Raising the Barre with Boulder Ballet Live

Artistic Director Ben Needham Wood discusses the upcoming performance "Mindfield".

Catherine Lasak joined Boulder Ballet in 2023 and is loving life in Colorado!

Sarah Cooper joins us to discuss the crazy difficult Adirondack Trail Race...where she took the overall victory!  This was Sarah's first foray into bike packing and she crushed it.

Softstar shoes are handcrafted in Oregon.  Super comfortable for every day or, as I found, after a very long ride.  Great to slide your fit into these following a full day in cycling shoes.  I decided to contact the owner of the company and have a chat about the shoes she creates!

We are talking 2021 Masters Nationals with phenomenal athlete Kyle Pitman who has a diverse background in cycling ranging from one of the fastest 8 person relay teams in the history of RAAM to paracycling.  Kyle will be racing the 45-49 category in both the 40k ITT and road race.  We'll be checking in with him following both races next week.  

Sylvia Maas has had quite the year from her Covid RAW, winning the overall solo division of the Longhorn 500, winning her 2 person division in Race Across the West, crewing the RAO 260 and is currently riding her bike to Michigan.  With a true love of cycling and her number one goal of keeping it fun, Sylvia is an ultra athlete in the true sense of the word!

Leah Goldstein joins us for Part 2 of our interview about her experiences during the 2021 RAAM.  

2021 Race Across Oregon overall solo winner Shane Trotter joins us from the RAO finish line.

Christie Tracy joins us from the Race Across Oregon finish line upon completion of her winning ride at the 2021 RAO!

2021 Solo Champion Leah Goldstein joins us to talk about her experiences getting to the start, how she stayed motivated through training when not knowing whether or not she'd get to race, crew, logistics, heat and much more.  Part 2 will focus much more on Leah's experiences throughout the race.

We catch up with Sarah about her experiences crewing for Erik Newsholme at Race Across America, her upcoming gravel events which she'll be directing and the possibility that we may see her on the saddle at WTTC! 

Georgi Stoychev checks in from Idaho with a rundown of the first few days of Bike Non-Stop US.  Conditions have been brutal to say the least with temperatures over 120 degrees, headwinds and services which are few and far between.  Georgi is currently in 3rd place overall and riding through Nebraska.  We'll catch you up with Georgi's recorded reports until we can get him live.

Wildlife Generation Pro Cycling's Cormac McGeogh checks in from Sibiu, Romania with a report on the Tour of Romania.  He had a tough prologue where a flat tire cost him time and then suffered health issues during Stage 1 which ended up with him in the hospital.  However, he's remaining in Romania with the team and providing us with updates of the race!

Chris Bagg and Molly Balfe join us to discuss the forming of the company and partnership, why, though they are multisport athletes they have their clients participate in a wide variety of OBRA events and what you should look for when selecting a coach

Georgi will be starting with a field of 18 unsupported riders on a 3500 mile (which includes more than 1200 miles of bike trails!) race across the United States.  He's hoping to ride from Portland, OR to the Lincoln Memorial in 16 days while raising money for breast cancer research.

Chuck Kenlan joins us to discuss both the 2020 and 2021 seasons.  The outlook is excellent for bicycle racing in the Northwest!!
