    Episode 144: Bond Almand -- A 13,595 Mile, Record Setting Ride

    Bond Almand just rode a record setting pace from the northern tip of Alaska to the southern tip of Argentina. Over 75 absolutely wild days, Bond rode into ferocious headwinds, among throngs of cities, highways, oil fields, high mountains, great plains and desert, and so much more to make it to Ushuaia, Argentina.  More than 13,500+ miles later, he made it. Keep his website nearby: www.bondalmand.com as you'll want to cross reference it often. Check out drinkAG1.com/tedking

    Episode 143: Melisa Rollins -- Professional Cyclist

    Melisa Rollins is our esteemed guest today. She’s been in the game for a handful of years, but she’s quickly turning heads, especially here in 2024. Earning the most acclaim was a smashing victory at Leadville, the hallowed 100 mile mountain bike race scraping across some of Colorado’s highest peaks. She just won Iceman Cometh. She was second in the life time Grand Prix. She’s won Chequamegon, she’s podiumed the overall at Redlands. She has seven Leadvilles to her name. And she's seemingly just getting warmed up!

    Episode 141: UCI Gravel Worlds with the Kings -- Laura and Ted Talk Belgian Gravel

    In particular, "Brussels Gravel" is on topic today. There has been lots of chatter about the course itself. The less than enthusiastically dubbed bike path world championships. In this conversation, Laura and Ted break down their perspectives on the course itself and what Belgium has to offer; the astounding level of World Tour competition (looking at you Lotto Kopecky and Mathieu van der Poel!); the type of support from USACycling, and how the race shook out... among other things.

    Episode 137: Adam Roberge -- Professional Gravel Racer (🇨🇦 National Champion!)

    Adam Roberge is on a tear. By my count, he's won the past three consecutive races, four out of the past five, plus plenty more to his tally this year alone. Today we'll talk about all the things you might imagine, the two of us racing together and landing in identical spots on consecutive weekends, how he got into cycling, what's happening with the general state of cycling in Canada, and his national championship win this year. We'll talk about the more controversial topics like using logic and game theory (i.e. tactics) to win races, aero socks, and aero bars. That and so much more coming up! You can see my Nepomuk Narly race recap here: https://youtu.be/Tnsn_vs5we4 And get your hands on some AG1, gosh darn it, by visiting: drinkAG1.com/tedking Follow along on Adam's adventures here: @adamroberge
