    In the latest installment of our special edition podcast, Orogenesis Dispatches, Josh Weinberg talks with adventure cyclist Kurt Refsnyder, who is riding the entire trail from the US border with Canada all the way to Mexico.Kurt checks in from Bridgeport, California, about 2,000 miles (3,200 km) into the 5,000-mile (8,000 km) route. From there, with it being nearly halfway through the route, he reflects on challenges that have included substantial sections of deadfall in Oregon, smoke and fires in Idaho, and unexpectedly hard sections like a soft rail bed in Northern California. He also reveals a feeling of relief being in California, where the trails are more established for bikes, and deadfall will hopefully be less of a concern.The bulk of the conversation addresses reader/listener-submitted questions that span a multitude of topics, including using an electronic drive train over a mechanical one, riding without a chamois pad, how he chooses camping spots, the daily joys of waking up on the trail, and what lies ahead.

As an adult, he found new outlets for his competitive spirit, spending a decade in karate, moving into marathons and ultrarunning, hiking, and even competing in the unique “ride and tie” races that combine running with endurance horseback riding. He has completed over 100 hikes to the top of Lone Peak, over 11,000 feet up in the Wasatch front in Northern Utah. Now 68, Pat embraced gravel biking a year ago, and this summer, he completed a 4,000-mile solo ride across the United States from Anacortes, Washington to Maine. While members of his family would sometimes meet him at stops along the way, he braved storms, equipment breakdowns, headwinds, and long lonely roads, averaging 76 miles a day and chronicling the journey through daily YouTube videos. Pat lives in Sandy, Utah with his wife and four children and continues to prove that adventure doesn't have an age limit.

    Join Discourse and contribute to the Spotlight, and join the conversation - a small monthly donation gets you membership to our community, and that allows you to drive discussion around these shows, and get even more value and insight from what other listeners are sharing.Show notesIn Spotlight this week, we look back at a packed weekend of sports action and offer insights on the big events. We kick it off with the AFL (1:39), where the Grand Final was played, and where listener Josh sent in an article exploring how the body shape and size of players have evolved over the years. Gareth wonders whether the players adapt to the game, or whether the game adapts to the athleticism of its players, and Ross explains the physiological equivalent of 'form follows function'.Then we move to Rugby (9:56), where England were crowned World Champions at the weekend, crowing an unbeaten World Cup cycle in which they've averaged 50 points a match and not lost a single match. The final wasn't exactly smooth sailing, and Gareth and Ross share some thoughts on what impressed us, and where Canada may have fallen short, with hopes for continued growth in the game.From Rugby to cycling for a brief last look back at the Rwanda World Champs (23:10), but where off-bike news in the form of the UCI back-pedal on handlebar widths and other policy changes are the main focus of conversation.Cycling gives way to golf (38:48), and the Ryder Cup, which looked like a foregone conclusion until it wasn't, and one of the year's great sports spectacles unfolded in New York. We learn how Europe used data analytics and simulations to optimize its foursome and fourball combinations, and wonder when data becomes a hinderance as opposed to a helper in sport?In response to a spate of serious ACL injuries in the NFL and in football (51:58), Gareth wonders whether something is happening, perhaps related to the training and conditioning of athletes, or the turf, to increase ACL injury risk? Ross is less sure, explaining how rare injuries can throw up misleading 'patterns', compounded by media bias.We wrap up with some doping stories (55:52), including the CAS decision in the case of Erriyon Knighton, who was initially cleared of doping when he was able to show contamination of an oxtail meal he consumed. But CAS didn't see it the same way, and he got a four year ban because of their interpretation of the pharmacokinetics and the relative levels of the banned substance in the oxtial compared to in his urine. We also go to Kenya, where an athlete admitted not only to taking EPO, but explaining how he obtained it. Whether it's a truthful account is anyone's guess.And finally (1:03:16), the NFL came to (Dublin) town last weekend, and the juxtaposition of some high profile rugby players and the NFL kicked off a conversation comparing the two sports. We end with a semi lighthearted look at the helmet and pad culture of American Football, and offer thoughts on why rugby's lack of protective equipment doesn't necessarily make it more dangerous.LinksTaller, leaner, faster AFL playersYou can read the Knighton CAS decision hereNo Laying Up Golf Analytics Podcast Hosted on Acast.

