Episode 5: Xavier Gorloo -- Part 2 -- “One Bite Brownie and The Bolt"
<p>“One Bite Brownie and The Bolt"</p><p><strong>In this episode, Xavier Gorloo returns to share the creation story of a future classic: a bolted multipitch route in the Ya Ha Tinda area, west of Sundre, Alberta. The route was given the name “One Bite Brownie,” and those of you who have brought Two Bite Brownies along on any adventure can probably relate to that title.</strong></p><p><strong>Once again, Xavier captivates us with his enchanting storytelling style, reminiscent of pioneer climbers in the Bow Valley who have inspired him and even acted as his mentors. Now, it’s quite evident that it’s Xavier’s turn to forge his way up unexplored crags and leave his mark on climbing history in the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rockies.</strong></p>

Episode 4: Nick Edwards and Race to the Rock
<p>Nick is one of those people who make you feel like you’ve known them for a lifetime even if you’ve only spent a video chat together. Nick’s storytelling is captivating and his stories are as unique and quirky as the bikes he rides for work on a daily basis. Nick has a particular way of turning every ordinary thing in his life into some kind of extraordinary adventure. In this episode we listen to Nick recount his experience getting in touch with his Australian roots while completing one of the most absurd bikepacking races on the planet. The Race to the Rock is a 3700+ kilometer race from the coast of Australia to Uluru (the big rock in the middle of the Outback). The course is different every year and the year Nick raced, he departed from the Iconic Sydney Opera House. He placed second overall in what was a truly magnificent monster of a ride. So, buckle up, this is a crazy story.</p>

Episode 3: Dave Waugh & Julia Halwa -- "It Goes, But You Shouldn't"
<p>Dave Waugh and Julia Halwa are both highly accomplished cyclists, outdoor enthusiasts, and adventurers. Each has a seemingly never-ending library of epic, glory-filled adventure stories. In this episode, however, they dive into one of their lesser-known feats of human endurance. What was once a notable ride highlighted in Doug Eastcott’s book, Backcountry Biking in the Canadian Rockies, has since turned into a bushwhacking purgatory for a single hiker—let alone two humans pushing their bicycles. Prior to Dave and Julia’s “ride,” there was little to no documentation of this route being completed by bike for decades. As a great leader once said, “You have to go to know.” Well, Dave and Julia went—and they learned that the route does “go,” so you never have to.</p>
