In our final podcast of 2013, we return to the round-table with listeners Chris Jones, Billy McDonald, and Greg Miller. With topics ranging from para-cycling, nutrition, periodization and the top news headlines of 2013, you won't want to miss out! 

Also on the podcast, we bid a sad farewell to local MTB legend Scott Scudamore, who suffered a severe spinal cord injury in September. "Scud" to pretty everyone who knew him, was one of the nicest people I've ever met and embodied the XTerra Spirit Award he so often handed out at races. In honor, we've featured Roger Cline's tribute song Mekong.  

Special thanks to our 2013 sponsors including, Rudy Project, Honey Stinger, and Stan's No Tubes.

Special Thanks to Damian at the Semi-pro cyclist for the inspiration to finally revisit this topic.
