The SkullKrusher welcomes back Klaus who tells a few tales of his trip to Paris-Roubaix. Mike and Natalia also join in as they discuss Amstel Gold, the Fleche Wallonne (men's and women's), and all sorts of other stuff like Quincy Jones, Klaus' favorite topic: Alejandro Valverde's hairline.

We were all left speechless after the amazing race that Paris-Roubaix turned out to be, so the episode is mostly silence, except for when Mike, 'Krusher and the newest member of the team, Natalia talk and talk and talk. We love run-on sentences. We explore women's cycling and hope that it will become a recurring theme in the podcast going forward, now that Natalia has joined the gang.

After a thrilling Tour of Flanders, we look forward to Paris-Roubaix. We also talk about Boston. A young lady was waiting for her flight in the boarding room of a big airport. As she would need to wait many hours, she decided to buy a book to spend her time. She also bought a packet of cookies. She then sat down in an armchair, in the VIP room of the airport, to rest and read in peace. Cycling.

The brothers fly "solo" and discuss comic book movies, bad Metallica records, Silicon Valley, the show, and Colombian soccer. In an unexpected turn of events they also talk about cycling; specifically the recent races from Milan-Sanremo on. They also make fun of Mike. Of course.

The original title for the episode was going to be "Civil War: Underoos Make Cycling Great Again," but the squares in marketing made us change it. The one and only Nate King Cole joins us from California to share a few stories from his trip to the Strade Bianche. After that we talk about Paris-Adriatico, boiled meats, Dayer Quintana's great-great grand brother, the presidential election, Colombian Chinarellos, Captain America, waffles and close the episode discussing Milan-Sanremo. Oh, we also decided to always refer to Geraint Thomas as "G."

Klaus took some time off, so we welcomed back CD as a co-host. He's Portland royalty, you know. With the season finally on it's way, we waste like 20 minutes talking about Instagram, Paraguay, internet top-level domains (TLDs) and unemployment. Eventually we get around to discussing the 2016 Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and the Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne. Finally we talk more nonsense and make our picks for the Strade Bianche.

The nerdiest episode ever. Dr. Krusher swings by with all types of nerdom. We discuss research methods, Rainbow Curses, doctorates and research papers. We also talk ASO, UCI, RCS... UPS, GPS, CVS... We finish it off with talk about 2016 kits. Suck it.

The UCI World Championships were this weekend in Richmond, VA. All three of us were there, but we did not hang out together. We each had a job to do and we did it. Klaus was covering the event as media, Mike was there as a Rapha representative, SkullKrusher had a lot of beers to drink. In this episode we talk all about it and share our silly stories.
