For the final Bootleg Miles episode of the year, JP dives into the ongoing debate from The Stable Cyclist Podcast and brings in answers from some of the biggest names in the sport: Gravel Hall-of-Famers Selene Yeager and Amanda Sheek, American Crit legend Brad Huff, gravel pros Justin McQuerry, Chase Wark and Dylan Johnson, WorldTour veterans Ian Boswell and Pete Stetina, TrainerRoad’s Jonathan Lee, journalist Ben Delaney, former US MTB National Champs Carson Beckett and Gordon Wadsworth and even the Holy Spirit of Gravel. Along the way, JP breaks down rural gas station culture, his favorite stops in Minnesota and North Dakota, the genius of the “redneck ice sock,” and the simple joy of a cold Coke or a counter-top treat that definitely wasn’t made in a factory. We’ll also take a ride out to Olson’s Service in Sentinel Butte, ND — a full-service station straight out of Cars and Route 66 history — and talk about why these places matter more than we think. This episode wraps up a full season of gravel adventures, filmmaking, racing, and podcasting.Thanks for coming along for the ride — and remember: you are loved.
