Send us a textSunshine, fairways, and a hall full of creators—this Florida trip gave us exactly what we needed: time together and a clearer sense of why we make this show the way we do. We walked into Podfest surrounded by pitch decks and monetization playbooks and walked out more committed to community, consistency, and the simple joy of talking to people we like about places we love.We compare notes on the shifting podcast landscape, from platform‑heavy expo floors to practical YouTube strategies that won't burn out a two‑person team. Buzzsprout friends shared smart, human advice that fits a steady biweekly cadence. Over dinner, our longtime friend Armando dropped Disney gems that reminded us travel stories are the heartbeat of Road Adventures. Listener Spotlights celebrate Frankfurt, Germany—hot‑dog history, efficient transit, and the world's biggest book fair—and Marshall, Illinois, where a community band and a 19th‑century stone arch keep local pride alive.Life updates are part of the path. With a job search underway, we've paused big cycling trips like BRAG and the Katy Trail while still backing our teams and planning bite‑size updates from the road. A surprise golf glow‑up—better contact, calmer decisions—became a quiet metaphor for the show: progress without pressure. We also talk market headwinds, why bike sales may be cooling, and how AI demand is nudging tech prices up. Between mobile recording quirks, a cameo from Confetti, and the long‑awaited closure of the “bucket hat” saga, we keep it real, useful, and light.If you're here for cycling culture, travel memories, Disney lore, or just a thoughtful take on podcasting without the hustle, you'll feel at home.

Today we are talking to an ER doc who fulfilled her dream of doing an epic bike ride across Europe. She rode 2,500 miles from Italy to Norway with over 500 people from all over the world. She knows that health is never guaranteed and wanted to accomplish this goal while she is still physically strong enough. She has taken care of her financial life and has reached financial independence so she had the freedom to make some changes to achieve her goal. She was willing to quit her job if necessary but ended up going to part time and with the help of great colleagues she was able to take 7 weeks off. She shows us what the point of financial freedom really is - getting to do what you value with your life! As a white coat, you have valuable knowledge. Various companies want that knowledge. And they're willing to pay you for it! That's why we've put together a list of recommendations for companies that pay you to take surveys.

This week on Inside EMS, Chris Cebollero kicks off 2026 with a heartfelt conversation featuring Eric Morrison, vice president of the National EMS Memorial Bike Ride and EMS director for Iredell County, North Carolina. The ride, founded 26 years ago, exists to honor the memory of EMS providers who died in the line of duty, from illness or mental health struggles. Each rider wears a dog tag bearing the name of a fallen provider, often connecting with their families along the journey. Eric shares his personal journey from lifeguard to leader and how his rekindled love for cycling — along with the loss of friend and EMS wellness advocate Brian Fass — led him to the ride. He breaks down what it takes to join (hint: it's more doable than you think), the logistics of the ride, and how EMS agencies and individuals can support the cause, even off the bike. Quotable takeaways from Eric Morrison “All of us are focused on the idea that our providers matter. They matter to their families, they matter to their communities, and they should matter to all of us.” “People that didn't even know that person are recognizing their service. They're recognizing their commitment to the community, and they're honoring them and remembering them.” “Once you come out and see what the ride is really about, you understand the mission and you see the impact it has on these families that we're able to meet with.” Enjoying Inside EMS?

Send us a textWhat if calling a week-long ride's overnight towns could win you a jersey no one else will ever own? We turned our BRAG 2026 route fever into a community contest and crowned a winner who came astonishingly close to a perfect map. Along the way, we unpacked why state rides like Bragg are such a powerful gateway into bike touring: approachable daily mileage, supportive staff, flexible sleeping options, and small towns that roll out the welcome mat.We walk through how riders reverse-engineer a route—looking at mileage norms, terrain, venue capacity, and that all-important Tuesday layover. The winning entry stood out not just for accuracy, but for understanding how a great route balances challenge and charm. That earned him a one-of-a-kind yellow Cycling Men of Leisure jersey co-branded with the BRAG Happy Trails logo, built to stand out across camp and spark conversations about his sharp call.We also share practical travel tactics that make week-long rides smoother. Book fast the night the route drops. Use simple tools to split trip costs cleanly so friendships stay fun and finances stay fair. Pack for comfort and recovery as much as performance. And most of all, find your people. Riding with a team transforms long days into shared memories—familiar wheels, small rituals, and the kind of support that makes headwinds bearable and finish lines sweeter.There's banter, a listener spotlight with city clues, a quick job-search update, and a preview of our Florida swing with golf, Podfest, and a friendly college championship wager. Hit play for the winner reveal, stick around for the travel hacks and team wisdom, and leave ready to map your own adventure.

