[upbeat rock music] What are you doing? What are you doing? [laughs] What are you doing?
0:18
What are you doing? What are you doing? You are so prepared. What are you doing? What are you doing? Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. What are you doing? Tony had on the wrong headset.
0:24
[laughs] I'm like, wait a minute, why are there four headsets? Oh. Yeah. [clears throat] 'Cause sometimes we have guests up in here. Mine was hidden underneath Handsome Bob. And you had- Oh, what a... Hey, everybody.
0:35
[laughs] Tony's got his headphones on now, so. Hey. It's, you know, Full Spectrum Cycling, the unrehearsed version. [laughs] Just like every other version. Just like all of them. Uh, show 113 for criminently. Wow.
0:50
I think it's May or something. Something like that. It's nice out finally. Oh my gosh. Absolutely. Oh my gosh. I'm overdressed again.
0:57
JK and I have had a couple of good roll-around-the-neighborhood early weekdays here recently. Nice. Might've been, uh... I don't know. Oh, well, Monday was more of a traditional roll-around day, but Tuesday
1:13
we rolled down to Indeed Brewing. It's pretty nice, isn't it? Indeed. Yeah, it's Minneapolis and Milwaukee now. Yeah, yeah. You know, it's not just Minneapolis anymore. Yeah, Minne-, yeah.
1:22
Thank you, Indeed, for coming down here. In- indeed. [laughs] They brew pretty damn good beer, too. [laughs] They do.
1:28
Uh, there was a very, very, very, very small amount of people when we went in there, but our purpose for going there was to investigate, 'cause I have not been in there yet.
1:38
In- And it's, it's much larger in the back than it looks like from the front. [laughs] Yeah. [laughs] I, I, I was waiting- Yes, it does. It opens up... in line for the bathroom.
1:44
That's my only step on premises, and that was two- Oh, no, it gets pretty big when you get to the back there... like two years ago. Yeah, so on, on June 9th, 2021, Wednesday,
1:57
normally our day to do show recordings, Wednesday- Wednesday... is a, it's called the We Can Indeed Do It, some sort of some such. Indeed- Instead We Can. Indeed We Can. That's it.
2:10
I'm getting mixed up with the We Are All In Wisconsin thing. Indeed We Can Do It, which is, uh, all nonprofits that have some sort of Wednesday function at Indeed, and Wisconsin Bike Fed is one of them. Nice.
2:28
And Jake from Wisconsin Bike Fed said, "Would you like to get a group of people going from your neighborhood and ride down there?" I'm like, "Yes." That'd be nice. However, [laughs]
2:40
it is show night, so we're gonna have to go ahead and take the rig down to Indeed and do a live- Live-... on the premises- Podcast... podcast. And thank God we have an electric bike for Tony to carry the gear.
2:54
That's right. [laughs] I'd actually could easily carry that gear on a non-electrified version of that cargo bike. Yeah, you probably could. It's just- But it's gonna be way more fun this way...
3:03
goes, it just goes in a big case. Otherwise, we could- Yeah... we could throw a trailer on the back of your bike. No. It's, uh- We could do... We, we have many ways to carry gear.
3:09
You've already said I get to ride the cargo bike. No. You can't go back on that now. [laughs] But, but, but, but, but- Nope... but- Nope... but- Nope... but. Yeah, so they have a lot of beers there.
3:20
Uh, P- we saw Patrick, the brewmaster. He's seems like a pretty solid dude. Yeah, yep. Uh, I think we can make it work in there if as long as there's not more than 700, 800 people. [laughs] That's not gonna happen.
3:35
Nah, probably not, but they're, they're kind of opening, everyone's opening up now. That's right. That's kinda what's happening around here. I don't know what's happening in your neck of the woods. Brewing points.
3:42
You've probably been open for, you know, the last year and a half if you're in certain areas, but- [laughs]... 'r- 'round here, 'round here you're still, you're still wearing masks, maskses, ses. Yeah. Yeah. That's cool.
3:54
Eh, it ain't gonna change, at least in my brain, for a while. Nope, I'm gonna wear them. I don't know. I mean- It's part of my fashion now. Right? But make it fashion. Cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha. Make a statement.
