The Slow Ride: A Cycling Podcast

This weeks episode is a special one. We've filled it full of pro tips and life lessons for beginners and veterans alike! Join us on a smooth silky journey into the world of cycling. But not the boring parts. *** On the show: OMFG a review of the Podcast! Are we really Lance Armstrong haters? Chris Boardman didn't wear a helmet! Do we care? Jens Voigt Hour Record Loser "Pro Only" Sections of Cycloc...

Welcome to episode 30! Defying conventional wisdom, we are back this week with some discussion of actual bike racing related topics! We also talk facial hair, debate what's ruining cycling this week, as well as provide some useful tips for Yahoo users. It's a great episode, you will love it or your money back.

This week our trio of hosts take on the tough questions in cycling, and learn a little something about each other in the process. This week features Reader Mail, Yahoo Answers!, titanium bicycles, something about USA Cycling none of us understand, and our first listener contest!

On this weeks podcast we do a whole lot of Search Engine Optimization by discussing things like Klein bicycles, vintage cars, Oleg Tinkov, Leadville 100, our best race travel tips, and tacos. Hmmm. Oh, and FATBIKES! Now I'm sure we will just shoot up the rankings.

Welcome to the latest episode of The Slow Ride Podcast! This week we go all TMZ on the world of cycling and let you know what you can do to stay ahead of the curve, what's hot (and what's not), and as always- what really grinds our gears. Listen in! Topics of discussion: World Champion Kit choices, we tell you the fashion do's and don'ts. Rumor Mill: Kwiakowski's World Stripe kits are just Cav lef...

After a week off for a needed break, (definitely not because we forgot to hit record on the podcasting machine last week), and better than ever! Or possibly the same as ever. Anyway, we are back to talk about bikes and bike stuff that regular people care about! Topics include: Proper bartape, gravel grinding, heckling etiquette, CYCLOCROSSZOMG, Trek CXC, The Hour Record, and soooooo much more.

This episode features some, uh, "healthy debate" about cycling and cycling culture. Our hosts accuse one another of being wrong, flip-flopping, and of not deserving it! Watch out!

This week we make or break all the myths surrounding cycling culture! Well, maybe not ALL of them, but definitely the biggest CX myths you've heard, and we also shatter some myths about bike messengers. We tried out a new format for the show too.

Hello and welcome to The Slow Ride Podcast! This week on the show, Tim talks aircraft carriers and basks in his own glory, LittleGuy discusses French movies and Japanese pedals, and Spencer drones on about heckling and Louisville.

Send in the choppers! The season is getting real! Welcome to the 22nd episode of the podcast, and thanks to all of you that made your way here through some random and strange google search but decided to stick around. We appreciate it.

Hot off the presses, and our hosts are all a bit discombobulated this week. Spencer is destroyed from doing bicycle acrobatics all weekend, Tim had his famous pain face on in south florida, and Littleguy's story just doesn't add up.

Thanks for joining us for the 20th episode of The Slow Ride Podcast! This week is the highly controversial #Controversy Episode in which we discuss and dissect some of the more controversial topic in cycling today.

This week we (finally) wrap up the Tour Of France coverage, and look back at the best and worst moments of the race. We will also check in on the final result of our Fantasy League, and the highest placed among our hosts has prepared statements...

This week we continue to drone on about the world’s biggest bike race, but we spice things up a bit with talk of campers, bowel movements, Sagan's fashion, and French cycling! We also get down to brass tacks about our Velogames League

As we move into the second week of Le Tour, The Slow Ride Podcast tackles some of the biggest moments of drama from the first stages of the race with our vertically compliant (yet laterally stiff!) brand of analysis.

This week is all about the greatest show on earth, the Tour Of France! Don't worry, we will get back to talk of gravel grinding soon enough, but for now we go in-depth with analysis on the most meaningful aspects of the TdF.

The tour is coming! In this episode we analyze the best of the week and worst of the week in cycling, and we break down everything you need to know about the favorites in our amazingly insightful TdF preview.

The FIFA World Cup has arrived and the similarities to cycling are numerous. The shady governing organization, the whining Italian National Team, the haircuts and the complete absence of Scandinavian super powers.

Pull out the inhaler, because you are going to need help to keep up. This week we take a look at bike lanes, inhalers, the Grey Wolf, domestic pro bike racing (it exists), and what is the deal with amateur bike racers?

The twelfth episode of the Slow Ride podcast barely mentions professional bike racing, and focuses on everything that is awesome about folding bikes, sidewalk surfing and the stain that is local sandbaggery.

Let's be honest. We have all done stupid things on bicycles. Lot's of times you don't want anyone to know, but all too often you are surrounded by your closest friends who will never let you forget. In other news, Spencer won the Giro Fantasy contest.

As summer heats up and the world of bikes is brighter than ever. The Super Rookie is back delivering packages and Spencer is off to Mexico City to race at the Messenger World Championships. The Little Guy is an actual messenger and he's not impressed.

The Giro Fantasy League is heating up, Little Guy raced with 1300 people at a free gravel road race and Tim loves it when other people make embarrassing mistakes, but all of that pails in comparison to when the worst car company for cyclists is named.

The best and the worst in the week of cycling are covered with extra attention paid to Spencer's propensity to be the worst person around and Tim's mancrush on disgraced amateur cyclists. We then have a meta-conversation about Merckx.

The Tour of California is coming, but we don't care. The Giro is here and it is all the rage. Our #protip of the week is to always ride your bike with someone else so you have a witness of the awesomeness.
