In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Selene Yeager, a remarkable sports writer and competitive biker who started her biking journey later in life. We delved into her fascinating career, beginning with her early passion for writing and her transition from medical writing to freelancing for major publications like Women's Health and Men's Health. Selene shared how her love for biking evolved, leading her to competitive racing and eventually to writing a long-standing column for Bicycling Magazine. We explored her competitive nature and her journey into triathlons, including her incredible experience of qualifying for the Ironman World Championship in Kona on her first attempt. Selene's story is a testament to following one's passions and the doors that open as a result. The conversation then shifted to her menopause experience, which led her to co-author the book "Roar" with Dr. Stacey Sims, focusing on women-specific physiology in athletic training. This journey also inspired her to start the "Hit Play Not Pause" podcast, addressing the unique challenges active women face during menopause. Selene emphasized the importance of recognizing menopause symptoms and seeking appropriate help, advocating for lifting heavy weights as a key strategy. She also highlighted the significance of community and mindset in navigating menopause, encouraging women to see it as a new beginning rather than an end. Overall, this episode is a rich blend of personal anecdotes, professional insights, and empowering advice for women navigating the complexities of menopause while staying active and engaged in their passions.

The Summer Olympics in Paris kick off in mere hours, so how appropriate that today I'm going deep with the first Guides Gone Wild former Olympian, Nicole Freedman, now the Executive Director of NEMBA, the New England Mountain Bike Association.As you'll hear, Nicole's Team USA experience is impressive, but even more amazing to me are the decades of devotion she's applied to making bikes, and bike transportation, a bigger part of our everyday lives.Nicole was the city of Boston's first-ever 'Bike Czar'; during her tenure, she helped transform Boston from the three-times designated 'worst cycling city in the country' (according Bicycling Magazine), into a national leader in cycling accessibility and safety.After some additional stints leading both urban and rural active transportation initiatives, in 2022, Nicole took the helm of NEMBA - only the third Executive Director in that  organization's 35 year history. NEMBA is a community of mountain bikers committed to creating epic riding experiences, preserving open space, and guiding the future of mountain biking in New England through its 35 chapters across all six New England states.It's almost like we're e-biking our way through this conversation, we cover so much ground! From metro-west to Stanford to Sydney to Seattle, with multiple boomerangs back to the Boston area, all with the goal of making bikes the new normal for commuters, conservationists, and casual riders alike (no hot dog costume required!!)Links from our conversation (not chain, the other kind!):New England Mountain Bike Association (NEMBA): https://nemba.org/Elevate: https://elevatemtb.com/Guides Gone Wild talks with Sabra Davison, Little BellasVermont Mountain Bike Association: https://vmba.org/Kingdom Trails Association (VT): https://www.kingdomtrails.org/Hub on Wheels (not happening any more, likely a victim of COVID, sigh - but here's link to a Hub on Wheels FB page showing info and images from 2019): https://www.facebook.com/HubOnWheels/Toole Design GroupCo2 Inflator KitsBear Brook State Park (NH)

NOTE: This is part two of a two-part episode. To hear both parts right now and without ads, become a Patreon supporter of The War on Cars. In part two of our deep dive on John Forester and his 1976 book Effective Cycling, we take a look at the paltry data and research underpinning the alleged safety benefits of vehicular cycling and the long-term impact Forester had on cycling for transportation in the United States. Even though cities such as New York started building protected bicycle lanes in earnest in the late 2000s and early 2010s — and even though quality bike infrastructure has existed in places such as Davis, California for decades — John Forester's legacy continued well into the 21st century, with federal guides such as AASHTO's "Green Book" discouraging or even prohibiting things such as parking-protected bikeways until as recently as 2018. On top of that, many of Forester's disciples held positions atop major advocacy organizations and city bike planning departments for years, and used their influence to prevent the construction of protected bike lanes. In a lot of ways, we're still pedaling in the world John Forester created. This episode was sponsored by Bull Moose Softgoods and Cleverhood.  Listen to the episode for the latest discount codes.

When you're new to mountain biking, it can feel overwhelming between what bike to ride, what gear to get, and figuring out how the hell to safely ride down a mountain on two wheels!

