Send us Fan Mail What happens when a beloved cycling tradition comes to an unexpected end? Let's reminisce about the Ride the Rockies, a cherished Colorado cycling event that has left us with both fond memories and unfulfilled dreams. As we ponder the fading glory of this iconic ride, we cast our eyes on the Bourbon Burn, a ride that may soon face a similar fate. With its charming camp atmosphere and distillery visits, we find ourselves planning one last hurrah, embracing the chance to savor ...

There's a particular rhythm to a long ride, a space where conversation flows as freely as the landscape. That's the atmosphere Adam Baranski and Michael Sharp cultivate in their Road Adventures of Cycling Men of Leisure. This isn't a technical gear review or a training log, though the love for the sport is its undeniable heartbeat. Instead, it's the recorded essence of a friendship built on miles, where the journey itself is the destination. You'll hear the banter from a recent gravel grind, the reflective quiet after a hill climb, and stories that stretch far beyond the handlebars, touching on culture, society, and the peculiar places a bike can take you. Each episode feels like rolling alongside them, sharing in the unscripted laughs, the occasional hardship, and the simple, profound joy found on two wheels. Tune in for a genuine connection and a reminder that the best adventures are often about who's riding with you.
