King of the Ride

Episode 172: Cam Jones, The Sky's the Limit

Cam Jones is on a tear. As the reigning Unbound champion and taking top honors at the Life Time Grand Prix in 2025, he's a man on a mission. This conversation comes at the tail end of Cam's summer back home in New Zealand, on the verge of his upcoming trip to North America to kickoff the 2026 campaign. Cam's story is one of perseverance. It's not easy to make the trip from the other side of the globe to try your hand among the world's best, but Cam did that starting in about 2022 in the pursuit of the mountain bike world cup circuit. Through some misadventures, perhaps a trip to a detention center through a misunderstanding and stern border patrol agent, he ultimately found his way to the wild card spot at the 2025 LTGP and of course the rest is well recorded history. * You can follow Cam on his instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/camjonesnz/ [https://www.instagram.com/camjonesnz/] * Please check out O-Liv olive oil and polyphenol supplements. www.o-liv.com [http://www.o-liv.com] and use code ted55 for 55% off! * As always, thanks to Matt Scarborough and Bicycle Accident Law for supporting the show. www.bicycleaccidentlaw.com [http://www.bicycleaccidentlaw.com]

Episode 171: Pete Stetina is "Feeding the Rat"

With the recent release of Pete's documentary "Feeding the Rat" I was eager to get some time with Pete to discuss the entire expanse of his career. We sat down in 2019 as he was a World Tour pro eyeing a segue to gravel and now seven years later he's expressed an interest in doing this his own way as he segues away from the 10 out of 10 competitive level. Look, I understand it. Once a racer, always a racer. It's hard to step away and Pete is juggling a whole lot.
