How do you keep in mind your real goals for the season when in January you're doing the hardest race you have ever done? What mindset can you carry to help you make the most of events that are well before your primary goals?

Griffin Easter is our guest this week!

Griffin has had an extensive/successful pro road career, and has now transferred that success to gravel. What has that transition been like? What did pro road teach him that has allowed him such quick success at gravel?

We answer all of these questions plus we were joined by Griffen's brother Cullen, to learn all about Opicure foundation, and how the Easter brothers are using bikes to fight Opioid addiction.