4:05
Cha. We're not gonna go to, uh, Thirsty Fox and- Get shot... get all Myrtleized with our masks on, are we? [laughs] No. We will, we'll believe you're trying to rob us, and we will reply accordingly. [laughs] Yeah. Whoa.
4:18
[laughs] We're gonna, we're gonna accept this as a- Yes... sort of an opportunity to shoot you up in your shit. I'm gonna say, "Hard pass," and go somewhere else and spend my damn dollars. Yeah.
4:27
It's just right on the damn Oak Leaf. It's just so close- I mean, yeah, right? It is. [laughs] Yeah, so annoying... I understand where it is, but fuck that. Yep, bad burn. Bad, bad, bad stroke.
4:36
Well, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not done with all of our, mm, other side of the aisle friends, because I think what's happened over these past few years has been too much one side or the other and not too much of the middle ground.
4:51
When did this turn into a politics show? [laughs] Every week. Well, wait. Excuse me. Sven on politics. Sven. I like, this is a new- Sven on politics... the new segment. Yeah. Oh, for craps sake.
5:04
So I drove 1,200 miles over f- f- f- three days over the weekend. And you probably met Chewy and got drunk at one point too. That was sort of the end of the line almost. Yeah, went up to Minneapolis. Minneapolis.
5:19
Picked up a thing up there. Made it as far as Winona, Minnesota- Home... which is where Sugarloaf is. I don't know if you've ever been there. It's this big, it almost looks like a volcano cone. Huh.
5:31
But they had quarried out around the thing to make all the buildings in Winona in the 1800s, and there's just this monolith left. Neat. Huh. It's like 500 feet above the town. Pretty cool. Cool. Home of, uh- But, uh-...
5:42
Winona Horowitz, AKA Winona Ryder, I do believe. She's from Winona? I think so. Get outta here. Or named after Winona. Well, somebody's from Winona, but I'm not sure it's her, but- All right... it could be. Exactly.
5:53
I did, I did not do my- I didn't say it as, as confidently as- You got a computer in front of you, let's find out fucking who it is I know, I was trying, I was trying to actually- If she doesn't love Winona, I do...
6:01
not do the... Well, I just watched something- I for one do... yeah, I just watched- Yeah, I do... I just watched today of, uh, a reenactment of the Al Haig gaffe- [sighs]... of, "I am in control here at the White House."
6:12
It's like, no, dude, s- order of succession isn't to you, so. But he said it confidently until they were like, "You're wrong." [laughs] But he said it very damn confidently.
6:21
[laughs] I'm pretty sure that saying something and having it being believed is mostly in the delivery. Oh, hell yeah. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Mostly. So hear me now, believe me later. They mostly only come out at night.
6:33
So Winona. Mostly. That's only 30 minutes from La Crosse, but that's as far as I made it because I think it's mayfly season. Uh-oh. And I thought it was raining, but it was not raining. Hmm.
6:44
And my windscreen of my vehicle, I think they call that windscreen in England maybe. They do. They do. It's the windshield here. Yes. It was, I could not see through the thing, it was so plastered with- Bugs...
6:56
bug bodies. Wow. Yeah, mayfly season. Yikes. Yeah, so they only last for a day as far as I know. Yep. Yep, you're right. But the one day, I thought, seriously, I just hear this [imitates fluttering]
7:06
just like, it sounded like rain. And I'm like, "It's raining out." I'm like, "That's cool." No, it's bugging out. Wow. And I bugged out, 'cause boy, those things get kinda stinky pretty quickly. Yeah, they do.
7:17
So anyway, stayed in Winona, and then, uh, next day went to La Crosse. Got my- It is a road dog... got my first load of, of stuff from the daughter's house, who has graduumatated from the- Yay...
7:26
University of Wisconsin La Crosse. Yeah, he's sitting there, graduation. Anybody needs a stage management major in their neck of the woods, or a photography minor or, uh, I forgot the other minor.
7:39
She got other, she got other skills though. You're gonna wanna go ahead and send Sven a note to, to, uh... Hey, E, greg@fullspectrumcycling.com. Ooh.
7:50
We now have a, we now have our own website called Full Spectrum Cycling- Craig? Who's Craig?... dot com. You clowns can have your own emails if you want them. Yeah, I might have my own. Ah.
