For Episode 212, we've got Udo Blenkhorn and Pat Pero out of Quebec Canada. Both Pat and Udo are heavily involved with volunteer trail building, so much so that they decided to create a nonprofit organization called Dig !t for the purpose of helping other volunteer trail-building organizations. Dig !t serves many purposes for both individuals and trail organizations, with the central theme of organizing volunteer trail-building efforts. The latest addition to the Dig !t platform is a mobile app, which made its debut a couple of weeks ago on International Trail Day. Ultimately, Dig !t was created with the goal of streamlining community trail building so you can spend more time digging and less time doing admin work. Topics Include: The Pat backstory and mountain biking The Udo backstory and mountain biking How Pat and Udo got involved with volunteer trail building The Contagious Rock Creating Dig !t How mistakes led to efficiencies and getting it right The Trail Fairies How to find digs that are going on virtually everywhere Professionals and volunteers working together to create trails Different tiers of teammates, leaders, and chapter operators that are part of Dig !t How all of this consolidates and streamlines tracking of actions across the platform Operational efficiencies so you can spend more time working on trails and making the invisible visible The sense of belonging that Dig !t provides How people are assigned roles and levels of training to become a leader within Dig !t Dig !t customization at the chapter level (waivers, for example) Dig 24 – a 24-hour volunteer trail-building event What Udo looks for in a trail community What Pat looks for in a trail community Closing comments Trail EAffect Show Links: Dig !t: https://digittrailbuilders.org/ Show Support By: KETL Mtn Apparel Affiliate Link: https://ketlmtn.com/josh Trail One Components: https://trailone.bike/josh Smith's Bike Shop – 130 Years of Excellence: www.smithsbikes.com Trail EAffect Podcast Website: www.traileaffectpodcast.com Contact Josh at evolutiontrails@gmail.com This Podcast has been edited and produced by Evolution Trail Services

On today's Sidebar, we talk to Eric Anderson, who was a college freshman when he was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree armed robbery, assault and illegal use of a weapon. Despite having an alibi—and video showing he was elsewhere at the time of the robbery—Eric was found guilty and sentenced to 15 to 22 years in prison. He fought to prove his innocence, and with the help of the Michigan Innocence Clinic, his conviction was overturned in 2019. Today, Eric works with the Organization of Exonerees, helping others who have faced similar injustices. Visit our website at proofcrimepod.com. Follow us on social media.

Scott Baldwin knew he wasn't alone—he believed there were others like him who had been wrongfully convicted. In this third season of Proof, we heard many of those stories, along with a shocking revelation about why a key witness never testified in one of Kalamazoo's most horrific murder cases. Now, as the season comes to a close, where does that leave the investigation—and what happens next? On this week's Sidebar, Susan, Jacinda, and Kevin reflect on what they've uncovered, what still lies ahead, and why the story doesn't end here. Visit our website at proofcrimepod.com.

In the final episode of Proof: Murder at the Bike Shop, the team uncovers letters and documents suggesting a conspiracy that may have reached the highest levels of Kalamazoo's legal system—one aimed at preventing a key eyewitness from testifying in one of the county's most horrific murder trials. Nearly two decades later, what does this mean for the five Polderman defendants? Scott Baldwin is gone, but his case isn't the end of the story. As new evidence comes to light, it raises urgent questions about other cold case convictions—and for those still in prison who may have been wrongfully convicted, the story is far from over.

What happens when a kid who just wanted a motorbike ends up falling in love with endurance sport instead? In this episode of the ZenRUN Podcast, I chat with Rick Prince, founder of UESCA (https://uesca.com/) - the organisation where I completed my Ultra Running Coach Certification last year. Rick shares the story of how a cool red cycling helmet, a job in a local bike shop, and a love of being outside helped shape a lifelong passion for endurance sport. We talk about Rick's early years growing up in Pennsylvania, racing bikes seriously as a junior, studying kinesiology, and eventually building a business that set out to raise the standard of education for endurance coaches. He explains why he started UESCA, why so many people told him it was a terrible idea, and why he stuck with it anyway - even through those early years when it felt very hard and success was far from guaranteed. We also dive into the world of endurance and ultra sport more broadly - why more people seem drawn to longer events, trail running, gravel cycling and getting off the road and into nature. Rick shares some great insights around challenge, community, social connection, and why getting outside may be more important than ever in a world full of screens, notifications and constant input. One of my favourite parts of this chat is Rick's honest take on motivation. He talks about the value of having a goal, trying new things when training feels stale, and not being so rigid with ourselves. He also makes a really strong case for occasionally ditching the data, ignoring the Garmin, and going out for a run or ride simply for the joy of it. Honestly, I think a lot of us need that reminder. This was such a fun conversation - thoughtful, practical, and full of little gems for runners, coaches, and anyone who's ever wondered why we keep choosing hard things on purpose. Why You'll Love This Episode • The unexpected story of how Rick first got into endurance sport • What led him from cycling and kinesiology to founding UESCA • Why the early years of building a business were so tough • Thoughts on why ultra and endurance sport keep growing • Why trail and off-road sports feel so appealing right now • The power of community in endurance sport • A very honest look at motivation, injuries, stubbornness and burnout • Why sometimes the best thing you can do is leave the data behind and just go Tips from Rick • Have a goal - but it doesn't have to be a competitive one. • Keep things fresh by trying new events, trails, or even different types of training. • Don't assume feeling stale means something is wrong - sometimes it just means you need variety. • You do not need to be rigid all the time. • Every run or ride does not need to be about metrics. • Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is go out there, unplug, and do it for the fun of it. Next Big Adventures Rick shares that UESCA is continuing to expand internationally, including translated certifications, and is also developing new specialist courses around self-defence and trail self-autonomy. He's also launching a new fitness education business, the Academy of Integrated Human Performance, focused on the fitness industry. ⸻

