99 Problems and Billy is One - Billy Dickinson

About this episode
We sit down with Billy to trace how a Guthrie kid with BMX roots stumbles into gravel, survives a wildly undertrained Land Run 100, and ends up chasing single speed podiums across the country. We also get real about what distances stay fun, why cyclocross hits different, and how books, travel, and stoicism shape the way we suffer on bikes and live the rest of life.
• starting cycling late and learning fast through Land Run
• single speed racing logic and why it is not as heroic as it sounds
• Garmin Gravel Worlds navigation problems and still landing second
• Steamboat Gravel on single speed and choosing when to walk
• how cyclocross becomes the most enjoyable kind of misery
• free OKC cross practice plan at Lake Overholser
• travel highs in Alaska and disappointments in Louisville
• Denver food surprise at City O’ City and what makes it great
• dropping weight through better habits and watching macros
• painting bikes for friends and what makes a custom frame rewarding
• stoicism, Meditations, Daily Stoic habits, and book recommendations
Show up to cross September 9th. Yeah, show up, have fun, help us set up, help us tear down. Whatever you can do.
