En este programa de hablo de las propuestas que tiene Kiprun preparadas para 2026.Esencialmente, para trail tendremos 3 familias:-Kipsummit, 3 modelos 'todo terreno'-Kipclimb, 2 modelos 'off road' o más técnicos-Gravel, 4 modelos, de los cuales 3, incluye ese término en su nombre.Sin duda, todas las gamas ofrecen interesantes propuestas, pero a mi juicio, es la Kipsummit la más relevante, al ofrecer los primeros modelos de Kiprun equipados con suela Vibram.De hecho, la corredora francesa Blandine L´Hirondel, ganó la Diagonale des Fous (2025) llevando en los pies dos de estos modelos.Contacto:juan@ellaboratoriodejuan.com

C'est une « sortie » à vélo qui aura duré trois ans. À bord de son Gravel – un vélo mi-route mi-VTT, Meryem Belkihel 30 ans, a réussi le pari un peu fou de faire un tour d'Afrique, seule. 34 000 km parcourus, 33 pays traversés, la jeune Marocaine a finalement achevé son aventure début novembre 2025, à Madagascar. Elle voulait « découvrir l'Afrique », comprendre les pressions exercées sur l'écologie, rencontrer ses voisines et voisins de continent, montrer à qui la croisait sur son passage qu'on peut vivre ses rêves, en étant une femme, seule. Meryem Belkihel raconte son périple militant. De notre correspondante à Antananarivo, Sourire vissé au visage, Meryem Belkihel savoure ses premières journées depuis trois ans sans pédaler. À ses poignets, plusieurs dizaines de bracelets, souvenirs peu encombrants qui lui ont été offerts au fil de ses rencontres.« Celui-là, je l'ai eu en Éthiopie. Celui-ci, c'est, ici, Madagascar. Ça, c'est la Tanzanie, lui, le Kenya, l'Ouganda, l'Afrique du Sud, le Burundi, le Zimbabwe, celui-là l'Eswatini et ça, c'est Mozambique. » Son périple à vélo, elle l'a documenté. Caméra embarquée, drone, elle a filmé ses traversées solitaires et ses découvertes, parfois choquantes. « Le changement climatique, je voulais voir ça de près. L'impact sur notre continent, sur l'Afrique. Et partager aussi parce qu'on voit ça beaucoup, mais parfois, on se dit " Mais non ! Ce n'est pas réel ! », on trouve des excuses. « Là par exemple, c'est une vidéo que j'ai prise à l'est du Cameroun. Ces tronçonneuses que vous entendez, ce sont celles de gens qui travaillent pour une grande société qui coupe les arbres de plus que 100 ans pour les envoyer à l'étranger, en Europe et en Chine. Et là ça m'a choqué parce que pour couper un arbre, il faut en abattre 20 autres. Et ça, c'est tous les jours dans cette forêt du Cameroun. Même chose pour la République centrafricaine. » La jeune femme, informaticienne à Casablanca, avoue avoir semé la gêne dans son entourage : « Les gens ne me comprenaient pas. Ce que j'ai fait, ce n'est pas dans notre culture. On me trouvait bizarre. Mon désir de partir seule, ça a choqué ma famille, mes amis. On me demandait de rester, d'acheter une maison, une voiture, me marier, avoir des enfants. Non ! Moi, je voulais donner de l'espoir aux femmes et aussi donner l'exemple d'une femme marocaine, africaine ! » Un mental renforcé par les épreuves Meryem nous montre sur son téléphone un échange animé, qu'elle a filmé durant son périple : « Là, c'est une vidéo que j'ai tournée quand je suis arrivée au Ghana. J'étais en train de parler avec un vendeur dans un magasin de vélo, pour essayer de réparer mon dérailleur et là, il y a quelqu'un qui était juste à côté. Il a commencé à dire : " Non non non, ce que tu racontes n'est pas vrai, arrête de mentir ! Ce n'est pas possible de venir du Maroc et parcourir plus que 6 000 km à vélo ! " Bah, je lui ai dit, « Je suis Marocaine. Si toi, tu n'es pas fort, moi, je le suis et je peux le faire ! » Les galères, raconte-t-elle, elle en a vécu. Partout. Crevaisons. Casse. Pépins de santé. Chaque épreuve a contribué à renforcer un peu plus son mental d'acier : « J'ai eu quatre fois le palu, j'ai eu la typhoïde, j'ai eu beaucoup d'infections dentaires. Mon visage a été gonflé comme si j'avais pris du botox » rit-elle. « J'étais au milieu de la jungle, au Cameroun. Il y avait un centre de soin, sans eau ni électricité. C'était fou. Mais je n'ai jamais eu l'idée de dire "j'arrête, je n'en peux plus". J'ai appris durant ce voyage que si quelque chose arrive, "it is what it is". Ça m'a appris à rester toujours positive, à apprendre que chaque problème a une solution et que tout est possible. » Marquée, elle le restera. Par l'hospitalité des Guinéens, par la solidarité et la bienveillance des Malgaches, la beauté des paysages de Namibie, du Nigeria, de l'Angola. De retour au Maroc, elle a déjà prévu la suite : écrire un livre, monter le documentaire de son aventure avec les centaines d'heures de rush, et qui sait, reprendre un jour son vélo pour se rendre au point le plus au nord de la planète.

