A special hot-off-the-press episode where we check in with Michael after a successful and highly entertaining Tulsa Tough weekend. We chat about why the race is special (the Super Bowl of criterium racing), get a report from each day, whether they ever talk during a breakaway, was he really drinking a beer during the race, and how the weekend was a success without winning. Of course, we go deep on “The Bunny Hop Heard Around the World,” his unusual tire set-up, why the live feed commentators were so negative, his power numbers, and why he starts at the back of the race. We get into how racing Basso Diamante is like a Ferrari in NASCAR, being a part of the Basso family, the +SpeedStudio program is built by members and sponsors, what’s next (lots of dirt), and why he chooses to race alone.This is a no-holds-barred episode, so buckle up that chin strap.