7:58
It'll be like- Why the fuck not?... tdi@- Yeah... fullspectrumcycling.com. Yeah. Do I get in trouble with, uh, putting stuff on the certain servers? Oh, wait, we, we're off politics. Yeah. What servers? Servers.
8:10
Parlor's back on Apple, uh, Apple Music, Tunes, iAppleville. Is that a date site? Appleville. Yeah. If you wanna be on Parlor, go ahead to, uh, head over to Apple and get that on your phone. Wow.
8:22
Anyway, so yep, that was- [laughs] So that was the first- Is that a dating site?... trip. First trip, so Friday, La Crosse. Come home to Milwaukee, drop all that stuff off, which was way more than I thought.
8:34
I thought I'm picking up a thing and a deal and a whatnot. It was like a lot more stuff- Yeah... to fill the van. Uh, hour later, turn around, go back to Decorah, which is four hours the other way again.
8:44
Friday though, Friday, go to Decorah. Nice, nice little semi, semi-happy Friday night, but Saturday, got a whole day in Decorah. Awesome. [laughs] Decorah Time Trials.
8:59
Uh, we did a show in the captain's, uh, kitchen, which is on Full Spectrum Cycling now, Chewy's Salon Chair Number Four. Nice. The aftermath of Decorah Time Trials. [laughs] Which was a bitching good event.
9:11
It was sort of old school, and it was the reunion of the Time Trials, which has been... Y- listen to the show, it's been going on since 1990, but it's been some hiatus years 'cause of various reasons.
9:24
But, uh, I think there was 15 racers, and it was kickass. Nice. Lunds was with you? Oh, I have Lunds stories, but I don't think we can talk about them on the air. [laughs] Okay. Or just have to have it be an audience.
9:36
Okay, so you know, you know like how in Milwaukee you can be a completely insanely drunken fool walking down the street and they wanna arrest you? Yeah. Yeah. That doesn't happen in Decorah. Uh-oh. Well- [laughs]...
9:48
he somehow slipped through that booby trap, but he was, boy, glad they didn't pass him is all I'm saying. Mm. Yeah, they don't have a lot of sense of humor for public drunking, drunkingness there. Well, then.
10:05
Perhaps you sh- maybe if you lived there, you'd get a pass, but I'm not sure. Yikes. So our buddy, our buddy Captain lives one house, then Moffitt lives right in the same block. Oh, boy. That was great.
10:19
And then Spinner, sight unseen, bought a house in Decorah- Oh... next to Olvera, so. Oh, boy. We've been told when we buy our houses in Decorah, we have to be within a 10- [laughs]... within a 10-block little stretch.
10:33
Commune. Yeah, it's a commune. Nice. Well, if you've never been to Decorah, you need to go there and understand why there will be a mountain bike commune there. Yeah. Well, there already is, we're just not members yet.
10:44
[laughs] There you go. We're kinda members by proxy, I guess. But, uh- All right... yeah, super event.
10:49
And then, uh, and then Sunday I went back to La Crosse on the way home and picked up another load and brought that home, and- Yikes. Whoa... now daughter has taken over the dining room and living room with stuff.
11:00
There you go. She'll get around to it in- [laughs] I'm like-... four or five years... well, we have a garage where the mice live. You can put your stuff out there. [laughs] Yeah, good stuff.
11:09
Oh, that was like my- Good stuff... that was like my move in. Uh, is she going on vacation like immediately? 'Cause that was what mine was. Oh, no, she went to, she went to New York today. Oh, no shit.
11:18
Yeah, with her, her friend's getting an interview there for a job, and two other girls went with them. [laughs] And they're like, "Yeah, let's just go to New York." Oh, shit. No, I was just joking. Kids these days, man.
11:27
I was just joking, 'cause that ended up, when I moved in, not all the puzzle pieces were gone yet, so I just had to put all my shit in the living room. Oh, I remember those days.
11:37
Like an absolute warehouse, and it, I was like, "I, I'm going to the East Coast, uh, tomorrow. I mean, if you would've got your shit outta here, uh, it would prob- you know." Cool, but no, you-
11:48
But I felt bad, 'cause in a way. I- I'm just like, "Hey, here's all my shit. I'll see you in two weeks." [laughs] Pretty, pretty sure it's all been made up for in the last 80 however long it's been.
