Cambridge in England has become home to the country's first Dutch-style cycle street where bicycles, not cars, have the priority. No parking is allowed on the street and if you are in a car, you must go at the pace of the cyclist in front of you with no overtaking allowed. So is that an idea for here? Anton asked Ciaran Cuffe is Co Chair of the European Green Party.

Former pro-cyclist Jimmy Whelan reveals where he intends to run his debut marathon later this year – you'll have to listen to find out! Dialling in from his home in Barcelona, Jimmy talks about his transition from pro cycling to a brief stint as a triathlete and his newfound status as a professional runner sponsored by Salomon. He's never been happier as an athlete! And we tap into what that's all about. We talk about his breakout 61:37 half marathon in Valencia, the disappointment of Berlin half, the chatter centred on his scorching potential, and why he's not afraid to say big goals out loud, including his ambition to be in the marathon conversation for the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028. Jimmy also gives us a unique window into pro cycling on the European circuit. Aside from the joys of long group rides, living in Europe and café stops, the other headlines are: stress, contract pressure and terrifying crashes, which all ultimately pushed him away from the sport and back towards his first love of running. It's a full-circle moment for Jimmy, and what a pleasure it was to talk through his evolution and reinvention as an athlete on the pod! Enjoy! -- James “Jimmy” Whelan is an Australian athlete whose career has spanned professional cycling, triathlon and now distance running. Jimmy made a real statement last year when he ran a 61-minute half marathon in Valencia, attracting the attention of the athletics community and major sponsors alike. Now signed with Salomon, and coached by Andy Henderson, Jimmy has his sights set on the marathon distance, hoping to make his debut later this year. Jimmy's professional cycling career included affiliations with renowned teams such as Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team, Anicolor/Tien21 Cycling Team and EF Pro Cycling. Jimmy is currently based in Barcelona, Spain. -- Subscribe to Run With It wherever you get your podcasts, so you don't miss a thing! -- Check out Jimmy's YouTube: youtube.com/@jimmywhelan -- Follow us on Instagram: @jimmywhelann @runwithit.pod @elisebeacom -- Intro/outro music by Dan Beacom Graphic design by Kate Scheer

This week, James and Will are joined by ex-road pro turned gravel ace, Rob Britton. Born in Saskatchewan in Canada in 1984, Rob turned pro in 2010 with American team Bissell Pro Cycling and for the next 12 seasons raced at Continental level, arguably enjoying his best years with Rally Cycling (not that Raleigh, although he did race for that Raleigh in 2013), where he won the Tour of Utah, his second Tour of Gila in New Mexico and the Canadian National Time-Trial title. Given such strong showings in such hot, long and multi-day races, Rob was a safe bet when he – like lots of his road colleagues – moved into gravel. At first riding as a privateer – sponsored with a bit of kit but essentially riding team-less – Rob finished 6th in his first big gravel race, Unbound, in 2022, then the following year won Badlands – all 800km and 16,000 vertical metres of it. 2023 saw an incredible result at Traka, where he finished second behind fellow ex-road pro Pete Stetina, however arguably his best result so far came when the then 40-year-old beat Lachlan Morton at Unbound XL, finishing the 578km course at an astonishing average speed of 32.4kmh, smashing the course record by 12 minutes in the process.Such rides have seen Rob become part of the OVRLND adventure team, with backing from Easton Cycling, Castelli and Factor bikes, who's radical aero suspension gravel bike, the Sarana, Rob rode at this year's Traka 560.Whatever bike Rob rides he manages to make gruelling long-distance look easy, but as we chat about in this episode, his journey in cycling has been anything but, fraught with the difficulties of racing for smaller teams, the US's ever dwindling race calendar, and having to reinvent himself as a gravel racer, from canvassing for sponsors to looking after his own bikes. We caught up with Rob in Italy ahead of racing at The Hills Gravel Race in Treviso in March.Chat begins at 6.54-----------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

