We've got a TLR favorite on this week's episode of Stories Behind the Songs - Adam Craig! Adam has so many impressive cuts like “Church Pew or Bar Stool” by Jason Aldean, “Close Your Eyes” by Parmalee, and George Strait's 2024 single from his upcoming album, “MIA Down In MIA”. We dive into those songs as well as the story behind his unreleased Cody Johnson cut written with Jordan Walker and Matt Rogers that will be on Cody's next album. Adam also talks about his past publishing and record deals, moving to Nashville to be an artist, playing the Opry stage, writing for a “viral moment”, and trying to impress the songwriting icon, Dean Dillon. We also get a verse/chorus of “Church Pew and Barstool” and “MIA Down In MIA”. Adam is a good friend of mine and a regular on our stage, and I'm so glad we got the opportunity to dig deeper into his story and career and, of course, his songs!

There are still thousands of small businesses that require commercial office space to operate. Despite the negative press of office buildings in large downtown markets, many small suburban office buildings are completely occupied. Adam Craig, Founder and CEO of CLE Real Estate Group, shops buildings that have languished on the market, sometimes for up to 18 months, and makes lowball offers to acquire them at a low enough basis to make money. These buildings are typically non-financeable, so there are often no competitive offers. Once the properties are improved, and stand out above the competiton, Adam finds tenants with local Facebook ads.

Hannah Otto is a World Cup mountain bike racer, FKT record holder, and Leadville 100 winner who has been racing since the age of 9 years old. Last month she set the fastest known time for riding the Whole Enchilada from bottom to top, and top to bottom in a time of 5:50:38. You can watch a short film about her FKT attempt here (https://youtu.be/oErEWLGdPlI) and follow Hannah on Instagram @hannah_finchamp In this episode we ask: How did you first get into mountain bike racing? How do FKT attempts compare to races like the Leadville 100 or even a World Cup XC race? Is one more stressful than the other? Tell us about your Whole Enchilada FKT attempt. Why that route? Was this your first time riding this exact route? Had you ridden the Whole Enchilada descent before? According to Strava all the fastest times on the Whole Enchilada were posted by men. How did it feel to best all of them by nearly an hour? Which was more challenging: the climb or the descent? Was the weather a factor when you made your attempt? Did you do any training specific to this trail, and this FKT attempt? I assume all of your gear held up well. Any surprises out there? What have you learned by working with bike coaches over the years? Do you use caffeine before or during races? Why or why not? What does your rest and recovery routine look like? Which races or FKTs are you targeting for 2023? This episode of the Singletracks podcast is sponsored by Explore Brevard. Professional mountain biker Adam Craig says it's one of the top three places in the universe he's ever ridden. Where is this magical mountain biking nirvana? It's none other than Brevard, North Carolina, home to Pisgah National Forest and DuPont Recreational Forest. The area boasts over 300 miles of peerless singletrack, not to mention hundreds of miles of gravel roads, creating a near endless array of routes, terrains, and challenges to explore. Four vibrant bike shops will get you sorted, whether you need gear, service, or a top notch rental. Top it off with an array of craft breweries, cafes and gathering spots that have earned Brevard the title as one of the best small towns in America in 2021. It all adds up to a premier mountain biking destination you'll want to experience for yourself.

What was your bike setup at the start, and how did it evolve during the ride? Why did you and the crew get arrested in Arizona? Which sections were your favorites to ride? Have you been on any bike adventures since the trip? Do you have any planned for the future?

Joe McEwan is a career aerospace engineer and carbon composites expert who founded Starling Cycles in 2014. The brand's bikes are developed, engineered and handmade for the demands of UK trails, and the bikes have been well received among both the media and athletes. In this episode we ask: What first piqued your interest in building steel bikes? Have you tried building bikes with other materials? Is it true that that steel absorbs road and trail vibration better than other materials, and if so, can the average rider feel a difference? Do fat tires and suspension have more of an affect on ride feel than frame material? How do you go about making a steel tube stiffer in one direction than the other? Are there any design considerations that are unique to steel full-suspension frames? Why are most steel frames single-pivot? Why do some bikes like the Murmur Trail need a brace between the top tube and seat tube? Some Starling products are made in the UK, while others are welded in Taiwan. How do you decide which bikes to build in house, and which ones to outsource? Are there advantages to a gearbox over an external drivetrain that go beyond broken derailleurs? What are your thoughts on the rising popularity of mixed-wheel bikes? What's next for Starling Cycles? Are there any steel ebikes in the future?

