Like many of you I didn’t know who Andrew Onermaa was before he signed up for the 2020 Arkansas High Country Race. And if you still don’t recognize his name, maybe you’ll know him as the guy who was going toe to toe with Ted King before he ultimately went on to set an FKT. Andrew withdrew from the race around mile 700 after pushing himself further than ever before. Literally pushing his mind and body to it’s limit.
I wanted to hear Seth’s story about his journey from almost losing his life in Feb. of 2013 after being ran over by a car while commuting on his bike. To then go on to set a Singlespeed FKT on the Arkansas High Country Race. The collision nearly cost him his life, but a year later he competed in the 2nd ever LandRun 100 (Now Midsouth) and he finished! All while wearing an eye patch as a visible reminder that he was still recovering from the injuries he sustained.
On this episode we get to know Kevin and some history on RWGPS and then we get into the maps! And we go deep. But, we also cover very basic topics. This episode was designed with the hope that it will be a resource for you to build your own routes, modify existing ones, or fly by the seat of your pants using heatmaps.
This route is the product of a my recent podcast Ep. 71 with Ryan Stoyer. When I reached out to him to see if he’d be interested in coming on the podcast he was quick to say yes, but he had one condition. He wanted to go bikerafting. Only one problem, I’d never been bikerafting … Read more
When I contacted Ryan Stoyer about coming on the podcast it was with the idea that we would talk about his unique lifestyle and how it allows for him to life a more fulfilled life. I still like that topic, but Ryan had other ideas. After the official BoD instagram invite was sent, his reply was an enthusiastic yes, followed by a suggestion, “how about we go bikerafting?”. My response was equally enthusiastic and I gave no thought to the fact that I’d never been bikerafting, or had a raft, or new how to build a route, etc etc.

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.
