Today we’re broadcasting from 111 W Olive St, Old Town Fort Collins, the home of Brave New Wheel. We’ve got co-owner, Johnny Daggett as our DJ. Johnny is from Nevada City, Nevada and has been in the Fort for 8 years. He and Mike Woodard purchased BNW 5 years ago and moved the shop to the current location in the Spring of 2019. 

When do you listen to these? If you’ve been in the shop (Brave New Wheel) you’ve likely heard a few of these tunes playing there.

Favorite bike? Whatever I’m on at the particular moment. I recently rode a vintage ‘91 Cannondale MB1 with campy mountain group up to the Wyoming border and back. My Raleigh Super Course coaster brake commuter gets the most daily miles though.

Favorite ride? A big ride in the mountain park/Lory usually including Wathen, Mill Creek or Timber.

Preferred style of riding?  I like to mix it up between mountain and gravel with some vintage road miles in the summer and some fat biking the winter… so really ALL THE BIKES!

Also, keep an eye out for Johnny’s All-City. Someone jacked it from Lucky’s about a month ago.

Everything from donating all funds from Tour de Fat to local cycling nonprofits to hosting Tuesday night shorttrack, Tuesday night cyclocross, Cross of the North and the FoCo Fondo. They were the title…
