The gang is catching up on life and it's been changing rapidly. Matt spent February out on the road, including at Old Pueblo. Andrea has been hunkered down searching Ace Hardware for bike pieces and Kenny has been doing Kenny things, including getting fan mail (ok...it's just a question, but still..).

Guitar Ted sits down with Marty Larson from The Heywood at Impact Coffee Bar in Decorah, Iowa to discuss The Heywood, which is planned for May 16, 2020. Listen in as they chat all about the ride, the area, and why you should head over to Northfield in May.
What is The Heywood? “The Heywood is a gravel road ride taking place in the rolling countryside south of the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro plex. We call it Deep South Metro. You may know it as Northfield. Northfield is a college town of approximately 20,000 people. We have a thriving downtown with cafés, bakeries, and lots of stores with actual personality.
Rather hang out in the woods? We’ve got that covered too. Nerstrand State Park and Caron Park are a ten-minute drive from our start line. Both are on route even! In other words, bring your family! There’s lots to do.”

MTB Ben kicked off his year with a trip to an event in Pittsfield, New Hampshire. Pedal4Paws was a fat bike and snowshoe event to benefit The Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire held at Camp Graylag, which is a 300-acre woodland preserve on secluded Wild Goose Pond in Pittsfield, New Hampshire. He sat down with Madison, Amy, and Eric Kriete to discuss what the event is all about, how it got started, how it helps animals in need, and history about the Graylag area.

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Jay sits down with Ben during lunch to discuss what makes the Park City area special and share what the Park City Point to Point is all about.
The Point to Point course is a true point 2 point. Thanks to the plethora of trails, you will never be on the same trail twice. You will be riding singletrack for over 90% of the race (that’s a lot of 1-track) and the total distance is 75 miles with around 12,000′+- of climbing, all while traveling through two of the country’s premier mountain resorts. It will challenge your mental prowess, yet it will have you grinning from ear to ear.
