Kinning Podcast

Last week I caught up with Richard Barry. Richard has been at the sharp end of the Cycling Ireland Zwift races and the TUZ races even taking a few wins. He has also made big progress in cyclocross in the last few seasons finishing 5th at the last nationals. We chatted about what changes he made to cross and his approach to training. 

Caught up with Chris McGlinchey this week. Chris is one of the best riders in Ireland and to top that is multidiscipline. Having come from downhill racing to the top of road racing, he's a collection of wins and achievements. On top of this he has recently rode the E world championships, racing on line. He recently won the Zwift Tour of the North. We chatted about his transition from DH to his Zwift set up, team and future plans. 

Me and Mark Johnston break down the stages of this years Tour of the North held on Zwift. All info on TUZ Facebook page. 

Archie F**KIN Ryan. A little late this week but worth the wait, caught up with friend Archie Ryan. I first met Archie at the UCI cross world in 2018. He was a junior then but very clued in to racing and training. He's taking a different approach to racing and has been based abroad for the start of his career with very little racing in Ireland. He's went from strength to strength and has beat some big names already. We chat cross, missing shoes, hair, Fortnite and racing in Belgium. 

Caught up with Lindsay Watson tonight. We chatted about his transition from MTB to road racing near death experience, Training, Zwift and racing. Lindsay is one of the top riders in Ireland and was ranked 1st on Cycling Ireland points. He has his name on a lot of trophies on the local scene, represented Ulster and still progressing. We had a quick chat and insight to his view on Zwift racing. Many thanks for coming on board and promise to get him back in when he takes a win, to break down the race. 

Some will be glad to now thats the last zwift bases podcast, for a while. Me and Mark Johnston have a quick chat about TUZ rd 8. 

A great chat with local legend and Zwift man, Ross Blayney. Ross has been a big part of local cycling for the last 30 years through racing and more recently on Zwift. We talked bout his past and the future plans for the Ulster Zwift events.
