The Outer Line Podcast host Steve Brunner sits down with legends of the sport to discuss their past, present, and future in the sport.
Cycling has always been a part of Christian Vande Velde's life. From current color commentary on NBC's broadcast of top professional race to his storied career which crested with 4th place in the 2008 Tour de France to his swan song as race champion of the USA Pro Challenge (aka Tour of Colorado) in 2013. Brought up in a household of cyclists, led by his father John, a two-time Olympian, Christian talks about his lineage, fighting through a rash of crash-related injuries at inopportune times to life inside the commentary booth and his unique relationship with former colleague Paul Sherwen. For both the hardcore fan or the novice, Vande Velde (aka "CVV") tells plenty of engaging and earnest stories from his life on and off the bike. Sign up for the newsletter
