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

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!

When Miles Arbour dropped his original BoD Theme Song Live on Episode 30 I was equally flattered and blown away. Since we’ve been running it at the beginning and end of each episode I’ve received numerous messages from people who echo my sentiments.

Bailey Newbrey, owner of Sincere Cycles, and 2018 2nd place Tour Divide finisher swept BOTH categories. His episode was downloaded 4,792 times in the first 30 days. His episode also received the most number of votes from our online pole getting 10% of all votes.
