Send us a textWhat happens when you combine cycling with ziplining? According to Michael, you get one of the most unique adventure experiences available—bike ziplining through the Mexican jungle. After returning from a week-long resort vacation with his family, Michael shares his discovery of this extraordinary activity that lets you pedal your way through the rainforest canopy, over water, and even through caves on a suspended recumbent-style bike.This episode blends travel tales with cycling plans as the duo prepares for their upcoming Bourbon Country Burn adventure in Kentucky. Michael reveals that despite his fractured clavicle not fully healing (now eight weeks into recovery), he's determined to join the event and enjoy the famously smooth roads of Kentucky horse country. The roads, as Adam explains, are maintained to perfection for transporting valuable thoroughbred horses—creating an ideal cycling surface through picturesque landscapes.The conversation weaves through Mexican adventure parks, underwater propulsion devices for "power snorkeling," and the fascinating 2000-year history of ziplining itself. We learn how modern recreational ziplining originated with Costa Rican biologists studying rainforest canopies in the 1970s, and how it's evolved into unique variations like the cycling zipline Michael experienced.Looking ahead to Kentucky, the pair shares their excitement about the Bourbon Country Burn event with its perfect blend of cycling, bourbon tastings, evening bonfires, and community gatherings. They'll be starting their journey on Louisville's historic Whiskey Row before heading to the Kentucky Horse Park campground, where cornhole boards will be set up and bourbon will be shared. For listeners considering joining them, there's even news of an available campsite thanks to a friend who had to cancel.Want to experience the perfect blend of cycling adventure and leisure? Grab your bike, pack your sense of adventure, and perhaps a taste for bourbon—the roads of Kentucky and the stories of fellow cyclists await!

The list of world-class cyclists that have come out of the Durango Devo junior cycling program is astounding. Christopher Blevins is on a tear and is currently leading the UCI XCO overall. Riley Amos crushed the XC U23s last year. Sepp Kuss made a name for himself shepherding Jonas Vingegaard through the mountains and then went on to win a Grand Tour himself, and Quinn Simmons' aggressive attacks made headlines during this year's Tour de France. So today, we catch up with Durango Devo co-founder Chad Cheeney to find out what the secret is to consistently turning out some of the best bike riders in the world.RELATED LINKS:Durango DevoBlister Mountain Bike Buyer's GuideGet Our Free Newsletter & Gear GiveawaysBLISTER+ Get Yourself CoveredTOPICS & TIMES:Culture & Passion (1:43)Paying Attention to Kids (3:15)OG Durango XC History (3:35)Athletes Having Kids (5:50)What is Durango Devo?

Ela aprendeu a nadar ainda bebê e, dos nove aos dezenove anos, dedicou-se à natação competitiva, passando também pelo polo aquático, experiências que construíram a base que sustentaria sua trajetória. Ao mesmo tempo, cultivava uma curiosidade quase enciclopédica pelos esportes em geral, acompanhando resultados e estatísticas. Enquanto avançava nos estudos de Engenharia Civil, o ritmo intenso entre faculdade e trabalho em uma construtora a afastou momentaneamente das piscinas. Um episódio de estresse, porém, a levou de volta à atividade física, primeiro pela corrida e em seguida pelo ciclismo. Pouco tempo mais tarde, já disputava um triathlon sprint. O passo seguinte foi natural: em 2005 estreou no triathlon e, em 2006, brilhou ao conquistar o título mundial amador do Ironman 70.3 em sua faixa etária, resultado que despertou nela a vontade antiga de se tornar atleta profissional. Super dedicada, sua progressão foi consistente e rápida. Tornou-se tricampeã brasileira de longa distância, conquistou um top 10 no Mundial de Longa Distância de 2008 e a 5ª colocação no Ironman Brasil 2009. Ainda foi eleita atleta revelação e melhor triatleta de longa distância do país. Sua carreira, no entanto, sofreu uma reviravolta quando um grave acidente de bicicleta a afastou das competições por meses. Entre a reabilitação e a reconstrução, encontrou espaço para uma nova vertente: a comunicação. Atuou como colunista esportiva, comentarista, repórter e produtora de triathlon. O retorno às competições trouxe novas conquistas, mas também abriu portas para o empreendedorismo. Em um período em que se afastou do esporte, desta vez para realizar duas cirurgias, cofundou uma agência de marketing esportivo que desenvolveu projetos inovadores, entre eles a famosa Casa do Brasil em Kona. Nos últimos anos, ampliou ainda mais sua participação no ciclismo, em provas de estrada e de gravel, acumulando pódios em diversos eventos, ao mesmo tempo em que deu os primeiros passos como comentarista de ciclismo na ESPN e passou a integrar a equipe do podcast Gregário Cycling. Projetos autorais em redes sociais, como resumos de provas e coberturas dos Jogos Olímpicos de Tóquio e Paris, ampliaram seu alcance e deram uma nova voz ao esporte olímpico brasileiro. Conosco de volta, a engenheira com MBA internacional em Gerenciamento de Projetos, educadora física, ex-triatleta profissional que se tornou ciclista, comunicadora, fundadora da Flows Sports Marketing, podcaster, comentarista e narradora esportiva que se transformou na voz do ciclismo feminino no Brasil, a goianense Ana Lídia dos Santos Borba.

Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin break down Mads Pedersen's hugely impressive stage win on Sunday, where he powered away from the early breakaway despite being a heavily marked rider, further extending his incredible streak of Grand Tour stage victories and Points Jerseys.

