Holy Spirit ventured to Emporia, Kansas to get ACTIVATED. The 200 mile pro field race was full of ruts, dangerous riding by non-elite riders, and clogged with normies on the course. Is it time to redefine the spirit of gravel? (aka the discussion that happens after every race)

More importantly, did the Holy Spirit almost end the race of an unnamed privateer (named John Borstelmann).

Lifetime Grand Prix is actually good this year because of Pas Racing, Cecily Decker, and Simon Pellaud. Also, Cam Jones might not be able to accept his prize money due to Visa issues. Was the real winner of Unbound Peyson McElveen's gravel commentating career? We define "the Double" which was achieved by Karo Mignon. And clear up the difference between Cecily Decker and Cecile LeJeune.

We talk about Rosa Kloser, PhD candidate, stopping by the E.F. tent, ketone cults, calling yourself a future Gravel Hall of Famer, equality for multiple distances, Holy Spirits parental support crew, denim jackets, and Holy Spirit's visit to the Pas House.

The Holy Spirit prepares to head to the most ACTIVATED city in the world--Emporia, Kansas. There's activations, there's GU wrappers, and there's apparently a gravel Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. The PD SQD (pod squad) previews the UNBOUND 200 with no information or data. More importantly, will normies be taking selfies with privateers at shakeout rides? The event will be livestreamed, but will we get more vibes than people shouting "let's go Keegan." The only true narrative about UNBOUND is the Mud vs. No Mud binary.

EMERGENCY POD to discuss Dylan Johnson's accident--he was hit by a truck and details are scarce. All we know is that he won't be at UNBOUND--not even an activation. His absence will be felt, but will it lead to a revolution of DJ content? Is it time to break up the Bonk Bros? Alexey Vermuelen was on Payson's "With Pace" episode where they talk about gravel mortality. Unbound is going to have a livestream! Gravel is being 'perceived' by the masses? Well, at least we like livestreams. Also Holy Spirit does a FOMO Gravel Locos preview because Pas Racing is going and she won't be there.
