ep. 64 – Bikepacking Basics: You ask, we answer!

March 1, 2021February 19, 2021 by Patrick Farnsworth

In this episode we use a recent trip to Big Bend National Park as the backdrop to answer your questions. Ultimately, we received 41 questions, that boiled down to 18 questions and we tackle them all! The most requested topic was on Route Building, which was really perfect because our trip to BB was a route finding mission. We saved that one for last and answer your other questions as we build up to it, but you won’t want to miss “How to make cake in the backcountry” (video coming soon) or our thoughts on e-bikes!

Ep. 63 – Jacob Hora

January 17, 2023January 26, 2021 by Patrick Farnsworth

The first episode of 2021 is with the very inspirational Jacob Hora. At only 15 he’s accomplished more than most regardless of age. I didn’t know who he was before watching the Trackleader dots of Jay Petervary’s Fat Pursuit. The first place finisher was Jacob, so I clicked on his profile and was immediately intrigued when I saw he was only 15!

Ep. 62 – Kait Boyle, FKT on the kokopelli

December 24, 2020December 10, 2020 by Patrick Farnsworth

On the morning of Christmas Eve 2018 Kait Boyle was at the height of her ultra endurance racing career, having won the 24 hour World Championship in 2018 and set a new record on the AZT 300. Her life would take an unexpected turn later that day when she was involved in a horrific vehicular accident that left her with a long list of injuries and a long path to recovery.

Ep. 61 – Ted King, FKT on the ARHCR

December 24, 2020November 25, 2020 by Patrick Farnsworth

From 2006 to 2016 Ted King was a professional road cycling before switching to gravel where he took 1st at the DK200 in 2016 and 2017. Earlier this month he completed the 1,000+ mile Arkansa High Country Race in first with a time of 4 days, 20 hours, which was good enough to snag the FKT set by Jay Petervary in June of this year.

Ep. 60 – Aaron Chamberlain, Tour de Texas

December 24, 2020November 18, 2020 by Patrick Farnsworth

I caught up with Aaron 4 days after he finished becoming the *first person to circumnavigate Texas on a bike! In total he rode 3,014 miles in 58 days and he wrote weekly articles about his journey that you can read on Texas Monthly.

Ep. 59 – Erik Binggeser aka Truemarmalade

December 24, 2020November 13, 2020 by Patrick Farnsworth

Erik and I met at a Bikes or Death group bikepacking trip right before the world shut down thanks to a coronavirus. Since then he’s been wholed up in his Austin apartment in lockdown. With some extra time stuck indoors he’s been finding ways to stay active and engaged with the cycling community.

Ep. 58 – Chris Burkard

January 15, 2021November 3, 2020 by Patrick Farnsworth

Chris Burkard has become a personal source of inspiration for me and it was an honor to have him back on the podcast. He was first on way back at Episode 17 to tell us about his WOW Cyclothon Record that he set in 2019. That episode really fired me up and motivated me to push myself in more ways than just on the bike. Chris’ passion for life is contagious and I highly recommend you go back and listen to ep. 17, although you don’t need to listen in order to enjoy.

Ep. 57 – Talib Abdullahi, Black History Ride

January 16, 2023October 9, 2020 by Patrick Farnsworth

In July Talib Abdullahi created and organized a Black History Ride in Austin, TX. Motivated by the BLM movement he wanted to create a positive event that would both be education and fun. Originally, he was thinking it would be him and maybe 20 of his friends, but word quickly got out, and within a week he was leading his Black History Ride with 400ish cyclist in tow.

Ep. 56 – Patrick Farnsworth, Host of BoD

December 24, 2020September 22, 2020 by Patrick Farnsworth

If you’ve been listening for a while you’ve probably heard me talk about my lack of expectations for the podcast. Not in a self-depricating way, but in the way that you do something that you’re passionate about for a community you love with no expectations. I didn’t tell anyone about the podcast or promote it outside of an obscure post on a small instagram account, but that didn’t stop me from quickly realizing not only the popularity of Bikepacking, but the desire for these types of interviews and stories.

Ep. 55 – Dave Nice, aka Fixie Dave

December 24, 2020September 16, 2020 by Patrick Farnsworth

This weeks episode I chat with Dave Nice who is known on the interwebs as @fixiedave. His username gives away the fact that he rides fixie, but it says nothing about his completion of the Tour Divide in 2012 after attempting it 5 times before.
