Description

"?‍♂️? Get ready for an electrifying episode as we dive deep into the captivating world of Team Spanish Beer's Team Captain, Matt Thompson! This cycling sensation has taken Jacksonville, Florida, by storm. Four years ago, four buddies, Doug, Matt, Mike, and Craig, set out on their maiden MS150 Cycle to the Shore ride. They thought they'd be Team DMC, but fate had other plans. Picture this: the night before the ride, their bike shop sponsorship goes up in smoke, leaving them without jerseys. In a scramble, they grab four jerseys representing different beers – Dos Equis, Corona, Tecate, and Sol. As they cruised to Daytona, they became 'the beer guys.' By day's end, it's 'the Spanish beer guys,' and just like that, Team Spanish Beer was born. Fast forward to today, and we've got an epic tale of camaraderie and commitment. Team Spanish Beer's journey from a fun outing to a powerhouse of purpose is a ride worth taking. With personal ties to MS in their ranks, they've grown to over 30 strong, raising a staggering $90,000 for the MS cause. Stay tuned as we celebrate their ten-year anniversary and explore their relentless pursuit of a world free from MS. This is a podcast episode you won't want to miss, featuring the remarkable Team Captain, Matt Thompson!"