Scott Morris is a self-described “lifelong mountain biker, trail mapper and programmer.” He's the creator of Track Leaders, a live tracking website for bikepacking races, and TopoFusion mapping software. In this episode we ask: How did first make the connection between mountain biking and computer programming? Why did you and your brother decide to create TopoFusion? Have there been growing pains as bikepacking races like the Arizona Trail Race become more popular? Will some of the unofficial races need to become more official and organized as they get larger? Are you able to keep the list of ultra endurance records for races like the Tour Divide and Huracan 300 up to date? Do you think there's a value in keeping official records for races like this, and for FKTs? What are the challenges involved in maintaining an official list like this? What led you to create Track Leaders, and how does it work? Are SPOT devices still the best way to track outdoor races? Do you see other devices like smartphones becoming viable for this anytime soon? As a programmer, how do you account for GPS data accuracy when tracking races? Is it easy for someone to cheat? Why is elevation data so notoriously difficult to track accurately with a GPS? When did you fully commit to the digital nomad lifestyle? How'd you finally make the jump? Do you have any tips for going full nomad? When you go for a ride in a new place, do you rely on GPS entirely or do you also pack a paper map? What are you planning for your next adventure?

He'll also unlock the key to his success and share how he deals with his investment. Listen and enjoy the show! Quote: “I knew I had to find an outlet that enabled me to stay, I guess you would call it financially free, and I knew real estate was it even before I started investing in real estate in 2013.” Timestamped Shownotes: 0:37 - Pancham introduces Adam to the show 1:41 - Diversifying his finances through e-commerce and investing 4:59 - How real estate investing helps with his self-employment 7:36 - The investing niche that helped him maximize his cash flow 9:38 - How he unintentionally saw the opportunity in commercial buildings 12:43 - On vetting tenants and providing flexible terms for leasing 16:00 - Investing in his 2nd commercial building during the pandemic 23:43 - Taking the Leap Round 23:43 - On his first small investment in a carpet business 24:05 - Why he didn't feel any doubt with his first investment 24:26 - Factors that made some of his property investments fail 25:38 - Why you should educate yourself and diversify your assets 26:29 - How can you connect with Adam 3 Key Points: A lot of businesses and jobs may come and go, but real estate would be there forever. Thus, investing would help you with achieving financial freedom. Going for the less popular asset class can help with your investing journey as there would be a lot less competition in those fields.

Today I'm joined by Shimano product manager Jessie Gascon and one of their elite test team, Adam Craig. We sat down to find out more about what goes into producing a flat pedal shoe for the gravity market. We chat about how the way we ride modern bikes impacts what we need from a shoe. Hear about the design of the rubber compound and the sole itself and what they felt was key to a great shoe. Adam takes us behind the scene of Shimano's prototyping and testing process to find out what really happens before the shoes are ready to go on sale. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Jessie and Adam. You can check out the shoes over at mtb.shimano.com. Supporting Partners Shimano Shimano have recently launched their new gravity focussed flat pedal shoe, the GR9. It features their brand new gravity-optimised Ultread sole that combines the rubber compound and the sole design to create the perfect balance of grip and durability. I've been using the shoe for the past few weeks, so I can't really comment on durability yet although there is no evidence of any damage from the pedal pins after the first few rides. What I can comment on is the grip. For me, they've got the balance right, I feel totally connected to the bike and I'm not worried about my foot slipping on the pedals, but I don't feel so locked in that I can't make minor adjustments to my foot position on the pedal. The new GR9 is available now from your local Shimano dealer and you can check it out at mtb.shimano.com. WeAreOne Composites I've been using WeAreOne wheels for nearly 4 years now and I'm a massive fan. I'm currently running a Faction 29er up front and a Union 27.5 in the rear and I love them.