NOTE: This is part one of a two-part episode. To hear both parts right now and without ads, become a Patreon supporter of The War on Cars. "Cyclists fare best when they act and are treated as drivers of vehicles." That quote is the core philosophy of John Forester, the father of vehicular cycling. Forester, who died in 2020, was a major figure in the the world of cycling advocacy and transportation policy, and his influence shaped street design and bicycle safety in the United States for decades. We take a deep dive into Forester's 1976 book, Effective Cycling. Part guidebook, part encyclopedia, part polemic, Effective Cycling explains why cyclists should not be afraid to ride not just in traffic, but as traffic. Throughout the book, Forester dismisses anyone who might be afraid of taking the lane with fast-moving cars and trucks as suffering from what he calls the "cyclist inferiority complex" and asserts that only a strict adherence to the principles of vehicular cycling can keep everyone safe. Who was John Forester? What is vehicular cycling? Why are we talking about a book that was published almost fifty years ago? It's all here in this mega episode.

In this conversation, they discuss why Kathryn celebrates her “brainiversary,” her experience with situational depression, and why the death of Robin Williams motivated her to seek help. Kathryn shares about her journey of advocating for women's inclusion in the Tour de France and the importance of gathering like-minded individuals and amplifying the voices of others to effect change. She describes how she balances celebrating progress with continuing to push for more, how she responds to resistance, and why she is still advocating for equity in professional cycling.   This is an abridged version of the interview.

Let me be upfront. This show has nothing to do with small business but everything to do with my other love: cycling. The Pandemic Bike Boom led to over 54 million American bike riders pushed cities across the country to focus on new bike lanes and bike safety! The bicycle is one of the greatest inventions in human history. It can literally transport you to places you want to go—to your school or office, to the summit of a local hilltop, to some objective in your pursuit of fitness—but it can do more than that. A bicycle can also transport you to an entirely different mindset, a place where you can embrace the unexpected and live in the moment.   People are drawn to riding for many of the same reasons—to test themselves, find themselves, and express themselves. To find some peace and beauty. To inject fun and adventure into their busy lives. I interview former Editor of Bicycling Magazine, Peter Flax, who is the author of "Live to Ride: Finding Joy and Meaning on a Bicycle". He explains the allure of cycling and why it is so important to our community (and how to protect it).

In this episode, I speak with Barre Effect Founder Nora Hameidani who shares just exactly what Barre is, her own athletic background, how she came to found Barre Effect and how Barre is not just great for cyclists but everyone who wants to build strength, balance and flexibility. We also chat through the challenges of opening a fitness studio in the middle of the global pandemic and how the studio - and its community - are thriving. To find Barre Effect online including their class schedule, visit www.barreeffectdxb.com or on IG, @barreeffectdxb. Highly highly recommend.

Ironman California features a 2.4 mile downriver swim starting in the American River and ending near the Tower Bridge in the Sacramento River, a 112 mile flat bike course and a 26.2 mile run.   The triathalon offers 55 slots to the 2023 Vinfast Ironman World Championship in October 2023 in Kailua-Kona, Hawai'i. More than 3,900 athletes are competing in this year's race. Registration for the contest is sold out. Last year's race, which anticipated roughly 3,500 participants, was canceled due to an October storm. When the 2021 event was announced, Mike Testa, president and CEO of Visit Sacramento's Sports Commission, said Ironman projected $15 million in economic impact for the region.   This year, then, will be the city's first Ironman triathlon. According to forecasts by the National Weather Service, athletes and supporters can expect highs near 74 on Sunday. The race is on Sunday, Oct. 23. The courses will run through Sacramento, from its rivers and agricultural regions to Discovery Park.

