Part 2 of our Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials interviews. If you haven't listened to part 1, I recommend checking it out. Our first two interviews are both with racers on electric motorcycles, but they are completely different. First up is Rennie Scaysbrook who is riding the fully faired Lightning motorcycle with a potential of 250+ mph. He has raced at Isle of Man and Pikes Peak, but this is his first time at Bonneville. He shares with us his first experiences on the salt. Next up we sit down with Kit and Bear on the Zero with a sidecar. This is their 2nd time at Bonneville, and they are feeling good about the 4 new speed records they set. But of course none of this would happen without the leadership of Delvene Reber. Liza asks her how she got involved with land speed racing, and how she manages such an amazing team of volunteers.

Send us Fan MailWinning Pikes Peak isn't just about fitness, it's about decisions you make when your lungs are burning, your stomach is turning, and the mountain keeps asking for more. I sit down with Chrissy fresh off her Pikes Peak Marathon win to replay the day from the first miles on Barr Trail to the long, lonely stretches above treeline where you don't get feedback from the pack, you only get truth from your own pacing.We talk about the tactical side of mountain racing: why the W's can ruin your race if you surge, how she stayed controlled even while moving into the lead, and what it's like to chase the men and run your own race when you're suddenly out front. Chrissy also gets real about race-morning nausea and the unsexy skill that separates great days from disasters: continuing to fuel with gels, fluids, and sodium so you still have something for the descent. If you care about trail running nutrition, high altitude strategy, and finishing strong instead of just surviving, you'll get a lot out of this one.From there we zoom out to the season that built this result, including consistency on trails, learning through frequent racing, and the value of having coach Rachel Spaulding and a tight Colorado Springs training community. Chrissy shares how she balances a demanding nursing career with training, why gravel biking helps her stay durable, and what's next as she pivots toward CIM and a faster road marathon while still keeping her heart in the mountains. We even nerd out on shoes, including why the La Sportiva Prodigio Pro felt so locked-in on Pikes Peak.If you enjoy these athlete deep dives, subscribe, share this with a training partner, and leave a rating and review so more runners can find the show.Follow Chrissy on IG - @Chrissy LofgrenUse code SteepStuff for 20% your cart on Sidas.usFollow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podFollow Sidas USA on IG - @sidas_usa

Send us Fan MailTen tries at Pikes Peak can either break you or build you. Our guest Darren Thomas shows exactly what it looks like when it builds you, turning a decade of near-misses into a 2026 Pikes Peak Marathon win that's equal parts patience, craft, and pure downhill grit. We talk through the emotions of finally getting the hometown title, the weird whiplash of flying home and going straight back to work, and why “post-race depression” gets easier to manage when you return to real life quickly. Then we get into the race breakdown trail runners actually want: where Kieran Hammer put pressure on the climb, how Darren refused to chase splits, what altitude felt like above treeline, and how a six-minute deficit at the summit disappeared fast once the descent began. We also dig into how the Bar Trail has changed over the years, why downhill running is a skill you earn, and what “racing by vibes” really means when you're trying to win at 14,000 feet. From there, the conversation widens into Darren's full 2026 trail running season, staying healthy after years of injury cycles, strength training, and the simple rule that saves careers: if it starts to hurt, don't run that day. We also talk long-distance racing, hydration and nutrition, chasing classic European events like Zegama and UTMB, sponsorship without becoming an influencer, and why stepping back from social media can make you a better athlete and a happier person. If you love mountain running, altitude training, and honest race strategy from a champion, this one delivers. If you enjoy the show, subscribe on Apple, Spotify, or YouTube, share it with a friend who loves trail racing, and leave a rating and review so more people can find Steep Stuff.Follow Darren on IG - @greatbasinrangerUse code SteepStuff for 20% your cart on Sidas.usFollow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podFollow Sidas USA on IG - @sidas_usa

Send us Fan MailOne mountain, nearly a century of stories, and a finish line that keeps moving further into the clouds. We sit down to unpack the deep history of the Pikes Peak Marathon and Pikes Peak Ascent, from its early ascent roots to the moment it becomes one of the most competitive mountain running events in the United States.We talk about how the race really starts taking shape, including the strange early “smokers vs non-smokers” era, the legends who helped define what was possible, and the athletes whose names deserve to be remembered. We dig into why the Pikes Peak results database matters so much, how Matt Carpenter shaped the race both on the trail and online, and why his records became the standard everyone measured themselves against.From skyrunning pivots and WMRA championship spotlight years to the Golden Trail World Series surge, we connect the dots between big organizational decisions and the moments fans still argue about. We also get practical about what makes Pikes Peak uniquely hard: altitude, weather swings, barometric pressure, and pacing traps like the W's.

