It might only be Wednesday, but this week is absolutely massive for us at Life in the Peloton. It's the week of the Dirty Docker—our inaugural cycling and running festival happening up in my hometown of Lancefield this weekend! With such an exciting event on the horizon, I thought, why not dedicate this entire podcast to the Dirty Docker? This event has been over a year in the making, and I can't wait to share all the details with all of our listeners. Even if you can't make it to Lancefield, whether you're overseas or just tied up, I want you to feel like you're part of the action. We'll be diving deep into what the Dirty Docker is all about. From cross-country running to cyclocross, and of course, our premier event—the Cobawsome Gravel Ride—there's something for everyone. But that's not all. We'll also be exploring each of these disciplines with the experts who helped bring them to life. You'll get to understand the roots of cross-country running, the history of cyclocross, and the unique aspects of our Dirty Docker cyclocross course, including a nod to the iconic Cross Vegas course. Plus, my good mate and the voice of the Dirty Docker, Paul Van Der Ploeg, will join us for a deep dive into the gravel phenomenon—where it's been, where it's going, and what makes it so special. So, whether you're gearing up to join us this weekend or just tuning in from afar, this episode is packed with insights and excitement to get you pumped. I'm really excited for this one, guys. Give it a listen and get ready for an epic weekend! Cheers, Mitch

September 18, 2013 Host Drew Edsall is joined by Rotem Ishay and Skyler Trujillo while on location at Interbike in Las Vegas. Rotem is a 9-time Israeli National XC Mountain Bike Champ and Skyler is one of the top young racers. Listen in as they discuss everything from blood testing for performance and recovery to the Cross Vegas race and the Boo Bus.

The Boo Bicycles - TrainingPeaks Cyclocross team will be based around young and promising Colorado riders Skyler Trujillo and Rotem Ishay.

Skyler caught the nation’s attention by being selected to race in the U23 Cyclocross World Championships last February in Louisville, KY. Though Rotem raced a more regional cyclocross schedule last year, he had strong results against local professionals and has three medals from Collegiate Mountain Bike and Cyclocross Nationals to his name in the last year alone.
