EPISODE 108 - The Future of Gravel w/ Former World Tour rider Chad Haga What up party people. Just a quick intro here because I only have 2min before I have to log into an 8hr design review summit sooo here it goes. We've got former World Tour rider, Chad Haga, on the show this week to talk about his experience transitioning into the pro gravel scene this season, including his 2nd place finish at Unbound after spending all day in the breakaway with Lachlan Morton. Tune in to hear some of his thoughts on the US vs International gravel scene, what he predicts gravel will look like in the future, and even his thoughts on tires. Speaking of tires, while we don't have a tire sponsor for the show we do have some great partners that are tire adjacent such as Silca and their Ultimate Tubeless Sealant (code bonkbrosbikewash for 15% off), Dynamic Cyclist which will help you stay nimble and sharp on the bike so you can keep it rubber side down (code BONKBROS for 10% off their fitness plans), and Bolt Skin and Shave to help you remove not only those unnecessary leg hairs but also those pesky hairs from your Cont Race Kings (code BONKBROS15 for 15% off).

He talks about the differences between European and American gravel racing, including team tactics and the importance of positioning. Chad also shares his thoughts on using aerobars in gravel racing and the challenges of racing as a team in a solo-focused sport. The conversation includes some lighthearted banter about bike brands and equipment choices. Chad discusses his experience racing the Rift and his tire choice for the race. He also talks about his setup for the Migration gravel race and the challenges of racing on rough terrain. The conversation shifts to the changing landscape of professional cycling, with younger riders entering the gravel scene and the transition from road racing to gravel. Chad expresses his satisfaction with racing gravel and the freedom it offers. The discussion touches on recovery between races and the demands of the gravel season. The conversation concludes with a lighthearted discussion about VO2 max and the perception of age in professional cycling. The conversation in this segment starts with a discussion about VO2 max tests and the results that Chad and Drew received. They joke about their VO2 max scores and how they compare to each other. The conversation then transitions to a discussion about the future of gravel racing in the US, including the potential for teams to become more involved. They also talk about the UCI's involvement in gravel racing and the popularity of longer events. The conversation concludes with listener questions about tire width preferences and how long the Bonk Bros could hold Tadej Pogacar's wheel up a climb. In this final part of the conversation, the hosts discuss crank arm length and its impact on performance and comfort. Dylan shares that he switched to 165mm cranks on all his bikes to reduce knee pain and improve his range of motion. Chad mentions that he is considering switching to 170mm cranks on his road and gravel bikes for fit reasons. They also touch on the topic of shorter cranks benefiting time trialists by allowing them to maintain a more aero position. The hosts conclude the conversation by discussing upcoming races and plans. Keywords Chad Haga, road racing, gravel racing, Unbound Gravel, European racing, American racing, team tactics, positioning, aerobars, bike brands, equipment choices, gravel racing, tire choice, race setup, professional cycling, younger riders, road racing, gravel season, recovery, VO2 max, VO2 max, tests, results, gravel racing, future, teams, UCI, longer events, tire width, Tadej Pogacar, climb, crank arm length, performance, comfort, knee pain, range of motion, fit, time trialists, races Takeaways Gravel racing in Europe often involves team tactics and cooperation, while American gravel racing is more individual-focused. The Unbound Gravel race is known for its deep field and tactical racing. Chad Haga prefers not to use aerobars in gravel racing due to the nature of the terrain and the need for control. Team dynamics in gravel racing can be challenging, but having a reliable teammate can make a difference. Equipment choices, such as bike brands and clothing, can vary between regions and races. Tire choice is crucial for gravel racing, with riders opting for wider and more durable tires to handle rough terrain. The gravel racing scene is attracting younger riders who see it as a viable career option, leading to increased competition. Chad enjoys the freedom and fun of racing gravel and does not miss road racing. Recovery between races is manageable for Chad, with most races being long aerobic efforts. VO2 max testing is not always a reliable indicator of performance, and experience and body of work can be more important in evaluating a rider's abilities. VO2 max tests can provide interesting and sometimes surprising results Gravel racing in the US is likely to continue growing, with the potential for more team involvement The UCI's involvement in gravel racing is limited, and most major gravel races in the US are not sanctioned Tire width preferences vary among riders, but wider tires are generally considered faster The Bonk Bros speculate on how long they could hold Tadej Pogacar's wheel up a climb Switching to shorter crank arms can help reduce knee pain and improve range of motion. Shorter cranks may benefit time trialists by allowing them to maintain a more aero position. Crank arm length does not significantly impact power output. Chad is considering switching to 170mm cranks on his road and gravel bikes for fit reasons. The hosts discuss upcoming races and plans.

