Summary
I got to meet up with Bailey Newbrey in his new-ish shop, Sincere Cycles, on a recent trip to Santa Fe, NM. Bailey made a some noise in 2018 when he finished the Tour Divide in second place overall on a Singlespeed! We chat a lot about his 2016 and 2018 Tour Divide runs and his reasoning behind running SS. He also makes some bold predictions towards the end of the podcast that is worth sticking around for.
Sincere Cycles calls an old bar home which gives it a cool vibe right off the bat. His workstation is behind the bar where he serves up some of the finest bike knowledge and experience that money CAN'T buy. We talk about how is business fits into the Santa Fe scene and what some of this plans are for the shop. Of course, we talk covid-craziness as well.
It was a true pleasure getting to meet up with Bailey in his shop. It gave me a chance to see him interact with customers and use his experiences to inform suggestions. He clearly has a passion for what he is doing which is made easier by creating a bike shop that is tailored to his interest and expertise. I love it when people take their passions and figure out a way to make them a "job" too. I wish him all the success both in his new shop and in upcoming races.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Bikes for Death podcast. My name is Patrick and I am your host. And today's |
| 0:07.6 | guest is Bailey Newberry. He is most well known for his 2018 Tour-Divide run where he took second |
| 0:15.9 | overall on a single speed and obviously took first in the single speed category. That was the year that |
| 0:22.5 | Lewis Sador won. And so it was fun to talk about him chasing potentially first place overall |
| 0:30.0 | on a single speed. And we talked about a lot more than just that. But that's certainly what he's |
| 0:35.8 | most well known for. And recently, he, |
| 0:39.5 | well, I say recently, about a year ago, he opened up a new bike shop in Santa Fe, New Mexico, |
| 0:44.5 | called Sincere Cycles. And that's where I caught up with him. I got a chance to hang out in his |
| 0:49.9 | shop during business hours. And every once in a while we were interrupted by a customer that would |
| 0:55.6 | walk in. But it was actually no problem at all. It was pretty cool to get to see him interact with people |
| 1:00.9 | and just get a good vibe for the shop and for him. Really excited that I got a chance to catch up to |
| 1:07.0 | him. I heard a lot of good things from different people before I went and met with him, |
| 1:11.3 | and it didn't disappoint. Really cool guys, sincere guy, you could say, and a really amazing |
