XOXOJK 28: American Flag Banana Seat

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 43:35 — 30.0MB)

Bikes are our first topic this week. We talk first bikes, getting back in the saddle, and Kate’s Dad being the Grandfather of Minneapolis Cycling. We get in to the independence they create in our lives, as well as recommendations for getting good bikes routes to the places you regularly go and a super cycling podcast. Kate went to a class at Solcana CrossFit last week, loved it, and is starting as a member this week WHAT WHAT. The test class was a humbling experience in the best possible way and left her wanting more. We wrap up this week giving recommendations for our favorite sunscreens and the importance of covering yourself for incidental exposure. Then, our favorite tweets of this week as the icing on the cake. Kate goes serious, Jenn goes funny. It’s not called XOXOJK for nothing, folks.
