In last week's episode I told you the story about my first trip to Italy that I went on without really knowing what I was getting myself into. I came back from that trip a better rider - stronger, faster, and with more endurance. Well, in this week's episode a year has gone by and three of my close friends are urging me to go back to Italy, but this time, not alone. Enjoy!

We've all heard the old adage, when an opportunity presents itself, take it. Well in this week's story, that's what I did. One minute I was at my new job in Minnesota and the next I was training and racing in the Dolomite mountains of Italy. It was a time I will never forget, and one that I love sharing and hope you enjoy. -Ernie

Sometimes we make friends in situations we don't always think we would. Sometimes we just find ourselves so present in the moment that we aren't even aware of what's happening around us. In this week's episode, I tell the story of how I made some great friends without really knowing it at the time. And like great friends do, they pushed me to do something I didn't think I could do. Enjoy. -Ernie

Ya know, before I started making goat milk soap and wearing jeans everyday, I wore a suit and tie and was working my way up the corporate ladder of Hertz. And over those years, I met a lot of celebrities, professional athletes, and the like that would rent from us or be in an advertisement. This week's story is about one of the most well known individuals on the planet in those days and how sometimes you just never can predict life.

In this week's story we're back in South America, but this time I have a very important question that needs asking. I also was a bit too gullable with some local ice cream that tried to leave me for dead. All part of the fun right?
