Matt gets the chance to sit down with elevenpine founder and creator Jeff Curran and Tom Barney, his newly announced CEO. In this episode Jeff talks history, how the product came to be, and of course their biggest blunder to date: going to Sea Otter with a changing room. Tom chimes in to give his background and to explain how being the CEO of Oprey for 15 years has given him the prep he needs to grow elevenpine as their product evolves. With a little nudging from Matt, Tom gives a rough idea of what products to expect from them in the future.

They discuss the evolution of the race as it enters it 9th year of racing, some of the mistakes and setbacks, and how the race has grown over time.

This year they mix things up by comping entry for some really amazing athletes to elevate the race to another level of competition and camaraderie, by letting the everyday Jack and Jill rub elbows with the most elite athletes of the sport of mountain biking.

The Just Riding Along Show Page

The gang tackles an odd show this week: no questions, no donations, just an hour of shooting the breeze about bikes, rims, and the usual stuff. Kenny and Matt don't have much in the way of stories but Andrea has a zinger of a tale (tail) from racing Breck 68 this past weekend. Andrea tries prodding Matt into a rant about suspension on drop bar bikes by mentioning the new Pinarello, but Matt makes lemonade out of lemons and tries to project where all of this is going in the next few years.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

The crew launches in with the normal banter and updates. Andrea is finally riding her Pivot Switchblade, Kenny blows up the Reba fork doing some big-ness on the lift runs, and Matt has light news. They discuss how Chris Plesko is leading the Colorado Trail Race on a rigid single speed in terrible weather and how hard it must be. Then weather strikes and a storm knocks Kenny out of the mix so Andrea and Matt knock out the questions.

Ben sits down with Jeff for the second time on MBR and you don't want to miss it. They run through how Jeff got started riding, how he tasted his breakfast at the end of his first Leadville 100 and how that plays into how Tailwind was started. The story goes through a lot of growth, from using a Kitchenaid stand mixer to make one batch at a time to buying a tumbling mixer, but not having the money for a motor, how he made his own sifter using an orbital sander, and how as the business has grown to a 12 person team, they still keep a personal touch on every order.