    Cycling plays multiple roles in our quest to live longer, healthier lives. Both indoor and outdoor riding builds cardiovascular health, strengthens the lower body, and protects joints. In our latest Move for Life episode, Peter Bowes is joined by Ageless Workout fitness experts Nate Wilkins and Shebah Carfagna to explore the pros and some of the cons of getting on your bike.  They examine the trade-offs between low-impact spinning and higher-intensity classes and why controlling resistance and cadence matters; the benefits of being outdoors - exposure to the elements, vitamin D, varied terrain - while stressing safety and proper bike fit. Prostate-related pressure from prolonged seated riding is also examined, along with the importance of saddle design, and when to stand to reduce risk. You should consult your healthcare providers before starting or modifying cycling routines.-----This podcast is supported by affiliate arrangements with a select number of companies.

    Today, Trek launched a bike that's sure to spark debate in comments sections. It's called the CheckOut. It features a new 60 mm travel front suspension fork, courtesy of the RockShox Rudy XL, and 55 mm rear travel to match. It fits gravel-width cranks and has official clearance for up to 56 mm tyres (about a 29x2.25in).However, it's the design and testing of this bike that brings our fascination up to a boiling point. Trek published a white paper explaining how it used a rolling road with 3D motion capture, on bike sensors, and a metabolic mask to understand the benefits of having suspension on typical gravel terrain. We had questions.So with that, Alex Bedinghaus (Lead Design Engineer) and Kyle Russ (Analysis team) jumped on to geek out with Escape's Dave Rome. The conversation covers the design of the bike, what modern off-road efficiency testing looks like, why gravel bikes continue to go where mountain bikes have been, and plenty more.Meanwhile, head over to Escape Collective.com to see Dave Rome's early coverage of the new Check Out.Those on the free feed for Geek Warning get the first 25 minutes free.

    Josh Weinberg recently checked in with Kurt Refsnider, a bikepacker attempting the first full ride of the Orogenesis Trail. At roughly 5,000 miles, the route begins at the Canada–US border and travels through Washington, Oregon, and California to the Mexico border, then onto the Baja Divide.At the time of recording, Kurt was in Paisley, Oregon, about 1,100 miles in, nearing California and the halfway point through the U.S. section.Kurt details how challenging the ride through Washington was, with nearly 120,000 feet of climbing and descending over rugged moto trails and non-motorized singletrack near Mount St. Helens. He faced detours due to land closures, and construction added to the difficulty.Once in Oregon, Kurt has primarily followed the Oregon Timber Trail. Using elevation gain as a metric for daily effort, he explains how climbing has taken priority over daily mileage, aiming for 7,000 to 8,000 feet of climbing per day.He also dives into gear maintenance and resupply strategies, which have been tough, with dust wearing down his suspension and brake pads, and unpredictable provision availability. He's already swapped out some wear items and explains how opting for battery packs over a dynamo hub for power has worked out.Along the way, Kurt has been fueled by strong community support.Folks following along are tracking his progress, offering lodging, bringing food, and sharing real-time trail conditions. Looking ahead, he faces a tough, deadfall-heavy section in southern Oregon. Once he crosses into California, he'll encounter faster ATV trails before taking a rest near Quincy and heading into long singletrack sections through Truckee and Tahoe, where we plan to catch up with him again.

