Maybe I was kind of saying that is like the bones of the equipment really hasn't, but that's, what's been really impressive.

And Kyle's been part of that.

I mean, we took two bikes to Hawaii in 2024 because we had a sponsor, a shipping and logistics company that sent a pallet for us of all our gear.

Um,

And we went and practiced on the bikes and Kyle said, we got to use the lay down bike.

And I was like, well, the wind forecast, the surf report, which is what we were looking at.

I was like, it doesn't look too bad.

He was like, it's the smartest way for me to race Hawaii.

Like what a cool statement to hear from Kyle, right?

Like if we set out for him to be an athlete, he damn sure leaned hard into that because he was making decisions on which equipment we were going to use.

You know, you read stories about like the behavior of,

athletes that are worried about like cyclists in the Tour de France, like wind tunnel testing and wearing certain helmets because they've done all this data.

Like that was Kyle.

I mean, Kyle went to a bike shop one time and laid on a couch with pillows to support him at a 45 degree angle and tried on like 15 different helmets until he was like, yeah, buy this one because that one's going to make me comfortable for nine hours.

Right.

And be like,

He's an athlete.

He's trying to figure this stuff out, same as me.

And that's a pretty cool thing to watch because he's part of that process too.

Yeah, 100%.
