Hey all, Jonathan here back with a special episode of the Mountain Bike Podcast presented by Worldwide

Cyclery.

Remember really quick, you can go to mtb podcast

com to the store and get all your bike parts at worldwide

cyclery that way but we're here with a special episode and this one is a sit-down

interview with a person that you probably have heard of or maybe if you haven't I'm

sure you've heard of his events. It's with Todd Stadau of Epic Rides. So Epic Rides, if you don't know, it's like

the Whiskey Off Road, Grand Junction Off Road, Carson City Off Road,

24 hours in old Pueblo, all the different events they put on.

It's the only race series that I see, at least domestically here in the US that's genuinely growing rapidly and getting this huge amount of buzz and involvement and everything else.

And there seems to be kind of like a common theme and we talk about this in an interview but a common theme of

racing numbers not being as impressive as they once were however his series

completely contradicts that so I sat down with Todd to figure out how he came up with epic rides and what he or how he

operates the whole thing to try to figure out what's unique about it because it's

working whatever it is. If you haven't heard of his events you totally should but we'll just

let the interview speak for all of that. So tune into this interview, enjoy it, and

then thereafter actually later on this week we have a special episode coming out that's kind of about

this maybe some new race announcement that's coming up with that anyways stay

tuned it's going to be interesting stuff enjoy this interview with Todd, brilliant guy, Mountain Biker to the core.

Todd Sadow, do you want to introduce yourself a little bit to these folks that are listening to this podcast right now?

My name is Todd Sat. I am the CEO of

Epic Rides and also the janitor from time to time.
