Putting paid to the old adage "better late than never", a barely-apologetic Gary turns up on a Monday night to talk about Demi Vollering's million Euro decent proposal, CX Worlds, UAE Women Tour, and asks which celebrity hangers on do we need to see at bike races to help garner new interest in professional cycling? Drop us a line at cyclinglegendspodcast@gmail.com You can get tickets for Chris Sidwells' Ti Raleigh event with Sid Barras on 20 March at Chevin Cycles in Otley, W. Yorkshire.

Charlotte's Airline mountain bike park might have sat somewhat dormant for a few years before being publicly open, and there's a good story behind it. Listen along as Will Washam from the Tarheel Trailblazers fills us in on the behind scenes battles to bring a new bike park along with a slew of volunteers while Mangler goes for a guided tour from Craig and Patrick. There's a lot to cover in this episode from Berm Park, Roamfest, CX Worlds, WWE Royal Rumble and to an open comment period on a National Park project. Dive in with your favorite listening tool. If you ever left the mountains to go to Charlotte, to get away from the Charlotteans then go ahead and click subscribe! the open commenting period on the natural gas pipeline is open till feb 5, 2022 https://parkplanning.nps.gov/document.cfm?parkID=355&projectID=99118&documentID=117374
Does suffering in the weather truly make you better? To cyclists in warmer climates TRULY benefit? All that, along with CX Worlds recap, racing is back, and, of course, status on Jack's inability to find a carbon fiber bike with eyelets for fenders.
"It was like the big final or championship game of the season, the most accurate comparison is to the 4x4 Relay of a Track Meet: everyone has been there for 6 hours, everyone is drained and slap-happy from their own events. But should the meet come down to the wire, there is ferocious pressure and excitement watching the sprinters go the distance, or even the middle-distance runners show their speed. So it is with no disrespect at all to the earlier phenomenal races when I say there was a certain hype, aura, tension, and buildup to the Men's Elite Cyclocross World Title."
"So coming into the finishing straight of the third lap, Lucinda Brand was visibly frustrated and gestured to Marianne Vos to come through and do a turn to at least make the race somewhat even. But Marianne Vos…….was taking a drink FROM HER WATERBOTTLE."
"Yes, this title is beyond cliché and perhaps almost lazy. But if you have watched men's cyclocross at all for the past 8 seasons, can you blame me at all for picking such a title? Are not the men's elite riders themselves thinking of this race in such terms?"

"777's Annemarie Worst, second at Worlds last year, has tested positive for Covid and is out. Ever consistent Denise Betsema is out with some non-Covid illness and will no longer be making the trip to the US. Many more minor riders are also out, but the race is already shaping up to be a duel between the only two riders to have taken prestigious wins in the last few months."
"But none of this deterred the Belgians from getting out to the usual ferocious start. In fact, the start was more ferocious than I am accustomed: for a strange reason. The dominant generation of Belgians I was watching was the generation above the one I grew up with......Thus, to watch the replay of these 2013 World Championships, I felt in every respect like a 2nd Grader watching the big-and-strong 8th Graders above me. This older generation of Belgians looked physically bigger, looked incredibly more talented and driven, looked like untouchable masters."
This week I break down Tom Pidcock's decision to travel to the USA for the upcoming Cyclocross World Championships, Wout van Aert's altered spring schedule, QuickStep's decision to bench Mark Cavendish and take Fabio Jakobsen to the 2022 Tour de Frane and touch on the newly released 2022 BTP NET Ratings.

THEN! a visit from the only Elite American Man to compete in Cyclocross Worlds in 2021, Curtis White. Curtis finished top 20 at CX Worlds, something that is rare for the US Men, and stops by to talk about it as well as tell us about his new podcast. Then of course a couple of viewer questions!!

We hop in to a blow by blow review of the race and then take a look at where this duel belongs in the pantheon of showdowns between these archrivals. Additionally, I make the claim to put this rivalry in the stratosphere of the greatest rivalry.
We had the chance to get in a call with the Canadian U23 Women’s Champion, Sidney McGill, and chat about her 2-month long European trip, the last couple races, and the upcoming World Championships.
So much to cover in a scant time. Scant? Who uses that word anymore?
For Episode 217 we had the opportunity to chat with four members of the USA Cycling Cyclocross World Championships team who will be competing at Worlds in Oostende on January 30 and 31: Clara Honsinger, Becca Fahringer, Curtis White and Maddie Munro. This roundtable conversation was a USA Cycling Foundation Mud Fund event. The Mud Fund is an important component in what makes it possible for us to develop the future of American Cyclocross while also supporting the current US stars of the sport and giving them the opportunity to compete at the highest level.

Randy and Dean Warren talk each week about all things cycling focusing on all disciplines of professional racing. In Episode 194 the Warren brothers recap the end of the Vuelta a San Juan in Argentina and check in on the results from the races in Spain and Saudi Arabia.

Randy and Dean also talk about the cyclocross World Championships.
In today's episode I talk with Kerry Werner, professional cyclocross racer with the Kona Maxxis Shimano Team.

The biggest weekend of cyclocross season is here! Worlds start Saturday in Denmark. We preview the action and pick a few key riders you can expect to reach the podium. But first, we talk about Elia Viviani, recent winner of the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Race. How does he fit into the pantheon of modern sprinters, and what will he be able to achieve now that he is the number one sprinter on Quick-Step. And we finish off with a chat with Daam van Reeth, a.k.a. Professor Cyclocross. He is an expert in TV viewership trends in Belgium. Unfortunately, the trends are not looking good for 'cross.