In this episode of the podcast, Andrew Sykes sets off with Tim Sanders to cycle the length of La Vélo Francette in northern France. After taking a ferry to Cherbourg, the dynamic duo headed east by train to Bayeux before mounting their bikes and continuing on two wheels. At Ouistreham on the Normandy coast they started their journey south along La Vélo Francette, a 600 km route that travels inland to La Rochelle on the French Atlantic coast. Would they arrive in time to catch their trains and ferries home? It's over two hours of cycle-camping adventure (with two hotels thrown in for good measure) interspersed with the music of the incomparable Rob Ainsley. Put your earphones in, sit back and let Andrew and Tim take the cycling strain...

I have the best news: we already have the solution to all of our problems. This could save over 8 million lives a year, make us live longer with fewer sick days, save billions of dollars, and make us all a lot happier to be around... I feel like this should be front-page news? The problem is, it's boring. Because it's cycling.It turns out the issue of cycling is actually far, far more complicated than most of us realise. The health, economic and community implications are massive, but we still don't have huge swaths of the community cycling in droves. So why is this, and what can we do to change it?Well, that's what this episode is all about.In this episode let's discuss:Why cars are such massive pollution contributorsExamples of cities that have prioritised cycling and actually reaped the benefitsHow cycling impacts communitiesCycling's benefits on physical healthCycling's benefits on mental healthThe surprisingly massive impacts of car parksHumans' inability to assess danger - and why it affects cyclingWhy helmets actually add to the idea that cycling is dangerousThe societal factors that influence cycling uptakeThe tiny annoyances that throw people off using bikesThe main reason people don't cycleAnd the solution to all of itThanks for joining me on this episode of Because Why?!Mā te wā - see you next week.You can get involved with the podcast online in the meantime, of course.Find our full podcast via the website here: https://www.nowthatwhatsicall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/becausewhypod/You can follow me on socials on the below accounts.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/briannemwest/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@briannemwestLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/briannemwest/For our latest big project, find out more about Incrediballs here: https://incrediballs.com/

Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather.

He compares the experience to other long-distance trails, such as the Colorado Trail and the Tour Divide, with an emphasis on how rugged and demanding Orogenesis is.

Remember when Juan Ayuso was the biggest story of the week? Today on the show: Protests in the Basque Country bring the Vuelta to a halt, GC Pidcock has arrived, maybe? And we still haven't talked about Juan Ayuso officially leaving UAE, so we'll definitely talk about that.
This week, James is joined by cycling journalist and author Chris Sidwells, to explore the life and times of Britain's most storied rider, Tom Simpson, on the eve of Simpson's historic World Championships win, 60 years ago, almost to the day.As Simpson's nephew (his mother was Simpson's sister), Chris is uniquely placed to tell us the tale of the miner's son from County Durham who'd become the first Briton to wear the yellow jersey in, winning countless races including three of the five Monuments along the way. As most will know, the end of the Simpson story is a tragic one, but while Chris talks candidly about that day on Mont Ventoux and the situation leading up to it, he's also here to remember Simpson as the trail-blazing, mercurial rider, whose palmarès deserves to be the thing we remember him for most.So sit back and enjoy stories you may have heard before, only uniquely told with hidden insights, plus many more stories you haven't, as we celebrate the extraordinary feats of Mr Tom.From 7th-14th September, Chris and his Cycling Legends friends will be hosting an extended Tom Simpson Cycling Festival in Harworth, Nottinghamshire, which includes sportives, cycling talks and films, the Tom Simpson Museum reopening, and the return of the Retro Weekender, replete with Simpson Retro Ride, Best in Show vintage bike competition and all manner of cycle-centric fun, from grass track racing to the retro bike jumble.

Dane Cash and Cosmo Catalano break down stage 9 of the Vuelta a España and take a broader look at all the action from the first week of the race.
When Trek scrubbed Greg LeMond's name from its catalog—then sent $200,000 to a charity—their 15-year partnership ended with a whisper, not a verdict. In this episode we follow the receipts: contracts, press statements, court filings, and the cultural weather that turned a licensing deal into a public breakup. We revisit Armstrong, Ferrari, and the silence of the 2000s, and ask why truth-telling was punished. Expect hard facts, context, and takeaways on contracts, speech, and settlements. By the end, you may see why this was never just about bikes—it was about power, silence, and who gets to tell cycling's story.NOMIO is clinically proven to:Lower lactate levels, Reduce oxidative stress, Improve training adaptations And deliver a noticeable boost from the very first dose.

Mountain bike racing is hard. Ultrarunning is hard. So why did Maude Farrell decide to make things extra brutal for herself this season by combining them? Earlier this month, she won the Lead Challenge, a multi-month series comprised of five trail running and mountain bike races at over 10,000 feet. The final week of the series involved racing the Leadville 100 mountain bike race, running the Leadville 10k the next day, and running the Leadville Trail 100 race six days later. Maude sat down with Payson less than 36 hours after crossing that long-awaited finish line to talk about why she decided to blend these two punishing disciplines for her 2025 season after going all-in on gravel last year, how she trained for ultramarathons and cycling at the same time, and how those never-ending hundred miles of the Leadville Trail Race unfolded. Tears, a rave on Powerline, a life-giving cup of broth, and a lot of swearing were involved.Instagram: @withpacepodYouTube: Payson McElveen Email: howdy@withpace.cc