I am sorry.” By Jonathan Gault October 14, 2022   On Friday, the Athletics Integrity Unit announced the provisional suspension of two Kenyan marathoners, Diana Kipyokei and Betty Wilson Lempus, for anti-doping rule violations. Kipyokei, 28, won the 2021 Boston Marathon and was suspended for testing positive at the race for triamcinolone acetonide, a glucocorticoid that is banned in-competition. Lempus, 31, who owns a 65:47 half marathon personal best, tested positive for the same substance. Lempus was not charged for the positive test but an AIU investigation into her explanation resulted in a tampering charge for which she was suspended.   U.S. American Women Dominate the 2022 World Beer Mile Title Thirteen countries battled in Belgium for this year's Beer Mile World Championship. The most important rule? Don't throw up. OCTOBER 17, 2022 BRIAN METZLER from OUTSIDE ONLINE   American Elizabeth Laseter and Canadian Corey Bellemore put on quite a show at the Beer Mile World Classic on Saturday afternoon in Leuven, Belgium. When it comes to chugging suds and running fast 400-meter laps around a track, they were the best-in-show among the 65 runners from 13 countries participating in the de facto Beer Mile World Championships.   Running a beer mile is simple: a runner chugs a 12-ounce (or 355ml) beer, runs one lap around a track and repeats that three more times, a beer for each lap, as fast as possible – all without having it come back up, what is politely referred to as a “reversal of fortune.” The clock stops for each runner after the fourth lap is completed, unless they spew, when an additional fifth 400-meter penalty lap is required.   There are only a few basic rules to keep these speedy time trials in Belgium from looking like raucous beer-guzzling scenes choreographed to polka music at Oktoberfest in Munich. One rule is to make sure the beer in each can is fully finished. A second rule is that each beer is completed within the 9-meter “chug zone,” between the waterfall starting line and the finish line of each lap.   Laseter is a competitive runner—she ran for Johns Hopkins University in college and runs for the Bat City Track Club running club in Austin, Texas. But the 33-year-old food writer and photographer is also an exceptional beer chugger, a critical skill when it comes to running a beer mile for the podium.   Unfortunately, Laseter—as well as several other top runners in the women's race—was flagged for appearing to step outside of the “chug zone” before she had finished drinking a beer at the start of her fourth lap, thus negating what would have been a world-record 6:15 mile and a 25-second victory.   Aside from that small hiccup, those who watched the livefeed of the event—yes, the beer mile world championships was broadcast via livefeed—had to admire her high-performance execution. (Her effort broke down to roughly 25-30 seconds of chugging while running a 5:45-5:50 mile.)   Not only was Laseter given an “unofficial” finish, but so too was runner-up Laura Riches of the United Kingdom, who originally finished second in 6:30. That left American runner Melanie Pozdol, the third runner to cross the line in 6:41, as the one who was declared the winner of the women's race. (Her pace was fast, too, roughly the equivalent of a 6-minute mile with 40 seconds of chugging beers.)   What's New in the 303:   National Cycling League and Its August Colorado Race, More about the League By Bill Plock   Oct 20th, 2022–303Endurance spoke to the National Cycling League and learned a few things behind the scenes if you will. As publicly released the league's majority investors are professional athletes and entertainers and most notably all-pro Los Angeles Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey.   There will be four races across the country; South Beach in Miami, Atlanta, Denver, and Washington DC. The race in Denver will be in August (firm dates released soon). The hope is to have a venue with more than a bike race experience. Think music and other entertainment and an energetic “gotta stay and play” atmosphere. The event will work hard to have a positive impact on underserved communities and spectators. The majority of investment will come from minorities and women.   Each race will technically be an “invitational”. While sanctioned by USA Cycling, by being an invitational they can deviate from traditional scoring and offer a more entertaining race. According to our source, each lap will count. “It won't be a traditional crit where you sit back and then pounce on the lead on the last lap, it will be much more compelling than the traditional primes that are offered.”   The league will feature two in-house teams with eight men and eight women and will have a couple of racers in development (think practice squad in the NFL). These teams will race against each other and eight other teams invited to join soon. What's interesting, all teams will have to have an equal number of men and women. But, if you are a team like the DNA Cycling women's team, you can partner with a men's team and compete. If you think you have what it takes to be on the in-house team or manage a team who wants to travel and compete, here is a link to apply: https://www.nclracing.com/regis   As previously reported the league will have unprecedented prize money with the largest prize purse in U.S. crit racing history with a $1 Million up for grabs. To win their share of the purse, 10 teams (2 NCL teams and 8 invited teams) will compete in four NCL Invitational races in 2023, to be held in Miami Beach, Fla.; Atlanta, Ga.; Denver, Colo.; and Washington D.C. The races will start in March and end in September.   David Mulugheta, the NFL's most powerful agent and a co-founder of the NCL, said, “I've been in the sports industry for 15 years and this is the most exciting opportunity I've seen. Beyond the substantial number of people who bike, the ability to build the league from the ground up allows us to get the business, the values, and the ownership structure right. This is why so many professional athletes, entertainers, and people of influence are so excited about what we are building.”   The venue in Denver will be announced in the coming weeks and we are excited to be part of it and will bring you news shortly. We were told there will be a prominent Colorado cyclist on one of the in-house teams and we will be excited to talk with him/her soon!   TRANSITIONING BACK TO TRAINING AFTER INJURY By John Hansen | Oct. 14, 2022, 5:07 p.m. (ET)   An athlete holds their knee and shin as if they are experiencing leg pain.Injuries are a common and negative aspect of triathlon training and racing. They can sideline you for weeks, sometimes months. With proper recovery protocols, however, you can transition back to full training and racing. There are several considerations when returning to training in order to prevent injury relapse and make your transition back to normal training productive:   Avoid dramatic changes in volume and intensity. Allow the injury to heal completely. Stay consistent with training, avoiding long, 2-3+ week breaks. Engage in an all-body dynamic stretching routine prior to every strength and/or high intensity workout. Follow a slow warm up of at least 5-10 minutes prior to any swim, bike or run workout. Engage in yoga or an all-body static stretching and rolling, stick and/or myofascial release routine after every workout. Engage in an all-body strengthening routine 3+ times a week. Avoid lifestyle situations that may re-aggravate a recent injury – examples: aggressively participating in sports that your body is not conditioned to support, sitting or standing for prolonged periods, walking or climbing stairs in excess, lifting heavy or awkward objects, etc. Videotaping - videotaping can help you make form or technique changes once you return to full training and you don't feel any lingering effects of the injury that might alter your form. Videotaping your technique, especially while swimming or running, may uncover form flaws that may have contributed to the injury. This is valuable information for recovery and injury prevention. Beyond these general return-to-training measures, there are specific elements to consider if an injury occurs in the key phases of training: base, build and competition. Please note: these elements are dependent on how severe the injury was. More severe injuries require longer recovery periods and a more conservative approach. It also assumes that you have medical clearance and/or are finishing physical therapy but will follow at-home therapy recommendations, allowing you to return to training.   