We end up dealing with a lot more headaches because tenants aren't happy with X, Y, or Z. So if we can, we encourage them to get their own people to do it, but we will sometimes assist with the cost of that because a lot of the mom and pop investors that we work with don't have the budget for first month's rent last month's rent, build-out, no income, so we try to ease the pain of that any way we can as long as we get our money somewhere down the road. Now another drawback of that would be if the tenant doesn't perform certainly wasted a lot of money, building up their space. But so far, we've been pretty lucky with that. Intro 00:35 Welcome to the How to Scale Commercial Real Estate Show. Whether you are an active or passive investor, we will teach you how to scale your real estate investing business into something big. Sam Wilson 00:43 Adam Craig is a real estate investor since 2013. He has more than 80 deals completed in residential and commercial. Adam, welcome to the show. Adam Craig 00:51 Hey, thank you for having me. Excited to be on. Sam Wilson 00:53 Hey, man. Pleasure's mine. Same three questions I ask every guest who comes to the show. In 90 seconds or less, can you tell me where did you start? Where are you now? And how did you get there? Adam Craig 01:00 Sure. I started just outside Cleveland, Ohio, I went to school for business finance, right after school finished up a degree that I thought I'd be using, but ended up starting my own business. From that business. I invested everything into real estate started with some single family homes, eventually evolved into the commercial side of things. 2018 was when I made my first commercial purchase. Since then been doing a mix of residential and commercial with the focus being primarily on commercial. So right now, that's where I'm at and looking to eventually leave the single family space in the rearview and concentrate solely on commercial. Sam Wilson 01:34 Right. What kind of asset class are you buying right now? Adam Craig 01:37 Mostly, office, mini strip plazas, things of that sort, I didn't think I'd be getting into that. I thought maybe apartment buildings was where I saw myself, but kind of fell into that in 2018. And it worked out. So well. We've kind of been going after that asset class ever since. Sam Wilson 01:50 Are there buying opportunities in office right now? Adam Craig 01:53 Yeah, in my market, there certainly are, and it's not strictly office, it's a combination, sometimes flex space. But yeah, when COVID happened, office space was definitely on sale. And in my market, there's still some really good deals. Sam Wilson 02:04 Yeah, what is flex space? Can you define that for us? Adam Craig 02:06 So we always say we're rehabbing office space. But I mean, we've had you know, guys who build furniture to banquet centers to, you know, all kinds of businesses go into our space. So they're not technically all office space, we have just about everything that goes into it. Sam Wilson 02:20 Okay, very, very interesting. So things went on sale, I guess, talk to us about how you underwrite something that is on sale? And then how do you get financing for it, because it's on sale for a reason. Adam Craig 02:31 Yeah. So just like we did on the single family space, everything in the commercial world that I buy is distressed. So it's either vacant or nearly vacant, meaning, you know, banks don't typically touch it until it's stabilized. So private money is how we finance that, I have a hard money lender that I used for a lot of years. And since about 2017, I started developing some private lending relationships. And that's really grown considerably. So I finance them all with private money, refinance them with the bank after they're stabilized. Sam Wilson 02:58 Right. So talk to us about that private money. Is there, what advice would you give to somebody, you know, looking to kind of repeat your process? What should they be doing in order to go out and find especially private money, you guys are going to need large sums of money. So how do you secure that? Adam Craig 03:13 So I would not say I'm an expert at raising private money. I've only been doing it for about four years. But I've certainly learned a lot considering it's, we're only about four years in and I've probably got about $2 million left out to me on the private world right now. The biggie is, once you get past that initial group of friends and family in your immediate network, I just had to sharpen up my presentation. At first, it was pretty easy. I just told people what I did. They know me, they trust me, they like me, you know, they give the money. I, after that, you really need to sharpen up just the whole presentation of the deal. You can't just say this deal is great. We're going to make a bunch of money, which I was naively thinking in the beginning. So now I have just a brokerage company would have a nice flashy presentation showing some returns showing pictures of the building a lot more insight. And I like to prep them before the deal. So I don't just come at them and say, “Hey, I need $85,000.” I say this is the deal coming down the pipeline. If you're interested, let me know. I'll get you some more information. And that has that's worked a lot more than just bringing them on when I need the money. Sam Wilson 04:10 Right. Yeah, that's really intriguing. Are these going to be typical syndication type deals when you say private money, or are they just strictly lenders in your projects? Adam Craig 04:19 Right now, we're just doing strictly lenders on the projects. We're doing mostly million and under deals right now. So as I grow and I start to need bigger amounts of capital, I can see that need to syndicate and partner and share equity. But as of now, if I'm able to raise it on a strictly loan basis, that's the route I've been taking. Sam Wilson 04:36 Yeah. When it comes to that, I would assume that you know, there's a certain investor profile or call it investor or lender profile, what's a typical return that you would offer on a project? Adam Craig 04:48 So we average about 10% returns and a lot of times we'll offer a point or something for the logistics of closing. I would say the investor profile for me tends to be an older investor looking to diversify, and someone who's not looking to put their money into something that's, you know, a low-risk return, we don't advertise the saying it's a low risk, but we always say, you know, we're not the rollercoaster of the stock market, it's a nice steady 10 to 12% return. And for younger guys, that doesn't really appeal, they're aggressive, they want to be in aggressive assets. So it's pretty rare where we get a young guy that gets excited about 10%. But you never know, we do have a few guys that, you know, around my age or younger, who are very happy with 10%. Sam Wilson 05:26 Yeah, you know, you're right. You never want to pigeonhole anyone or any demographic, you know, for that matter into saying, “Hey, this is what they always do.” But it does seem to be the older you get, the more predictable those cash flows become, the more important those predictable cash flows become, the less of you know, hitting a home run. Tell me about what your strategy is when you find an office building or a flex space for turning it around. What are the other owners done, or not done that you plan on doing? Adam Craig 05:53 I think a big asset for us, our big advantage for us has been self-marketing and self-managing, I thought I didn't want to get into the weeds of real estate. When I first started investing, property management was kind of how I started. And ever since then, I've evolved out of property management more into self-managing with an employee that I can oversee. So I have spaces down the street from some of my buildings that have been for lease for, you know, six months or a year, if not longer, will come in there will rehab the unit. And then we'll have at least up while their property is still on the market. There's combination of reasons why we're able to lease them quicker, obviously, rehab space is more desirable. But I'm just on top of the leasing a lot more than a broker who has dozens and dozens of properties typically is. Facebook has been a huge way that we've been actually leasing places. Unfortunately, they don't have a commercial section, but we have been posting some ads in the residential section and we typically have a picture of the office with office space in the actual