Episode 508: John Peter

Get ready for all the feels with this one! We had the chance to sit down and talk with John Peter (The Stable Cyclist) to chat about all things mental health, bikes and of course video work in the cycling space!

Continuing our release of episodes from Big Sugar, we had the chance to sit down with Joe Goettl of Goettl Media to talk about his amazing 2025 season and content creation surrounding his training and racing- and of course his 2025 Gravel Worlds experience! This episode is sponsored by Lauf Cycles

We had the chance to sit down with Drew Dillman, professional cyclist on the Lunchbox Team and also co-host of Bonk Bros before Big Sugar down in Bentonville, AR. We got to chat about his 2025 season, becoming more comfortable on the mountain bike, and of course his Gravel Worlds experience!

We caught up with Holy Spirit of Gravel in Bentonville just before Big Sugar to talk gravel culture, community, and the energy that makes this sport different. A quick, thoughtful conversation about belief, place, and why we keep lining up... and of course why it's important to keep things fun.

In this episode, we sit down with Shane and Jeremy Hutsell, a father-son duo who took on the grueling Unbound 200 together. But this ride wasn’t just about miles and mud. It was a journey fueled by purpose, love, and a reason much bigger than themselves. Tune in as they share what drove them through the Flint Hills, the highs and lows of riding side by side, and the powerful story behind why they showed up to the start line.