Base Phase If the injury occurs in the base phase, you stand the best chance of returning to normal training and having minimal effect on your season. Most injuries in this phase are mild to moderate and are caused by training volume, not intensity, so the severity is lessened. Key considerations when returning to training in this phase include:   Alter training surfaces and terrain – ease back into training by running on softer surfaces and limit the amount of hill training (run and bike) early in this phase. Gradually reduce but don't eliminate softer surface running and slowly increase the amount of hill training. Rebuild volume modestly – since each situation is unique, there is no specific protocol to follow, but use a 40-20 rule as a conservative guide. Start out with a training volume that is 40% of the volume you were at prior to the injury and add 20% of the new volume every 1-2 weeks. For minor injuries, this may be too conservative, and for more severe injuries, it may be too aggressive, but it can be a good starting point. In addition, since volume is the focus during this phase, reducing intensity may not be necessary. Walk-run protocols – for more severe running-specific injuries, consider a more conservative approach given the impactful nature of running. Start with 2-3 minutes of running and 1-2 minutes of walking and limit the workout to 15-20 minutes. Each week, add 1 minute of running and reduce the walk by 30 seconds. Keep at least 30 seconds of walk for every run segment. Once you reach 10 minutes of running per 30 seconds of walking, you should be able to run the entire workout. Trainer workouts – using a trainer for bike workouts adds stability and may be necessary to avoid the unpredictability of riding outdoors, especially after a severe and/or upper body injury. Strength training – general strength and/or dry land swim training can be a good transition back to training. Note: if strength training was the root cause of the injury, avoid or minimize those exercises that led to the initial injury until completely symptom-free. You may need to follow other recovery elements such as managing volume and intensity. Equipment adjustments – Make the following equipment adjustments as early as possible in this phase to allow your body to adjust to the change(s): Bike fit – Having a well-fit bike has several positive implications related to most joints in the body including wrists, neck, shoulders, hips, knees and ankles. It also affects your lower back, hamstrings, calves and Achilles. The fit may address the injury itself such as moving the cleats on your shoe and/or raising/lowering the seat if you had a knee injury. Use a professional bike fitter for this option. Running orthotics – if orthotics are recommended to you, get these as early as possible. You must adjust to your new running biomechanics before increasing training volume and intensity. Continue to see a PT for follow up and progression checks – I often recommend having periodic appointments with your PT to ensure you are maintaining proper rehabilitation protocols, especially if returning from a chronic injury. A physical therapist helps a patient use a foam roller on his calf.   Build Phase If your injury occurs in the build phase and is either mild or moderate, you should be able to return to normal training with minimal effect on your racing season. If the injury is more severe, it may affect early-season races. Some considerations regarding your racing schedule may need to be made. Key considerations when returning to training in this phase include the following:   Strength Training – heavier lifting and/or plyometric workouts, which put a lot of strain on your body, are often a part of this phase. Depending on the severity of the injury, you may need to return to lifting by using lighter weights and more reps. Moderately rebuild volume and intensity – many factors affect how aggressively you return to normal training including the severity of the injury, the length of this phase, when races are scheduled, and more. Follow the same 40-20 guide mentioned earlier if a conservative approach makes sense and the injury is more severe. Sometimes, a more aggressive approach may be required, but build volume to at least 75% of normal before adding lower levels of intensity. Equipment adjustments – Make the following equipment adjustments as early as possible in this phase to allow your body to adjust to the change(s): Bike seat position – height and forward/back – only minor adjustments based on the bike fit in the base phase. Consult with your bike fitter prior to making any adjustments. Running shoe wear and tear – due to training volume, running shoes may need to be replaced. A good rule of thumb for shoe replacement: if the shoe has 300-400 miles of use. Reduce the use of swim paddles/buoys – due to the overall volume and/or transition to higher intensity, reduce the use of paddles, even if they are used sparingly. Competition Phase If the injury occurs in the competition phase, you should be able to return to normal training. However, it will likely have a pronounced effect on your racing season depending on several factors, including the severity of the injury and how long of a race season you have scheduled. Key considerations when returning to training in this phase include the following:   Re-adjust racing schedule – it may be necessary to find races later in the season that allow you to rebuild fitness in order to meet your desired racing goals. Moderately rebuild volume and intensity – like the build phase, many factors affect how aggressively you return to normal training, including the severity of the injury, the length of this phase, when races are scheduled during this phase, and more. Follow the same principles outlined in the build phase unless a more aggressive approach can be tolerated. Don't get so aggressive that you reinjure yourself – there's often a thin line between getting reinjured and resuming normal training. Day-to-day adjustments may need to be made. This is a very vulnerable stage for reinjury due the sense of urgency races create. Equipment adjustments - equipment adjustments are only advised in extreme circumstances at this point of the season. If they must be made, they should be very minor and following the advice of your bike fitter. A productive return to training is possible when you follow a well-thought-out transition plan that is progressive in nature, not too aggressive, and incorporates the proper elements mentioned above.   DON'T GET SO AGGRESSIVE THAT YOU REINJURE YOURSELF – THERE'S OFTEN A THIN LINE BETWEEN GETTING REINJURED AND RESUMING NORMAL TRAINING. One final thought: the most vulnerable time for reinjury is when you feel normal as you return to training. Feeling normal in the early phases of recovery can be misleading since your volume and intensity are typically reduced dramatically. You may be anxious to resume normal training, but your body is often not ready. It's important as an athlete to be aware of your body and be able to read what it's telling you with respect to your transition back to training.   Video of the week: 2022 IRONMAN California Race Recon Webinar presented by RaceX       https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/article255247916.html   Upcoming Guests: Adventure Writer, Laura Killingbeck, joins us to tell her story about finding freedom through cycling, finding that space to process our lives, and her amazing endurance journey to this life changing discovery.

