Amanda and Bill chat about the MTB Olympic athlete selection and the Nove Mesto World Cup before discussing everything happening at this weekend's Unbound Gravel. We review changes to the course, the starting procedure, and some pre-event drama before picking our favorites for this year's pro fields in the 200-mile race.