pictures so people don't get confused. So far, Facebook hasn't kicked us off, thank God, because you know, we're technically you know, misrepresenting the category. But I would say like 80% of our commercial applicants and tenants have come from Facebook in comparison to Loop Net and drive by signs. Sam Wilson 07:02 Wow, that's intriguing. Do you think there is a price point where that makes sense to advertise a base like that on Facebook? Adam Craig 07:10 The advertising we're doing is free. So if you're saying the price point for the least yeah, I think it's a lot of the smaller businesses and mom and pop shops that are out there, mostly everything we have is maybe 23,000 square feet or less. And we tend to break those up into considerably smaller units, because the areas that we're buying in has a lot more small businesses than they do big corporations or LLCs, trying to move into the area. So we tailor it to the smaller business a little bit higher turnover. But in return, we can charge a little more per square foot. Sam Wilson 07:40 Yeah. And you said one of the things you guys are doing, what the other owners didn't do was you're self-managing. Is there anything else you find where you think I can add value here, or I can turn this property because you know, where's the kind of completion of those sentences maybe. Adam Craig 07:53 So we're adding value to the building, typically, because they've been distressed for so long. So it's a lot of properties near us, it's a shelf space, and they're telling their tenants, you know, you have to build out you have to do everything, our buildings are typically partially rehabbed or white box-ready, and then in addition to that will offer to do build outs for attendance and amortize the cost of that build out over their lease. So we try to be really flexible as the landlord to fill these things up. So we can get them refinanced in the banks' hands instead of our private lenders. So I don't think a lot of my competition is as aggressive doing that. They tend to hand over the space and say this, is it. Sam Wilson 08:26 Right? Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. What are some downsides to doing that, you know, amortization of the lease, or the build-out or being aggressive? Is there some downsides to that? Adam Craig 08:36 Well, that the offering to do the build-out, obviously takes more management, we end up dealing with a lot more headaches, because tenants aren't happy with X, Y, or Z. So if we can we encourage them to get their own people to do it. But we will sometimes assist with the cost of that because a lot of the mom and pop investors that we work with don't have the budget for first month's rent, last month's rent, build out no income. So we try to ease the pain of that any way we can, as long as we get our money somewhere down the road. And another drawback of that would be if the tenant doesn't perform, certainly wasted a lot of money, building out their space. But so far, we've been pretty lucky with that. Sam Wilson 09:09 Yeah, that's interesting. How do you vet the tenant to make sure they are going to perform or at least vet them as well as you can. Adam Craig 09:15 Similar to our residential single family space, the application we want to see get we're not typically concerned with credit score, but cash on hand, income coming in, the ability to pay, obviously, are the big determining factors and a lot of our, they're not micro-units, but a lot of our units that are maybe 1,500 or 2,000 square feet or less, we're not betting the tenant is the same. We you know, we just signed a lease on a commercial restaurant, and that was $4,000 a month. So we've rented that tenant a lot differently than we did the $900 a month tenant. So the smaller space is, we're not too concerned about it. Typically a partner a couple of partners can afford $1,500 a month without a problem. Sam Wilson 09:52 Right. Yeah, absolutely. The research and time spent vetting that tenant isn't worth it because it's 900 bucks on month, and there's not the same eviction laws commercially, that there are residential, it's just much easier to get out and stop paying and to replace that tenant to. So obviously, it's like you're saying, you know, 900 bucks a month, that's an easy tenant to find somebody else to fill that gap. Adam Craig 10:15 Yeah, yeah, the bigger spaces tend to take longer, obviously better rewards for waiting it out for a bigger tenants. But with our buildings financed on higher interest loans, we're much more, I would say, aggressive and filling them. And with that comes maybe converting some of the bigger spaces to small spaces if the tenants want that. Sam Wilson 10:30 Right. Yeah, absolutely. Talk to me, once you get these stabilized and refinance, what sort of debt terms are available in the office and flex space right now? Adam Craig 10:41 We're pretty much seeing right now the rates are anywhere from four to four and a half percent, 20-year amortization with five-year adjustable, so pretty standard across the board with what we're doing. I have been trying to break into getting bank financing right off the rip, which has been an uphill battle. But I've got some relationships with some banks now who said, you know, I recently had a deal that I wasn't able to get an offer on quick enough, and it's under contract. But this was a 100% vacant building. And I talked to my lender enough about the building to possibly get some 70% financing right off the rip, which I didn't think could be done. But being on shows like this and talking to other investors. I know people are doing it. If you can get ground-up construction, you should be able to get bank financing on vacant buildings. Sam Wilson 11:22 Right. Yeah, you should. And especially once you've developed a track record that says, Hey, I know how to turn these around. I mean, that's the, they're betting on the jockey as much as they are the horse. So you know, getting a few of those reps under your belt is certainly helpful as well. Adam, I've enjoyed this. It's been lots of fun. Thanks for taking the time today to come on and chat. Let's jump into the final few questions. What's one tool or resource, think digital, think software, maybe that you find you can't live without? Adam Craig 11:46 I would say our property management software, there's a million of them out there. The one we use is called tenant cloud. But when I think back to the 90s, or days where I wasn't managing properties, or even alive, I don't know how they did it, picking up checks and picking up applications. The ease of the software we have these days just makes managing a lot of doors for one or two people pretty simple. Sam Wilson 12:04 Right. Yeah, that's exactly what it does. It cuts down on manpower. That just simplifies the process as a whole. I love that. What is one mistake you can help us avoid? And how would you avoid it? Adam Craig 12:14 I guess I would throw this back to single family by single family days. For a lot of years, I was over-improving a lot of our single families, you know, really fancy finishes, over-detailing areas, thinking a little bit too much about the rehab at the end of the day. Just put in something clean, something nice, get it ready to go. We've had customers we flipped houses too and I later found out they ripped out our beautiful tile design only to put it in their own. So that was kind of a wake-up call. Don't get too intricate. Make it basic, make it clean, make it neat. Move on. Sam Wilson 12:41 Right. Love that question number three, when it comes to investing in the world, what's one thing you're doing right now to make the world a better place? Adam Craig 12:47 So I wish I could say it was something more impactful than offering my real estate information. But right now I'm offering a lot of help to new and experienced investors through social media outlets and other avenues and I'm not charging anything for the service. So I'll grab coffee. I'll have a phone call. I'll get together with any investor looking to talk real estate and I'll give my two cents on whatever issue they have or just a job about real estate. It tends to pay back tenfold in relationships and networking and issues down the road. Sam Wilson 13:11 That's awesome, man. I love it. Adam, if our listeners want to get in touch with you, what's the best way to do that? Adam Craig 13:15 You can visit my website, CLEinvest.com. I am also on Instagram as Adam The Investor.