Send us a textNew Year energy, winter grit, and a community that refuses to thin out—this one hits all three. We open with holiday contrasts that say everything about the ride right now: one of us hiking on ice with crampons and a Starbucks in hand, the other stepping out in shorts on a 70-degree Christmas. That contrast becomes a theme as we talk candidly about a slow job search, the quiet power of listener support, and why a team-first approach makes Big BRAG 2026 more rewarding for new riders and veterans alike.We zoom out to the bigger picture too. A shrunken Bicycling Magazine issue in the mailbox sparks a look at how print is adapting—smaller formats, leaner shipping, tighter layouts—and how that mirrors the shift from paper to pixels across cycling media. The conversation veers from aero bikes and marginal gains to what actually moves most riders: comfort, consistency, and a reason to roll. We share stories from old-school route planning in real estate photography, where efficiency beat mileage, and connect that mindset to how we plan tours, choose gear, and build habits that last.There's plenty of community fuel. We recap warm welcomes from international listeners, share gratitude for supporters who keep the show humming, and invite everyone to join our Cycling Men and Women of Leisure teams for Big BRAG 2026. We also announce our Podfest 2026 plans, thanks to Buzzsprout's support, and talk honestly about what conventions offer—useful ideas, people who push your craft, and a reminder that courses don't replace clarity. The Listener Spotlight returns with crisp clues—ten flags, great transit, book lovers, and an American cookout classic—so bring your best guess and jump in.Ride along for a thoughtful start to Season Five: real life, real laughs, and a clear focus on what matters—good roads, good people, and stories worth sharing.

Send us a textReady for a ride that blends rail-trails, river views, and real small-town hospitality? We're unveiling BRAG's “Happy Trails” route and bringing you along for a southbound journey that starts at LaFette's Honeybee Festival, rolls past a winery rest stop, settles into a two-night layover in Carrollton, and detours into a behind-the-scenes tour at Trilith Studios. From the Silver Comet to the LaGrange Thread and the Man O' War Trail, we stitch together protected miles and lively downtowns for a week that feels equal parts adventure and reunion.We map the route day by day so you can picture the ride: LaFette to Somerville, on to Cave Spring for cold spring water and easy camping; a midweek hub in Carrollton with the GreenBelt ready for a relaxed spin; a surprise cultural stop at Trilith with film-stage tours; then a push through Senoia to LaGrange for a big Friday night downtown. The finale brings us through Pine Mountain and drops into Columbus via the Riverwalk, where whitewater, zip lines, and riverfront patios set the scene for a celebratory finish.Worried about logistics? We cut the planning to three choices: how long you're riding, where you'll sleep, and how you'll get there. Veterans share why they park at the finish and shuttle to the start, plus tips for flyers using ATL or Chattanooga. We talk packing bikes into U-Hauls the smart way, booking shuttles, and choosing between hotels, indoor camping, or your trusty tent. Along the way you'll hear bourbon price trends, stories of ocean-aged bottles and lake-aged wine, and why trail networks change not just your route but your headspace.Subscribe, share with a ride buddy, and tell us: are you parking at the start or the finish this year?

Guest Steven Cuthbertson takes us on a ride from Romania to the UK. He shares the story of a 1,700 mile solo bike ride across Europe, ridden in support of a dog rescue charity that helped re-home his Romanian Shepherd dog, Stella.Steve's journey begins in Romania, at the very kennels where Stella once lived, before heading west through Hungary, Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, and finally back to the UK. Along the way, he follows parts of the EuroVelo network, adapts his route when plans change, and discovers just how important flexibility can be on a long ride.You can read about the full adventure in Steven's book - Going to the Dogs Check out the Cycplus tiny e-Pumps and use the code STR for a 5% discountSupport the showBuy me a coffee!