Selene Yeager, AKA "The Fit Chick," has written for Bicycling Magazine for decades, has ghost-written several books for athletes, and has made herself an expert on "telling people how to exercise." Her life as been spent pursuing athletic feats and sharing her expertise with those who wish to do the same.When she reached menopause, she realized that, as a woman athlete, there were scarce resources available for how to approach this stage of life. So she started the "Hit Play, Not Pause" podcast to give fellow women athletes information they desperately needed to continue to perform athletically while balancing the physical, mental, and emotional loads that come hand in hand with menopause.As it turns out, Yeager's guidance for women athletes doesn't just work for menopausal women; these life lessons apply to men approaching middle age too. By cracking open a difficult conversation and speaking plainly about it, Yeager has uncovered tools that benefit any athlete as their bodies, minds, and emotions change.Be sure to subscribe to the Slow Guy on the Fast Ride podcast!And follow us on: YouTube InstagramTwitter

Katie Meza is a San Francisco-based creative, she received her BFA from Art Center College of Design and has been profiled in Fast Company and Bicycling Magazine. Hear her inspirational story about how she was able to rekindle the relationship with her body by riding over 545 miles from SF to LA with AIDS/Life Cycle.  Katie says, "growing up I never weighed myself, but I also never felt connected to my body." Hear how Katie's cultural identity influenced her relationship with food and what opposing messages she received about her body size from her parents. Katie talks about what inspired her to get into long-distance cycling and become an athlete even when her body didn't meet the cycling industry's ideal body type.  And finally, how Katie has learned to give her body grace as it heals from a recent injury.

