Road Is Dead

Tim goes over his insights from Barry Roubaix and Gravel in general as we all come to the realization that time is finite for people and that being in the moment while riding is the key to enjoyment Cast: Mike Friedman, Tim Strelecki, and Robert Curtis.

Topics can range widely from riding, road cycling enthusiasts, cyclocross racing, gravel racing, road racing, professional and amateur racing, grassroots cycling and events, industry discussions and trends. While based in the greater Chicagoland area regular guests are from all over. Main focus is on US domestic cycling.
