Anti Coffee Podcast

After a short hiatus the Bicycle Bean Boys (nickname pending approval) are back as they ramp up the anticipation, the tension of Mission to Milan: The Greatest Ever Coffee Ride. Routefinding, sartorial choices, languages, and of course the bid to become World, European or Village Sign Champion. It's a quick funny one this week. Should be alright.

Watch our YouTube channel it's banging: ANTI COFFEE YOUTUBE CHANNEL

Enjoy!

A collage of bonus recordings we made on our journey around the NC500. Recorded in multiple segments starting at Inverness Castle we take you to our first village sign sprint before we record our tired tones of the first night in a B&B and on to the beginning of Day 2. We then catch up in Ullapool before a monologue of Tony fixing his broken bike in Scourie. We go over our thoughts upon reaching John O'Groats and then a final word from DS Nelson back at the castle upon finishing.

Listen back to Part 1 & 2 of our North Coast 500 drama to get some context to these ramblings!

The last proper one before we abandon civilisation for the great wild north. But let's not get too ahead of ourselves - there will still be moules frites at the Applecross Inn. In this episode we discuss some of the most important advice from our guests, we'll hear from the boss who we're hoping is VERY happy with our training (eating) progress and probably do ourselves out of any future tasty sponsorship deals. With a week to go before our first big training milestone, how are we shaping up to complete the Greatest Ever Coffee Ride. The only way to find out is by listening to Anti Coffee.

This week we share some CRUCIALLY IMPORTANT NEWS about our mission to complete the Greatest Ever Coffee Ride. As part of that we need some guests from whom we can absorb super powers: that's our M.O. This week we've got the crown prince of endurance: Rab Wardell. An idol of ours, a literal Local Legend, a man famous for his West Highland Way FKT movie and someone who probably spends more time on his bike than off it. Hear about how Rab almost made his heart explode with caffeine, his take on our key obsessions of Strava, Village Signs, Le Couture and of course: coffee. Enjoy dreamerz.

If you're gasping on more Rab content, check out his website HERE or Wardell Cycle Coaching HERE

This show - it's champs only. This week we're joined by reigning World Coffee Master Agnese Sokolovska. Having not just endured, but WON one of coffee's most intense and gruelling competitions we were keen to try and absorb some of her powers of performance to spur us on in our pursuit of The Greatest Ever Coffee Ride. Onwards we go!

Thanks so much to Agnese for lending us her time (and her powers!).

Big guest this week. At the beginning of 2022 one man perched atop the UCI World rankings - above the likes of Pog, Rog and my darling Alaphilippe. It was this man - Commonwealth Gold Medalist Mark Stewart. Winner of the New Zealand Cycling Classic. Romantic. Calibre athlete. Mindful. Strong willed. From Dundee. So we engage him on all the important subjects: cheese, mice, who's the biggest prick in the peloton, media training and of course the big one - how to beat each other for Village Signs. Will Mark's advice help us in our goal to complete the Biggest Ever Coffee Ride? Well, that's between us and the ballot box... Enjoy dreamerz.

Check out Mark's vlogs, where he gives us a behind the curtain look at the life of a pro cyclist:
