Training is more fun and effective when you're comfortable and stoked on your gear. Sure, you could train like Rocky in cotton sweats in the freezing cold of a Philadelphia winter, or stare at the wall of a basement on a trainer like Graeme Obree, but for most of us, having good gear makes a world of difference, whether in clothing or digital measurement and entertainment. So on this podcast we are talking about gear! We've got all the coaches cued up with hot picks, we are talking gear we know and love and recommend, as well as some pieces we do not own but are coveting.

How to be a faster cyclist: Focus on problems over products. In 1994, Graeme Obree successfully broke the world hour record on a homemade bicycle he'd put together with leftover scrap and some old bearings from a washing machine. Despite race officials attempting to block him intermittently as he rode around the track and the governing body trying to legislate him back into obscurity, this was a man who had the foresight to focus on the problem associated with going as fast as possible on a bike and the instincts to know how best to find a solution, no matter how radical. When it comes to getting faster, there's always a raft of cool equipment to buy or upgrade to. Sadly, if you were hoping I was going to recommend buying wheel X or handlebar Y in this podcast, you're going to be disappointed. Many thanks for the downloads and support.

The Tour d'Écosse picks up where it left off, in Ayr, or more to the point in a pub in Ayr where Lionel and Simon have just ordered a dessert pizza that would horrify Ciro Scognamiglio and, for that matter, all Italians. Then it's back on the road, past the golf courses that decorate the Ayrshire coast, on the roads that made the Girvan one of the toughest stage races in Britain, and via an extraordinary – if brief – Elvis impression by Simon. We sample the Killie Pie, talk Graeme Obree with Edward Pickering, author of the book The Race Against Time, and get our first glimpse of the Clyde as we arrive at Greenock Morton FC.

Quando Graeme Obree si presenta al velodromo di Hamar, in Norvegia, per sfidare il record dell'ora di un gigante come Francesco Moser in sella a una bicicletta fatta in casa, da lui stesso, riutilizzando vecchi telai e smontando pezzi della sua lavatrice, il mondo del ciclismo è basito. Tanto più che è uno scozzese che arriva dal nulla e fino a quel momento ha gareggiato solo in competizioni minori. Quel giorno, come ci raccontano anche Davide Cassani e Silvio Martinello, sportivi molto amati dagli appassionati delle due ruote, Obree saprà trasformare lo scetticismo in entusiasmo, entrando nella storia del ciclismo, a bordo della sua Old Faithful, la bici più veloce di sempre.
Dit is de 60e aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast, over sport, onderzoek en innovatie. In deze aflevering hebben Gerrit en Jurgen het over: Winst met wind: de perfecte stroomlijn op de fietsINLEIDING: Dat aerodynamica een belangrijke rol speelt op de fiets laat de historie van het wielrennen zien. Wat zijn de belangrijkste inzichten die de wetenschap hierbij heeft gebracht? En is het dus zinvol voor een recreant om een prijzige aerofiets aan te schaffen? Aan de hand van opmerkelijke vernieuwingen in de geschiedenis van het wielrennen duikt aflevering 60 van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast in de wondere wereld van luchtstromen op de fiets. Wie in het Wageningse huis waar Jan-Willem van Schip en Taco van der Hoorn wonen een bezoekje aan het toilet brengt, komt daar een krantenknipsel tegen over een zonderlinge Schotse wielrenner. Zijn naam: Graeme Obree, fietsenmaker van beroep en in 1993 out of the blue houder van het werelduurrecord op de fiets. Ook in de woonkamer hangt een foto van de Schot aan de muur. Waarom Obree en niet pak hem beet Joop Zoetemelk hét grote voorbeeld voor de twee Nederlandse renners is, heeft alles te maken met de baanbrekende aerodynamische inzichten die de Schot destijds in het wielrennen introduceerde. Zonder tekeningen, maar met een blauwdruk van de perfecte fiets in zijn hoofd werkte Obree maandenlang iedere zaterdag aan zijn recordfiets. Voor het frame vervormde hij Japanse buizen waarvan BMX-fietsen werden gefabriceerd en ontwierp een speciaal stuur, waar de Schot plat op lag om zo weinig mogelijk hinder van de luchtweerstand te hebben. Deze onorthodoxe houding had Obree afgekeken van de houding die skiërs tijdens de afdaling aannamen. Om de trapas bevestigde hij een kogellager die hij uit een afgedankte wasmachine sloopte en om gewicht te besparen gebruikte Obree een enkelzijdige vork aan de rechterzijde van het voorwiel. De wielen bevatten elk drie brede carbonfiber spaken en het vijf jaar oude zadel monteerde hij loodrecht boven het trapstel. Obree reed er knetterhard op. Op 17 juli 1993 verbrak de Schot in het Vikingskipet van Hamar het werelduurrecord dat Francesco Moser negen jaar eerder in Mexico van Eddy Merckx had afgepakt. De prestatie van Obree wordt gezien als het ultieme voorbeeld dat juiste kennis van aerodynamica het verschil kan maken in de wielersport. Hoe deze kennis anno nu wordt vergaard en slim door jou op de fiets kan worden toegepast bespreken Gerrit, Jurgen en Guido in de 60e aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast.

Obree is one of the most unique cyclists in the world. Famous for his Hour Records on hand built bikes constructed with washing machine parts, and disrupting and aggravating the UCI's rules and regulations, he's a man who's influence is far more wide-reaching than you might imagine.Simon Bromley sat down with Graeme at the launch of Endura's latest winter kit – this is an interview you do not want to miss.