Despite general assertions that real estate investing is an easy way to wealth, it could, in fact, be a challenging business endeavor for syndicators, one that requires special knowledge, planning, and continuous sharpening of skills. Adam Craig, a commercial real estate syndicator, faced a similar challenge. After his few initial deals, which came swiftly and almost effortlessly, Adam, co-founder of CLE Real Estate Group, found himself struggling to find new investors beyond his family and friends.

The group's stated mission is to change the world through bikes by focusing on empowering cities, creating connections, and supporting the bike industry. In this episode we ask: What are the current regulations at the federal, state, and local level regarding eMTB trail access? What types of conflicts exist where electric mountain bikes and regular mountain bikes share the trail? Does basic trail etiquette cover eMTBs, or do we need to update and/or add new rules of the trail? Where and how are e-bikes gaining additional trail access? What do land managers generally think about e-bikes on trails? What are their concerns? How big of a role do studies and unbiased reports play into eMTB advocacy? Do opinions play into the discussion as well? Is there a risk that advocating for e-bike access could hurt traditional mountain bike trail access? What do you think about registration programs for e-bikes that are needs-based? Aside from PFB, who else is advocating for eMTBs? Do we need separate eMTB advocacy groups, or is this something that can fit into existing groups like IMBA and local clubs? Why should other mountain bikers care about e-bike access?

