Episode 161 - Big Name Tour Dropouts and Dizzle Cracked the Top 10(6) in Iceland!
What up party people. I apologize for the sweat beading off my face, I just got back from a steamy rucking session over at the local ski hill and it's absolutely scorchin' out there. Luckily, I had all day fuel on board from our friends at KetoneAid so now I'm straight buzzin' and ready to get back to some good ol' computer work and house stuff.
Speaking of friends at KetoneAid, I want to give a heartfelt thank you to all of y'all who continue to support the show with your hard earned dollars by picking up some of your favorite products from any number of our amazing show sponsors. We love hearing from our partners that y'all are straight up killing it with the use of those discount codes because it truly does help us keep this thing rolling. None of us have actually taken any pieces from the pie personally yet, however, having some play money allows us to do cool things like upgrade equipment when we need it, pay for professional producing so your boy doesn't have to go back to receiving hate mail every week for the shoddy edit jobs I was doing back in the old days, we also get to use those funds to come to events and meet with some of y'all in person (like Leadville in a few weeks, Chequamegon the month after, I'm sure a few of us will be down at Big Sugar again to witness Dylan having NOT fun at the gravel rave, and you better believe we're bringing the heat to the legendary Iceman in November). Also, if you stick around to the end of the show you'll hear a teaser for a new spin off podcast that will be launching here soon, so just another example of those funds going to cool things.
That said, if you're new here I'll just quickly rattle off a few of our continued supporters so you can hop on the discount code train along with our boy Dizzle who's always shopping those sales.
We've got the lovely crew over at Silca, our longest running show sponsor who's always mixing it up with fun discount codes to share with y'all with the latest code being “Bonkbrosjuly2025”.
For that silky smooth shave experience check out our homies over at Bolk Skin + Shave (code: "BROS15")
For all of your bicycle tire and accessory shopping needs head over to Bike Tires Direct (or BTD as we call them) and use code “bonkbros”
Just a couple more here for y’all like I mentioned at the top of the show KetoneAid who is killing the game in ketone energy (link in the show notes: https://ketoneaid.com/?utm_source=BonkBros).
JOIN CYCLING, the latest AI training platform to come in and help get you faster on the bike (and hopefully healthier off the bike too). Head over to join.cc/ bonkbros to check out their programs.
And last one for today is the Bicycle Accident Law. Spearheaded by Matthew Scarborough, who is with you on every ride, for better or worse. Just mention the Bonk Bros sent you if you’re in need of their services for a bonus offer.
OK so if you have any questions or feedback for the show you can drop us a note at bonkbrospodcast@gmail.com or hit up the Bonk Bros instagram page (@bonkbros @dylanjawnson @adamsaban6 @tylerclouti @raddaddizzle @scottmcgilljr).

Tour Talk and DJ's Riding the (Over)train to Leadville

Episode 160 - Tour Talk and DJ's Riding the (Over)train to Leadville
What up party people. Thanks for all the positive feedback y’all gave us for the episode with Alex Howes last week. Sounds like y’all really enjoyed having him mixed into the conversations, which probably says more about Howesy himself than anything we brought to the table but nonetheless, we enjoyed it too. Hopefully we can have Alex back in the hot seat again soon for y’all to pick up where we left off.
If you have any questions or feedback for the show you can drop us a note at bonkbrospodcast@gmail.com or hit up the Bonk Bros instagram page (@bonkbros @dylanjawnson @adamsaban6 @tylerclouti @raddaddizzle @scottmcgilljr). 
If you want to support the podcast while also gifting yourself a little something in the process, you can pick up some amazing products from any (or all) of our loyal partners and be sure that you’re getting the best of the best because we only work with the best of the best. 
Speaking of the best of the best, Bolt Skin + Shave brings you the absolute best leg shaving experience possible. Every time you hop in the shower to shave those yeti legs, Bolt brings the silky smooth gift of the most advanced leg shaving experience money can buy.

Next up is our friends over at Bike Tires Direct where you can get basically anything you could possibly want or need to support your cycling addiction. I just just got back from ripping my way through the high country of Crested Butte, Colorado while putting some new Vittoria Barzos to the test and so far I’ve been pretty impressed. They handled the chunk like an absolute champ (even though I did hit the deck at one point, but that wasn’t the tires fault), and I even won our local short track race on them last night to prove they can also rip some steamy fast trail racing. Check out all the tires from Vittoria and countless other brands over at biketiresdirect.com and use the code “bonkbros” at checkout. 
For all bike maintenance and marginal gains needs head over to Silca.cc and use the code “Bonkbrosjuly2025” at checkout for a sweet little discount. With the popularity of chain waxing gaining mucho traction this year at the Tour, don’t miss out on those extra watt savings and not only that, Silca chain wax has been proven to save you extra lifespan on your precious drivetrain components which is a pretty big deal given how expensive chains and cassettes have gotten these days. Check out all the chain waxing options and so much more from our homies at Silca, and again that’s code “Bonkbrosjuly2025” for an extra discount.
This week DJ gave us an update on the latest status of his leg recovery, including his first time out on dirt since the accident. If you should find yourself in a similar situation where you come into contact with a moving vehicle while out riding, make sure you always have your go-to resource handy to help you navigate the legality of the situation. Scarborough Bicycle Accident Law wants to be with you every step of the way throughout the process, and to show their continued support beyond the court room, they’re now offering TWO FREE months of coaching with Ignition Coach Co for any of our listeners who find themselves in that unfortunate situation. Just mention the Bonk Bros sent you and they will get you back on the bike ASAP.
And last but not least this week is definitely a brand you’ll be seeing plenty of over the next few weeks at the Tour. That’s right, our trustworthy homies over at KetoneAid are doing ketone supplementation right so if you want to get your hands (or mouth) on that same liquid gold as all the fast bois at the Tour then click the link in the show notes to get you some today. 
Alright that’s all the business for today, let’s get this party started!

Episode 159 - Alex Howes in the House
What up party people. Boy do we have a good one for y’all this week. Our guest, Alex Howes, has been a long time coming.

Anyway, tune in for some big announcements and hot takes.
