We catch up on life as a race mechanic, from a tightly run USA Cycling mountain bike camp in Bentonville to the long, chaotic days of the Redlands stage race. Along the way, we get into suspension basics, feed zone survival, and why local racing only stays alive if we actually show up. • how USA Cycling camp works behind the scenes • what mechanics do all day to keep athletes rolling • suspension setup mistakes that kill traction • tire pressure habits and why many riders go too high • how a stage race support crew operates at Redlands • feed zone and tech zone realities at race speed • how day rates and event contracts work for staff • why pro team service course organization is so intense • OKXC schedule updates and what races are coming • Maverick Crit practice night recap and race etiquette • Tornado Alley Race Series dates and how to help keep it going McMurtry this weekend, April 25th, come out, bring your kids.
