Since they last recorded, Andrea has been touristing in Memphis, Matt rode the trainer on his Stumpjumper, worked on the Rover, and has a Crave conundrum, and Kenny bought a new E-Moto.

Matt is back this week after crashing his balls off last week. He tells his side of the wreck story. Kenny has been on both of his motorbikes, and Andrea has taken to local Strava racing and fills Kenny in on her Leadville shop time.

That's right, y'all. I'm recording this alone and at the last minute. What does that mean? I'm not editing out the dog barks and "UMs" like I normally would, because I thought y'all would appreciate getting a sort-of real episode instead of a throwback.  This week, I'm talking elk, cool (and not cool) shit I saw at Leadvelo Bicicasa helping them with the racer rush ahead of the Leadville Trail 100 Mountain Bike Race, and I talk about my side of Matt's bike wreck on the Colorado Trail.  New...
