Ashley and Zube cover PRT Multisport's red-hot start to May: Karla Preece finishing first in her age group at Wildflower 70.3, Jessica Flores taking third, and a full squad racing the KOZ Spring Sprint Triathlon opener. They connect it all to the bigger picture — two World Championship qualifiers building momentum toward Nice, Mario Valdes's structured Road to Ruidoso training program, the deep San Diego Tri Series calendar ahead, and how PRT Multisport has grown from a small group into a real coaching-driven program.

Ashley and Zube welcome five new PRT members and share membership director Dan Mahaffey's personal reflection on what being part of PRT means to him. Dan joined in 2022 for his own cycling goals but quickly discovered the biggest reward was being part of the family — the volunteering, the events, the friendships. His closing advice: participate, participate, participate. He's also challenging every PRT member to write their own paragraph about what membership means to them. Plus a rundown of the full ride calendar and how to join at padyakracingteam.com. Stay connected at https://padyakracingteam.com/ and on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/padyak_racing_team/.

Ashley and Zube spotlight PRT Gold Tier sponsor Bonnici Law Group and managing attorney Joshua Bonnici — a lifelong San Diego cyclist with nearly 30 years on the bike, 5,000 miles a year, a 2024 California State Track Masters Championship, two Leadville 100 finishes, and medals from USA Cycling Nationals. They dig into the personal story behind his practice — his father's 1999 bicycle accident — and how Joshua has built a career at the intersection of law and cycling, helping over a dozen PRT members with injury cases while also serving as title sponsor of SDBC, supporting Bike San Diego and the Blind Stokers Club, and co-sponsoring the pro field payout at this weekend's JKC Memorial.

Ashley and Zube dedicate a special mini-episode to the biggest weekend on PRT's calendar: La Copa San Diego. For the first time, Padyak Racing Team and San Diego Bicycle Club are co-hosting a two-day omnium — Saturday's 29th Annual Barrio Logan Grand Prix criterium in downtown San Diego, and Sunday's fifth annual JKC Memorial Hunte Parkway Road Race in Chula Vista's Eastlake community. They tell the story of Julius Kim Cunanan, PRT's first president and co-founder, who was killed on a Sunday training ride in January 2021 at age 40 — and how PRT transformed that grief into a race that earned SCNCA state championship status in its very first year, grew to 256+ racers by year two, and now anchors a community festival with a Perros Bravos 5K, a Mattel-sponsored kids event, food vendors, and close to 80 volunteers.

They break down PRT's incredible Belgian Waffle Ride results across road and gravel, spotlight the twelve-person volunteer crew that ran an aid station from dawn to dusk, celebrate Karla Preece and Jessica Flores stacking more triathlon podiums at Wildflower 70.3, and dig into the story of Gold Tier sponsor Bonnici Law Group and managing attorney Joshua Bonnici — a state track champion, two-time Leadville 100 finisher, and lifelong San Diego cyclist who co-sponsors the pro field payout at this weekend's JKC Memorial. The heart of the episode is La Copa San Diego Omnium: the Barrio Logan Grand Prix on Saturday co-hosted by SDBC, and the fifth annual JKC Memorial Hunte Parkway Road Race on Sunday — PRT's flagship event honoring founding president Julius Kim Cunanan. They cover the history of the race, the community festival with the Perros Bravos 5K, the Mattel-sponsored kids event, the eighty volunteers making it all work, and what it means to see the whole club's identity on display for one weekend. Plus: Racer Cup shakeup with Sergio Lugo surging to second, Dan Mahaffey's personal reflection on what being part of PRT means, five new members, State TT and Crit Championships closing out the month, and Bike Anywhere Day on May 21.
