This week's guest is Rambo, time trial racer and every day bike commuter who stops for shiny objects in the road. Just how did Rambo make $78 in street change? Well he rode his bike over 13,000 miles last year! 13,000!!! He stopped to pick up a penny here, a quarter there, and all that change added up. When not commuting, this guy is training for a life changing race....a chance to take back his track record at the Alpenrose Velodrome. Take a listen to hear his story. Each week we will get to know new people and explore great destinations to ride your bike. Learn tips and listen as guests talk about their adventures on the bicycle.
