ABOUT THE EPISODE
This episode contains, quite possibly, the greatest number of listener questions to ever come across the JRA airwaves. Andrea, Matt, and Kenny tackle several questions and comments on topics from backyard pump tracks to armadillos and vision.
And...a listener in Florida asks about coil spring shocks and you get to hear more about Matt’s new Stache (as if you haven’t heard enough during the last four episodes.)

HOUSECLEANING/LISTENER QUESTION
First race of the season is in the books
“John and Kyle,
Great to hear a new episode guys! My favorite show to date for sure. A question I've had for you guys that I've been wanting to ask for a while is whether or not either of you actually listen to music when putting in miles on the bike? I definitely refrain from plugging in when riding singletrack most importantly due to just being aware of other trail users, but when it comes to gravel or road riding, are tunes a necessary component for your training? Finally, thanks for the tip on Achilles! Super sweet stuff. Take care guys.
Grant”
RECORD REVIEW
World Be Free – 'The AntiCircle'
Released: February 5 2016 – Revelation Records
World Be Free's story began in the fall of 2014, when Scott Vogel (Terror, Buried Alive), Joe Garlipp (Envy), Andrew Kline (Strife), and Sammy Siegler (Judge, CIV, Rival Schools) met monthly to write classicinfluenced, melodic and positive hardcore. All of this developed without a label, budget or any mention to the outside world. When Siegler scored some recording time at Hurley, they flew in Arthur Smilios (Gorilla Biscuits, CIV) to cover on bass and hustled into the studio. Vogel and Terror bandmate Nick Jett then tracked vocals at Jett's studio, passing the ball to Walter Schreifels (Rival Schools, Quicksand, Gorilla Biscuits) for one final guest spot.
With their album finished and its release fast approaching, Top 5 – Primal Reaction Records. Something about these 5 records speaks to that dark place in your soul. Pure raw aggression and power..
UNBROKEN – Life Love Regret – 1994 New Age Records
Life. Love. Regret. is everything that hardcore is. It is the heart, the soul, the sound, and the attitude. The music is loud and in your face, but most importantly, passion is put at the top. This album is a monument by a monolithic band. From the crushing riff and sinister notes at the beginning of "D4" to the ending feedback in the nine minute "Curtain."
Breather Resist – Only In The Morning – March 25, 2003 Deathwish Inc
Breather Resist formed in 2002 and recorded 8 songs, 4 of which were on handmade demos. These 8 songs became their first EP, "Only in the Morning", released on Deathwish, Inc.. Their first LP, Charmer, was released on Jade Tree Records in October 2004, having been produced by Kurt Ballou. In December 2005, lead singer Steve Sidoni left the group; Buried Alive – Death Of Your Perfect World – April 20, 1999 Victory Produced by Steve Evetts at Trax East Studios. It is the band's only album with Jesse Muscato on drums.
CURSED – I – February 23, 2005 Deathwish Inc
Formed in 2001 a year after the breakup of The Swarm aka Knee Deep in the Dead. Known for their trademark nihilistic and dystopian lyrical themes, stark classic horror imagery and loud, abrasive live shows.
Integrity – Those Who Fear Tomorrow – 1991 Overkill Records
Integrity's For Those Who Fear Tomorrow is a hardcore juggernaut that has lurked in infamy for over 15 years. Recorded in 1991, For Those Who Fear Tomorrow is often credited as on of the first true metalcore" albums. While hardcore crossover bands like the Cro Mags and Corrosion of Conformity had existed before Integrity, few were prepared for the world Integrity brought to life with their debut album. FTWFT's razor sharp metallic edges, driving hardcore verses, and gloomy breakdowns set a stage for one of hardcore's most messianic and charismatic front men: Dwid Hellion. The album has been issued in close to 10 different editions and formats. It has never received proper distribution or promotion, but it has survived: a truly bastardized child of hardcore, metal, and a darkness of the soul.

Intro: Minor Threat ‘Out Of Step’
News: UNBROKEN ‘D4’
Housekeeping: Breather Resist ‘Just Do It’

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Drew is joined by guest, Todd McMahon. Todd contacted our team at Mountain Bike Radio to get on and share his thoughts on mountain bikes in Wilderness Areas. Todd owns mountain bikes himself and mountain bikes from time to time. He is better known as a hiker, recently completing the Ice Age National Scenic Trail. He believes that the Pacific Crest Trail should be kept for it's original users, hikers and horseback riders and has created two pages to share information about the trail.
This episode will give you some thoughts from someone who isn't neck-deep in the cycling world and will offer perspective of how others view mountain bikers.
Mountain Bike Radio officially endorses both IMBA and the Sustainable Trails Coalition. We feel that IMBA has played an integral role in all of our current access and local and regional relationships and will continue to foster those important relationships, while the Sustainable Trails Coalition can pick up in efforts that IMBA isn't. Together, the groups provide some great advocacy for all of us.
If you or someone you know is in charge of trail projects or organizing work days for your group, Drew wants you to email him. Share your projects and when your work days are, and he'll share that information in future episodes.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
This is another special edition of The Last Aid Station. Mark brings you the most in-depth Absa Cape Epic coverage you’ll hear anywhere. Listen in as he rolls through the action and results of this year’s 2016 Absa Cape Epic in South Africa.
About the Absa Cape Epic – from the website: “The Absa Cape Epic must be completed by both members of a two-person team. The route changes every year, leading aspiring amateur and professional mountain bikers from around the world through roughly 800km of unspoilt scenery and 15 000m of accumulated climbing, over some of the most magnificent mountain passes in South Africa.
The Absa Cape Epic is the most televised mountain bike stage race in the world and the only eight-day mountain bike stage race classed as hors catégorie by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI). This official UCI status makes it a highlight on the professional racer’s calendar. The Absa Cape Epic also attracts aspiring amateur riders wanting to test themselves against the best. It is a full-service race, meaning that everything is taken care of from the start – all riders need to think about is riding.”
