Thank you for your patience with us as we navigate very busy summer schedules but we made it back this week for an episode and had a lot of fun with it!!

We start by recapping Erin's Downhill Mountain Bike Race and Kayla's Boise 70.3 then we do a little this or that questions courtesy of Carleigh Moore and finally into questions 

1. Thoughts on doing an inaugural race. Do you mind doing them? Would you rather wait a year to see how it went? 
2. Favorite top tube and rear bike storage for tire repair, food, etc
3. What’s a piece of advice you always give but sometimes forget to follow yourself?
4. When is it worth investing in better gear, and when is it better to just train smarter?

Thank you for listening!

Kayla and Erin
