Jenaya Francis, Edmonton, Alberta born and racing with Winspace OrangeSeal, is a fantastic talent with big ideas for cycling and just how impactful we can make it in a young athlete's life.

But instead of initially blaming Cycling Canada management for not doing enough, or supporting young riders, or gathering enough funding, let's instead focus on getting more sponsors for funding, being grateful we can even race and participate in European events, and understand that so many people are doing everything they can for young riders. It's easy to blame the surface problem, but we need to think deeper, push farther, and engage more with our communities.

We chat about that and more on the show. Talking her atypical growth in the sport, as well as the HUGE difference and excitement cycling could have in North American if we could just get Tim Horton's on board!

You, me, Carson, and Cycling Canada, all need to know what our end goals are. Without knowing that, we have no direction on which to grow, develop, and thrive.

Carson Miles is one of the coolest guys in cycling right now. With big, bold ideas, he's not afraid to tell it like it is, nor state his opinion. We chat about Cycling Canada, the work they have done and haven't done for young riders, what the future holds for cycling in North America, and more. Plus we find out what it's like to have the craziest training partners in the world!

When we purchase products, we rarely, if ever, wish for poor quality. Beyond that, we hope for good service, and a reason to come back. Mike Buenting provides that in spades with Rudy Project.

For 40 years, Rudy Project has developed some of the best helmets, eyewear and more. Recently known for their radical Wingdream TT helmet, Rudy Project is more than just a brand for those that know Mike Buenting. Mike, is the face of Rudy Project, the reason we come back. But it extends beyond just service. Developing relationships with athletes, teams, and peers creates lasting impacts on the sporting community, large and small.

Mike and I chat about the importance of creating those relationships, developing the sport from the branding side, and how athletes can make themselves more attractive to potential partners.
