In this episode a fire is raging near Matt and Andrea while Kenny discusses how his car drinks oil like Travis Pastrana drinks Red Bull.

Bobby Wintle race director of Land Run 100 and owner of District Bicycles sits down with Matt to discuss the 2017 Land Run 100. They cover how the race has grown and transformed over the last 5 years, why Bobby and Crystal chose to #unlearnpavement, and what to expect in 2017 at the Land Run 100.
About Land Run 100:
From Bobby "The roads in which you will be riding have a history and a soul that breathes deep. These roads are infinitely red, unforgiving, and unique. On April 22, 1889, the cannons fired signaling the first Land Run that opened up the Unassigned Lands of the Oklahoma Territory, which included Stillwater, OK the home and start/finish line of the Land Run 100. Oklahoma may seem like the last place you would consider traveling to for an event…until now. If you love roads that change every time you ride them, and seem to take on their own personality, Land Run 100 is the event for you."
Registration will open on Saturday, November 19th and will be limited to a combined field total of 1,000 participants for the 100 and 50 mile option. If registation is full please add yourself the wait list as registered people will inevitably have conflicts that arise between now and race day. For the first time ever the midway checkpoint will be in Guthrie, OK on a course that is 100% planned, preridden, and approved by Bobby.
If you have any ideas for future guests or episodes, please contact us at ben@mountainbikeradio.com.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Nathan, Tani, and Auk have pushed past the year mark of The Path Podcast! It's been a great year following along with the guys. They go through their usual bike discussions.
In this episode, they chat about various topics before giving some thoughts on tires and then answer two listener questions. Cameron enjoyed hearing about Sedona and might stop by the shop. He is wondering how far is too far when it comes to slacker and lower. The other listener, Kris, thinks that protection is a good idea but notes that there was an instance of injury due to a bike pump in a pack.
The Path guys welcome all of your questions and encourage you to send them an email with the subject "Podcast Question" to sales@thepathbikeshop.com.