"Drew, your VO2 max is eight higher than Chad's and Chad smoked you at unbound. Wasn't even close." "I largely see it just continuing the way it's been going as far as the events that are on offer." "If I'm training a lot, like probably 30 plus hour weeks, I can get some knee pain. And when you have shorter cranks, you do a little bit smaller range of motion." "The research seems to suggest that crank length doesn't impact power output. It doesn't really matter what the length of your crank is." "I don't know if there's a need for me to go to 160, but apparently SRAM is going to start doing 160mm cranks."

Upcoming races and events provide opportunities for cyclists to challenge themselves and compete. Personal health issues, such as tonsil removal surgery, can affect an athlete's training and racing schedule. Mountain bike tires are being considered as a faster option for gravel racing. Pacing strategies play a crucial role in endurance races like Crusher in the Tushar and Leadville. The use of drop bars in gravel racing is a topic of debate, with some riders finding them advantageous for aerodynamics and positioning. There is a potential for more gravel races on the East Coast, offering diverse terrain and race experiences. Mark Cavendish's win at the Tour de France is a notable achievement at the age of 39. Mark Cavendish's comeback and win in the Tour de France is a remarkable story The gravel stage in the Tour de France presented unique challenges for the riders Riders competing on aero bars in a local gravel race and winning significant prize money is impressive The hosts express their desire to find races with large prize purses and little competition   Titles Dylan Quits YouTube Strava KOMs and Cheating The Quest for a Coveted Strava KOM Looking Ahead: Upcoming Races and Challenges Pacing Strategies for Endurance Races The Debate on Drop Bars in Gravel Racing Mark Cavendish's Comeback and Tour de France Win Challenges of the Gravel Stage in the Tour de France   Sound Bites "Scott, you're so considerate, man." "Uh, I quit. I quit YouTube." "More than likely what would happen is that I would lose places in the standing if Crusher did actually happen because I'm set." "I had the 276 KOM, which is probably the most coveted KOM in the Brevard area." "He did the first half with a time trial bike, and then switched bikes to his road bike for the second half where it gets steeper." "I think that for my standings in the Grand Prix, this is actually better for me." "People are finally realizing that mountain bike tires are faster for gravel racing." "I've been right all along but no one cares until somebody fast does it." "If I was able to climb with the front group, then I might just keep my mountain bike set up as a normal mountain bike without drop bars." "Still historical? Come on. Still gotta hype it. You know Cav is hyping it." "Just because it happened last week doesn't mean we can't talk about it."

Chad Haga spent eight years in the WorldTour on Team DSM (formerly known as Giant-Shimano and Sunweb). During that time, he raced in 12 Grand Tours including the Tour de France, six Giro d'Italias (where he won a stage in 2019), and four Vuelta a Españas. In 2022, he stepped back from the WorldTour to join the ProTeam Human Powered Health. Although he's spent more than a decade in Europe, he was born and raised in McKinney, Texas and didn't start racing seriously until he was finishing up his Mechanical Engineering degree at Texas A&M, a relatively late start that he says has been a benefit in more ways than one. In this conversation, Chad talks to Payson about his decision to switch from the WorldTour to a ProTeam after eight successful years, how his life as a professional racer has transformed since he had children, and how he's reconnecting with mountain biking in a big way. They also talk about how he plans to use his mechanical engineering degree after he retires from professional racing, the new races he's planning to do in the coming season, and how he and his family have come to feel at home in Spain over the past few years. Instagram: @theadventurestache