11:58
You guys 10 years yet? Mm. Uh, nope, nope, nope. [laughs] 10 years from the day I turned my back on Mike and had him talk to Kim. [laughs] [laughs] I'm gonna go home. Yeah.
12:10
You guys, hey, you're, you're, you're- You guys, you know, don't- You're you, and y- you're you, and you're, you're you, and yeah. Don't... Yeah. Greg, you left me alone with them. [laughs] It's all your fault.
12:25
I am the matchmaker. [laughs] That's what they say. So when you guys- [laughs] So when you guys walked in today, we were listening to the new, well, new-ish, Couch Flambeau. Yes. What a freaking great band.
12:38
So I, so I had no idea that our neighbor, Rusty, the guitar shop right next door, well- Two, two doors down... two doors down- Just saw him and then poof... would be, uh, Rock House Guitars. Awesome place. Yeah.
12:48
I had no idea he was on this album as the drummer. I- They recorded it in 2009 apparently, so for somehow it's been languishing a little bit. Wow. But it's a, it's a, it's an EP. It's a 12-inch 45 RPM thing.
13:04
It's gonna be good. Kicks ass. It is really good. Eight songs, eight songs, 18 minutes. Yep, which should be. Pr- pretty much should tell you what kind of music it is. You play it at 33, it'll sound like a sleep tune.
13:12
Well, and it'll also go a little... Boom, boom. Oh, we should try that. Let's try that out. [laughs] And we'll report back next week. [laughs] Yeah, we probably have a new thing.
13:22
[laughs] How to make Eddie think, "What does this sound like while sleeping?" I, if you're into the, if you're into the punk, 'cause the, uh, Couch Flambeau actually started in '81- Yep...
13:28
which is the year I graduated from high school. I remember listening to them in high school. It was so great. Yeah, yeah. They played many a local show.
13:36
Now, Rusty wasn't in them back then, but he's, I think he's been with them since '98 as a, kind of a session drummer kinda guy. Nice. I always thought he was a guitar player. Owns a guitar shop. You're a drummer?
13:47
Get the fuck outta here. Yeah. I mean- [laughs]... you just, you just learn those things. Yeah, he goes, "No, there's way more room for work when you're a bass player or a drummer." Oh, there you go.
13:56
Every song is a bass solo. Right? Yeah. [laughs] You can pretty much jump into any band if you're a halfway decent one of those two things. Otherwise- Yeah...
14:02
you got a bunch of egos going with the guitar and the singing. That's a good point, good point. Right? Yeah. Yes. Ask Bill Wyman, ask Charlie Watts, tell them what's up. Yeah. How you doing? Yeah, yeah.
14:10
Got that band called what? Strolling Bones? What? I don't even know who those guys are. So got, got some links there for the old Couch Flambeau business. I'd go ahead and give it a listen on Bandcamp or- Freaking good...
14:21
freaking- It's pretty damn good... if you like your punk and you like your rock, you're gonna like your punk rock this way. Yeah, this, this is good punk rock. Or metal, either way. However you wanna go about it.
14:29
All of metal. It's good. [laughs] So I haven't tell you how I'm getting banned off of Facebook posts or ridiculous ads? You've been Zucked. You have, you have, yeah. [laughs] You've been Zucked. Yeah, you Zuck, dude.
14:41
No, I'm not getting Zucked.
14:42
They're banning me because they keep posting these ridiculous electric bikes, and I comment, like, like, the latest one was the most powerful electric bike ever made, and I'm like, "It's got a top speed of 40 miles an hour.
14:55
Like, that's not the fastest. I'm like, that's ridiculous. You can't adjust the seat. You know, do you have a model riding it without a helmet?" Is that the one where the seat is so low you can't- Right, right...
15:03
you're dragging your balls on the ground- Yeah... kinda low? Yeah. Yeah. And it's like you can't... So both, two of these websites that have these flat-seated bikes that have no adjustments but have gears, 'cause...
15:15
And through the entire video of the bike, they never pedal. Why would you- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But why would you have gears when you don't need them? You know?
15:24
I mean, then take them off, but they're, they're, you know... It's all marketing. So you've been banned from- So I keep getting banned... banned from them and? They block all my comments. What about Babymaker?
15:33
Are you banned from them? Uh, yeah. [laughs] As a matter, as a matter of fact, I am also blocked from the Babymaker people.
