The Rift, Foco Fondo, Leadville Stage Race and forgetting your shoes (not us)

The Holy Spirit of Gravel digs in on two weeks of gravel and whatever the Leadville stage race is because we were getting sick of the Tour (hommes) (we love it but). Gravel Earth Series seems to be winning the aesthetics war currently with their women’s Rift coverage… I think the men’s was in there somewhere. Foco Fondo had a dialed, grassroots-coded livestream where we could see some normie style aid station usage. Leadville stage race was stacked but does Holy Spirit even care about MTB? Will Daxton Mock/Lance Haidet’s family break the Gravel Database Project servers because they checked their profiles too many times? (We are too cheap to have a good server). Are vibes-based race calendars the new high carb movement? Why does Holy Spirit wear the same shirt in every video she’s soft doxxed herself in? What actually happened in the Lithuanian forests all those years ago? Do Lithuanian gravel races have 10k prize purses or is that just middle of nowhere North Dakota?These questions and many more get answered on today’s pod. Oh yeah, should we continue to do political pundit impressions? Here’s that awesome Kate Courtney video I was talking about: https://youtu.be/xFJsR8bG6es?si=fg2nWUOq0BpkCm19
