Eric tells us all about how he single-handedly apprehended vandalism perpetrators while riding his bike then we review a new documentary about the fabled New Zealand Epic Camp called “Going Long Going Hard.” We wrap it up by trash talking about out upcoming home-race the Twin Lakes Triathlon in Palatine, IL.

If you know us at all you know that we love gear! In this episode we list all of our favorite gear with one rule: it can't be a swimsuit, goggles, a bike, or shoes. It's all the other stuff that makes Tri-gear so much fun. We also check in with "Team Unthinkables" member Jeff Wright about his fundraising efforts with the Scott Rigsby Foundation.
