Episode 135: Fat bike racing extraordinaire, Buddy Mixon!

Episode 137: Sixes Pit is back! Featuring Angel Rivera

We got Angel on to share his story of bikes, running one of the most successful bike shops in GA, shutting it down after a long good run, taking time off and traveling the country, and then coming back in a different way to the GA bike scene. Great to be able to share a positive story of a bike shop that is actually coming back into the GA market rather than another one shutting down. We discuss how the look and feel of a bike shop is changing to stay alive and what he is doing to try to set himself up for success. About Sixes Pit Garage Sixes Pit Garage was built on a simple idea: bikes bring people together. What started years ago as a community bike shop has evolved into a more personal, rider-focused experience centered around quality service, honest communication, and a genuine passion for cycling. Today, Sixes Pit Garage operates from the home front, allowing us to provide one-on-one attention, flexible scheduling, pickup and drop-off options, and a level of care that can be difficult to find in larger retail environments. This is a new chapter for Sixes Pit Garage, but the mission remains the same: Build community. Do great work. Help people ride. Let Me Ride.

Episode 136: Bound for Unbound

MTB Lawyer is packing up the drop bar gravel bike and ready to hit up one of the largest offroad cycling races in the world Unbound! We discuss how the race is looking to shake out as it is just a couple days out. Months and month of training and preparation have led up to this moment! It is game time for the Gnar Gnomie to make us all proud! We also chat about the Gnar Gnomes new bike, and some latest regular mtb rides. So clip into your SPD pedals and have you a listen Gnar Gnation!

Episode 135: Fat bike racing extraordinaire, Buddy Mixon!

Buddy does things differently. You can't miss the guy, as he is always rocking his bright red drop bar Trek bike with giant fat tires on it, hitting every bike race on the scene. Doesn't matter if it is a mountain bike race, gravel or road he is there, and on the front with his fat bike. The dude has huge stoke for the sufferfest and exploring anywhere by bicycle. I originally met him at the Coldwater Lifetime mtb race and was taken aback and drawn to his crazy rig and attitude. We unpack his story along with some amazing wins at Leadville, Unbound, Gravel Worlds etc. So lower that tire pressure Gnar Gnation, and get ready for this wild ride! Here are some of his race accolades all on fatbike: Unbound 200 Fatbike category 1st Gravel Worlds 150 Fatbike category 1st The MidSouth 100 Fatbike category 4th Coldwater Trail 50k BWR Asheville 100 Cohutta 100 Homegrown Gravel 100 Assault on Currahee 6 Gap Century Covington Century Southern Cross 6 hours of Yargo Masters category 1st https://www.instagram.com/thezombywooof/ https://strava.app.link/1CO8uq6a52b

Episode 134: Catch up on the "Off-roadish Bike Podcast"

This is a good ole fashion catch up with the Gnar Gnomie and The Lawyer. Fair warning a lot of drop bar/gravel conversation happens on this one, but hey we always have to change it up am I right?! We discuss the usual latest rides, a new bike purchase, events, latest tech and trends, and of course get the low down \ from The Lawyer on training for Unbound. Make sure your clipless pedals are adjusted and clip in for this one gnar gnation!

Episode 133: The man behind Coldwater, Marcus Tillman!

Marcus and I have been trading messages for awhile to connect over the podcast, but it is hard to do when he is either always behind an excavator, handlebars, or just on a trail in general. That is why we brought the podcast to his excavator literally. Marcus is the recreational trail director for Anniston, Alabama, but most just know him as "The Trail Guru". The dude has been around the MTB scene a long while and a staple in the Alabama/Southeast riding community. We learn about his personal life history in bikes, discuss old school bikes, e-bikes, riding styles, trails, and how he got so involved in the scene over time.