    How to Plan a Cycling Vacation: Tips & Gear for First-Time Bike Trips

    In this episode of Vacation Mavens, we are joined by adventure traveler and blogger Sherry Ott of OttsWorld. We dive into what it takes to plan a successful cycling vacation — everything from choosing destinations and tour types, to picking the right gear, training beforehand, and recovering well. Whether you're a biking newbie or looking to level up your next bike‐based trip, this one's packed with insights and practical advice. Sherry Ott is a long-time travel blogger (since 2006) specializing in adventure travel, especially for women. She started leading small group trips in 2018, including unique “cat lady tours” in Japan. Sherry began serious biking during the pandemic, upgrading to gravel bikes and exploring both domestic (U.S.) and international routes (Chile, France, Prince Edward Island). She is passionate about making bike travel accessible, safe, and fun for all skill levels. Episode Highlights Planning & Choosing a Trip Decide between guided and self-guided tours — guided trips offer support and community, while self-guided give you more flexibility. Research destinations with strong bike infrastructure (trail networks, signage, support). Check elevation, distance, and trail type (paved vs. gravel) to match your comfort level. Look for tour companies that provide e-bike options if you want extra support. Read reviews, ask about group size, and confirm whether you can bring your own gear (seat, mirror, pedals). Training & Fitness Prep Start riding regularly at home to build saddle time and comfort. Practice on terrain similar to your trip (gravel, hills, road). Work on balance, confidence, and endurance. Don't underestimate elevation — even moderate climbs can feel tough over multiple days. Safety & Comfort Gear Always bring your own helmet for the best fit and safety. Pack a rear-view mirror (handlebar or helmet mount) for traffic awareness. Wear bright, high-visibility clothing so drivers and riders can see you. Bring rain gear and layers — weather can shift quickly. Prioritize comfort over style on the bike. Recovery & Wellbeing Use compression socks or leggings (e.g. Vim & Vigor) to reduce muscle fatigue. Hydrate often and refuel with snacks during rides. Allow time for rest and stretching after long days. Be mindful of long flights post-trip — keep circulation flowing with compression wear and movement. Helpful Resources Adventure Cycling Association – maps, routes, and trip planning tools. Tour operators like Experience Plus, Biketours.com, and Backroads. Tourism boards for bike-friendly regions with trail networks and infrastructure.

The shownotes are basically the podcast episode in written form, that you can read in 5-10 minutes. They are not transcriptions, but they are also not just surface-level overviews. They provide detailed insights and timestamps for each episode, and are great especially for later review, after you've already listened to an episode. Naturally, as great as they are, they do not cover absolutely everything in as great detail as we can do in a 45-90 minute podcast episode.  The shownotes for today's episode can be found at www.scientifictriathlon.com/tts471/LINKS AND RESOURCES: Monique's website and InstagramSports Nutrition for Endurance Athletes - book by Monique RyanWHAT SHOULD I LISTEN TO NEXT?If you enjoyed this episode, I think you'll love the following episodes: The Performance Chef – Alan Murchison | EP#366 - this is my personal favourite episode I've ever done on the topic of nutrition! Carbohydrates – science and practice with Tim Podlogar, PhD | EP#354 - a great blend of science and practice by one of the foremost experts in the fieldRED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sports) with Margo Mountjoy | EP#233 - Everything you need to know about RED-SEnergy availability with José Areta, PhD | EP#378 - A scientific look into energy availability and low energy availability (and how it's different from a caloric deficit)James Moran | EP#404 - James is the head of nutrition at Uno-X Pro Cycling Team.

    Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin break down Filippo Ganna's scorching performance to win today's individual time trial at the Vuelta a España, just ahead of UAE's Jay Vine, with his teammate João Almeida putting valuable time into the race leader, Jonas Vingegaard, behind. They analyze what the time splits throughout the effort can tell us about each contender, and continue to question why UAE is putting such a big priority on chasing stage wins over supporting their GC leader, especially with Vingegaard within reach. Before they go, they preview tomorrow's stage, discussing how it could play out and who is best positioned to take the stage win.
