~a~kind, and made with love. You can lean more about “Amanda Panda” on the recent Meet the Maker post. These will be available for sale in the BoD Store on Wednesday, April 28th at 12pm CST. Until … Read more
I’ve been following Amanda on instagram for a while because I enjoying watching her create beautiful ceramic pieces. One day it dawned on me….Bikes or Death coffee mugs! I came to her with the idea (my only contribution being the Ride Your Damn Bike message on the bottom) and what I got back was more than I could ever imagine.
My guest on today’s episode with John Watson is one that I’ve been looking forward to for a while. We had plans to record this one a while ago, but covid put it on pause. On my recent trip to AZ and NM I was able to meet John at his Santa Fe office where he runs The RADAVIST.
It’s always an extreme pleasure to sit down and chat with Lael Wilcox. Her positivity and honesty is infections as is her drive to push herself to extremes all in the name of bike racing. She’s an inspiration to so many of us in this community and I am no exception. She has been a huge source of inspiration for me as I dipped my toe into the bikepacking waters.
This episode is the first one to come from my recent road trip to New Mexico and Arizona to interview guest for the podcast. My first stop was in Las Cruces, NM to meet up with Matt Mason to ride a portion of the Monumental Loop. We rode up to the base of the Organ Mountains and camped in perfect weather. In the morning we recorded this episode under little outcropping before descending 10 miles back to town on some epic singletrack.
Yesterday John posted a feature of my bike on his website The Radavist. You’ll want to be clicking that link to go check them out! Today it’s my turn to focus my Lens on John Watson.
On March 6th, 2021 twelve college students in the Adventure Media class at Texas Tech University set off on a bikepacking trip as part of their course curriculum. This year the classes challenge was the Caprock Canyon State Park and Trailway, which in total was 66 miles with very little climbing, but the wind made up for what the elevation profile lacked!
This weekend a group of local bikepackers dusted off our bikepacking gear and our social skills to go bikepacking for the Spring Break weekend.
Miles is BACK! The first time we did an interview was in his van at the Bikepacking Summit in 2019. This year thanks to COVID we are relegated to Zoom, but that didn’t stop us from having a good ole time.
Quickly becoming known as one of the most challenging bikepacking routes in the country, this self-supported race departs from downtown Fayetteville on Saturday, Oct. 9. The race is a 1,000+ mile loop following the Arkansas High Country Route, a series of three gravel and paved road loops that connect several of the state’s stunning natural regions, including the Ozark and Ouachita mountain ranges and the Arkansas River Valley.
