I sat down with Luke Deasey to chat about the journey behind a cycling career built through years of hard work, persistence and sacrifice.

From growing up in Tamworth to working hard to help fund his racing in Europe, Luke shares the highs, the setbacks and the lessons he learned along the way. We also chat about his recent transition away from professional racing, what life looks like now, and why he has no regrets.

If you're chasing big goals in cycling, or simply enjoy hearing the stories behind the athletes, I think you'll really enjoy this one.

Thanks for coming on the podcast, Luke.

Enjoy!

Today I sat down with 19-year-old cyclist turned triathlete Kobi Mathiske, an athlete with big dreams.

Kobi has always set his sights high, but chasing those ambitions comes with plenty of pressure, uncertainty and sacrifices that often go unseen.

If you're a young cyclist dreaming of making it to the WorldTour, I really encourage you to give this episode a listen. We often focus on the physical side of performance, but the mental side is just as important and doesn't get nearly enough attention.

Thanks for coming on the podcast, Kobi. What a chat.

Enjoy!

I sat down with Oli Stenning to preview the 2026 AusCycling Junior & Masters Road National Championships, taking place in Yandina on the Sunshine Coast from 17 to 20 September.

We break down all three events, starting with Thursday’s time trial, raced over 9.4 km for U15 riders and 15 km for U17 and Masters competitors. We then preview Friday’s criteriums on a fast 2 km circuit, followed by the weekend’s road races on an exciting, punchy course raced on a 10 km lap.

Only interested in the Nationals preview? Skip ahead to 16 minutes. However, I strongly encourage you to listen from the start to get the full lowdown on the epic finish of the Melbourne to Warrnambool, where Oli came agonisingly close to victory and finished a close second.

Enjoy!

On this episode, I’m joined by Simon Cochrane, New Zealand endurance athlete, coach, Ultraman World Champion and one of the most impressive ultra-endurance athletes in the world.

Simon won Ultraman Australia in 2023 in a world-record time of 19:48:47, before going on to win the Ultraman World Championships in Hawaii later that year, becoming the first man to break 21 hours on the course.

We spoke about his journey from Ironman racing into Ultraman, what it takes to race for three days straight, how he manages pacing, fuelling, training, recovery and mindset, and why the simple things matter so much when the distances become extreme.

Simon also shared insights into coaching, family life, trail ultras, and what keeps him chasing huge endurance challenges after already reaching the top of the sport.

A fascinating chat with one of the toughest and most thoughtful athletes in endurance sport.

Returning guest (and brother of the host) Ben Hill joined us today to recap his incredible 2nd place at Ironman Cairns.

Ben has now completed nine Ironmans. In each race, he learns a little more about himself and the sport. Although this was the first time Ben dipped under the eight-hour mark and finished 2nd, the perfect day still eludes him. But he can feel it getting closer and closer.

Enjoy!

How much do you know about calories, lactic acid and FTP?

In this episode, not only do we have a groundbreaking visual component, or 'medium', but we have the first quiz to ever feature on the Podcast.

Britt charitably sat through my assortment of random questions like the absolute trooper that she is. She thrives of gruelling, long and uncomfortable tasks, and it really shows in this episode.

Absolute pleasure to have Britt back on the podcast.

Hope you enjoy, and comment below how you went in the quiz!

Today I caught up with a good mate of mine, Kane Richards.

Kane has an impressive list of results, from winning the Australian National Road Series in 2022 to taking wins across Europe, Asia and New Zealand.

Wherever Kane pins a number on, you know it’s going to be a hard race.

In this episode, Kane gives some fascinating insight into life inside professional racing. We talk about his transition from triathlon to road racing, the small things off the bike that can make a huge difference, and how he has forged a career on two wheels despite some significant setbacks.

Hope you enjoy!

In today’s episode, I welcomed Britt Litton back to the podcast!

Britt has just achieved an extraordinary second place at Ultraman Australia, a brutal event made up of a 10km swim, 421km ride and an 84km double marathon to finish.

We discussed her disastrous lead-in to the race, which saw her unable to train for two weeks right before the event, the numbers required to set the fastest bike split over 421km, how she managed a shoulder injury with 8km still left to swim, and everything that went into lining up, competing and landing on the podium in her debut Ultraman.

If you’re into endurance sport, this episode is for you.

I sat down for the longest CPC podcast yet with gun MTB cyclist Eddie Willis, to chat all things riding! Also, plenty of discussion on swimming…

Eddie is a multiple national champion on the dirt — U15 XCC and U17 XCM — with some impressive road results to match! To name a few, the GC win at Canberra Junior Tour and a stage win at Tour of Bright up the iconic Tawonga Gap.

There’s plenty of chat about training, equipment, and how to develop skills on the MTB, but my favourite part of the podcast is the lessons Eddie has learnt from his rivals, and now mates, who have made it to the highest level of the sport.

There are some great insights here, and we genuinely forgot we were recording a podcast for a while.

Super fun to record this one. I think you’ll really enjoy it.

In this episode, I sit down with my brother and Pro Triathlete Ben Hill to chat all things Ironman.

We discuss Ben’s journey, how he found himself competing against the world’s best in the gruelling sport of Ironman and hard lessons learned along the way.

There’s some golden nuggets of information along the way, and as always plenty of laughs.

Enjoy!
