Join Frank and Mere for a delightful conversation with Echelon Rider, Strider, Rower, and Fitpasser, Kami Young! Learn valuable tips for outdoor riding and bike commuting, hear how Kami and her family made history in the best way, and find out Buddy's origin story. We delve into a major health issue that Kami faced and her experiences with all that was involved including an Echelon comeback.

After the interview, Frank and Mere discuss pupdates and TV, along with an enthralling tale about a Donut Run!

Thanks for listening!

Frank Truong and Meredith Willis head up this new season of the podcast. We're bringing new segments including pupdates and have a list of Echelon community, instructors, and team members a mile long to interview.

This episode reminds you a little bit about who we are (Frank & Mere) and why we're doing this (we're mad for all things Echelon).

Many thanks to Sheldon Young for re-recording our amazing theme song that he wrote, played, and sang and to Abe Kelledjian for helping us get up and running and assisting us with publishing!

This podcast is truly a team effort and YOU the community are part of that team! Thank you for joinging us on this amazing journey and we'll try to keep the workout words to a minimum!
