The Zero Lemon Podcast

I've been using Schwalbe tires for years. They were the first brand I knew off to do a road tubeless tire and back when I started cycling it just made sense in my head. I'm lucky that they have sponsored me for a while now! Schwalbe have just released some new tires, including the NEW G-One Overland, which we talk about in this episode.

I met Alex a couple of weeks back and we went for a gravel ride in The New Forest, exploring some of the local trails. One week later we recorded a podcast about Vitus Bikes, a brand who have been making bikes since the 1970s.

Welcome to destination next, a monthly podcast hosted by me, Chris Hall and brought to you by STYRKR.

 

Ahead of the Pan Celtic Race starting next week, Chris catches up with legendary welshman and race organiser Matt Ryan.

This podcast will serve as a platform to share the highs and lows of those at the forefront of endurance sport. 

 

We celebrate stories from across the globe of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Personal missions achieved without global recognition or glory. Feats of suffering without the fanfare.

 

STYRKR is committed to giving everyday athletes and professionals alike the strength to go further.

 

We understand we are one small part of an athlete’s arsenal. Going beyond your limits is a test of mind, body, and soul. Let’s celebrate the suffering alongside some trusted experts.

On the 16th May until the 22nd May, I attempted to cycle 7 Everests, one every day of the week to raise awareness and funds for the incredible work Movember carry out in supporting mental health. In this podcast episode we get the band back together so to speak. I'm joined by Jimmi and Emily from Attacus, Andy (who created the film) and Jack (who took the photos.) 

To donate to Movember head to:  https://uk.movember.com/mospace/6408721

A massive thank you to Shimano for funding the film.

I first met Adam when we cycled together during my 107TDF challenge. He works as a mobile mechanic with his company, Cycle Oath. We since then became mates and cycled together at points during Badlands 2021. Adam early this year headed out to Rwanda to tackle The Race Around Rwanda, a race that has been high on my list to try out. I hope you enjoy this one!

One of my favourite memories of Darren was at the National 24 hour TT in 2019 where he was the person who grabbed my bike at the end whilst I collapsed to the floor post race. Darren is one of the most accomplished ultra distance cyclists I know having tackled The TCR, TransAm Bike Race, Paris Brest Paris and London Edinburgh London to name a few. He is also someone who doesn't like to limit himself to one category and can be found racing in the Masters Crits in London. Darren is also the Co-Founder at Velomatch, a digital cycling marketplace which unbundles advising from selling. By disrupting the market in this way we offer more choice, better advice and greater convenience.

The first time I met Luke, he made me an incredible sandwich, featuring fantastic sourdough, cheese, apple and Outdoor Provisions' Almond, Date and Sea Salt Nut Butter. I still vouch for it being one of the best Sandwiches I have ever eaten. 

Luke founded Outdoor Provisions with Christian 3 years back now, whilst out on a bike-packing trip and they have been slowly and steadily growing from their base in Manchester. 

Between them they have also created the Second City Divide ride, a bike-packing route between Glasgow and Manchester. You can read more about it here: https://www.secondcitydivide.cc/

LASTLY, they are very kindly offering listeners 20% off their order! Head to https://outdoorprovisions.co.uk/ and use the code 'ZEROLEMON' (valid for 1 month from this episode going live)

I first met Nick on a trip to Mallorca where we just clicked. I have been wanting to do a podcast with Nick for some time to talk about his past, as a runner potentially heading to the Olympics to represent The USA in the marathon distance, to his transition to shoe design and now cycling. Enjoy!
