Welcome back, friends!
The Bikes Change Lives crew teamed up with the folks at Brainstoke this week. Don’t worry, we’re not trading our bikes for therapy couches, but we did have a deep dive into how biking does more than just move our bodies—it clears our minds too. More on that conversation coming up!
Bikes Change Lives Teams up with Brainstoke!
We joined Preston and Tom on the Brainstoke podcast to dig into some real talk about our journey—both on and off the trail. From CJ’s wild recovery after his life-threatening accident to my connection with my brother, this episode is full of stories that shaped who we are and why we keep chasing challenges (like that St. George Marathon we swore we’d never do again…).
In the episode, we dive into:
Growing up as best friends and getting into trouble together.
CJ’s collegiate soccer career and the leadership mentality that helped him push through the toughest times.
My young married life and the bond with my brother that keeps me going.
CJ’s crash, the hard road to recovery, and how that led him to the Leadville starting line.
Our mission to raise awareness for mental health and the power of embracing vulnerability.
We’re redefining what it means to be an athlete, not just in races but in life. It’s not all about the finish line—it’s about showing up, connecting with yourself and your crew, and pushing your limits, whether you’re running marathons or just taking those first steps.
Catch the full episode for some laughs, lessons, and a reminder that your struggles aren’t just your own. Together, let’s make mental health a daily priority.
New kit incoming? You didn’t hear it from us…Shhhh.
If you know BCL, you know we like to keep things fresh with new kit drops every few months.
With the Utah temps dropping, you can bet we’ve got something up our sleeve.
Darker vibes? Maybe. But don’t worry, we’re sticking with those bold colors you know and love.
We’ll be dropping it here first, so spread the word and keep your crew in the loop!
