Seventy-five episodes! When we started this podcast, neither of us thought we'd make it past five or seven shows. Yet here we are, celebrating a milestone that represents years of friendship, thousands of miles cycled together, and a community that has grown beyond anything we imagined.

Michael kicks things off with an update on his collarbone recovery - the x-rays look good, but he's still not able to raise his arm fully. Despite the injury, we're both confirmed for Bourbon Burn, complete with official tournament-level cornhole boards emblazoned with the Cycling Men of Leisure logo. We're extending an open invitation to all listeners attending to stop by our campsite for bourbon tastings and leisurely conversation around the fire.

The heart of this episode takes us on a nostalgic journey through our podcasting adventure. We've cycled over 5,300 miles together on organized rides, interviewed five different ride directors and two bike manufacturers, and created 30 Listener Spotlight segments. Our audience now spans 62 countries, with our largest international listener base coming from the United Kingdom. The stories we've shared - from the infamous heart-shaped hot tub hotel mishap to the photo-finish go-kart race - have connected us with listeners who recognize that cycling is about more than just the ride; it's about the experiences along the way.

What began as two friends chatting about bikes has evolved into something much more meaningful: a community. Whether it's our team members supporting each other at Big Brag or listeners recognizing each other on rides across the country, we've created connections that extend far beyond the microphone. As we look toward our next adventures, we remain grateful for every person who's joined us on this journey. Because ultimately, that's what makes every day a great day for a bike ride.
