Nick Ybarra is the founder of the Maah Daah Hey 100 and the Badlands Races Series. He is also the Director of the Save the MDH non-profit organization that annually keeps the entire Maah Daah Hey trail system alive and functional for it's users. But beyond that, Nick is continually looking for ways to improve, enhance and protect the trail, whether that's with local trail advocacy or working with Congress in Washington D.C.

Today Nick comes on the podcast to chat with JP about the work they are doing as well as some wild tales from the trails and of course Nick and JP can never get together without diving into the beloved Maah Daah Hey 100.

This week on the Stable Cyclist, we journey through the world of BMX and mountain biking as we sit down with none other than the legendary Tinker Juarez. We dive deep into Tinker's illustrious career, from his humble beginnings to becoming a trailblazer in the mountain biking world. We chat about his 24 hour world championships battle with Kelly Magelky and we park for a while at the Maah Daah Hey 100.

Adam Saban is most famously known as the host of the Bonk Bros Podcast and the Matchbox Podcast, but he's also a coach, elite level mtb rider, an engineer, a husband, a dad and so much more. In the first real interview Adam has done outside the Bonk Bros, we get to know him and realize, he's not just a Bonk Bro.  We dive into how Adam became a cyclist, why Leadville is so special to him, how he became the Bonk Bros host, and we dive into how mental health fits within his story.
