Back on the Bus

We had a great chat with Dan Jones this week! Dan was the creator of the Backstage Pass with GreenEDGE Cycling if you have not watched any episodes you need to:

Dan really changed the game of how fans got to see a realistic look into a World Tour cycling team and captured its inner workings. We hope you enjoy listening to some more behind-the-camera stories! 

Since we are in May and the Giro is on, we sat down and talked about it! Svein raced 7 Giro’s and wore the maglia rosa in 2014, so he has plenty of great insight and stories from over the years. We hope you enjoy!

We have Anthony Walsh on hand this week from the Roadman Cycling podcast. Anthony gets into his outlook on life from law school to cycling and some startups in between. Anthony has built himself a great podcast that you should check out if you have not already. We hope you enjoy!

In this episode, we sit down with the legend Mathew Hayman and touch on his long career at the top of the sport. This weekend the peloton races the third monument of the year Paris-Roubaix, so it’s fitting we chat about when he won the race in 2016! He is still leaving his mark on the sport as a director of the world tour team BikeExchange-Jayco which is the same team he finished up his racing days with. We had a great time hearing more of Hayman’s story and we hope you enjoy it as well.

We had our good friend Mike woods back for round 2 on the poddy. Mike is always good for some great stories and he certainly didn't disappoint. We talk about his trials and tribulations in this wild early season where the illnesses are ripping through the peloton. We also get into his off-season training where he goes skimo in the mountains of Andorra. We hope you enjoy this one and please share it with your friends.

We are back for season two! Kicking things off with us this year is Ben Perry, a Canadian road cyclist currently living and racing in Europe. Ben has raced for small teams, big teams, and everything in between and he talks us through his journey at all levels of the sport. We really enjoyed starting things back up with Ben and we hope you enjoy it! 

We have a different show for you this week! We just finished up a three-day gravel bikepacking trip from Gold Bridge, BC. It was a wild trip with lots of great stories that we share in this episode as we sat down with the whole crew: Rob Britton, Jamie Sparling and Taylor Little. We hope you enjoy it!

What a great chat we had with our man Hugo Houle. Hugo made a big impression on both Randy and me back in 2011 when he was 20 years old as he had a level of professionalism that stood out for someone of that age. We always knew he would make it to the world tour but he has become such an amazing rider in the super domestique role. He's found his niche in the sport and is one of the best in the business at helping others win. In our discussion, Hugo describes his progression over the years and the discipline and long-term outlook it takes to make it to the top level of the sport. There are some real gems in here for some of our younger riders to take in. We hope you enjoy this one!

Mike Woods sits down with us this week after a busy month! Mike has some great stories to tell and after reflecting on the episode it's amazing to hear about the path he took to get to where he is now. He could have easily packed it in after any of his crazy setbacks but kept getting back up and now he is one of the best road cyclists in the world! We hope you enjoy it! We had some recording issues with this one (but it doesn’t affect the stories!) - after all, we are just a few guys recording in backyards in different parts of the world.
