With the help of the Holy Spirit, we learned how to take every thought captive, allow our mind to lean on God, and ultimately THINK how Christ thinks, and the result is a peace-filled life. ✨ Yay for pure thoughts. ✨

Welcome to the only MTB podcast to provide you with suspect mountain bike expertise, best enjoyed while sunning your rear, paddling your shins, or taping down your “business” for that sweet aerodynamic gain. Oh, and we have pro riders like Jerrell Webster on. On this week's episode, we chewed through three core themes at a speed only barely hampered by our collective ADHD: 1) Debating the joys of escaping from traditional team sports into the beautiful, ego-destroying mayhem of mountain biking, 2) Exposing the seedy underbelly of the MTB world's obsession with tight kits, mysterious Facebook boomers, and our own online store that only seems to accept PayPal, and 3) Taking an overdue dose of reality about diversity on bikes, featuring Jerrell Webster's quest to make Rampage less pale. We sprinkle in some shinner injuries, unsolicited scooter opinions, and just enough political Facebook comment dumpster fires to keep your brain itching all week. We recommend you "smash" play harder than Sponch's mom if you want a “podshow” that delivers the gnar, the existential dread, and all the self-deprecating humor your tender little ears can handle. Just don't expect any useful advice—unless you consider life hacks like “always ready to shred” and “never trust a man who pedals” as gospel.  Guest info: Jerrell Webster Check out our store for sick shirts.
