    # Revving Up for Hill Climbing: Exciting New Ventures

    ## A Community-Focused Initiative Aaron shares how their journey began with a simple desire to give back to the hill climbing scene. "We debated this for not very long before we both jumped on board and we started 202 Speedco," he explains. The company’s website, [202speedco.com](https://202speedco.com), is now live and already processing orders. Ryan adds, "It’s pretty cool because when I started hill climbing, getting a paddle tire was like a mysterious endeavor. Now, we’re making it easier for everyone to find what they need." ## The Ultimate Tire In a candid moment, Aaron teases, "Ryan's ordered a tire that’s gonna be the ultimate weapon. I don’t think he wants to let the cat out of the bag, but it is gonna be the best tire ever." The anticipation builds as Ryan hints at a new design that could change the game for racers: "It’s gonna be like a seven hundred dollar tire, but man, is it gonna be cool?" ## Giving Back to the Sport The duo emphasizes that their mission is not profit-driven but about supporting the community. As Ryan puts it, "This community is one we love, and it’s pretty cool to be able to give back to it." They also plan to expand their offerings to include race fuel additives and oils, catering to the needs of racers everywhere. ## Recent Races and Community Spirit The conversation transitions to their recent experience at a hill climb event in Billings, Montana. Ryan describes the atmosphere: "It’s always a really, really good event, and it’s great to see both experienced and new riders come together." However, the day wasn’t without incident. They reflect on a scary moment involving a fellow racer, Tristan, who had a significant crash. Aaron recounts, "It was super scary... his hip was pretty wrecked and his shoulder." A GoFundMe has been set up to support Tristan during his recovery. ## Reflections on Racing Ryan and Aaron discuss the unpredictable nature of hill climbing and the importance of safety. They reminisce about the instincts that take over during a crash, highlighting the bravery required to make split-second decisions. Despite the day's challenges, the overall sentiment remains positive. As Ryan concludes, "Everything was organized, and it was super fun." There’s a sense of camaraderie in the air, reminding everyone why they love this sport so much. For more insights and a deeper dive into the world of hill climbing, check out the full episode!

    Norman Slade III

    Norman Slade III just turned his hometown hill into a breakthrough moment, and the story behind that first win is even wilder than the result. From a brutal Verticross crash and a wrist brace to a full-send ride that won by half a second, this Muskegon recap is packed with the kind of details hill climb fans live for. Ryan Wyatt and cowboy break down the rebuilt Muskegon National layout, the scary-looking but faster start, and how a dozer, fresh dirt, and a new rollout changed the whole hill. Norman explains what actually happened in the crash with RJ, why the top run felt different on a nitro bike, and how a quick piece of advice from Corey Smith helped him choose all-or-nothing on the run that put him on top. You'll discover: Why the Muskegon hill was redesigned after riders said last year was too sketchy How the new start added about 120 feet and changed the pace of the race What made the timing lights, the jump, and the optical illusion so controversial How Norman went from motocross kid to first-time pro winner Why propylene is becoming a make-or-break part of racing What it takes to haul bikes, chase points, and keep a season alive on a budget The episode also digs into the bigger picture around the sport right now - from the strength of the Muskegon Motorcycle Club's historic property to the upcoming Kansas, Devils Staircase, and national championship battles. Ryan and cowboy also preview the provisional rider picture, discuss the women's pro class, and honor the legacy and loss of Mitch Hohenhaus with a heartfelt tribute from the hill climb community. Norman's first win is only the beginning, and the confidence, momentum, and support around him make this one of the most encouraging conversations of the season. Essential listening if you love hill climbs, first-time winners, behind-the-scenes race strategy, and the people keeping this sport alive.
