LA is a vibe: from wherever you see it, it looks easy, stylish, chilled, just cool. And riding looks the same, the internet is full of stories of group rides where everything looks possible and easy, in LA, like having Mathieu Van Der Poel on the city group ride and making no fuss with it. That's why I wanted to know more about it, and I had the fortune to interview Ken and Adric, two big personalities of riding in LA, and, people, they confirmed all I thought, with ease.

If you know, you know: Eddy Merckx and his story have always had huge traction for my cycling passion. So, having the opportunity to talk with the Marketing Manager of the brand that bears his name is just incredible.

In this episode of the BroomWagon Podcast 🚌 Stefano talked with Pieter Vanheeswijck about Eddy Merckx bikes but also about the campaigns of the brand, bike painting, new project, sustainability and creativity.

I finally made it to the most interesting discipline of the whole Cyclocross, the Single Speed version of it. I got the opportunity and honour to talk with Chelli and Renee 2 of the 4 disorganizers of the Single Speed Cyclo Cross World Champions 2025, happening in Minneapolis, and now you can listen to it!

Feedback is synonymous with high-quality stands and training bike gear. Because it is no mystery that wherever you go on road, MTB and CX races, you will always spot that at least half of the mechanics use the unmistakable red stand.

I had a talk with Doug, founder and CEO of the company, to discuss the past, future and present of the brand, and of course, there were a lot of CX and sustainability chats.

Enjoy.

Raphael is an awesome person who one day decided that cycling would change his life and then he decided to bring this joy to life by organising many other events around his values. He created Orbit 360 a Cycling community that sees cycling as inclusion, sustainability, and fun and that's what we talked about in this episode of the podcast.