After forty years in Louisiana and twenty in Colorado — including a stint breeding Clydesdales on the back side of Pikes Peak — artist Pamela Quarles Adams landed on Lake Norman five years ago and fell for downtown Davidson the very first time she saw it. What started as a studio above Good Drip Coffee became a full Main Street gallery representing eight other artists, an adult class waitlist over a thousand names deep, and, eventually, a decision she never expected to make: closing it all down to finally focus on her own work.Pamela joins Jeff to talk about the wildlife series that started with the indigenous animals of Louisiana and has followed her to every place she's lived, the Blue Ridge Mountain paintings she renders in flat blocks of color instead of realistic hues, and the single continuous contour line portraits that have to be finished in one sitting — including a Salvador Dalí piece a visitor is urging her to send to the Dalí Museum. She also shares the story behind her long-in-progress painting of Moose, the beloved Carolina red wolf, and her hope that his legacy can raise money for the sanctuary that cared for him.pamelaquarlesadams.comThe Best of LKN Podcastthebestoflkn.comHosted by:Jeff Hammlknreal.combannerelkliving.comSupport the show

Then we get into the deep cuts from a legendary racing resume: old-school triathlon days before modern fueling, the thin-air grind of Pikes Peak, and the Canadian Death Race where a tiny coin and a cold river crossing become part of the myth. Along the way, Bill shares what it was like racing the Haney to Harrison 100 and meeting Steve King long before most people knew him as the voice of Ultraman.The heart of the conversation is Ultraman Canada and the hard reality of shoulder surgery recovery.

Richard Tomlin shows up with the kind of racing story that makes you laugh first and then take notes: he ran Pikes Peak against teams with mind-blowing budgets, qualified into the “Hella Fast 15,” and still had his day complicated by a throwout bearing that was supposed to be the safe, new upgrade. We talk through what failed, how much time it cost, and why finishing still matters when the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is basically a stress test for every part you bolt to the car. If you love grassroots motorsports, hill climbs, and real-world problem solving, this one hits home. Then we shift from mountain racing to what keeps a high-performance shop moving in the Texas heat. Richard walks us through current builds and restorations, plus a preview of Wheels, Watches, and Whiskey near Bryan. From there, we get into practical summer automotive maintenance that can prevent overheating: cleaning the AC condenser and radiator stack, checking coolant and hoses, and the classic emergency move of turning the heater on full blast to buy yourself time to get off the road safely. It's unglamorous advice, but it's the kind that saves engines. Jeff brings the car culture debate with a rumored four-door Camaro and what GM might be planning in the performance sedan space, including design cues, tech choices, and potential powertrains. And because summer isn't over yet, Marrs closes with five camping destinations within two hours of Houston, from Brazos Bend State Park and Lake Livingston to Galveston Island State Park, Stephen F. Austin State Park, and Double Lake Recreation Area. Subscribe for more, share this with your car friend group, and leave a review with your take: would you ever buy a four-door Camaro?Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

It is the gently used water from laundry, bathroom sinks, and showers that can be reused to nourish landscapes instead of being sent straight to the sewer.Host Ally Richardson and Joe Petsche explore what it means to live in step with nature's boundaries and why Colorado Springs must adopt smarter, regenerative water strategies now.

The path of the Automotive Enthusiast is one that is full of fun and excitement, but there are many traps and challenges that await you along the road. Those of us that have been building, tracking, or racing cars for years will tell you that those traps and challenges are how you learn and that finding your way through these trials is as much a part of being an enthusiast as having a perfect trouble-free day at the track.There is an argument out there that the less you know about what could go wrong, or how challenging a task may be, the easier it is to get excited about it, and the more likely you are to jump in head first to the challenge.Ignorance is Bliss as they say…I was having a conversation with Dewey about some of the recent issues that we ran into with our Pikes Peak car, specifically about how a very simple and cheap part caused a somewhat significant issue on our run up the mountain this year, and how frustrating it can be to work through these problems. He said that there has to be something like the Dunning-Kruger Effect that applies to Race Cars that related to what we were working through now, and which is something that most all of us who have frequently tracked our cars, or worked on or around a race team have run into.It was immediately clear that this was a broader conversation that we needed to have, and we decided to bring in Tony from Turn in Concepts to help us work through all of this, and hopefully gain a clearer perspective on why we push through all of this.I think that there is likely something in this conversation for anyone from a true novice that is just starting to think of taking their car to the track for the first time, through to someone like us that has been working around race cars for a while now, with full knowledge of what it takes to properly prep a car, and all that could go wrong when you are pushing a car at speed.I hope that you enjoy the conversation and Stay Tuned!

