SRAM and RockShox. Chances are you know these names because you've seen them on your bike. But SRAM, the parent company for brands like RockShox, Truvativ, Zipp, Quarq, Time and Hammerhead, is much more than a company that builds bike parts; they're community builders. Find out more about their efforts to build up the cycling community in Colorado Springs and around the world through their SRAM Field Guide program, in this conversation. Global bike part manufacturing company SRAM began in 1987 and was named after founders Scott King, Stan Ray Day & Sam Patterson. Their Vision Statement is “We believe in the power of bicycles in expanding the potential of cycling. We create manufactured components and inspire cyclists.” The position of SRAM Field Guide was created to provide community representatives to help them fulfill their mission and to make an impact for cycling in the communities where they reside. There are currently 13 of 31 of the SRAM Field Guide positions filled, with opportunities open in the midwest, northeast and across the globe. Host: Torie Giffin, owner of the Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort, ride leader and ambassador for cycling in Colorado Springs  Guests: Chris Negrete, SRAM North American Field Guide Manager and mountain biker Molly Murrow, SRAM Southern Colorado Field Guide, hard core mountain biker  Mentioned in This Episode: Aravaipa Running and Races https://www.aravaiparunning.com/ Ascent Cycling https://www.ascentcycling.net/ Bike to Work Day June 22 https://coloradosprings.gov/bikes/page/annual-biking-events Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort http://bicycleresort.com Colorado High School Cycling League https://coloradomtb.org/ Colorado Springs Cycling Club https://www.bikesprings.org/ Criterium Bicycles https://www.criterium.com/ Kids on Bikes Colorado Springs https://kidsonbikes.net/ The Pikes Peak APEX 4 Stage MTB Challenge sponsored by RockShox https://www.pikespeakapex.com/ Routes Outfitter https://routesoutfitter.com/ SRAM https://www.sram.com/en/sram SRAM Careers https://www.sram.com/en/company/careers Trails End Taproom Trailblazers https://www.trailsendtaproom.com/trailblazers Women's Mountain Biking Association of Colorado Springs (WMBA) https://www.wmbacos.org/ Special thanks to Studio 809 Podcasts Supporter and Community Partner, Springs Homes.

Paul Laursen, PhD is an author, endurance coach, high-performance consultant and entrepreneur. He has competed in 17 Ironman triathlon races and has published over 125 peer-reviewed papers in exercise and sports science journals. We’ve had him on the podcast once before to discuss High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), and he’s since co-authored a book and developed an online course on the topic. In this podcast, Paul and I take an even deeper dive into HIIT, including the specific physiological benefits that just aren’t available with lower intensity aerobic training. He describes his book and training course, which bridge the gap between the science and application of HIIT. We also get into some of the technology, gadgets, and sports psychology concepts that Paul uses in his coaching.

In this episode of the Pursuit of the Perfect Race, I talk with my friend Rebecca McKee. We talk about her recent age group win at IRONMAN© Arizona. You’ll notice we both sound under the weather, at the time of the interview we both were kind of sick to be honest. I’m still getting over a cough and still sound nasally. But, the show must go on. Cliff English works with Rebecca to have a superior performance at Arizona and with Kona still in the recent rear view mirror, this is a very delicate balance of recovery, mental time off, nutrition, and hard intensity. There were a few issues that the race venue has and I’d like to point out from an athlete safety stand point. Pay attention to this as you listen.

I conclude my journey through the IRONMAN© World Championship sponsored by Amazon with my friend, coach, and wonderful person Rebecca McKee. Rebecca came on earlier this year and we dove into many aspects of her training and mindset going into this race. She is the coach of the talented athlete Tom Deakins who completed the Fire & Ice 250K race in Iceland. In this episode we talk about how anxiety and stress impacted her on race day and even the week of the race. Changing kits days prior to the race should not be the norm, but there were a few situations where it is suggested. The Jelly Fish in Kona this year were furious and we discuss what happened to her and how this affected her going into the race. Her bike strategy is defiantly unique and with her confidence level and knowing the Queen K, she uses this to her advantage. Thank you very much Rebecca for coming back on, sharing your knowledge, time, and energy with me.

Andrew Talansky has history with SRAM dating back to his early days as an elite cyclist. A longtime fan of eTap, Zipp wheels, and Quarq power meters, Andrew reached out to us after he retired from road racing to partner with his plan to become a pro Ironman Triathlete. Talansky raced as a top pro GC rider for nine years collecting impressive wins at the Criterium du Dauphine, the US National Time Trial Championships, and scoring top 10’s at the Tour de France, the Vuelta España, and the Amgen Tour of California. We sat down with Andrew to talk about his switch to the Ironman format, learn how the adaptation to new training and racing is going, and to find out more about his long-term aspirations.

I continue my Cour de’Alene 70.3 series with the Winner Haley Chura. She has had an amazing season coming off of IRONMAN© Brazil into this race.

Amidst driving cross-country, moving from California to Vermont, Ted swings through an eyeopening Spearfish, SD. The original beacon was the Gold Rush Gravel Race, but Spearfish is also home to industry leader Quarq. Ted and founder Jim Meyer have been happily acquainted since as early as 2008, so the two had lots to catch up on across the cycling spectrum in their ten year history.

The breakaway. It is perhaps the noblest form of victory, and the most difficult. Joining and then winning from breakaways is as much art as science, as much tactical awareness as strength. In this episode, Trevor Connor and Caley Fretz are joined by Cannondale-Drapac's escape ace Toms Skuijns, winner of two breakaway stages of the Tour of California, as well as VeloNews managing editor Chris Case, to discuss the tips, tricks, and tactics needed to make a breakaway move stick. Fast Talk is presented by Quarq.

A special LIVE edition of "Jim and the Other Guy" from the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA for the official launch of ERO(www.areyouaero.com) where Jim, joined by Katie Kyme, interview the head of ERO and RETUL Bike Fit Guru Jim Manton. The three discuss the benefits of ERO testing and how it can help YOU on race day. ERO is an exciting new technology which calculates drag on a rider who is actually moving vs wind tunnel testing where the rider is stationary.  Next, we learn a bit more about Katie Kyme and her race experiences. And in the final segment of the show, Jim Meyer, founder and creator of Quarq Power Meters sits in to discuss his history in sport, future of Quarq, and his experience with the ERO system.  This is an extremely informational/fun episode. ENJOY!
