Burning Matches
Kurt Hoffmann
Presented by Alien Feedings, Burning Matches is the stories of people who love riding bikes - and often love racing bikes - and the lessons, joy, peace and power we can all gain from them.
Kurt Hoffmann is a former Cat 2 Junior bike racer who raced for the St. Louis Cycling Club during one of its heydays in the 1980s. Founded in 1887, SLCC is the oldest cycling club in the US.
Kurt returned to bike racing in 2022 for Northern California bike racing team Red Peloton.
"Cycling has always been the greatest outlet for me and became even more important to me as I went through some extremely challenging times in 2024. The cycling community and time spent on my bike were my salvation.
