In dieser Folge nehmen wir euch mit auf eine spannende Reise durch die Welt des Gravel-Rennsports – und zwar direkt aus dem Sattel von Peter Büsch, einem der erfahrensten und leidenschaftlichsten Fahrer unserer Szene. Gemeinsam tauchen wir tief ein in den Alltag eines Elite-Amateurs, sprechen über Trainingsphilosophien, Ernährungssünden (oder deren Vermeidung), und die Herausforderungen auf dem Weg zur Gravel-Europameisterschaft. Wir diskutieren, was den Unterschied zwischen Jedermann und Profi wirklich ausmacht, warum Erfahrung manchmal wichtiger ist als pure Wattzahlen, und wie sich der Radsport durch Social Media und Lifestyle-Trends verändert hat. Mit ehrlichen Einblicken, lustigen Alltagsstorys und jeder Menge Leidenschaft zeigen wir, warum jede Ausrede zählt – und warum Gravel weit mehr ist als nur Schotter unter den Reifen. Schaltet ein für Inspiration, Fachwissen und beste Unterhaltung aus der Welt des Radsports! www.wattasia.de

Der Gelände-Besenwagen hat neue Reifen. Damit geht es durch das kurvenreiche und ruppige Terrain eines Privateers. Glamour und Sonnenschein sind nicht enthalten – auch wenn manche das mit dem Begriff verbinden. Simon führt euch am Beispiel seines Beifahrers durch die Unwägbarkeiten eines Selbstständigen im Sportbusiness.

Der Besenwagen funkelt in der Schwanenstädter Sonne. Auf der Zielgeraden der österreichischen Meisterschaft im Straßenrennen pinselt Mario Rossmann die Linie auf den Asphalt, dirigiert anschließend mit dem Malwerkzeug die Feuerwehr und rollt dabei die Sektflaschen die Ehrentribüne hoch. Als Veranstalter des Rennens hat er alle Hände voll zu tun, während Lokalmatador und Traka-Sieger Lukas Pöstlberger am Wochenende die Beine sprechen lassen will.

The Colesburg Back 40 began in 1993 as a training race for the then 10=year-old mountain bike race: The Chequamegon 40. But as can happen with a beautiful, fun, challenging and well run event... it's stuck around for the past 33 years! Today we talk with current race directors Sunny Carithers and Michael Lambert about what makes the race fun and unique as well as what brings them joy in seeing so many people experience the beauty of the Northeast Iowa Driftless Region. Join them by registering or volunteering at www.colesburgback40.com or look them up on facebook or instagram.

Nino Schurter hardly needs an introduction. Widely considered the greatest XCO mountain bike racer of all time, he's won 10 World Championships, nine World Cup overalls, and Olympic bronze, silver, and gold medals. Having retired from World Cup racing at the end of last year, he's been dipping a toe into gravel racing in 2026. In this conversation, Nino talks to Payson about his longevity in the sport and his undefeated 2017 season. He also dives into how his passion for product development and testing led to some of the most transformative innovations in the sport, and shares his perspective on gravel racing as a relative newcomer.Instagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveenEmail: howdy@withpace.cc

Der Besenwagen Gravel fährt nach einer stressigen ersten Saisonhälfte auf der Autobahn rechts ran, der Auspuff knistert und die Reifen sind noch warm. Paul und Simon blicken auf eine Vielzahl von Rennen zurück: Sie erzählen, warum es Paul in Polen den Stecker gezogen hat, reden wirklich ein letztes Mal über das Unbound und besprechen, welche Highlights diese Saison noch auf uns warten. Simon bringt die Eifel als das Gravel-Capital Deutschlands ins Rennen und Paul hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, am Nürburgring ein Radrennen in jeder erdenklichen Disziplin zu gewinnen. Die beiden geben einen Einblick in die Streckenplanung der Gravel-DM und Paul verrät ein paar Tipps, mit welchem Equipment man es zum deutschen Meistertitel schaffen kann. Während Paul die kommenden Wochen mit Erholung, Training und Privateer-Angelegenheiten verbringt, geht's für Simon bald zum Bikepacken in die Dolomiten. Und ob dort häufiger die Kreditkarte oder die Isomatte zum Einsatz kommt, erfahrt ihr in der neuen Folge „Besenwagen Gravel“.