How do you embrace progress without losing the soul that made a sport special in the first place? That's the question we toy with in this episode. We are experiencing a strange déjà vu as athletes in two niche sports going mainstream. CrossFit exploded during the 2014-2018 years, which were also our most competitive as athletes. And now gravel is following a similar arc. In this episode, we look at the parallels we've experienced firsthand. Both CrossFit and Gravel Biking began as a countercultural resistance to the more serious and overproduced mainstream versions of their sport. CrossFit grew from gritty garage gyms to a global spectacle with the rise of the CrossFit Games, title sponsors, and a flood of new unaffiliated athletes. Gravel was once a quiet, adventure-driven niche and is now full of pro teams, big-money races, aero arms races, and media attention. It's a conversation about culture, values, commercialization, and nostalgia. We unpack why these shifts feel emotional, even when growth brings better racing, safer events, and more opportunity for everyone.

Joe Laverick was one of the standout British talents through his junior years and earned a place on one of the top development teams in cycling: Hagens Berman Axeon. He spent two seasons there under the guidance of the world-renowned Axel Merckx.Joe had hoped to make the jump to the WorldTour, but things didn't fall into place, and he found himself without a contract at the end of 2022 — facing an uncertain future.Instead of walking away, Joe built something completely different: a one-man privateer project that blends road racing, time trialling and gravel, fuelled by spreadsheets, sponsors, side clients and a serious obsession with marginal gains.Joe lifts the curtain on:What it actually costs to race as a privateer (race budget, travel, equipment)Why you need to be more than “just a bike racer” in 2025Balancing being a rider, writer, team owner, sponsor-hunter, soigneur and logistics managerHow he uses products like the Castelli Gabba R and new gravel kit – and why honest feedback mattersThe learning curve of gravel: tyre pressure, technical skills and why it's an “untapped jigsaw of performance”200+ days on the road in the US gravel scene, host housing, burnout, and finding balanceWhy enjoyment is the ultimate performance metric, and his advice for young riders choosing between the pro pathway and privateer lifeWe wrap up with Joe's dream Girona loop over Sant Hilari and Montseny – a 6.5-hour, 180–200 km that he still calls one of the best rides in the world.– LINKS –Joe Laverickhttps://www.instagram.com/joe.laverick/https://www.strava.com/athletes/7026027Sant Hilari Ridehttps://www.strava.com/activities/10469253051Castelli SOGhttps://www.castelli-cycling.com/spirit-of-gravelMen's Unlimited Gravel Collection:⁠https://www.castelli-cycling.com/IT/en/Men/Collection/Unlimited/c/Man-Col-Unl⁠Women's Unlimited Gravel Collection:⁠https://www.castelli-cycling.com/IT/en/Woman/Collection/Unlimited/c/Wom-Col-Unl⁠Castelli's Xmas Ride, Nov 29:Overview | ⁠https://www.strava.com/clubs/66959⁠Italy | Signup form: https://www.castelli-cycling.com/castelli-unlimited-christmas-ride-2025CHAPTERS00:00 – Intro, Castelli Christmas Gravel Ride & Spirit of Gravel Cabal02:00 – Who is Joe Laverick?

Hablemos de Ultradistancia y hablemos de Bike Packing... o ¿no es lo mismo? Son conceptos parecidos, similares, que se complementan entre sí pero no son exactamente lo mismo.  Para ello contamos con Borja Gascón de Construyendo Ultraciclismo para hablar del tema y que nos desglose mejor qué aspectos caracterizan cada una de las disciplinas: material, set up de la bici, mindset del propio ciclista, días de ruta o cómo afrontar la misma. Seguimos añadiendo mini secciones en los episodios bisemanales para crear comunidad gravel. A veces habalmos de lo que se empieza a conocer como "el Fast Gravel" para esas carreras más cortas o competitivas o, por otro lado, como lo que algunos llaman la "Esencia del gravel" con ese concepto un poco más aventurero y explorador... ¿Al fin y al cabo, quiénes somos nosotros para catalogar cada cosa? ¡Nos vemos y/o nos escuchamos el martes que viene!