This week, James is joined by Guy Martin, former British motorcycle racer, land speed record setter, part-time cyclist and reluctant TV presenter - he says he'd rather be known for his day job fixing trucks than as a TV personality. But on the box he is, where you may have seen him building his own narrowboat from archaic methods (think smelting your own iron), breaking tractor land speed records (spoiler, 135mph), rebuilding First World War tanks and travelling the globe in the Our Guy in… series, where Guy visits the Chernobyl reactor in Ukraine, cycles across the desert in China, travels through India on a motorcycle and much more - we haven't even got to the drug cartels in Colombia yet.Guy is also a keen cyclist, from enduro-mountain biking to breaking the British land speed record on a special steel road bike, to his own self-styled ultra-cycling challenges, although he'd just call them ‘long rides to get me head straight'. And he's also an author, his new book All the Medals Have Been Handed Out is out on 7th May, which along with charting his adventures and misadventures on two wheels, recounts being kidnapped in Colombia and waterboarded; his soul-crushing, death-defying bicycle ride to Azerbaijan; and his continued ‘300 miles per hour job', an ongoing project to turn a street bike he bought for £5,000 into a record breaking motorcycle that he'll ride at over 300mph. And he's tightened all those nuts and bolts himself.We talk about all this and more, so buckle up your four-point harness and drop the clutch.

What does it take to go from a surf shop dropout to one of Britain's most elite Special Forces operators, then reinvent yourself all over again?Dean Stott MBE spent 16 years in the military, including time in the Special Boat Service (SBS), the UK's equivalent of SEAL Team Six. After a catastrophic parachuting accident at 15,000 feet ended his career, he refused to stop. He built a private security company from scratch, single-handedly evacuated the Canadian Embassy from war-torn Libya, rescued 220 people from Israel within 96 hours of the October 7th Hamas attacks, and, oh yeah, broke the world record for cycling the 14,000-mile Pan-American Highway in just 99 days, raising over $1.4 million for mental health charities along the way.In this conversation, Dean opens up about:— The parachuting accident that tore every ligament in his knee and ended his military career— Dressing as Taliban to run double agents in Kandahar, and the moment he nearly fired his weapon by mistake— How he buried 30 weapons in the Libyan desert and built a security empire from nothing— Why he believes anticipation is worse than participation— The raw "dead or divorce" conversation that changed everything in his marriage— Cycling 14,000 miles having barely ridden a bike — and smashing the world record by 17 days— How breathwork kept him calm in a boxing ring at age 49— His friendship with Prince Harry and the Heads Together mental health campaign— The Race Across America he's planning next, and why it's going to be specialDean is one of those rare humans who makes you rethink what's actually possible.

This week, James and Will chat to George Hincapie, the super-est of domestiques, double 'ard Classics man and erstwhile lieutenant to Lance Armstrong.George was born in Queens, New York City, on 29th June 1973, to cycling-mad Colombian dad, Ricardo. By twelve he was throwing elbows racing adults in Central Park, and by his teens he was showing the talent that would take him to the Olympics in 1992 and his first pro season, with Motorola, in 1994.At first a self-confessed bunch of American upstarts, Motorola morphed into one of the most formidable teams of the 90s and 2000s, US Postal. There, George forged his status as one of cycling's strongest and most dependable riders, supporting team leader Lance Armstrong as road captain and lieutenant across all seven of Armstrong's Tour wins – though of course that's wins in inverted commas.George retired from the pro peloton in 2012 after 19 seasons in which he started the Tour de France 17 consecutive times, finishing it 16 times and winning one team-time-trial stage. He also rode 50 Monuments including finishing second at Paris Roubaix and third at Tour of Flanders; he won Gent-Wevelgem in 2001; and was three-time US National Champ.Today, George is bringing all that experience to his new team, Modern Adventure Pro Cycling, with the express intention of giving young riders a shot at the big time while becoming 'the next great American team', who might one day compete in the Grand Tours. We spoke to George ahead of Paris-Roubaix, where Modern Adventure had the first big wildcard entry of its inaugural season.Our chat begins at 10.24-----------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

Doug Dahl breaks down the spatial math behind cyclist passing laws on two-lane roads. Ford F-150s measure 8 feet wide with mirrors, but most road lanes are only 10-12 feet. Add the required 3-foot buffer and cyclist positioning, and legal in-lane passing becomes impossible for most vehicles. The solution isn't aggression—it's understanding when patience beats risky maneuvers on double yellow line roads. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/opinion-passing-a-cyclist-law-myth-and-a-little-patience/ #CyclistSafety #TrafficLaws #RoadSharing #Transportation #TheWiseDrive #Opinion #DrivingSafety #ClarkCounty

This week James and Will are joined by Harry Tanfield. Born and raised in Yorkshire, Harry started racing aged 10, and having caught teams' attention with strong performances at races like Junior Paris-Roubaix, he turned professional aged 20 with JLT Condor. ProConti racing turned WordTour after a landmark season in 2018 that saw a silver at the Commonwealth Games time-trial, a British National track title and World Cup wins on the track plus an all-important stage win at the Tour de Yorkshire, making him the first Yorkshireman to win a stage of the race. The following year Harry joined WorldTour Team Katusha-Alpecin on a two year contract, but by the end of the season the team had folded. A few more unsettled seasons followed with moves to AG2R in 2020 then Qhubeka for 2021, but by 2022 Harry was back racing ProConti with Ribble-Weldtite, TDT then Saint Piran.

