FIVE THINGS is a feature on the Banjo Brothers Blog. It’s a short interview about life and bicycles with a notable person. This week's notable person is cyclist Amanda Batty.
Raised on a farm just outside of Payson, Utah, Amanda Batty is a recently retired professional downhill and enduro racer. Described on the Packfiller Podcast by host Patrick Bulger as, "fast, opinionated, colorful, fun and as she says herself, feisty as f--k."
Batty's love-affair with the bike is eloquently chronicled on her personal website and it's just one of the many reasons she's a compelling subject for our Five Things project.

This week's notable person is cyclist Tyler Huber, a father of two, husband, avid cyclist, graphic designer and co-founder of the Burleigh County Bicycle Cult and Burleigh County Cup w/ Ian Easton.
It’s been six years since we made the Burleigh County Bicycle Cult jerseys that said “Adventure is Dead” on the collar as a joke about how overused and meaningless that word has become. Let’s give it a rest, shall we?

Truth be told, I'm not doing much riding lately due to the arrival of Child #2. My ride is generally the 2.6 miles to and from work. What's great about it, however, is that I go over the Mississippi every day. Once in the morning light and now in the dark.