Rab Wardell is a mountain bike athlete and coach living in Glasgow, Scotland. He recently launched a new video series with Wahoo Fitness called Old Enough to Know Better. In this episode, we ask Rab: How did a big early race loss affect your outlook on your career as an athlete? What was it like to essentially retire in your early 20s? What did you decide to do instead? What are some of the biggest mistakes that stand out as being the ones where you learned the most? As an athlete, are there ways to learn beyond just personal experience? What risks are involved in becoming a professional athlete? What types of normal, everyday things have you decided to cut out of your life to focus on racing? How much of it feels like a sacrifice? Were there any times when friends or family members suggested you grow up and get a “real job”? What competitive advantages do you have at your age? Why is play important? Are there ways you've found to incorporate play into your training? What do you hope to be doing on the bike at age 50, or even 70? At 36, are there things you still have left to learn and experience?

This week, my special guest is Adam Craig, LFCE (Linux Foundation Certified Systems Engineer). Adam manages a room of Linux servers for an unnamed major university and was my master/tutor/guru (and still is, to some degree) when I made the switch to Linux several years ago. We discuss the Linux Operating System — what it is, how to get it, why it is better than either Windows or Mac for privacy and security, and why you should consider switching to Linux from your current Operating System. I do not personally know anyone more knowledgeable about Linux than Adam. It was a great joy to have him on the show to discuss an Operating System that respects privacy and liberty.

