All right, folks, welcome to Rest Day, a special Wednesday edition here broadcasting from Taos, New Mexico.

I'm your host, Dylan Bowman, joined by the

King of Transvauconia, the 2026 champion new course record holder broadcasting from his home in Vermont.

David Sinclair, welcome to the program, bro. Thanks for having me on, doing it. I'm going to be here.

Yeah, I can't wait to hear all about the race, just sort of setting things up for the audience here before we dive in.

As you guys have all been able to tell probably, and as I've mentioned now, many times,

we're having a lot of fun with this live streaming rest day format.

We figure we may as well extend it in different places where we can and where it feels right.

And we're grateful to have

David Sinclair on to talk all about his big victory at Transvaucania. In the back half of today's show,

Zach Marion is going to join. He is, I believe his title is something like the director of

live streaming operations or something like that at Mountain Outpost. He has really been a leader in

that domain. So the back half of the episode will be occupied by a great conversation just about

the state of live streaming in the sport, especially looking at the success of Kocodona,

the lack of a live stream at Canyons, the fact that Zagama was behind a paywall. There's a lot

to talk about there. So that's the way that Zagama was behind a paywall. There's a lot to talk about

there. So that's the way the show is going to be organized here today. But we're starting,

as I said, with the man of the moment, David Sinclair. Dude, first of all, congratulations, you absolute

gee, one of the greatest performances of the season so far. And I think you've mentioned in a

couple of places. It's one of the best performances of the season so far. And I think you've mentioned in a couple of places.

It's one of the best performances of your career,

which is saying something.