This week Will and James are joined by Castelli and Sportful's global brand manager, Steve Smith. Steve grew up in Portland, USA, where he – like most of the city he says – worked for Nike for 10 years. But in 2000 he decided to make a bold move to Italy, to live the bella vita with a job at Sportful. Four years later parent company Manifattura Valcismon bought Castelli, and in the years since Steve and his team have been responsible for some of the biggest game-changers in cycling, from creating some of the earliest, wind-tunnel designed aero kit to the now infamous Castelli Gabba, which revolutionised foul weather cycling gear and spawned a whole new genre of clothing along the way.In this chat, Steve explains how those early aero jerseys sparked a mutiny within Castelli's sponsored pros; the day Castelli blew everyone's minds – including the race commissaires – with turquoise shorts; what the fastest kit would really look like if riders could only put it on properly; what changes in the law around PFC chemicals have really meant for cycling clothing; and how waterproof kit actually works – and why some jackets lose it, while others will be waterproof forever.Our chat with Steve begins at 10.34------------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

I'm back in the saddle to talk about my most "delusional" goal yet: cycling 2,000 miles from Mexico to Canada in just 13 days to raise $1 million for underserved families across America. I'm pulling back the curtain on my training, from the "unsolicited advice" that almost derailed me to the makeshift bike-desk I built to ensure this mission doesn't come at the expense of my family or business. I'll explain how I'm breaking down a massive, 150-mile-a-day hurdle into bite-sized "races," why I'm keeping a "Book of Receipts" for the doubters, and how we can all find a different level of obsession when our actions finally match our ambitions.Learn more about theRide: https://gobundance.com/therideConnect With MattWebsite: http://themattking.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattking.atx TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mattking.atx LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kingmatthewr/ Watch more of Matt:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLV1o1AiDqYX8Na5qNsgeAQ#gobundance #theRide #podcast The Tribe of High-Performing Men: http://gobundance.com/tribe
Tadej Pogačar looks unstoppable after his Strade Bianche masterclass, but is his new "beefier" physique the secret to his success?

We also check out 5 brand-new bike launches from Giant, Merida, and Bianchi, find out which bike Ed Sheeran just bought, and Dan compares his Strava times to Pogačar on the infamous Le Tolfe climb!

This week, Robyn and James are joined by WorldTour pro Zoe Bäckstedt. Born in 2004 in Pontyclun, Wales to British track champion Megan Hughes and Paris-Roubaix winner Magnus Bäckstedt, there were only two ways Zoe's life (and sister Elynor's for that matter) could have gone – cycling or cycling. So she burst onto the scene as a teenager, winning multiple junior world titles in road, track and cyclocross, before turning pro with EF Education-Tibco-SVB in 2022.The following season saw her big move to Canyon//Sram zondacrypto, where she took her first pro win a season later with a stage at the Simac Ladies Tour. A string of top results and showings has followed across all three cycling disciplines, but at just 21 years old, colleagues, managers and pundits are all sure of one thing: Zoe's best is yet to come.In this episode, Zoe talks about how her multi-discipline abilities have converged on Classics specialist; how dad Magnus and mum Megan have made her the rider she is, along with the British rain; why, despite the chaos and carnage, Paris-Roubaix is still her favourite race; and just how difficult it is to play boardgames in a family that's so competitive.Zoe's chat begins at 7.38------------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

This week we are chatting with ultra cyclist and bikepacker Gregg Dunham all about his new film documenting the EPIC Stagecoach 400 race in Southern California!! Gregg also talks about what inspired "Hidden in Plain Sight" his film about a bikepack trip he took with friends through the Santa Monica mountains and some of his life challenges that inspired that project. Right now you can support Gregg by donating to his Seed and Spark campaign to help the Stagecoach film series get over the finish line of Post Production (I supported because I'm genuinely psyched to see it!)

Guest: Jeremy Zakis. A juvenile brown snake surprised commuters at Riverston station, causing a cyclist to flee in panic. However, a man wearing shorts and lacking safety gear calmly picked up the venomous snake and moved it, displaying professional handling skills despite his casual appearance. Zakis notes that brown snakes are currently very active and dangerous when coiled.
