Description

A podcast dedicated to the joys, miseries, and lessons left unlearned from your big dumb bike rides. If you ride or race bikes for long enough, you're bound to have one (or many) bike rides that were ill-conceived, didn't go as planned, or that were just plain hard. But these are the rides that give stories to tell and teach us a thing-or-two about who we are and remind us why, no matter how ridiculous the endeavor, we love to ride our bikes. This is a lighthearted, interview style podcast dedicated to exploring the misadventure stories from some of your big dumb rides.

Join us on the 5th episode of Season 2 of the BDR. We chat with Cynthia, AKA Watt Wagon, about imaginary nutcrackers, volcano emojis, organizing gravel races, and some of the biggest, dumbest rides out there.
What goes up must come down, and then back up, and then down, and then...
On today’s episode with chat with Nate Baker, co-owner of Hush Money Bikes, about coming home to Lancaster, PA, uncrustables, forest swords, planning big dumb rides like the Fall Fuckaround and the Hootananny, and his biggest, dumbest ride of all: a highly unexpected open heart surgery and the recovery journey to getting back to doing what he does best: fucking around and finding out on two wheels.
In this special episode we change things up a bit by forgoing the guest and instead recap our own big dumb ride: the 2021 Trans-Virginia Bike Route. Check out the official TVA website here:https://www.transvirginia.org/ and Andy's account of the ride on the Radavist:https://theradavist.com/serendipity-on-the-tva-550-miles-and-a-roll-of-superia-x-tra-400-film/
Emily joins the hosts of the Big Dumb Ride to kick off season 2 in style. We talk about everything from gas station hotdogs, to why mountain bikes are great for yeeting off everything, to bent chainrings, and of course underground bike racing and the wonderfully unique MTNCAT100.