In der neuesten Folge unseres Podcasts blicken wir zurück auf die emotionalen und sportlichen Achterbahnen der letzten Wochen. Martin und Leona berichten frisch von ihren jüngsten Ultra-Events in Italien und Spanien - von sportlichen Höhepunkten, unerwarteten Rückschlägen durch Fieber und familiäre Notfälle sowie der großen Frage, was uns mental eigentlich antreibt.Das sind die Themen dieser Runde:Italy Divide & familiäre Realität: Martin berichtet von seinem starken Start bei der Italy Divide Classic ab Pompeji und über den Vesuv. Doch mitten im Rennen holt ihn das Leben ein: Nach einem Sturz seines Vaters bricht er ab, um für seine Eltern da zu sein, und reflektiert dabei auch über die bürokratischen Hürden des deutschen Pflegesystems.Fieberdelirium in Spanien: Leona war beim Kromvojoj in Katalonien unterwegs. Trotz einer perfekten Ausgangslage als erste Frau im Feld zwingt sie hohes Fieber bei Kilometer 1000 zum DNF. Sie teilt ihre Learnings über das Überwinden von Schwarz-Weiß-Denken im Rennen und warum Aufgeben manchmal die gesündere Entscheidung ist.Die Psychologie des Ultra-Cycling: Simon bringt das Beispiel einer YouTube-Racesimulation ein, bei der drei Influencer krachend scheitern. Wir diskutieren, warum die mentale Stabilität im Kopf oft entscheidender ist als das teuerste Carbonrad und wie sich die Wahrnehmung von Distanzen und Höhenmetern über die Jahre verschiebt.No Podium, No Glory & der Reiz des Gruppetto: Ein Blick auf den Trend hin zu abenteuerorientierten Events ohne Podestplätze wie dem Transylvanian Trail oder Orbit 360. Simon plädiert außerdem dafür, im Social-Media-Game der Event-Veranstalter endlich mehr Scheinwerferlicht auf die inspirierenden Geschichten ganz hinten am Cut-off zu werfen.Viel Spaß beim Hören!ShownotesLeona auf Instagram https://www.instagram.com/heimatnomadin/Simon auf Instagram https://www.instagram.com/simonpatur/Quelle MusikTexas Napkin aus dem YT Creator StudioQuelle BilderKI generiert / Martin Moschek

The guys talk about the High Limit race at Eagle, Discuss the Richard Childress Press conference from Michigan, Recap Michigan, and more.Then in Turn 2 and Turn 3 they republish their 2017 interviews with David Gravel and Johnny Gibson.

Send Me a Text MessageIn this short solo episode, host Tom Butler walks through the build of his newest bike: the Otso Warakin TI, a titanium gravel bike spec'd to be a true do-everything machine. This isn't a review. With only a handful of miles on the bike so far, it's an honest look at the decisions Tom made and why, the ones he feels confident about and the ones he'll have to wait and see on.Tom gets into why he wanted a third bike in the first place, why he chose titanium over carbon, steel, and aluminum, and how a walk into Northwest Tri and Bike in Enumclaw short-circuited his careful shopping plan. Along the way he covers the Wolf Tooth roots of Otso, the carbon fork, the wheels, the Redshift shock stem, 50mm Schwalbe tires, the oval chainring, the 1x12 drivetrain, and the Shimano GRX 800 groupset. He also shares some fresh news that took a little wind out of his sails: Otso has discontinued the Warakin's Tuning Chip system in favor of UDH compatibility. It's a build episode for the bike nerds, grounded in the idea that the right bike is the one that doesn't limit where you can ride.Become a member of the Cycling Over Sixty Strava Club!  www.strava.com/clubs/CyclingOverSixtyCycling Over Sixty is also on Zwift.  Look for our Zwift club!NOTE: I share information about my journey.