15:39
Well, on, on the good side of electric vehicles that are not probably actually bicycles, uh, Luna's got back in their Surly Ron or whatever they call the thing. Oh, that Insanity?
15:49
4,100 bucks, and it goes 40 miles an hour, and it's got suspension from here to next week. Yep. And you're like, "Wow, I wish I, I wish crypto didn't crash, like, 35% today." Right. "'Cause I would've been tempted to
16:03
just go ahead and send them some-" But the-... Ethereum or some such. But what about the motorcycle? The Saunders? The Saunders. Eh. It's 5 grand. I know, I know, but the- 80 miles an hour...
16:14
but, but this is more like a motocross bike. Right. That's more like a city bike. I suppose. I am falling down a rabbit hole of Couch Flambeau. Mm. Couch Flambeau hole. [clears throat] So here's another crypto thing.
16:27
I did a power slide and the Taco Stand CD is available for 20.45, 49 rather. Ooh, nice. I just love those words all together. They all come together and make you push the buy button. It just makes me so happy.
16:37
[laughs] Buy button. If it were not CD, if it were LP- Mm... I would be much more into the button pushing. Button pushing. So I, I- This is all your doing, Greg.
16:48
[laughs] So this is, this is a, a long way around to get to the point that State Bicycle actually takes crypto for payment for bikes, at least as a dealer.
16:57
I'm pretty sure that they must take it for consumers as well, but I bought five clunkers today from- Really?... from State. These are
17:07
super simple single speed, coaster brake, you know, 400 and, oh, whatever they are, $420.99, the 420- 420... you know, whatever, retail price. And I came up with a race series we're gonna do with these things. Oh, okay.
17:23
Okay. I could've paid for them in crypto, but not at 35% down on the market today, so. Are they, uh, 26s? What are they? 27.5. Nice. And they have WTB Vigilantes on them- Nice...
17:34
which is not a bad tire at a $420 price point. Right. Uh, just they're, I, and so- Aluminium? When, when I was in... No. Hell no. Good.
17:44
State, uh, well, they do make aluminium bikes on the higher end of stuff probably, but, no, they're mostly a steel bike company. Excellent. And when I was in Decorah, Moffitt had the fresh and easy version of it.
17:57
It's the same thing with a fancy- Oh, I like that bike... with a fancy paint job. Yeah. And then JK has noted that they stole his idea for the Steal My Face... uh, paint job for the other one.
18:07
But those are only available at retail, even the dealers. Mm. So, and they're like 569, but they're pretty kickass.
18:13
Anyway, I rode that bike around because I didn't take one to Decorah on account I had to put shit in the van for- Right... the daughter and blah, blah, blah. Right. Very cool. And Chewy got DFL- Of course...
18:26
on his, on the race course, which was a very, I- I'd call it steep.
18:32
I know Zeigel said it wasn't that steep, but it was, it's basically a 1.1 mile course that goes up 250 feet, mucks about on the top a little bit, and then comes back down. That sounds brutal.
18:43
And they, they ran it clockwise and then counterclockwise and at the times, boom, boom, boom. You mean anti-clockwise? Anti-clockwise. So you've never been to Decorah.
18:53
So you could, I- if you had- I've never been to Decorah... ever been there and you rode with guys, I could say you would guess the guy that won hands down. Yeah. There's a beast up there, isn't there?
19:02
He's- Well, there's a lot of beasts. Yeah. Oh, O'Gara won, but a gunner who's my age, ancient, was second by not very far. Wow. And it basically- How old's O'Gara, though? He's 40s?
19:13
O'Gara, yeah, he's gotta be in his early 40s I would think. Yeah. He's the wrestling coach at Luther, so... [laughs] He's a freaking machine. But he's only like four foot two or something. Oh. He's really small.
19:22
It's 'cause he's a wrestler. But he's also four foot two wide. Wide, yeah. [laughs] He's, and it's all muscle. Um, yeah, it was great. And, uh, there was a, a, a young lady that was f- fifth out of the bunch. Super fast.
19:36
Nice. Yeah, very good. And, uh, it was a, it was a all around a good time. But, uh- Very cool... so the idea, the clunker thing is, first of all, clunkers are cool. Everybody knows that. Yeah. And these are inexpensive.
