Tour Talk and DJ's Riding the (Over)train to Leadville

Episode 160 - Tour Talk and DJ's Riding the (Over)train to Leadville

What up party people. Thanks for all the positive feedback y’all gave us for the episode with Alex Howes last week. Sounds like y’all really enjoyed having him mixed into the conversations, which probably says more about Howesy himself than anything we brought to the table but nonetheless, we enjoyed it too. Hopefully we can have Alex back in the hot seat again soon for y’all to pick up where we left off.

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).

Every time you hop in the shower to shave those yeti legs, Bolt brings the silky smooth gift of the most advanced leg shaving experience money can buy.

Head over to boltshave.com today and use the code “BROS15” at checkout.

Next up is our friends over at Bike Tires Direct where you can get basically anything you could possibly want or need to support your cycling addiction. I just just got back from ripping my way through the high country of Crested Butte, Colorado while putting some new Vittoria Barzos to the test and so far I’ve been pretty impressed. They handled the chunk like an absolute champ (even though I did hit the deck at one point, but that wasn’t the tires fault), and I even won our local short track race on them last night to prove they can also rip some steamy fast trail racing. Check out all the tires from Vittoria and countless other brands over at biketiresdirect.com and use the code “bonkbros” at checkout. 

For all bike maintenance and marginal gains needs head over to Silca.cc and use the code “Bonkbrosjuly2025” at checkout for a sweet little discount. With the popularity of chain waxing gaining mucho traction this year at the Tour, don’t miss out on those extra watt savings and not only that, Silca chain wax has been proven to save you extra lifespan on your precious drivetrain components which is a pretty big deal given how expensive chains and cassettes have gotten these days. Check out all the chain waxing options and so much more from our homies at Silca, and again that’s code “Bonkbrosjuly2025” for an extra discount.

This week DJ gave us an update on the latest status of his leg recovery, including his first time out on dirt since the accident. If you should find yourself in a similar situation where you come into contact with a moving vehicle while out riding, make sure you always have your go-to resource handy to help you navigate the legality of the situation. Scarborough Bicycle Accident Law wants to be with you every step of the way throughout the process, and to show their continued support beyond the court room, they’re now offering TWO FREE months of coaching with Ignition Coach Co for any of our listeners who find themselves in that unfortunate situation. Just mention the Bonk Bros sent you and they will get you back on the bike ASAP.

And last but not least this week is definitely a brand you’ll be seeing plenty of over the next few weeks at the Tour. That’s right, our trustworthy homies over at KetoneAid are doing ketone supplementation right so if you want to get your hands (or mouth) on that same liquid gold as all the fast bois at the Tour then click the link in the show notes to get you some today. 

Alright that’s all the business for today, let’s get this party started!