It is finally time to talk big tires.The subject is all the rage these days, but we've been here for a while – riding our thick gravel tires on rigid drop bar bikes for years. Nevertheless, we are intrigued by a lot of what is coming to the discourse, especially some of the quantitative testing we are seeing from certain corners of the internet. Most notably, John Karrasch, a.k.a @flexfitbyjohn on Instagram.The bike fitter, a turned-off-road rolling resistance guru, has refined a form of the Chung method for testing to objectively measure the rolling resistance of countless tires, posting comprehensible graphs that demonstrate the comparative value of each. Karrasch also has a Patreon where he goes deeper into the data and breaks down the nuances of the different traits of the tires he tests.Now, he is a niche-expert who has become a legend in the small corner of the internet that is interested in going fast on gravel. He is also a frequent pen pal with the Rodeo Labs crew, so we had to have him on the podcast to really get into the nitty-gritty details.If you want to learn more about John's testing, check out his Patreon account here.Logan has also written some pretty detailed stories on the subject. Here is a story he did for Cycling Weekly on some of his favorite options.Hosts: Logan Jones-Wilkins, Drew Van Kampen, Stephen FitzgeraldGuest: John Karrasch Hosted on Acast.

In this first Delirious W.E.S.T. 2026 check-in, I catch up with the always-positive Kylie Bell — and wow, she's had a month! From tackling a tough gravel marathon in the Stirling Ranges (complete with nearly 900m of vert and a sneaky brush with dehydration) to bouncing back from pneumonia, Kylie has had her share of plot twists.  We chat about the mental side of training when things don't go to plan, her stair-repeat session at Shazza's (462 steps… she's counted!), why time-on-feet matters more than chasing monster weekly kilometres, and the pure grit that keeps ultrarunners showing up even when life throws a spanner in the works. Kylie also shares her simple approach to strength training, her plan heading into Ultra Trail Kosciuszko, and her hilarious “beer credits” system for post-race holidays.  She might feel underdone, but honestly? She's tougher than she gives herself credit for — and we'll all be cheering her on.

He'll be the first to point out that it's masters world champion, but a win's a win and he has more gravel world championship titles than I do! Probably more than you too ;)   Nicolas Roche has plenty of good stories to tell and lots of great insight from his years in pro cycling. As a World Tour racer to the trenches of a gravel race -- the literal trenches, as he broke his hip earlier this year -- Nico's year has not been easy, but he's ended on a high note.

Sure, we've reviewed the fastest World Tour aero road bikes and the newest gravel machines, but what about an off-road capable folding bike? Variety is the spice of life, and Velo tech editor Alvin Holbrook has been getting spicy on Brompton's G Line, a bike that should be more capable than any of the legendary UK brand's previous offerings, thanks to larger wheels and much better tires and brakes. Alvin rode the G Line on his usual gravel test loop and reports back on how it performed and what type of rider it makes the most sense for. Would you wear AI on your face? Josh Ross has been in the shape of Oakley's new – and very expensive – Vanguard glasses that come with a video camera, mic and headphones, and a connection to artificial intelligence that's ready to answer *almost* any question you might have. Josh answers our questions, without any AI help, about what the Vanguards are like to live with, why they might have the best mic and headphones for cycling, and explains how they can actually cost less than buying separate glasses, headphones, and a camera. Levy has that new bike fizz after buying an Allied Able and shares some of his early ride impressions, as well as how it compares to his much-loved Santa Cruz Stigmata that he's lived on for the previous two years.

