This week we sit down with Jared Brown — aka Jrod — and it's a heavy one in the best way possible. Jrod opens up about his upbringing, the years lost to drug addiction, and the moment everything had to change. Then comes the twist: he finds mountain biking, falls head over handlebars in love with it, and starts absolutely crushing it — on the trails and in life.It's a conversation that's equal parts gutting and hilarious. We get real about rock bottom, the ugly middle, and why pedaling uphill turned out to be the therapy nobody prescribed. Jrod doesn't sugarcoat the hard stuff, but somehow he still has us laughing by minute twenty.Then it's trip recap time: Day 1 of our Angel Fire bike trip. Checked. Legs burning? Obviously. Questionable line choices, big descents, and at least one moment we'll never live down. We break down the trails, the wins, and the general chaos of getting a crew and their bikes up a mountain.
