The discussion highlights the unique challenges and strategies in gravel racing, as well as the implications of tire width on performance.

They also explore the cultural aspects of cycling, including a humorous take on beer and its role in cycling events. The conversation shifts to Tucson, highlighting its appeal as a cycling destination, before critiquing a new Ridley drop bar mountain bike, emphasizing the need for better design and components. Takeaways Scott had a strong start but faced challenges during the race. Travel issues can significantly impact an athlete's performance. Injuries often overshadow other aspects of an athlete's life. The hosts share a light-hearted banter about cycling and personal lives. Scott's experience highlights the unpredictability of racing conditions. The conversation reveals the emotional toll of competitive cycling. Viewership of cycling events varies greatly between disciplines. The hosts express their differing levels of enthusiasm for bike racing. Scott's personal life is intertwined with his cycling career. The discussion reflects on the popularity of cycling events and their accessibility. GCN's Perry Roubaix highlights show significant viewer engagement. Race highlights are crucial for audience understanding of events. Formula One's excitement is often overshadowed by its complexity. MotoGP offers a more dynamic racing experience than Formula One. Motocross can be chaotic and hard to follow live. E3 race highlights provide insights into upcoming classics. Pogacar's participation in Roubaix is a significant development. Tire choices can greatly affect performance in races like Roubaix. Riders often have to balance tire width for cobbles and pavement. The anticipation of racing on cobbles adds to the excitement. Mental health is an important topic that can be unpacked in conversations. Cycling predictions often lead to friendly debates among enthusiasts. Naming trends can reflect personal stories and cultural influences. Adoption allows for name changes, but it's a sensitive topic. Experiences with natural disasters can bring communities together. April Fool's Day can lead to playful banter among friends. Casual conversations can reveal deeper insights about life and relationships. Personal anecdotes can make discussions more relatable and engaging. The importance of trust in one's work is highlighted in humorous exchanges. Celebrating birthdays can lead to unexpected connections and shared experiences. Choosing the right cycling shoes is crucial for performance. Laces can be a disadvantage during races due to loosening. Gravel-specific shoes are often seen as a marketing gimmick. Cyclocross shoes are designed for running and cycling. Personal comfort varies greatly among different shoe brands. Finding the right fit is a challenge in the cycling shoe market. Insoles can help alleviate hotspots in shoes. Many cyclists stick to familiar brands and models. Testing shoes before buying is a significant gap in the market. Innovative designs can enhance comfort and performance in cycling shoes. Mavix is still a company, despite rumors of its closure. Lace shoes are preferred for aerodynamics, but have disadvantages. Velcro shoes are underrated for their speed and convenience. Oral hygiene is crucial for cyclists who consume sugar during rides. Cyclists should separate sugar intake on and off the bike for better health. Post-race recovery drinks like Fanta may taste better but aren't the best choice. Hydration practices in the sauna can impact performance and recovery. Maximizing heat acclimation may not be worth the risk of dehydration. Tires are the most critical component for performance in gravel racing. Understanding the role of hubs can help improve cycling performance. Investing in tires is more beneficial than hubs. The performance difference in hubs is marginal compared to tires. Cycling culture often intertwines with humor and beer. Tucson is recognized as a great place for cycling. The new Ridley bike lacks proper design for serious cycling. A production drop bar mountain bike should be purpose-built. Old inventory can lead to questionable bike builds. Cyclists often experiment with different tires for races. The conversation reflects a mix of technical and cultural insights. The hosts share personal experiences related to cycling events.

Episode 120 - YouTube Beef, Gravel World Champs, and Tire Talk w/ Tyler Pearce (aka VC Adventures / The Vegan Cyclist) What up party people. I'm going to be completely honest here, I really had no idea who The Vegan Cyclist was until he started some good old fashioned beef with Dizzle in his Dustbowl 100 video and even after that I still didn't know his real name was Tyler Pearce until the night before recording this episode.  But hey, I give the guy some serious props for agreeing to come on the show this week and checking his ego at the door. Tyler came into this conversation with not only an open mind but also open arms willing to accept Dizzle and his sometimes brash persona despite all the controversy that was sparked.  Dylan and I mostly sit back and let the two YouTube frenemies clear the air on what really happened during their interaction at the Dust Bowl 100 before we all dive into some conversation on a few topics like Gravel World Champs, tires, marginal gains, and future projects VC is working up. Oh yeah, and if you came this week hoping I would share my latest tire test results comparing DJs beloved Race Kings to the Keegans sought after Aspen ST, I unfortunately was not able to complete the testing project prior to recording since we had to move our recording session forward a day but I'll post some of my preliminary findings on the socials at some point this week and leave the conversation for another episode.

Keegan Swenson's victory at the Steamboat gravel race on mountain bike tires highlights the potential shift in tire choice for gravel racing. Howie Grotts' serious crash at the Breck Epic is a reminder of the risks involved in competitive cycling. The Dust Bowl race in Iowa was a recent topic of discussion The participants share their experiences and anecdotes from the race The conversation touches on the importance of tires in racing Project Echelon and Christian Blumenfeld are mentioned in the conversation Iowa does not have mountains, just hills. The hosts discuss the best training tires for road riding, with Dylan recommending GP 5000 and Scott preferring Gator Skin. Having a separate training bike and race bike can be beneficial to preserve expensive parts on the race bike. There is confusion between Gravel Worlds and UCI Worlds, and the hosts suggest changing the name of one of them to avoid confusion. Scott is unsure if he could ride Alpe d'Huez in under an hour. The hosts discuss the possibility of drug testing in cycling and the need for fair competition. Dylan and Scott joke about their future in cycling and the potential for taking up other hobbies. The hosts reflect on their recent experiences watching race recaps and attending a birthday party. Getting sick at social gatherings is a common occurrence, especially during flu seasons. Retirement from professional racing often leads to a transition into other aspects of the sport, such as coaching or spectating. The income of top lifetime Grand Prix riders can vary greatly, with the top earners making significantly more than the rest. Tire selection is an important consideration for gravel riders, and the Vittoria Corsa and Peyote are mentioned as potential options. Backflips on a bike require skill and practice, and trampolines can be a good training tool. Professional cyclists face financial challenges, including expenses for training, travel, and equipment. Overcoming fear after a crash requires gradually getting back into the activity and accepting that fear is normal. Dylan has a strong attachment to his Conti Race King tires and finds them soothing. The hosts discuss the new Silca speed chip and endurance chip, as well as the potential for a mega product that combines all the different wax blends. They joke about using the crockpotinator for cooking and the potential for high prices if the Conti Race King tires were to be discontinued.   Titles The Serious Consequences of Cycling Crashes The Rise of Mountain Bike Tires in Gravel Racing Enjoying the Thrill of Racing The Significance of Tires in Racing No Mountains in Iowa Drug Testing in Cycling Attempting Backflips on a Bike Getting Sick at Social Gatherings Overcoming Fear After a Crash Dylan's Love for Conti Race King Tires   Sound Bites "The most exciting finish to a grand tour I've ever seen."