19:50
So our race series is gonna involve five of these things. So we need five teams. Team Tony, Team Milwaukee By Bike, Team Dream Bikes. I don't know. We're gonna come up with some stuff.
20:03
And the first one will be whenever we get bikes. Probably do these Thursday nights or something, I think. And the first one will be at the new place. Oh, we got a door, by the way. Yay. Well, we don't have a door yet.
20:16
[laughs] But we have a hole for a door, which is very, very important. Um, so the first one's gonna be short.
20:21
It's gonna be parking lot, parking lot, parking lot, parking lot, parking lot, gathering place, filling station, or something like that. So that will be the...
20:30
And the second one is gonna range a little bit further, maybe a lap around a parking lot, down to Black Husky and Company, and around the neighborhood a little bit. Yeah.
20:39
And the third one's gonna be like, well, we're gonna go maybe a little further. And the, the fifth one's gonna be basically a citywide- Bust out... thing.
20:47
But there's only the five teams, but then there's the ancillary people who support the teams. It's gonna be like a traveling road show sort of a situation. That's pretty intense. It's, at least the vision is good.
20:59
Let's see if the execution- Mm... is any good. Yeah. Yeah. I can't believe we haven't- So... gotten to the top of the hill yet. We're in Decorah. We're at the- Well, we're fucking climbing...
21:07
we're at the top of Twin Springs right now. [bell ringing] Twin Springs. By the way, there actually are two s- two springs there still. So then, but are they twins? I don't know that they're actual twins.
21:20
They're sort of like lopsided maybe a little bit kind of twins. Conjoined. But it's where, in the past, in the olden times, the, uh, fish hatchery was where they raised trout. Oh?
21:30
Now they have a new fish hatchery, which is way more efficient and makes way more trout. Mm-hmm. But this was basically at the very beginning of where the springs come out.
21:38
There's these old, you know, hand wheels and things that move many things that don't move anymore. Nice. But there were- Cool. It's pretty cool. Oh, hey, it's top of the hill. What do we got here?
21:51
We just made it to the top of the hill. I'm gonna need a, uh... Ooh, this looks like it might hurt a little. Oh, look at that thing. Yeah. Anti... Oh, it's a WMSC, uh, coffee maker. Yeah. Is that a coffee maker?
22:03
No, it's a bottle opener. Yeah. Same thing. Coffee maker. [laughs] Same alphabet. I don't have any of their coffee. Uh- I've, I've heard it's not bad. I- It's fantastic... I found- I have a lot of it...
22:12
well, I finally found where you can get it. Anodyne. Anodyne. Well, I wouldn't even go to an Anodyne anymore. Brewed. Uh, Brewed? Brewed on Brady. Oh. That's where I get it. I think Sindec's on O- uh, Downer may as well.
22:27
Thought I saw it, but I just had bought a whole shitload of coffee, so I didn't really need any. [laughs] So this week's beer is, uh, Lagunitas StereoHopic Volume 1. Oh.
22:38
Apparently they're releasing these in pairs, and this is the volume one of the volume two knot. Ah. Uh, you'll experience how Nelson's catty notes of pear, honeysuckle, and... What is lychee?
22:51
I don't even know what that is. Lychee. Like, lychee. Lychee. Aligned with Mosaic's dank bits of dark... Why does everybody say dank? Mm. That makes you feel like you're smoking dope, doesn't it? I know.
23:00
This is really fucking taste- Dank bits of dark fruits-... tantalizing... berries, and pine. Full frequency 4D flavor in a 3D world. This is pretty outstanding. [laughs] My brain is getting blasted the fuck up.
23:10
Yeah, no, just- Now kick off-... stop, stop reading. Now kick off your kicks, kick back, crack one open, tune out, turn on, and enjoy the StereoHopic sound. [exhales] Volume one. Yeah. 7.2% ABV and- Mm-hmm... 65 IBU.
23:27
Yeah, this is like the- Um, it's pretty good. Yeah. It is tasty. It's a lot of good. I hate how they're owned by Budweiser. I know. But they really make good beer. They do. [laughs] Fuck you, Tony.
23:38
And the, and the good NE. Actually, that NE is outstanding. Yeah. I mean, I'd put that up against- That was...
23:45
I noticed that the cycling world is what they claim, I saw a story this week that's claimed that's, that's what's fueling the non-alcoholic quality beers. Is cycling? Cycling.
