Welcome back to the Cyclotus Podcast, everybody. It is Tuesday, February 1st. We just wrapped up a pretty spectacular weekend of racing in Arkansas. The Cyclocross World Championships have finished up.

We're going to be talking about that today, lots of other things, and because of Cross Worlds,

we've got a slightly different crew for you today.

Let's introduce the, maybe a new voice.

I think, Mike, you've been on the, you've been on the pod before, haven't you?

Uh, I don't know. I think this may be my first time this may be Mike's first time on the

podcast this is Mike Better he's our social media editor he was on the ground in

Fayetteville Arkansas over the weekend. Plus, Jose Béne.

Jose, you are our resident cyclocross expert.

Welcome back to the pod.

I think that it's been a year.

It's been almost since the, well, since the torto-de tortophrons, really, since people would have heard you, right?

Yeah, that's true. Yeah, that's true. And I should mention just right off the top that

you'll say we'll be back for the tortophrons this year, plus maybe a couple other episodes throughout the year, sprinkled throughout the year. Welcome back, I say. It's good to have you.

Thank you. And of course, just regular old Ronin.

Yep, that's me.

And Abby, how are you, Abby?

Yep, good.

Yep, yeah, yeah, I like the energy for both you too.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah. Yeah? Yeah. We're like over the hump of the day here in Europe so that's that's

my excuse. We've also been here before.