Send us a textA Bigfoot sweater, a heavy backpack full of mics, and a plane to Orlando—our year closes with the perfect mix of ride stories, travel plans, and one serious warning every cyclist needs to hear. We're gearing up for Podfest, turning a living room into a studio, and cashing in on a DVC Moonlight Magic night that lets us skip the crowds and snag a few hours of park time. Along the way, we talk about how a smarter packing checklist, a better mic deal, and some SNL-worthy podcast jokes became part of our annual rhythm.The community takes center stage with a sharp Listener Spotlight reveal: Mesa, Arizona, where ancient canals still inform modern life and towering saguaros are protected for good reason. That maps neatly into our revamped BRAG route-guessing contest—a fairer point system that rewards the correct town on the correct night, and a big bonus for the layover. It's competitive, nerdy in the best way, and proof our listeners know roads we haven't yet ridden. Yes, a custom jersey is on the line, but the real prize is the thrill of being right.Then comes the must-hear segment: counterfeit bike parts. A recent $1.6M seizure of fake frames, bars, wheels, and components—some stamped with household cycling brands—reminds us that a bargain can be dangerous. We unpack the difference between knockoffs and counterfeits, why serial numbers can be forged, and how to protect yourself: buy critical components from reputable dealers or your local bike shop, verify serials, and second-guess prices that look magical. It's not about brand loyalty; it's about staying upright.We wrap with our top moments of the year—post-ride honesty, “one more mile” lies, bourbon wisdom—and a simple truth: we may not be getting faster, but the stories keep getting better. If you're here for community, safe gear, and a reason to ride tomorrow, you're in the right place.If this resonated, follow and subscribe, share it with a friend who loves bikes, and drop a review to help other riders find the show.

Send us a textThe ride is more than the route, and this week we prove it—from a hilariously stubborn bathroom repaint to launching our biggest community challenge yet. We kick things off with the small stuff that somehow becomes big stuff, then shift gears into a listener spotlight reveal that lands in Tucker, Georgia, complete with military roots, postwar industry, and a surprising Kansas connection. It's a reminder that every town on a cycling tour has layers, and those layers make the journey memorable.From there, we talk honestly about job hunting in a world of AI recruiters and near-human support bots. It's weird, useful, and worth interrogating. We counter the screen time with winter hiking, clever daily movement, and a few simple habits that keep the body ready for spring rides. Then we swerve into something unforgettable: a Forged in Fire episode where blacksmiths harvest steel from bicycles, craft blades, and test them against bike parts. It's brutal, beautiful, and oddly inspiring for anyone who geeks out about materials, design, and durability.The centerpiece is our BRAG 2026 route-guessing contest. Here's the deal: guess each night town for the weeklong ride, score 10 points for the right town on the right night, 5 if the town is right but the night is wrong, and snag a bonus by following us on your favorite platform. The Tuesday-Wednesday layover counts double if you nail it, and the top scorer wins a one-of-a-kind jersey co-designed with BRAG branding and our show. Tie-breakers go to a live draw on the pod.

We're welcoming Domestic Ride Director Ron Ward to the family, spotlighting how he went from rider to crew to the person orchestrating the weeklong road adventure so many of us call summer camp on wheels. Franklin Johnson shares why international tours are accelerating, what growth means for the classic Georgia road experience, and how the team keeps rider joy at the center while scaling up.You'll hear the stories that make BRAG feel like home: chasing siblings across the state on mismatched bikes, spotting decade-old route arrows on backroads, and the unsung heroes who keep the ship steady—especially Stephanie, the glue behind the scenes. We talk real-world logistics, from rest stop strategy to layover day riding, and poke fun at hills that humble even the strongest legs. It's the blend of humor, community, and care that turns a line on a map into a lifetime memory.And because speculation is half the fun, we're launching a listener-powered challenge: guess the 2026 Big BRAG route.

Send us a textA holiday gift list shouldn't be hype; it should help. We pulled together a clear, field‑tested guide to the cycling gear that actually gets used, lasts through real weather, and makes every ride safer and more fun. From high‑lumen rechargeable lights that punch through daylight to the rear‑view bike radar that changed how we ride, we break down the smartest upgrades across budgets—under $25, $50, $100, and splurge‑worthy picks when you want to go big.We also talk storage and travel, because clutter and logistics can sink a good ride. You'll hear about the aero saddle pack that keeps tools dry and mounts a radar cleanly, top‑tube bags for snacks on the move, vertical rolling stands that free garage space, and a simple charging station that tames cords when you're juggling lights, computers, and radar. Flying with your bike? We compare hard cases designed to roll smoothly through airports and shield carbon frames from baggage‑handler mayhem. For comfort and delight, we champion the stealth move of fresh premium bar tape, stainless steel bottles shaped for cages, multitools that replace rusted relics, and even fun socks and a crisp bell that cuts through trail noise.Beyond the gear, we share a listener spotlight with a twist—Waltham, Massachusetts, the Watch City that helped standardize manufacturing and keep the rails on time—plus a friend's ambitious 2026 cross‑country route spanning 14 states, Great Lakes coastlines, Glacier National Park, and more. It's a reminder of why the right kit matters: safety, freedom, and the simple joy of a smooth ride at bike speed.If you enjoy thoughtful cycling talk and practical recommendations, tap follow, share this with a rider who needs gift ideas, and leave a quick review to help more folks find the show.

Send us a textWhat if your early-season ride felt more like a festival than a sufferfest? We sit down with Cycle Zydeco's ride director, Scott, to unpack a Louisiana cycling experience built around live Zydeco music, crawfish boils, dance lessons, and easy, flat miles that leave you grinning instead of gasping. With Breaux Bridge as the new base camp and Lafayette just a quick shuttle away, the logistics finally match the vibe: simple arrivals, secure overnight bike staging, showers on-site, and routes that roll from 40 miles to metric options with almost no climbing.We dig into the details riders care about. Hotels, RV camping, and on-site tent villages? Covered. Bike rentals, shipping, assembly, and last‑minute fixes from a full shop? Also covered. Zydeco Bucks spend like cash at local restaurants and stores, turning post‑ride meals into a culinary tour that feeds the community, too. Curious about VIP perks? Think swamp tours, Tabasco's island, museum stops, a craft cocktail festival, and priority charging stations. Prefer to keep it lean? The basic package keeps the heart of the experience intact—routes, snacks, music, and a generous stash of Bucks—without the extras.We also preview Jazzing on the Trace, a two‑day warm‑up on the Tammany Trace near Lake Pontchartrain. Expect 30 mellow miles, seafood boils by the water, and a shot of New Orleans energy just over the bridge. And yes, we talk weather, safety, and support: flat terrain with fast‑moving showers, shuttles that flex when the party runs late, and mechanics who can source everything from spokes to thru‑axles. If your spring calendar needs a ride that doubles as a cultural deep dive—Cajun and Creole food, Rockin' Dopsie and friends, and a dance floor that opens at three—this is your sign.If you enjoyed this conversation, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more riders can find their way to Louisiana's most joyful cycling week.

Send us a textFog hangs low, headlights cut thin ribbons through the dark, and somewhere ahead a line of red taillights refuses to be caught. We lean into the season with a Halloween ride that blends ghost stories, travel mishaps, aviation quirks, and a surprising amount of laughter from two cyclists who prize the journey as much as the destination.We kick off with Moonlight Mayhem bourbon, a yard-turned-graveyard, and a Florida trip that delivered 12-mile theme-park days and a front-row view of a Spirit Airlines plane getting impounded. From there, we talk towers, old-school air traffic tools that still run high-stakes skies, and the quiet competence that keeps travelers safe. Our Rants of Dissatisfaction pull no punches: language-targeted ads in the wrong place, a contractor who waited eleven empty days to start, and TV's most unrealistic prop—the weightless coffee cup.Then the hauntings roll in. Meet Larry, the red-Huffy rider of Randolph, Maine, who vanished without a trace and, some say, still cruises the old rail trail as orbs drift between the pines. A Devon mansion yields a Victorian figure watching a child cycling below, while a cliffside speakeasy's famed Blue Lady is exposed as an engineered hoax complete with moving chandeliers. Charleston's former bicycle shop, now a student health center, brings chills with neatly stacked books found on the floor at dawn. And the centerpiece: the WWI ghost cyclist reported by both trenches, silently crossing No Man's Land—an image every rider understands in their bones.We thank our VIP supporters, drop fresh listener spotlight clues, and tease the much-loved Cyclist Christmas List packed with road-tested gear, safety picks, and a few wildcards. Stick around for our original campfire tale, The Phantom Peloton, a modern myth about GPS loops, misty roads, and the whispered command every pack depends on: hold your line.Love the ride?

Send us a textBourbon on the brain, bikes in the rack, and a weekend that kept surprising us. We rolled into Lexington aiming for miles and meaningful pours and came away with a signed nine-millionth barrel at Buffalo Trace, a “unicorn” experimental bottle, and a reminder from Freddie Johnson that whiskey is really about the people you share it with. Between double allocation drops and an upstairs tasting lineup featuring Eagle Rare, Blanton's, and Weller 12, we dug into where the bourbon market might be headed—and why more shelves seem to be stocked again.The rides were the quiet kind we love: bluegrass roads, rolling hills, and a pace that felt better than expected after a long recovery. Back at camp, the Bourbon Country Burn offered light dinner and great fireside company, where small experiments—like a coffee liqueur topped with cold cream—turned into conversations about craft and curiosity. A tour at Town Branch raised thoughtful questions about modern production and logistics without spoiling the joy of a well-made pour. And thanks to Phil Talks Whiskey, we explored export-only bottles, from Japanese Blanton's to a Four Roses variant you won't find stateside, widening our palate and perspective.Along the way we met listeners who became friends, traded stories about riding, parenting, and the right moment to open a special bottle, and even squeezed in a bonus Sunday ride before the long drive home (complete with a highway standstill and some strategic humor). We wrapped with a label-worthy Jay Mattingly pick—oak-stave finished and full of character—because sometimes a bottle is a bookmark for a weekend you don't want to forget.If you're into cycling routes through Kentucky, bourbon culture, Buffalo Trace lore, and campfire community, this one's for you. Hit follow, share it with a friend who loves bikes or bottles, and drop us a note with your favorite ride-and-rye pairing.

Send us a textA bookstore with no checkout, a doorbell with a secret, and a barstool that comes with a story—our Kentucky journey starts where bike culture and bourbon tradition intersect. We kick off in Louisville on Whiskey Row, tracing two different arcs of American whiskey: Bardstown's modern blending and hospitality machine and Michter's deep Pennsylvania roots revived in Kentucky. Along the way, we compare tasting philosophies, talk candidly about when flights feel like value versus a money grab, and share what makes a tour memorable for curious riders who buy bottles with their heads and their hearts.Then we step into Kentucky Peerless for a true grained-to-bottle experience. DSP-KY-50 isn't just a number; it's a thread back to a family legacy that Corky Taylor helped bring forward. The team walks us through sweet mash, barrel proof, and why small variations can add character rather than chaos. We taste, we ask too many questions, and we leave with a sharper sense of how process shapes flavor. If you're mapping a bourbon weekend, this stop belongs near the top.Night settles in Lexington, and a camouflaged speakeasy hides behind floor-to-ceiling books. Ring the bell, find your assigned seat, and let the bartenders build you something you didn't know to request. A cognac-and-Stagg creation, a dealer's-choice masterpiece, and an atmosphere that feels more like 1930 than theme night—it's all craft, no gimmick. We even stumble into bike polo connections that loop back to a past guest and a court we once found on a Sunday ride. That's the joy of these trips: the people you meet, the stories you collect, and the way a city becomes more than a waypoint.We also preview Bourbon Country Burn from our base at the Kentucky Horse Park—routes, tastings, and a few live clips coming next.