Vendredi 12 juillet, à l'occasion de la 7e étape Belfort - Chalon-sur-Saône, la plus longue de ce Tour 2019, l'écrivain se souvient d'un certain "Brian Robinson, dont le nom est inscrit sur le British Cycling Hall of Fame aux côtés de celui de Tom Simpson, Robert Millar, Graeme Obree ou Sean Yates". "Brian Robinson découvre le Tour de France en 1955. Il roule sur cycle Hercule et devient le premier Britannique à terminer le Tour. Il remporte l'étape Saint-Brieuc - Brest et en 1959 l'étape Annecy - Chalon-sur-Saône"... avec 20 minutes d'avance sur le peloton.
Graeme Obree was the one hour record holder as well as a 2x Pursuit world champion. His story is one of being self made as well as struggling against rules, governing bodies, and social nonacceptance. Take his story and help it guide you to why your riding.His biography and his movie The Flying Scottsman are a great read or watch. They tell his story of the path to his one hour record. The latest movie Battle Mountain, tells the story of the struggles to beat the human powered speed record.We get in to what you need to do to pitch a sponsor to support you.

THE HOUR. Those two words represent many things to many people. Some believe it to be the ultimate test of man and machine: out there on the track, with nowhere to hide, an athlete must come to terms with what he or she is truly capable of. Others know it as a form of torture, a crucible for understanding one’s ability to cope with pain, suffering, or madness. If you’re lucky, the Hour is a hard way to reach a form of cycling-inspired, dizzying nirvana. Many of the greatest cyclists in history have made attempts or held the Hour record. Most of them then crawled off their bikes never to ride on a track again. With UCI rule changes several years ago came a resurgence in interest in the event. Eventually, Bradley Wiggins smashed the record, hitting 54.526 kilometers in June 2015. And the obsession lives on. There are few people in the world who know both the agony and ecstasy of the Hour as well as Colby Pearce, our main guest today and someone who has attempted more Hour records than almost anyone else, save for maybe the great Graeme Obree. Last week, Pearce set a new master’s world record in the 45-49 age category, riding a remarkable 50.245 kilometers, 833 meters farther than the previous record held by Kent Bostick. In this episode, we sat down with Pearce to dive deep into the Hour. It’s something Case knows all too well, since he too made an attempt in 2015. In addition to their personal experiences, in this episode, you’ll hear a discussion of: A brief history of the Hour Why it’s so hard and, therefore, special. Is it the hardest thing you can do on a bike? We ask the question. It then jumps into a discussion on how to prepare for the Hour: The 80/20 principle and getting caught up in numbers Training at 90 percent of threshold The importance of focusing on form The crucial mental preparation it takes to tackle this event Then, gear and aerodynamics, from frontal area to the finest of gains to be had from chain friction to sock length. Finally, we break it down. Ultimately, it all comes down to executing on the track: The nuances of pacing, and the dynamic of the track, the rhythm, and the added forces Gearing and cadence Mindset: chunking, and proactive vs. reactive thought patterns Pearce’s wealth of knowledge on the Hour is unsurpassed, and we’ll hear a lot from him in this episode. We’re also lucky enough to hear from two other Hour veterans. When Case was preparing for his Hour attempt in 2015, he had the pleasure of chatting with Rohan Dennis, who briefly held the Hour record that year. (As an aside, just days ago Dennis won the world time trial championship in Innsbruck.) Back in 2015, Case also spoke with Dennis’s coach, Neal Henderson. Both of them have interesting thoughts on the Hour. So, zip up the excruciatingly tight skinsuit. Check to make sure your power meter is on. Pull the aero socks high. It’s Hour Record week at Fast Talk. Let’s make you fast.
In July 1993, Scotsman Graeme Obree broke cycling’s prestigious world hour record – riding on a home-made bike nicknamed “Old Faithful”. The revolutionary design, which included parts of a washing machine, helped Obree cover more than 51 kilometres in 60 minutes. He talks to Ian Williams.

For the 100th Giro d'Italia, Ian Parkinson gets the views of pros and ex-pros on chasing the Maglia Rosa and dealing with the tifosi. David Millar "When you do the Giro it feels like you're part of a circus and you're one of the animals..." Jens Voigt "They cheer you if you're winning the stage, and if you're dead last they still shout at you, I love that..." Plus Alex Dowsett and Megan Guarnier. And a fascinating interview with the ultimate cycling maverick Graeme Obree - on training, doping, why team pursuit bikes should be shorter and his life philosophy "First priority, riding the bike. I avoid car ownership and I avoid expensive hobbies because that would mean further work, and that's time that could be riding a bike". All that, and the Rouleur competition.

In this episode, we temporarily crawl out of our off-season funk and Night-Nurse induced drug haze to bring you all manner of nonsense currently swirling around in our brains. In the purest example of self-generating content, we talk about what happened when we talked to someone! Not just any someone, however, only just flippin' Graeme Obree, who we had the pleasure of interviewing during a Q & A session at Ronde in Edinburgh a couple of weeks ago. We made mention of the excellent Eddlestone via Shiplaw blog by Andy Shaw, who took some great pictures of Graeme on the night. We discuss the strange "forgotten man" tag that surrounds Carlos Sastre, and come to the conclusion that it is neither accurate or deserved. Finally, we chat through the recent Change Cycling Now conference and the resultant Charter of the Willing which they published. Is it the catalyst for change or the catalyst which will result in the true catalyst for change emerging?
