Leadville, The 100 Mile Mountain Bike Race Podcast p/b ShimanoS6E02: John Gaston is faster than you (and bikes aren't even his thing)We love a good Leadville story, and John Gaston is a great storyteller. And it doesn't hurt that the only guy who could beat him in the 2022 LT100MTB was some guy named Keegan. The crazy thing is, racing bikes is not really what he's into. They're more of his side hustle -- his off-season way to stay sharp and in shape. But that doesn't mean he doesn't sweat the details, and it for sure doesn't mean he doesn't know his way around the course. Enjoy John's story, and join us in relishing tha...