With brutal mud on a gnarly course, 'cross worlds didn't disappoint... and neither did the U.S. women's team. We recap and analyze the battle between Sanne Cant and Katie Compton. Then, we try to make sense of why the tables turned in the ongoing rivalry between Mathieu van der Poel and Wout van Aert. Of course, the podcast wouldn't be complete without an update on Chris Froome. Turns out, he's going to race in a week or so, despite the Salbutamol scandal. We debate whether this is the right move or not. Andrew Hood takes the pulse of the peloton to see if fellow pro riders want to see Froome back at the races.

Rainbow jerseys are on the line this weekend at cyclocross worlds in the Netherlands. We consider the top favorites and look back at the treacherous final round of the World Cup last Sunday in Hoogerheide. Road season is also underway with early season races in Argentina, Mallorca, and Australia. Trek-Segafredo came out swinging this week with five wins worldwide. One of the men to raise his arms was Toms Skujins, a newcomer to the American team. Spencer interviews him to talk about the turmoil of changing teams, racing the Vuelta, and more.

The Warren brothers convene once again to talk all things cycling and start off with weather for their own rides. Randy gives descending advice and then he and Dean talk about the recent races. They discuss the events in Australia and Argentina as well as Mallorca before covering the Cyclocross World Championships where American Ellen Noble earned a silver medal in the women's U23 race. The Warren brothers wonder which race successes in the early season will translate to wins later on and are excited to be back in the road racing time.
Seven-time Cyclocross World Champion Marianne Vos talks about the 2017 CX Worlds, and how her season has been. You can also read the transcript of this on my site, with some more rider interviews: https://prowomenscycling.com/2017/01/28/2017-cyclocross-world-championships-marianne-vos-sophie-de-boer-and-christine-majerus/
Adam Myerson is one of my favourite personalities in cyclocross. He's recently retired from being a pro cyclocross and road racer, has been running CX races in the USA for over 25 years, and has a fantastic online presence as a cyclocross analyst. We talked about the 2015-6 European season, the state of USA CX (and why referring to it as a single scene is a misnomer), how the sport has changed, and everything from "Why can't Sanne smile?" to Femke van den Driessche's motorised bike at the 2016 CX Worlds, with a focus on the women but talking a lot about the men's side of the sport as well. And we're joined by Myerson's baby son Flynn, leading to a conversation about Adam's new life as a stay-at-home dad, as well as the book he's writing. Click through to my website for the links for more information about Adam, and things we talked about in the conversation: https://prowomenscycling.com/2016/02/10/talking-cyclocross-with-adam-myserson/
This week our hosts reveal the BEST bike swap tips ever! Then delve into CX Worlds, the sadfaces on the podium, the youngsters mixing it up, and the #BORINGNESS of the men’s race and then move on to the upcoming road season! Dark horses for the season are picked. LittleGuy ruins his computer. And we experiment with video skype. (spoiler alert: it’s weird and distracting)

This week we were joined by @resultsboy himself, Colin Reuter. We grilled him about #treepeople, USAC Shenanigans, and of course this piece and this other piece that he wrote after the botched 2014-15 USA Cycling Cyclocross Nationals last week. But that wasn’t all, we talked CX Worlds predictions, Dream analysis, and kind of a lot about FATBIKES. SPOILER ALERT: He didn’t find any errors in this weeks episode! WUT?!
February 3, 2014 This episode is unofficially sponsored by left over Boulder Beer from the fridge. D2 and Mr. 40 Hands discuss cyclocross worlds and fatbikes. Fatbike extravaganza. They check in from out on the trail on their 9:Zero:7 and Borealis fatbikes. They quickly learned that tires are a huge deal on fatbikes. Do fatbikes make sense, why would you get one, how much would you spend on one, and would they work as an all season rig? Want to hear what they both think about riding fatbikes, listen in. Thanks Specialized. Fuck Trek and fuck you.

We're baaaaacck! Well, okay, we came back a week ago, but now, we’re officially back. Back in the Cycling Central studio at SBS HQ, that is. The mic’s have been cleaned out, the mic socks replaced (Tomo’s spitting, inevitably, got the better of them), the chairs reupholstered, the table re-lacquered, our Gustavo Fring lookalike, a.k.a. studio producer Dennis, has returned – unlike Fring, who died at the meth-laden hands of Walter White – but the regulars remain! Hosted by our in-house hipster Alex Hinds and accompanied by Cycling Central managing editor Phil Gomes and King (or should that be queen?) of Willunga Hill, Anthony Tan, the trio first get stuck into the Santos Tour Down Under, and reminisce and ruminate on a cracking start to the 2014 WorldTour calendar. Running concurrently with the TDU was the Tour de San Luis. Shambolic and uncivilized at times, superlative at others; should we have expected anything less? Adelaide may resemble a ghost town after the TDU peloton departed – but did you know the Australian track nationals are on this week at the Adelaide Super-Drome, and Wednesday night, golden girl Anna Meares clocked up her thirtieth national title?! And, further afield – okay, okay, *miles* away – in Hoogerheide, the Netherlands, the world’s best cyclo-crossers get down and dirty this weekend to fight for a bunch of rainbow jerseys. First person to stay upright and not break bike or bone wins… Or something like that. Hear us out now, yo!