Noirvember keeps rolling with Helmut Käutner's Black Gravel (1961), a scalding portrait of postwar Germany buried under guilt, corruption, and American occupation. Mike is joined by Andrew Nette and Samm Deighan to dig into this bleak anti-Heimatfilm, where gravel trucker Robert Neidhardt (Helmut Wildt) scrapes by on the black market and rekindles an affair with Inge (Ingmar Zeisberg), now married to a U.S. officer. When an accident turns deadly, their secret unearths a moral wasteland of complicity and denial. Once condemned by the Oberhausen critics as “the worst achievement by an established director,” Käutner's film now stands as a bold, unflinching noir that dared to confront the rot beneath Germany's economic miracle.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Mike is joined by Andrew Nette and Samm Deighan to dig into this bleak anti-Heimatfilm, where gravel trucker Robert Neidhardt (Helmut Wildt) scrapes by on the black market and rekindles an affair with Inge (Ingmar Zeisberg), now married to a U.S. officer. When an accident turns deadly, their secret unearths a moral wasteland of complicity and denial. Once condemned by the Oberhausen critics as “the worst achievement by an established director,” Käutner's film now stands as a bold, unflinching noir that dared to confront the rot beneath Germany's economic miracle.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

This week's episode is packed with racing, travel, and adventure! Mark and Caroline dive into the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championships — the first time this event lands in Europe, hosted in Marbella, Spain. They break down the course specifics, including the challenging hilly bike route that could shape the results. Will this terrain favour the stronger climbers? They also look at the female pros coming straight from Kona — will fatigue and travel impact their form over the shorter distance? And with several short-course specialists lining up, could we see a few surprise performances from athletes who are fresh, fearless, and ready to shake up the field? Caroline shares her experience winning the first-ever UCI Gravel Race in Thailand, before the pair reflect on visiting the Kanchanaburi War Memorial and the infamous Bridge over the River Kwai — a moving historical stop on their travels. They also talk about Thailand's incredible cycling conditions: smooth roads, minimal traffic, and endless training potential. The adventure continues as Mark and Caroline begin their first week in Nepal, training and preparing to tackle the Manaslu Circuit — a stunning, lesser-known trekking route reaching over 5,200 m altitude. Their goal? To run/hike the entire circuit in under a week (because of course they would!). Finally, they highlight the Peak Education Nepal charity, meeting the children and families whose lives are changing through listener donations. It's an inspiring segment that shows the real-world impact of community and compassion. Tune in for racing analysis, adventure stories, and a healthy dose of perspective from two athletes living life on the move.Enjoy! 

Tech editor Alvin Holbrook fires up Velo's crystal ball to make some predictions about what the road and gravel world might look like in 2026. He makes his case for peak tire width combined with improved casings, more integrated pressure-monitoring systems (and more batteries), Chinese gravel bikes shaking up the market, and the continued slow demise of 2X drivetrains. But is he channelling Edgar Cayce, or are his divinations more in line with Miss Cleo? Josh, Alvin, and Levy also discuss how prepared they are (or aren't) for a mid-ride disaster, and the crew describes their own go-to repair kit that they each bring on every single ride. Also, when is it best to just call someone to come pick you up? Want to join Josh on his Zwift group ride? See the info here. See more episodes of the Velo Podcast here.

In this week's news show, Jack Luke is reunited with Simon von Bromley to unpick this week's biggest tech stories in cycling. First up is Merida's new Mission gravel bike, which comes with just 40mm of tyre clearance. Is that enough for a modern gravel race bike? We're not so sure.  The pair then discuss a set of wild prototype gravel rims designed by Dangerholm, and Q36.5's new ultra-low stack height pedal system made in partnership with SRM. Following that, the pair cover last week's top story on BikeRadar – the news that men may be facing a testosterone crisis, why this could be affecting their health, and what men can do about it. They then finish with our rant of the week, which sees Simon addressing some of the comments on one of our recent videos. Does bike tech matter to pros? Simon says yes, even if he agrees cycling isn't Formula 1. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

With the inaugural edition of Gravel Burn in the rearview mirror, Payson sits down with Bradyn Lange for an overall recap. Due to illness, Bradyn wasn't able to compete in the pro field and instead dropped in partway through the seven-day event to capture some media from inside the bunch. Then, Payson, chats with Dan Craven, a former professional road racer from Namibia who served as Gravel Burn commissaire. He talks about his long-standing involvement with the event and his unique perspective on how it unfolded. This episode was brought to you by TrainingPeaks.Instagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveen Email: howdy@withpace.cc

Stage 6 of Gravel Burn did not go according to plan. Strong winds led to treacherous conditions, and after Swiss rider Andri Frischknecht suffered a crash due to high crosswinds, the 144-kilometre stage was neutralised. To recap the day, Payson is joined by South African rider Hayley Preen, who is currently sitting in third place in the GC. They talk about the weather out on course, what it was like to slow roll the rest of the stage after the decision was made to neutralise it, and what they're anticipating for tomorrow's seventh and final stage. This episode was made possible by TrainingPeaks.

Campagnolo's Super Record X evolved from their 13-speed wireless road drivetrain and employs an off-road-specific rear derailleur with their Nano Clutch and race-focused gearing, but can it compete against GRX and Red? Velo tech editor Josh Ross explains the just-released Italian gruppo and their new, 50mm tall Bora gravel wheels. Alvin was at Rivian's launch of their (questionably named) Also TM-B e-bike and has all the details of this tech-heavy city rig. The Also employs a pedal-by-wire belt drive system, magnesium housing with TWO motors, an inverted suspension fork, and a car-like regenerative braking feature, but Levy wants to know if it will ever be available or if it's destined for vaporware status? Lastly, the crew digs into Josh's comprehensive indoor trainer buyer's guide, including the least expensive smart trainer that makes sense, why you should consider buying used, haptics and other add-ons, and what his price-no-object indoor setup might look like. They also share their tricks for making indoor rides "fun." Further reading I've ridden 32,000 Miles on Indoor Trainers. These Are the Best Ones.

Jeez, that Dave and Ronan can sure ramble on about a new groupset. Indeed, this week's Geek Warning has the geeks geeking over Campagnolo's much-awaited release of 1x13 wireless. They chat about what's new, the limitations of a single chainring for general road riding, and why the future for the iconic Italian manufacturer seems brighter.While that chat may be a little premium for some tastes, the rest of the episode is all about more practical things.

Stage 5 of Gravel Burn was slow despite being more than 50% paved, and it finished on a 2500-foot climb. Tom Pidcock took the stage win and joins Payson to recap the day. They also discuss the logistics of his Il Lombardia / UCI Gravel Worlds double-header earlier this month, why he decided to take a break from his off season to come to South Africa, and how he chooses which events and disciplines to put on his schedule. This episode was made possible by TrainingPeaks.Gravel Burn GC standings after stage 5:Women: 1.

Stage 4 of Gravel was 111 kilometres of near-constant headwind. Payson is joined by Speed Company duo Lukas Baum and Georg Eggers to get the lowdown on their moves that shook up the race early and how Lukas's flat impacted his third-place GC position. Lukas and Georg have been friends since they raced as juniors. After becoming XC Junior World Champion in 2013, however, Lucas fell out of love with the sport and quit altogether. It was Georg who convinced him to start again in 2022, this time on a two-person team and focusing on stage races. In their first attempt at the Cape Epic, they won, and it set them and their brand new, barely funded team on a new path. They tell Payson about how grassroots it all was in the beginning and why they chose to focus on marathon and stage racing. Plus, Lukas has an axe to grind with American gravel.This episode is sponsored by TrainingPeaks.Instagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveen Email: howdy@withpace.cc

Miguel Crawford started hosting friends and then friends of friends on gravel rides throughout Sonoma County in the mid-1990s. Now he's just wrapped up his 28th year of hosting the Grasshopper Adventure Series, and best yet, he just wrapped up his first Megahopper. The Megahoppier is a route I first rode in 2021 and I was back this year for the first Grand Depart, the first mass start of this event. 414 miles across Sonoma County with trips in Lake, Marin, and Napa Counties as well. What an adventure. Check out Grasshopper Adventure Series and specifically the Megahopper, here Thanks Matt Scarborough and Bicycle Accident Law Try AGZ by visiting drinkAG1.com/tedking

Stage 3 of Gravel Burn was rough and tactical. Simon Pellaud, who has raced in just about every corner of the world this season and is hot off his second-place finish in the Life Time Grand Prix, took the stage win over Matt Beers and is currently sitting in second in the GC. He joins Payson to talk about how the stage played out, his strategy for securing the win, and the crash he witnessed. Thank you to TrainingPeaks for making this episode possible.Instagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveen Email: howdy@withpace.cc

Stage two of Gravel Burn was 108 kilometres from Avontuur to Willowmore and it was much drier than yesterday.

Stage 1 of Gravel Burn is done and dusted -- a cold, rainy 84 kilometers with a spicy 2,000+ meters of climbing. Payson is joined by French gravel national champions Axelle Dubau-Prévot and Hugo Drechou to break down the race. Despite viewing this trip more as a holiday than anything else, Axelle took the win today over WorldTour legend Ashleigh Moolman and her fellow South African Hayley Preen. Hugo also landed on the podium, taking third in a sprint finish with Matt Beers and Andri Frishknecht. As he explains in this conversation, third is exactly where he wants to be. This episode was made possible by TrainingPeaks.Instagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveen Email: howdy@withpace.cc