23:56
Well, athletic, but they specifically noted cycling, and I'm sure it's because of the what's-its-name brewing that was on here that was- You'll recall show number 58, I believe it was. Is that what it was, 58? Yeah.
24:05
I don't know. Where she- It's right behind me, but is it? I'm just guessing Oh, it is behind you. I don't know. Where is it? Show number 58, folks. There we go. Look at that mammory 58.
24:17
That's a terrible beer, but whatever. [laughs] Yeah, what it, what was it called? The Shred. The beer was called Shred. It was- Yeah, it was s- salty and-... a little Type A beer...
24:25
yeah, it was, it was a crap taco This is, this, well, this is a- This is nice... actually good beer. I don't know. She was a nice lady. She was a nice lady. Very nice lady. She just had shitty beer.
24:31
I like how they set up a company meant to be sold. Right. That was awesome. What a great... What a, I wish I was that smart. That's what wealthy people do. I, I w- the only way I'm getting rich is crypto. Right. Me too.
24:41
I got nothing else going for me. Yeah. So, uh, we s- we did the... Oh, here, Handsome Bob. Have we talked about Handsome Bob yet? He's under your brain bucket. Briefly.
24:51
I remember- Hans, our friend Handsome Bob is, he, he's a, still rides BMX bikes to this day, I believe. Yep. Yep. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. All over town here. Bartender at our local watering hole.
25:01
Got his, uh, very, very crusty, tattooed face all up in- [laughs]... our local River West currents. He's b- he's also been permanently banned from the River West 24, just so you know. 'Cause he wouldn't wear a helmet.
25:13
'Cause he wouldn't wear a helmet. Right. Well, they were 20 inches of terror, weren't they? [laughs] I don't think he was on that team, was he? Oh, I don't know. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Corey's team?
25:21
I don't know if they permanently can ban you. What if you just ride? Mm-hmm. I'm not racing. I'm not, I'm not getting any points. I'm not competing, but you can't stop me from riding on a city street. Go fuck yourself.
25:31
Well, right. That's, I mean- You know what I'm saying? But you're not part of the- I don't know if we-... the community... I don't know if that's even available online. I should find it, 'cause Bob's an awesome dude.
25:40
Yeah. Um, and he's very well-represented in the article. Yeah, I only read half of it, 'cause attention span. Because of the b- b- b- [laughs] yep, attention, attention span and just, mm, major back-pattery or something.
25:57
I don't know what's going on anyway. [laughs] Well, no, I was just reading it and I was just like, "Oh, wait." Or just scanning a little bit, and I'm like, I, uh, wait. Oh. Oh, wait. I thought this was now.
26:06
Oh, this was years ago. Oh, okay. Quit breaking your shit. So you guys, do you guys know where Saner, Wisconsin is? Mm-mm. I'm gonna guess it's up towards Minocqua/ sh- I don't know, Lambeau- Vallis County...
26:19
No, it's not that far, I don't think. Okay. It's sort of up there in Lamba country somewhere. Tomahawk? Maybe, yeah. I don't know. Tomahawk. Tomahawk Falls. Yeah. Yeah. We're gonna have to look at it. Tomahawk Falls.
26:28
Tomahawk Springs. But if you had a, if you had a name of your town called Saner, what would you name your race? How about Insaner? [laughs] Insaner. In the membrane. 'Cause where's the race in Saner?
26:39
Well, it's just, it's a 23-mile race. Uh, it's coming up on June 12th. It's a race that takes place [coughs] in the depths of northern Wisconsin ride snowmobile trails.
26:47
Sweet stretches of downhill, an old ski run, logging roads, trails, gravel roads, small stretch of blacktop, and a few other surprises that may dampen an average rider's spirit. Where are we going? But not you.
26:59
We don't need roads. I like this idea. This sounds like a thing. They're, I think they're gonna cap it at- Sounds pretty cool... 40 riders or something. It's not gonna be a big thing.
27:07
It's not gonna be, like, one of those 800-person wars races that just irritates the heck out of you or- Yeah... anything like that. But, uh, I'd check that out June 12th, uh, in Saner, Wisconsin. Oh, that sounds cool.
27:20
In the membraner. [laughs] We'll have more news on, uh, the Klunker series when I get to- Klunker... some sort of... When I figure out when the bikes are actually gonna show up, 'cause- Yeah, right...