Two tips that were never investigated could have changed everything in Scott Baldwin's case. It's too late for Scott—but not for the truth. Susan, Jacinda, and Kevin reflect on his final days—and the frustration of knowing the evidence that could have proven his innocence was there all along. In searching for answers, the team may have uncovered evidence that could help other Cold Case defendants. Visit our website at proofcrimepod.com. Follow us on social media.

Two overlooked tips could hold the answer to what actually happened to Earl O'Byrne—answers that, 25 years ago, would have spared Scott from a wrongful conviction. It's too late to undo what happened to Scott Baldwin, but if a judge grants resentencing, he may at least be able to die at home, with his family by his side. By chance, the PROOF team uncovers paperwork suggesting a conspiracy far bigger than anyone imagined—at the center of it, a longtime Cold Case informant. Visit our website at proofcrimepod.com.

In episode 9 of Proof: Murder at the Bike Shop, we explored a critical question: why would someone confess to a crime they didn't commit? You heard it in the story of the Polderman defendants, where multiple confessions raised serious doubts about what really happened. On this week's SIDEBAR, we go deeper with Dr. Tina Zottoli—a NYS licensed clinical psychologist and Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Montclair State University—who explains the psychology behind false confessions and how they can lead to wrongful convictions.

Scott Baldwin told us to keep digging. So we went back to the murders of Marinus and Sary Polderman and their daughter, Anna Lewis, who were brutally killed in their Michigan home in August 2000. The case went cold until eight years later, when five people were convicted. But what if the Kalamazoo Cold Case Team got it wrong?

In this week's SIDEBAR, Susan Simpson, Jacinda Davis, and Kevin Fitzpatrick break down Murder at the Bike Shop: Episode 8 — including why they couldn't let a big snake stop them from collecting a bag of clothes that may contain critical DNA evidence. They talk about what it was like re interviewing Scott Baldwin's ex-girlfriend, a key witness in his case, and explain how even well-intentioned conversations with witnesses can reshape memories.

Over the years, Scott Baldwin's appeals focused on one alternate suspect. But what if investigators overlooked someone else — a person who, by all accounts, should have been investigated? The PROOF team travels to Kalamazoo to uncover information about a potentially missed suspect in the murder of Earl O'Bryne. While there, they begin looking more closely at the Polderman murders and the five people convicted of the crime. Visit our website at proofcrimepod.com. Follow us on social media.

The PROOF team returns for Sidebar to break down Episode 6 of Murder at the Bike Shop — “The Boogeyman.” Suppressed evidence. An alternate suspect. And one person who seems to know too much. Evidence that may have changed Scott Baldwin's fate. Wrongful conviction investigations are often defined by the leads that were missed — or never shared.

For decades, an alternate suspect has been the center of scrutiny in the murder of Earl O'Byrne. The PROOF team uncovers a connection between this suspect and a key piece of evidence that was never fully investigated.

At trial, the prosecutor claimed Scott Baldwin must be guilty because he “stole” the bank bags — and because he liked the song “Butterfly” by Tapping the Vein. But the bank bags were never stolen, and songwriter Heather Thompson explains the song's real meaning to Susan. In this week's SIDEBAR, Susan, Jacinda, and Kevin revisit the State's case against Scott. They also take a closer look at the case against Hyland Sterling — and the questions that remain.

Song lyrics. Alleged confessions. Stolen bank bags and a box of coins. This was the evidence that led a jury to convict Scott Baldwin. But what if one overlooked detail could have unraveled the State's case?

The fourth episode of Proof: Murder at the Bike Shop raised more questions about the case against Scott Baldwin — blood or bondo, confession or no confession? In this week's SIDEBAR, Susan, Jacinda, and Kevin dig into what makes sense, what doesn't, and why the state's theory doesn't add up.

Stacey told police that her ex-boyfriend, Scott Baldwin, killed Earl O-Byrne, but they didn't believe her. So why, 12-years later, did the Kalamazoo Cold Case Team decide she was telling the truth? What will she say 25 years later when the PROOF team talks to her? The team also looks at another Kalamazoo cold case with similarities to Baldwin's: the 1991 murder of 27-year-old Christine Dimmick.

The brutal 1988 murder of 83-year-old Kalamazoo bike shop owner Earl O'Byrne is shocking. Earl is a fixture in the community who has sold just about every kid in town their first bicycle. Despite numerous tips, the case goes cold. But over a decade later Scott Baldwin is arrested by the newly formed Cold Case Team and is convicted of killing Earl.
