The Tour Finale and the Pre-Pre-Leadville 100 Gravel Race Episode

Episode 162 – The Tour Finale and the Pre-Pre-Leadville 100 Gravel Race Episode

What up party people. Welcome back for another fun episode of the Bonk Bros Podcast where we’re talking about our thoughts on the Tour finale, getting into all things drop bars at the Leadville 100 Mountain Bike (I mean gravel) race, as well as our reaction to Dizzle’s latest round of VO2max testing, and plenty more.

 

As always, this episode is brought to you by some of our AMAZING partners who continue to stand by our side and bring you access to some of our favorite products that we use on the daily.

 

For all of your bicycle tire and accessory shopping needs head over to Bike Tires Direct (or BTD as we call them) and use code “bonkbros” when checking out for a sweet little discount. BTD was kind enough to support the Crested Butte training camp that I co-hosted a few weeks ago and sent us a boat load of tires for the athletes to demo, along with some Silca sealant, and they also provided us with a couple of the newest head units from Garmin, the Edge MTB. We got to put these rugged little buggers to the test over the course of the week and one of the lucky campers even got to go home with one after we raffled it off at the end of camp. If you’re in the market for a new bike computer and you’re anything like me and constantly breaking these darn things then be sure to check out the Garmin Edge MTB head unit over at Bike Tires Direct.

 

Next up if you’re just sick of having to always pretend like you’re buying razors for your wife at the store every time you run out of leg shavers, then check out the best razors for men who shave their legs from our friends over at BOLT Skin + Shave. And for an extra 15% off that silky smooth shave experience type in code BROS15 at checkout. That’s Bolk Skin + Shave (code: BROS15)

 

Oh yeah we've also got the lovely crew over at Silca, our longest running show sponsor who's always developing the latest in marginal gains products plus a whole bunch more. Silca too was a sponsor of the Crested Butte camp, setting us up with Crockpotanator 4000s, tons of Secret Blend wax and all the various chip additives, they made sure we were washing bikes in style every night with the Bike Spa treatment, plus they made sure each camper went home with some Super Secret wax drip lube. Check out any of these products and more over at Silca.cc and use the code “Bonkbrosjuly2025” for discount at checkout.

 

 

 

Just a few more here for y’all.

 

If you’re still in the process of dialing in your training and racing fueling strategy (which you should always be doing) then you need to experiment with the magical powers of ketone esthers by the folks over at KetoneAid. Once you do, you’ll quickly find that unlike the absolute monstrosity of sugary concoctions high carb drink mixes are, KetoneAid brings you a product that can be used for both on the bike and off the bike fueling to support overall lifestyle performance. Use ketones for things like enhancing cognitive function, improving recoverability and sleep, and even for that afternoon pick-me-up before you leave the office to head home and hammer out a training ride. Click the link in the show notes for free shipping.

 

Speaking of hammering out rides, if you’re serious about your fitness but just don’t have the time or resources available to work with a coach, don’t overlook the power of AI to help you curate an effective and easy to follow training plan for your situation. JOIN cycling wants to make sure that every rider has access to a training program just like that and even wants to offer you a FREE month of training when you can head to join.cc/campaigns/bonkbros or click the link in the show notes.

 

And last one for today is Bicycle Accident Law. Spearheaded by Matthew Scarborough, who is with you on every ride, for better or worse, Bicycle Accident Law is your go-to resource any time you’re involved with a vehicle incident while out riding and need advice navigating the legal process that follows. Just mention the Bonk Bros sent you if you’re in need of their services for a bonus offer, including a month of FREE coaching with Ignition Coach Co when you return to riding.

 

Alright I hear ya, that’s enough business talk for today, if you have any questions or feedback for the show you can drop us a note at [e-mail] or hit up the Bonk Bros instagram page (@bonkbros @dylanjawnson @adamsaban6 @tylerclouti @raddaddizzle @scottmcgilljr).

 

Let’s get this party started!