Alex Showerman had a secret. Growing up in Thetford Center, Alex competed on boy's teams in cross-country, running and hockey. But Alex was actually running from who she was. Like more than half of transgender or nonbinary youth, she considered suicide rather than reveal her secret. Showerman went on to graduate from St. Lawrence University and work in progressive politics. In her free time, she threw herself into mountain biking and backcountry snowboarding. She numbed the pain of hiding from her true identity by drinking. Then, in 2019, she broke her neck in a mountain biking accident and was forced to stop running. Last fall, at the age of 32, Showerman came out as a transgender woman. She feared that she would lose her job doing public relations for outdoor brands and be ostracized by the outdoor sports community. Showerman has good reason to be concerned: As part of a Republican-led backlash against transgender rights, 125 anti-trans bills have been introduced in more than half the states in the country. To Showerman's surprise, she has been hailed as a role model and symbol for inclusion. She has been profiled in Bicycling Magazine and is the subject of a recent Outside Magazine podcast. “Trans women are women from day one,” Showerman said. “I'm not gonna stop fighting anytime soon. I'm gonna keep on being visible, and I'm gonna keep on showing other trans folks that there is space for you and you can thrive here and make sure that nobody has to go through what I went through.” Showerman has some advice for trans kids: “Celebrate yourself. You're awesome.” Showerman also has advice for parents of children who are questioning their gender identity: “Trust your kid. Love them. Give them a hug,” she said. “Let them be who they want to be.”

Well, friends, this one is insanely good! It's an episode full of laughs, stories, and serious discussion and we just couldn't hang up so to speak. We started the wrap up at one point and the went on for nearly another hour. In other words, this is a long one, folks … but my guess is you won't even notice.I got to sit with one of the most genuine and honest and joyful people I know. Her mantra is "Be kind. Do good. Have as much fun as possible." A graphic designer in addition to being an elite cyclist, she is unbelievably fun to talk with as I know you'll discover and I can't wait to get into this one with you all. Her instagram is a great follow - @sarah_strumy - and here are a pair of wonderful videos on her from Wahoo Fitness and from Rapha ... Check them out … trust me.All you need to know about Sarah as a cyclist is captured  in a Bicycling Magazine article titled "These 12 Badass American Women Are Crushing Cycling Right Now". In it she was described this way: “If you're ever looking for an all-around cyclist, look no further than ultimate badass Sarah Sturm. She has raced criteriums, singlespeed cyclocross, mountain bikes and gravel grinders—most notably the Belgian Waffle Ride in California in 2019, which she won in a stacked field of pro women. After that, she jumped into the pro women's criterium at the Sea Otter Classic and took the win… also on her gravel bike. The same season, she was second in the Leadville 100 mountain bike race.”In the course of the episode we discussed creativity, changes, the zen of single speed, the benefit of doing things you suck at, the human need for challenge and so, so much more. If you don't know who my guest is before, after this you will definitely become a fan.Magnetic, fun, authentic, and thoughtful, Episode 13: Sarah Sturm ... I think you'll LOVE it!(Side Note: My smallest human made an appearance at the end.

