feel the GRAVEL BURN

Just when you thought the season was over and we could all go back to our normal lives not having to care about the most niche sport thats ever existed...GRAVEL BURN in South Africa debuts. It's extremely dialed and activated, probably because its put on by the same people who do Cape Epic (an MTB race I'm forced to care about because it is gravel-adjacent). Call it the Matt Beers effect!!! South Africa! Springboks! Toyota!Anyway, young cyclist girls are all wanting DJ decks to compliment their on-the-bike skills. Call that the Alexis Skarda effect!Before we get to any of that though we go through the On The Attack Life Time videos and some last bit of Big Sugar housekeeping til I remember something funny LDC and Deb said/did. I made some reels. Did you see them? I'll get back to making memes.There was some interesting Midsouth news (I'll still find a way to fuck up their race). Chris Froome was/is on that team.DFL Culture - here to stay or downright offensive???When editing the sound for this episode, I accidentally activated the software's AI singularity and it went ahead and summarized this episode and this is what it said:The episode touches on the dynamic and sometimes chaotic state of content around races like 'Big Sugar' and Grazel Burn, delving into the complexities of race organization, team compositions, and the broader cultural aspects of the competitive and social sides of gravel racing. Speculations and commentary span from race logistics, fan engagement, marketing strategies, and potential industry changes. The hosts also ponder on the future of podium celebrations, cultural shifts in the sport, and the possible integration of new race formats.It called the race GraZel Burn.