Originally from South Jersey, Adam + Craig are brothers who have been making animated cartoons together since 2012. They started by teaching themselves to animate and doing everything from concept to writing, voice-acting, music composition, directing, and animating. And then came Game of Zones, which as the brothers say was intended as a one-off video that took on a life of its own, evolving into a full series running for seven seasons with over 300 million views, three Sports Emmy nominations, and a Grand Clio. Adam + Craig were in-house at Bleacher Report from 2014 to 2020, creating and developing original animated series, one of which was Game of Zones. In their time at B/R, they helped grow the animation department from just the two of them into a full animation production team. We discussed their background, dove into Game of Zones in a behind-the-scenes way that resulted in Adam + Craig providing priceless information to anyone in design, animation, and especially sports content/social media. We also discuss what's next for the brothers.

This is just some of my key highlights that I think will help you become a better athlete in training and competition. Again please comment below and let me know who your favourite was and why

Sage is one of the greatest big mountain skiers of all time. He's also a great friend of mine and we've been lucky to ski and bike together at home and abroad. In this episode we talk about the 'season that never happened' where all ski resorts were forced to close amidst pandemic. We also talk about mountain biking, our trip to Oaxaca, our mutual friend Adam Craig, our shared multi-sport lifestyles, our thoughts on the coronavirus and so much more. So stoked to have Sage back on the show. Please support this podcast by donating at www.paypal.me/ariintheair Sage's Bio from TNF "When someone identifies their favorite skier in one name, it’s most likely “Sage”. The moment Sage Cattabriga-Alosa’s signature long locks fly through the air and across the screen,—as they have each fall for almost 10 years—ski film audiences turn it up a decibel. Fans appreciate his humble free-spirit, happy-go-lucky personality and smooth style no matter how complex the descent, but it’s Sage’s creativity—the unique way he reads the mountain—that’s earned him a place among skiing’s legends. Having starred in more than 25 ski films, won four coveted Powder Awards and skied more lines in Alaska than probably any pro skier, Sage can look back on one of the most successful ski careers in the business, but that would imply he’s slowing down. And even with young twin daughters, he’s as motivated to progress his skiing—and mountain biking—as ever."

It means a lot to me, I’m so grateful. So much good stuff coming up. Stay tuned! "I grew up racing mountain bikes with Team Decker (Dad and brother Chris) from the age of nine. Ran XC and track in high school, earning a scholarship at University of Portland, where I ran for four years (specializing in XC and Steeplechase) and earned a BS in Criminal Justice. Hung up the shoes in 1997 and began racing bikes in earnest that summer for the Mrazek/Deschutes Brewery team out of Bend. Shattered my back in 2000, healed for a year, made the Worlds team in 2002, and signed with Giant that fall. 2011 is my 9th year with Giant and my 10th year as a pro. I race everything from Super D to road stage races. I also enjoy the occasional rally car race. I still live in Bend Oregon, near my co-driver, Adam Craig, and more importantly, even closer to several burrito shops and brewpubs." -Carl's bio from REP Lab Sports page

Peanut butter and jelly, Tom and Jerry, Batman and Robin--we'd argue Adam Craig and Carl Decker are up there with the most legendary duos on earth. They certainly are the most interesting. Illustrious Olympic mountain bike careers, XGames level rally car partners as AC/CD, a Singlespeed World Championship dynasty, industry-altering bike set-up innovations, and some of the best storytellers we've ever encountered. Payson sat down with two of his childhood racing heroes at Adam's house in Bend, OR the day after the Singlespeed World Championships, and tried to figure out how many of the myths were true. This was the very first podcast Payson recorded.
We're Back! Happy Prince Day/Anniversary of the Podcast!

They talk as much as they feel they can about seeing the movie, a bathroom incident, great pro athlete SNL hosts, surprisingly good guitarists, and the best fake bands in movies and their music.