Follow him: @hortoncollection 'I have known Brett and his wife Shelly for nearly 30 years. Take a journey on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride as I chat with Brett about the phenomenal experiences he has had, the champions of the sport who have become family friends, and the joy that collecting has brought to both he and his family. Brett Horton, The Horton Cycling Collection, San Francisco The Troubled Mind of a Passionate Collector Ever wonder what makes a collector tick? Brett, along with his wife and son Trevor, has built one of the most iconic collections of bicycle racing memorabilia in the world. Spanning from the 1880s to today, the collection includes more than 500,000 original photographs, crates of race-worn jerseys, trophies, original art, vintage posters, bicycles, and other memorabilia. Ok, but why? Was this guy not hugged as a kid? Does he really collect the sweaty, used clothing of other adult men? What went so wrong? As an amateur rider about 80 pounds ago, Brett enjoyed a decent level of success, particularly on the track (velodrome). Although he won multiple California champion bear jerseys, he knew pretty early on that there was zero chance he would ever be joining the likes of Greg LeMond, Eddy Merckx, and other champions at the pinnacle of the sport. College came next, and life went on. Nevertheless, the passion remains, and he loves bicycle racing to this day. In addition to building a pretty nice collection, Brett and his wife Shelly have also authored three books: Cycling's Golden Age, Goggles & Dust, and Shoulder to Shoulder. For more than 20 years, items from their collection have been shown around the globe, most notable being the anchor for the epic 100 th Anniversary Tour de France Exhibition at the historic Hôtel de Ville in Paris. Fans of the sport will find Horton Collection photographs and other memorabilia featured in nearly every issue of Peloton Magazine, and images from the collection have graced more than 30 magazine covers. The Horton Collection Facebook page and website embrace a loyal global following with new pictures and stories presented each day. Keep an eye out for the feature story about the Horton Collection in the upcoming issue of the world's largest cycling periodical, Bicycling Magazine.

Twenty-one people riding bicycles have been killed this year on the streets of New York City. That's more than double the number of bike fatalities in all of 2018. In early July, after a terrible week in which three people on bicycles were killed in quick succession, more than a thousand demonstrators showed up in Lower Manhattan's Washington Square Park for a “Die-In” to demand that officials take more aggressive action to make streets safe. In this episode, we hear from Die-In participants and Doug, Sarah and Aaron talk about advocacy, activism and change-making. Is it better to be polite and work within the system or disobedient and disruptive? Who in city government should be the target of these urgent calls to action, the politicians or the police? What can we learn from the work of other grassroots social and political movements throughout history? And do NYPD bicycle cops ever actually ride their bikes or do they only use them as crowd control barricades? Support The War on Cars on Patreon and receive stickers, T-shirts, exclusive access to special audio content and more.

Howdy Joyriders! On this episode of The Joyride, I chat with the one and only Ayesha McGowan, who you may also know as A Quick Brown Fox. You may remember her name first mentioned by guest Monica Garrison, Founder of Black Girls Do Bike, back on episode #8 of the Joyride. Ayesha discovered competitive cycling in 2014 and has since been on a mission to become the first professional female african american road cyclist. Ayesha has been featured in Bicycling Magazine, Bicycle Times, BBC World, and Vice Sports. In other news, I want to give a quick shout out to Brock and Aaron of the Sprocket Podcast who kindly hosted me as a guest on their show last week. We talked about GirlEatsBike, Portland, and of course women on bikes. I had a lot of fun chatting with them and getting a behind-the-scenes look at how other podcasters make stuff happen. Link to that right here! I'm so excited about this show, folks. I've been following Ayesha for a while and am totally stoked to get to hear about her journey. On this episode of the Joyride we'll hear about Ayesha's evolution from commuting into advocacy and then competitive racing, using the bike to conquer your fears. inception of A Quick Brown Fox, as well as the Do Better Together rides, and why building community is so important. Here are a list of links to stuff discussed in this episode in no particular order: ally cats goldsprints WE bike NYC Kissena Velodrome Evie Stevens / Central Park  Ride Across Wisconsin Jens Voigt Skratch Labs And of course, Michael and Toby! This was rad. Big thanks to Ayesha for hanging out and sharing the bike love with us! ASK AYESHA here, or connect with her on the Instagram, or Twitter. Also, check out Ayesha co-hosting Fix It Black Jesus, a podcast which takes an unapologetic look at race and politics in today's America. Get woke. Friends, you know I believe in the transformative power of the bike, in our personal lives, our communities, and the world at large. I would be super grateful if you'd leave a rating or review in iTunes, Stitcher, or via whatever method you listen. It helps more gals find the show, and I believe the more stories we share, the more women who ride, we make this world - both our internal and external worlds - better with every revolution. Ratings and reviews help with that, but nothing is better than a personal referral, it'd be rad if you would share the show with even just one woman who you think might dig it. Remember, life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage. Keep moving forward and until next time I hope you enjoy the ride. Forever Forward, ~C
