FUELTALK

This Dirt Life Episode 23 with Brooke Froelich: Brooke is based out of Salt Lake CIty, UT and is an avid climber, biker, skier and incredible Mother. I met Brooke at the Specialized Ambassadors summit this past year and knew instantly I had to talk more with her. Brooke is doing an amazing job of encouraging other women and especially mothers to get out and enjoy the outdoors, with and without your kid. She is a great inspiration to me, and gives me confidence that if I too were to become a mom, that life is not over… That might sound dramatic but I do hear that or similar remarks a lot. You can follow Brooke’s latest project “growing a skier’ on youtube!

Devotion Frees Episode #59: Barrett was born and raised in South Florida. She never was a very athletic kid (tho she tried it ALL), she went snowboarding for the first time at age 14. After returning home, she wanted to be a pro snowboarder but her mom told Barrett to pick anything else because the nearest mountain was 12 hours away and they weren't moving. That's when Barrett discovered wakeboarding. 4 years later, Barrett turned pro and was consistently ranked one of the top 10 women in the world. In 2010, Barrett began to transition into another chapter in her life and moved to Los Angeles where she took up stunts and acting for a while. Barrett finally transitioned into producing TV shows in 2013 and recently she feels like she's finally finding success in her life after a long career in action sports. Barrett has produced TV shows for the likes of FOX, MTV, CNBC, HLN, Go90, Snapchat and more. Barrett’s background in action sports and her new career as a filmmaker finally pushed her to create the documentary film, Life After X, about the evolution of the action sports industry and its athletes after they've retired.

Jock was the first American to take part in the biggest race of the world the Tour de France. You can view his story in the documentary film Rising from Ashes.

Team Africa rising was founded in 2007. They have exponentially grown the sport of cycling in Rwanda, a country torn apart in the 1994 Genocide and still mentally recovering from such an impactful experience.

With assistance from the Rwandan government and the Rwandan Cycling Federation, Jock Boyer and Kim Coats have grown the team to the point where it now fields more than 35 cyclists — men and women — in all levels and disciplines. Team rider Adrien Niyonshuti qualified for the 2012 London Olympic Games in mountain biking, and, most recently, Joseph Areruya, who came up through the program, won a stage at the 2017 U23 Giro d'Italia, marking the first stage win by a Rwandan at a UCI race.