27:33
it says early July, but I've... Moffat and, and his buddy Pat and all those guys, and he's like, "I think they might have some of them. They're just sort of kind of, like- Six to eight weeks...
27:44
busy and- He's in a company line. Yeah, six to eight weeks. Should be done in six to eight weeks. I hope to see them next week, but- That'd be cool... we're gonna have a building party, make some bikes. Nice.
27:56
And, uh, yeah. Sounds fun. I dunno. Get Mr. Wrench. So- Yeah... there you have it, folks.
28:02
If you're, uh, one more thing, if you're in River West this weekend, uh, Gathering Place is closing off Vienna again for another beer garden festival. Wait, what? Releasing a new beer, too. My- Do they have taco trucks?
28:15
So- They'll have some sort of food truck. [laughs] And if you need your, if you need your Polaroid SX-70 or 600 fixed- Sorry, next topic... you can stop at Rectus, Rectus Specter right there. [laughs] Easy.
28:25
[laughs] Rectreschtech. Slow walk that pronunciation but it was- Well, there you go. [laughs] I'm just, so I did have my camera redone by them, and they're very nice, very nice.
28:35
I did take it back because I wasn't sure that it was working like it was supposed to, and they redid it again and I'm like, I don't know if I remember these things being better than they were in the old days, but maybe they're just, like,
28:47
not that great or something. I'm not sure. It's easy to fix something if you only make it as good as it was when it was crappy.
28:52
Well, if it was brand newy-ish, if that's what they're telling me, I'm gonna be like, "If I spent that much money back then," 'cause they were not cheap. Right. I'd be like- Oh, I know...
29:01
"What are you trying to sell me here, for Christ's sake?" But, uh, I'm not convinced that we're not- Oh, for crying... quite past the... I'll keep taking it back there till I'm happy with the results. [laughs] Yeah.
29:10
And they're very, they're very nice people, so. I would go ahead and say send it in anyway. Oh. Maybe I just have a, a lemon out of the showroom floor. There you go. Lemon. Not their showroom, but the original showroom.
29:23
Right, right. Annie-hoo-doodle-doodle-doodle. Winona Ryder was from Winona, was... Minnesota. Miss, Misses Showstop? Yeah. Mi- misses- Really? Oh, that's pretty neat. So, okay. That's a fun fact.
29:35
All right, okay, okay, all right. Okay. Okay, all right. Okay, JK. JK, all right. Her godmother was- Well, was her-... Timothy Leary, and I remember that. Ah.
29:42
And she, her family kinda hung with Ginsburg and- Was he the LSD guy?... Philip K. Dick, and... Oh, yeah. Mm-hmm. So was, was, so- Which is the beer I had at Indy... Okay. Okay. You see, it all comes around.
29:50
Okay, okay, okay, okay, wait, wait. Okay. Lavender sunflower ale. So was she Winona when she was born? Y- uh, yes. Bornt? Winona Horowitz. Horowitz. Horowitz. I like Ryder better.
30:02
Sounds more- I'm fine with either one, as long as she looks like Winona Ryder. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. And she's still- Named after Mitch Ryder... and she's still- She's a fantastic actress. I love that...
30:09
Heather's still one of the best movies ever. One of my best movies ever. One of the best movies ever. Matter of fact, I accidentally keep buying it for Molly as her, like, 12th anniversary.
30:17
[laughs] You already have those. 'Cause it was our first date. That was the movie we saw on our first date. And then- Fuck me gently with a-... I bought it... chainsaw... with a chainsaw. [laughs] I love my dead gay son.
30:27
[laughs] Every, there's so many freaking fantastic- Yeah... one-liners in that movie. Pretty sure you could make a movie out of about 90% of that movie and have other movies. Yeah, you could. It's so good. So good.
30:39
And Hi-Fi. Yeah. Of course. Yeah. And that, that hit, the feelgood hit of the summer was teenage suicide. Yep. Don't Do It. Don't Do It. By Big Fun. [laughs] Teenage suicide, don't do it. All right then. There we go.
30:51
And here we go. PS8. Oops. And we PS our way out. All of you watch. Oops, we did it again. Oh. Oh. That's terrible. Ouch. Be sure to watch. Au revoir.
