You've found the podcast where driving matters.

Whether you haul, commute, or cruise, we want you to love what you drive.

From first time buyers to jaded experts, we believe everyone is one great car away from being car obsessed.

I'm Paul. I'm Todd, and this is the everyday driver car debate.

As you can tell, we're still not in the studio.

Currently in the Frankfurt Airport, so there may be airport announcements and weird things happening in the background.

We apologize in advance, but we wanted to podcast with you guys again, because we are just about to fly back to the U.S. after being in Europe for nearly a week after years of not being here at all.

We've had quite a week.

It's been here.

We're feeling it yesterday, because we've had even more stuff go on after we departed from the group.

Everybody flew home successfully, and we stayed a couple of days to do some more shooting.

We ended up going mountain biking with Ron around the ring. It was very unexpected, but it turned out to be very cool.

Seeing a lot of these corners, and of course, feeling the elevation on the bikes, I feel like studying them from where the elevation was next to the track,

made me see that elevation and understand what's going on with the car.

Completely. Well, Ron runs RSR Racing. Ron Simon's racing. So Ron took us, and I'm so glad he did, because I've actually seen this on the map before.

It's a labeled mountain bike trail that winds around next to the track, ducks under it, comes back to the other side.

So it's crazy to actually get to mountain bike around the ring, but I figured we could just take off and find it ourselves.

I'm really glad we had Ron with us, because it was really confusing to always find the trail.

But then yes, it was murderous to discover the elevation changes.

We went to the carousel, which was unexpected, and a lot of up, of course, Ho Asta is the tallest point on the track.

On the track, it's a mountain, and we rode pretty much to the top of it, and so on was to turn.

And yeah, the carousel was great to see from a different perspective, and knowing what's going on with the car, what you're feeling.