Peter Gibbs and the Gardeners' Question Time panel visit Diss, on the Norfolk–Suffolk border, where heavy clay soils meet some of the driest conditions in the country; a combination that keeps gardeners firmly on their toes.Peter is joined by Bob Flowerdew on his home turf, alongside Christine Walkden and Bunny Guinness as they answer questions from a live audience. They advise on improving your strike rate with cuttings, diagnosing sooty mould on camellias, and deciding whether a bay tree is best kept in a pot, or given room to roam.Along the way, the panel also explore how to turn a tired lawn into a stylish, drought‑resistant gravel garden, debate whether lavender really needs feeding, and suggest small spring‑flowering trees that can deliver a real seasonal show.Later in the show, Bob shares hard‑won lessons from gardening in East Anglia, offering practical tips on coping with drought and making the most of every drop of water.Producer: Matt Smith

Men's Alliance is hard to explain until you've been there.It's cold rain, gravel workouts, ridiculous call signs, guys puking during workouts, and fires that somehow stay lit in a downpour. But underneath all the funny stories is something deeper: men learning how to be real, how to lead, how to pray, how to confess, how to celebrate wins, and how to carry each other through life.In this episode, the guys swap some of their favorite tribe stories—from brutal workouts and hilarious call signs to unforgettable moments around the fire where men opened up about marriage, prayer, suicide, sin, victory, and faith.This is the stuff that turns strangers into brothers.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Explore Battlefield Coaching today and find yourself a Coach with experience overcoming a battle you are currently facing - https://battlefieldcoaching.comOrder the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador's Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV

Perfect for gravel enthusiasts looking to deepen their understanding and get inspired by the sport's top athletes and experts. In this episode, we delve into the latest in gravel racing, bike tech, and racing strategies, featuring insights from top riders and industry experts. We cover race experiences, bike setups, and the evolving landscape of gravel and road racing.

This week, Si and Dan are diving into the controversy surrounding the UCI's strict 6.8kg minimum bike weight rule after one rider was disqualified for being just 20 grams underneath it! They're also wrapping up the biggest tech talking points and wild tactics from Unbound Gravel, looking at the rise of the massive 32-inch wheel standard (?!), and debate night-time cycling visibility. PLUS a really quite exceptional Super Nugget for the 16 who make it there!

We dive into the controversial Scott prototype at Unbound, argue over what makes the perfect gravel bike, and reveal the top picks from our new Road Bike Buyer's Guide. Last week Josh missed the pod, but this week it's Logan Jones-Wilkins' turn. He is currently on the ground in Emporia, Kansas for Unbound 2026, but his Starlink connection failed. That leaves host Mike Levy, Lisa Charlebois, and Josh Ross to hold down the fort. Without Logan to set the record straight, the crew dives into the newly released Specialized Crux. Things quickly get heated as Charlebois and Ross defend nimble gravel bikes with 40mm tires, while Levy argues we all need slacker front ends and suspension. Plus, Levy shares his newfound love for the Garmin 1040 Solar, which leads to a shocking confession from Lisa about how she listens to music on ultra-rides. We also analyze the massive 32-inch wheels Cam Jones and Robin Gemperle are racing on their Scott prototypes at Unbound, and finally, Josh breaks down his testing methodology and top picks for the 2026 Road Bike Buyer's Guide. In This Episode: 00:00:00 Intro 00:01:13 a mini review of the Garmin 1040 Solar   00:09:53 Music and headphones on the ride 00:14:20 Unbound and Cam Jones riding a 32-inch bike 00:22:34 Reader questions  00:29:14 Road bike buyers guide 00:45:26 Specialized Crux initial discussion
