SEASON 4, EPISODE 10
TIM BRUCE

RELEASED AUGUST 8, 2023

SEASON 4 / EPISODE 10: I met Tim Bruce while having post-race beers after ⁠Rasputitsa⁠ in ⁠East Burke, VT⁠ in April 2023. We were all chatting about the day and sharing our experiences, and then Tim started to share some bike stories from years past. I had him hit pause and asked if he'd like to share them on the mic (which didn't take much convincing) so we reconnected a couple months later to record this episode. There are the standard memories from first bikes and that excitement from the early years, and a great recounting of his recent ride at the ⁠Unbound Gravel⁠ in Kansas. But what really makes this episode special is the story he shares about one particular year at the ⁠Leadville 100⁠, and riding with his dad in an attempt to finally get him his ⁠sub-12hr buckle⁠ and become an "official finisher" after many years attempting this monumental feat.
