We sit down with Brent and Jonathan to trace how two fresh racers launched The Salty Dogs, built a real team structure, raced across the country, and started giving back to get more kids on bikes. Mindset, tactics, and community sit at the center, with plenty of laughs in between.

• founding story of the salty dogs
• mindset shifts from survival to strategy
• racing upgrades, team roles and finishes
• tactics for crit positioning and energy budget
• kit design, branding and a club line
• community work with kids, helmets and bikes
• national travel, ambassadorship and culture
• gear favorites, dream routes and classics
• selection philosophy for future teammates