A 12-mile road, 156 turns, and stretches with no guardrail is a different kind of “car review” of the human brain. We sit down with Pikes Peak Hill Climb driver Ben Ryan to hear what it's really like to aim a purpose-built monster at the summit and keep your eyes on the next apex instead of the thousand-foot drop beside you.Ben breaks down his journey from watching the mountain as a kid to finally earning a spot after years of applying, then going back again and again because nothing else compares. We get into the details of Big Bird, an unforgettable build that pairs a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner body with a NASCAR chassis and roughly 800 horsepower to the wheels. Ben explains how he manages focus at altitude, why course familiarity matters when corners blend together, and how tire development data can change everything when you're pushing hard on a narrow mountain road.After the hill climb, we pivot to the headlines drivers see every week. Jeff's Motor Minute digs into Ford reliability news, JD Power initial quality rankings, and why “award” stories can look very different next to recall reports. Don also reviews the all-new 2026 Subaru Trailseeker EV, covering design, cabin tech, real-world charging habits, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, range expectations, and where it sits against electric SUV competitors.Subscribe for more real car talk, share this with a friend who loves motorsports or EVs, and leave a review so more listeners can find us.

The road to the top of Pikes Peak looks beautiful right up until you imagine missing a corner. We call Richard Tomlin from the mountain to get a real-time look at what it takes to compete at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb when the sun is brutal, the air is thin, and even cell service feels like it's fighting you. Richard walks us through a huge milestone for Apex Auto Works: the ApexOSET Miata based build qualifying in the Fast 15, plus the very different challenge of keeping “Big Bird” a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner, happy with carburetor tuning across massive elevation changes. We also dig into the heart of this year's story, a Plymouth Road Runner with deep family history that gets transformed for the mountain with NASCAR-derived hardware underneath, while still carrying the little details that make it a true legacy car. From there we talk race day reality: staging cars, camping, beating the crowds on the one road in and out, and why so many drivers use onboard oxygen to stay sharp at 14,000 feet. We also share where to watch the live coverage on Racer TV, then shift gears into our racing calendar, quick hits from automotive history, and a can't-believe-it story about a thief using a Waymo robotaxi as a getaway while police come up empty. If you love hill climb racing, grassroots engineering, classic muscle cars with modern race tech, and the weird edges of self-driving car privacy, hit play, then subscribe, share this with a car friend, and leave us a review.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

A Pikes Peak build is never just a build, it's a deadline, a weather gamble, and a test of whether your team can stay calm when everything tries to break at once. We catch up with Richard Tomlin from Apex Auto Works in Alvin, Texas, with the clock ticking two weeks out from the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. He walks us through the Apexoset, a Miata-based monster that keeps key Miata geometry and components but drops weight hard and runs a custom LS7-based setup making over 600 horsepower at the wheels. After taking a year off, the car returns with serious aero work, underbody tunnels, plus ABS and traction control, all aimed at cracking the top ten in a class where the rules reward power-to-weight and smart execution.Then there's Big Bird: a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner already in Colorado with a 2015 NASCAR engine that's loud, rowdy, and still sorting teething issues like a “puked” transmission and carb problems. We dig into what a dog box transmission is, why downshifts at Pikes Peak are a different kind of risk, and how a small Texas shop competes when other teams show up with one-car budgets in the millions. If you've ever wondered what grassroots motorsports looks like when it's pointed at a mountain, this is the candid version.We also hit quick racing news with a Motor Minute on the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix groundhog collision and what it says about wildlife safety on track. Finally, Don brings an honest 2025 Land Rover Range Rover review, covering design, interior quality, third-row reality, start-stop frustration, real-world mpg, and the six-figure price tag against competitors like the Lexus LX and Escalade.

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief rides into the shadow of Pikes Peak to sit down with Paul Dunning from 13th Century Whiskey in beautiful Colorado Springs.   Paul has built something truly unique in the whiskey world — a brand where every bottle is part of the experience. Each handcrafted release features a blown glass figure inside, from copper stills and aging barrels to incredible wildlife designs, making these bottles true shelf pieces and instant conversation starters.   Crafted at the base of Pikes Peak, 13th Century Whiskey ages its spirits in small 30-gallon barrels, creating bold cask-strength pours packed with flavor while remaining remarkably smooth.   Big Chief kicks things off with the Reserve Rye at 143 proof — unfiltered and unapologetic. Dark caramel, black pepper, baking spice, and toasted oak explode from the glass before finishing with a long warming spice.   He then moves to the Reserve Bourbon at 142.2 proof to close out the first half. Vanilla bean, maple syrup, dark cherry, and caramelized sugar coat the palate with a rich oily mouthfeel that drinks far smoother than the proof suggests.   On the second half, Big Chief pours the Cigar Blend — a toasted barrel-finished bourbon at 141 proof — and immediately gets transported back to childhood campfires and s'mores. Toasted marshmallow, graham cracker, melted chocolate, espresso, and charred oak create one unforgettable pour.   To finish the ride, Big Chief pours their American Single Malt at 134.4 proof, which quickly became the star of the show. Honey, toasted malt, dark fruit, chocolate-covered raisins, and subtle smoke deliver a rich and balanced finish that refused to quit.   Throughout the episode, Paul shares the story behind building 13th Century Whiskey, the inspiration behind the unforgettable bottles, and the passion required to stand apart in today's whiskey world.   Take the Ride. Cheers.