— “The focus of the Paleo Diet is not on ratios, but on eating the foods we evolved to eat. The ratio is a by-product.” Valeria Teles interviews Trevor Connor — the owner of Paleo Diet, CEO of Fast Talk Laboratories, Writer, and Podcaster. Trevor Connor is the CEO of The Paleo Diet, LLC. He was Dr. Loren Cordain's final graduate student at Colorado State University, where his research focused on the effects of a Paleo-style diet on autoimmune conditions. Working with Dr. Cordain, his pilot study included close to 60 volunteers with diverse conditions ranging from Crohn's disease to multiple sclerosis to Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Trevor comes from a varied background. After graduating from Cornell University in 1995 he started his career in website development. He soon followed his passion and became a semi-professional cyclist, training at the Canadian National Center in British Columbia where he became a coach and team manager. He later managed the Team Rio Grande cycling team—the top-ranked amateur team in America whose alumni include top-five Tour de France finisher Tejay van Garderen and Giro d'Italia stage winner Chad Haga. Initially, Trevor studied exercise physiology and nutrition to support his own training and to improve his coaching. At 38, he decided it was time to hang up the bike; he moved to Colorado to get his masters degree in bioenergetics and nutrition. Trevor had studied traditional sports nutrition for over a decade, and when he took Dr. Cordain's class in 2009, he was highly skeptical of the Paleo Diet concept. But after experimenting with the diet, Trevor was able to return to the professional cycling ranks at 40, finishing in the top five in several races and establishing himself as the top ranked 40-plus rider in the country for several years running. In addition to his role as CEO, Trevor writes the "Coach's Corner" section for the international cycling magazine VeloNews and co-hosts the popular endurance sports science podcast Fast Talk. Trevor is also CEO of Fast Talk Laboratories, LLC, a business dedicated to the science of endurance sports.

In this podcast, we'll hear from Carapaz's directeur sportif Max Sciandri and his teammate Mikel Landa, who just missed out on the podium. We'll also here from third place finisher Primoz Roglic, Chad Haga, who won the final time trial, and EF Education First's Joe Dombrowski, who finished 12thoverall.

In het Amfitheater van Verona kwam vandaag de 102e Giro d'Italia ten einde. De eindzege van Richard Carapaz kwam niet meer in gevaar - dus heel Ecuador huilt roze tranen van vreugde. Bij ons overheersten vooral Wat-Als-vragen. Wát als Roglic en Nibali Ritchie níet zoveel gratis tijd hadden gegund, in de rit naar Lago Serrù? Wat als Salvatore Puccio níet achterom had gekeken, in rit 4 - en Tom Dumoulin gewoon nog had meegefietst in week 2 en 3? Maar ja, as is verbrande turf - en weten zullen we het nooit. Wat we wel weten - is dat Chad Haga niet alleen goede koffie kan zetten, maar ook een aardig eindje kan tijdrijden. Wat heet. Op de slotdag van de Giro redde hij de meubelen voor het geplaagde Team Sunweb - en boekte hij zijn eerste profzege OOIT.In de Grote Nabeschouwing bespreken we de ups, de downs, de blunders en de meesterzetten in deze Giro. Conclusie: we hebben ons - ondanks de #diroditalia - echt te weinig vermaakt.Deze Rode Lantaarn wordt gepresenteerd door Willem Dudok, Jonne Seriese en Tim de Gier - en wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door Scorito, Canyon*, Hetiskoers.nl en Dag en Nacht Media.

June 7 | In this episode of The Cycling Podcast, Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe discuss the Tour de France's innovative Formula 1-style grid start to the 65-kilometre long 17th stage in the Pyrenees. How will it work? Will the riders embrace the change or try to neutralise its effects and what does it say about the Tour's desire to make mountain stages unmissable for television viewers? Daniel reports from the Critérium du Dauphiné where a lot of riders are honing their form ahead of the Tour. And we take a brief look back at the Giro d'Italia and ask the four American riders – Ben King, Joe Dombrowski, Chad Haga and Nate Brown – how much they know about Andy Hampsten's performance on the snow-covered Gavia which set him up to win the pink jersey 30 years ago.

A dramatic day on the Giro d’Italia saw Tom Dumoulin slash Simon Yates’ overall lead in half to set up a thrilling final two days in the mountains. It was only in the last 2km, on the long climb to Prato Nevoso, that Yates showed his first sign of weakness in almost three weeks. When Dumoulin marked a late attack by Chris Froome, Yates could not follow. By the finish he had held on to the pink jersey by just 28 seconds. Richard Moore and Daniel Friebe report from the summit of the climb, where they spoke to Dumoulin and to Froome’s teammates Kenny Ellissonde and David de la Cruz. We also hear from Dumoulin’s teammate Chad Haga, from Austrian rider Patrick Konrad and Michael Mørkøv, who was in the day’s break and helped his Quick-Step teammate Max Schachmann win the stage.
