In this episode on the Anything For Miles cycling podcast, host Mike Puglielli sits down with Andrew Lewine who's a, you guessed it, lifetime cycler, but with a twist. Andrew has changed bike "careers" so to speak a few times—as a kid shredding his MTB to KOM across his local strava segments, to now a full time cycling advocate. Andrew now averaging close to 0 miles a year on strava (a far cry from his 10k+/yr), he focuses his efforts and passion for bikes now on public safety as a cofounder of Walk Bike Andover and leader of the "bike bus" Andover (a local group of parents who cycle with their kids across town to school).

In this episode on the Anything For Miles cycling podcast, host Mike Puglielli sits down with Chris Carey who is a freshly minted Dad who's putting down the miles... and the watts. What started as a foray into triathlons has turned into an obsession on two wheels that's burning up the leaderboards in local events like VT Monster.

In this 2 part episode, Chris shares his secrets to getting the miles in, wherein he makes cycling a part of who he is, a technique he learned from the book "Atomic Habits". Chris also shares insights on the importance of mental wellness through cycling, and the fun (and fast) dynamics of group rides. And we get into Chris's impressive 300-mile ride week, nearly 20hrs on the saddle. The conversation is filled with anecdotes about cycling culture, personal growth, and the camaraderie found in the cycling community.

Stay tuned for Part 2 later this summer.

In this episode on the Anything For Miles cycling podcast, host Mike Puglielli sits down with David Malins who is a charming local legend on the Northshore of Mass. An avid cycler who got his bike appetite wet during his triathlon days. David shares his experience as he adjusts to new numbers on the Garmin and he manages his own expectations with age. We talk about cycling as a dad, but also what it means as a spouse—and how to bring your partner along for the rides. As a cardiologist, David shares what he has told his patients about health and fitness before retiring, with keys to happiness and health involving "routined" fitness. David is disciplined and methodical in his training with every ride having a clear purpose towards his goal.

In this episode on the Anything For Miles cycling podcast, host Mike Puglielli sits down with Steve Miller who is a practical KOM legend here in the Andover’s proper. We talk about cycling as a dad, where you find time to get the miles in, and a funny story where Steve literally puts down his kid to win back a local KOM. Zone 2 be damned, Steve talks about having fun biking by going hard, letting go of the heart rate metrics... and breaking a lot of bikes along the way.
