Ep 246 - Mailbag! 16.04.2019

It's a good old fashioned Mailbag this week! And while it might seem like we are gaslighting you about Paris-Roubaix even happening, we have a reasonable excuse.

Ep 245 - A Ride You Never Forget 09.04.2019

Ep 241 - El Paso Nights 05.03.2019

This week we took a wrong turn on Desolation Street, and when we pulled a podcast U-turn, we were still on Desolation Street. Thankfully, we were eventually able to hit the normal side streets and back alleys that this pod is known for, and got outta town!  The Slow Ride is supported by Health IQ! Check out healthiq.com/wap to learn how you can save actual real money on your life insurance. The po...

Ep 240 - The Curious Case Of The Foam Party Wallet 26.02.2019

Ep 238 - Angering Canadians 13.02.2019

This week The Doctor is in. Tim tells tales of rain and flats in central Florida, and the strange experience of making the front group. It's BIKE JUMBLE SEASON! Deals are made, and kids are possibly grifted. We continue our podcast mission to keep the Pro peloton informed, as we add a new corner to our increasingly complex Slow Ride Green Room, with the easy to say MVDP MVP Teammate Corner, or is...

Ep 237 - Mitch Docker 06.02.2019

This week we are joined on the poddy by MITCH DOCKER! We have a great chat with Mitch about Life in the Peloton, who's the current boss, how to pee in the pack, and of course, we draft some world tour jerseys in the World Tour Jersey Draft Corner. Do we rig the draft in our favor? Maybe. Is Mitch a good sport? Yes! Is his season built around winning 70 kilos of maple syrup? Definitely. This poddy...

Ep 236 - Cyclocross Radio with Bill Schieken 30.01.2019

We are one week out from the Biggest Sporting Event of the year;  Cyclocross Worlds. With Tim away driving across the frozen tundra of mid-America, we have special guest Bill Schieken of Cyclocross Radio to bring some elite level cyclocross knowledge to the pod. Bill both nails all the rider name pronunciations, and he knows what he's talking about, so it's a radical change for our show. As a fina...

Ep 235 - Rotten Tomatoes 24.01.2019

This week we talked cross grass crits, Aussie training races, and World Tour raps. And that's just pro cycling. Tim tells you all about the world famous Doc Hollywood, and how to know when you're really, really, in the country. Matt saw some new cars, and Spencer lets all the barista's know his marshmallow wants. We are also supported by Grimpeur Bros. Specialty Coffee! Custom WAP roast  "The Full...

Ep 234 - Disrupting Kits 16.01.2019

This week Tim and Spencer disrupt the cyclocross world, dropping a previously unconsidered WVA bombshell! Then the disruption continues with the initial reactions to the newest World Tour kit. Finally some listener emails disrupt our thoughts on Mt. Slowmore... or do they? We are also supported by Grimpeur Bros. Specialty Coffee! Custom WAP roast  "The Full Schleck"  is available now, and  "Cycloc...

Ep 233 - Mount Slowmore 08.01.2019

2019 is here, and; New Year, New Pod! We've got 2019 goals, you guys. Well, most of us do. This week, we shape our Slow Ride national monument, and we discover that we are all Lars Boom.

Custom WAP roast  "The Full Schleck"  is available now, and  "Cyclocross Friends"  espresso wil...

Ep 232 - End Of An Era 01.01.2019

It isn't the way we wanted to end 2018, but unfortunately you can't always get what you want. (However, you can sometimes select a team for the Slow Ride Podcast Mt. Rushmore). This week (sadly, without LittleGuy) we, yet again, solved all of cycling's most pressing problems, namely M. Van der Poel. We also go through a slew of listener emails, tweets, and fashion statements. Oh, and we found out...

Ep 231 - When You Come At The Queen 19.12.2018

This week we recap US Cyclocross nationals, breakdown the Team Sky "situation", and of course discuss some incredible listener emails. This week we are brought to you by Mapleworks Coaching, visit mapleworkscoaching.com/pod for a free 30 minute call/consult. We are also supported by Grimpeur Bros. Specialty Coffee! Custom WAP roast  "The Full Schleck"  is available now, and  "Cyclocross Friends"  ...

Ep 230 - December's Biggest Event 11.12.2018

This week Spencer and LittleGuy are given the keys to the pod and manage to not completely drive it off a cliff. Mostly.  We talk USA Cyclocross Nationals, and give our rock solid predictions, so all you Euro-based listeners can take this advice to the bookies. We also get deep into some ethical questions based off this article in Bicycling Magazine. We are super excited about our new sponsor,  Po...

Ep 229 - World Tour Review Draft Corner 05.12.2018

This week on the pod we give a deserved shout to Uncle Phil and begin the campaign to get Spencer in a sleeveless jersey. We throw in a little bit of cyclocross news and unleash an amazing Top Corner Draft Corner in which Little Guy builds his own axis of evil! Sorry about LG's sound quality, we had to use his backup file... it's a long story. We are also supported by Grimpeur Bros. Specialty Coff...

Ep 228 - Million Dollar Tim 28.11.2018

This week we had a Kevin Costner Moment (tm), as Tim tried to reinvent himself.

Check them out, hear our experiences with them, and save yourself 20% with our code: SLOWRIDE We are also supported by Grimpeur B...
