The 5:40 Podcast
It's 5:40AM ......time to clip in!!
Welcome to the The 5:40 Cycling Podcast! The virtual Pardee & Grants Trail meeting point in South St. Louis County USA.
Any day is the perfect day to cycle along with Jon and Jim, as we regale, banter and celebrate what makes 5:40 Grants Trail Cycling special - our friendship, community and mostly our love of cycling together:
Our aim is to entertain, inform, connect, and boost 5:40 spirit and build togetherness. Just like every bike ride, every episode promises to be an adventure for sure; exclusive interviews, explore the origin and history of our group, ramblings and musings, updates, local news & cycling trends, puzzlers, and other bonus material. Who knows who will show up at 5:40, how fast or slow we will go, will we flat out and who we will meet along the way!??
Thanks for showing up!!

Welcome all 5:40 friends! It is finally here, the first episode of The 5:40 Podcast. Created by 5:40 riders, for 5:40 Riders and about 5:40 riders. Today, Frank and the gang are all here at our beloved Pardee and Grants Trail starting spot! Turn on your lights, clip in and let's head down the trail... and let the adventures commence! Today's exclusive interview is with Frank Curotto, a longstanding stalwart member of our group. Jon and I pepper Frank with questions about when and how he first rode the trail and even what he was wearing when he discovered the "Trail Riders" way back when. Frank in turn regales us with many colorful stories of cycling, bikes, time trials, and what being a member of the trail rider team means to him. He even shares the secrets of his unique breathing technique. Also included will be other bonus content such as:
- A Bike Puzzler where you can win a prize
