This week Jeremy talks to Swiss cyclocross pro Simon Zahner about balancing his career with a wife and family, and how he's struggled with a career in a country where cycling is still relatively a fringe sport. He also shares his resources at races with a close friend and fellow Swiss pro, Marcel Wildhaber. Zahner is known within cross for being particularly skilled at riding in the snow and ice and he talks about how this has enabled him to get podiums at World Cups.
