In this 4 part series, I wanted to explore the events that took place that led the bike industry to the troubling point it's at now. I spoke to over a dozen industry professionals from all parts of the supply chain. From well run bike shops, forecasting analysts, distributors, the biggest bike brands in the world, and manufacturers. It's well known that the bicycle industry went through an unprecedented boom during the pandemic from 2020 - 2022. Jump ahead to 2024 and much of the bike industry is in trouble. New demand has come to an abrupt halt. New entrants into the bicycle market have not stayed as the industry had hoped.We're seeing massive inventory overruns at bike shops. Big bike brands are taking on extra warehousing space. Businesses such as Niner, Orange, Wiggle/CRC, have gone into bankruptcy. Otherwise profitable big brands have taken on debt to keep afloat. There are brands out there who are doing well, but they're the exception rather than the norm. In general , I don't think many would disagree that the situation in major cycling markets, aside from China, is pretty dire.The episode is this first of four. We're going to bring you on a journey through the COVID feast, the storm clouds, the famine, and the lessons learned in hindsight.In this episode, The Feast, we speak to a bike shop owner, a demand forecasting analyst for a distributor, company CEOs, and a manufacturer to hear about what they experienced during the initial stages of the pandemic in early 2020.
In episode one we heard about the unexpected windfall that the cycling industry saw at the start of the pandemic and how many needed to react. Of course that didn't last forever, and in this episode I've titled ‘the storm clouds' we talk about the early signs that this new demand was coming to an abrupt halt, and the types of behaviour that was happening and the causes of that behaviour that led to the catastrophe that the industry would later see.
"Exploring Music, Community, and Positive Trends in the Industry-Special guests Megan McKenzie, and Shelton Hull"In the Season 4 finale I sat down in conversation with Megan McKenzie, and Shelton Hull discussing everything from the passion that drives musicians to the positive trends shaping the industry.

I had been thinking of how I wanted to do episode 50. I had to do something huge. Something monumental. So I invited an old friend, fresh outta jail to come join me. Sounds typical for me? Well this old friend is famous. Or actually INFAMOUS. She was sentenced to 3 years and 4 months in state prison for embezzling $650,000. So we talk about all her trials and tribulations leading up to her case and stint behind bars. We don't stop there she's in the process of writing two books. We also talk about some politics *barf* and our old days riding around Oakland during the Hyphy Movement. An article on her case - https://www.cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco/news/woman-who-embezzled-over-650000-from-marin-county-nonprofit-rehab-center-sentenced/ Her linkdin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/vcllc-134a711b1 https://www.youtube.com/@theindustryspecialpodcast patreon.com/industryspecial if you'd like to support what I do

The Music Industry has existed for ages. Its sparked relationship between the artist and the record label that can be described as "ebb's and flows". From the perspective of the average person it seems like all its meant to be, you are able to create art that you are paid currency for. Some artists such as Chance the Rapper preach that the music industry isn't a smart decision and encourage independent artistry. However, we wanted to know what else is there to joining the music industry? Is there a catch? Who better than someone who is part of the music industry to ask such questions.

One central aspect in Linda's career is the importance of data analytics. When it comes to data as an asset, plenty of different entities can claim ownership to it: financial institutions, vendors, banks, and even the government. With so much data going around, it's important to know where the data is coming from, how to process it into useful information, and how it can be centralized in a way that it can be used by more parties in more projects. How Do We Preserve Repositories of Skills and Knowledge? The finance sector is working on capturing processes of knowledge into analytical models. As data enters these models, technology can work on computing this information and laying out analyses for us in a more efficient manner. This gives two benefits: first, the process of computing this information is not lost. Second, computing is done more efficiently. There is no need to return to square one when a longtime employee vacates a position. Here, Linda makes several parallels between retail and finance using labels for canned goods as an example. Due to incredibly small margins in retail, it's important for canned goods to be transparent about the content and process involved in making this product. This is because it serves as their competitive edge. If financial institutions were also as concerned about being transparent, then it would make maneuvering financial markets more efficient. According to Linda, the biggest problem that financial institutions had when dealing with the crash of Wall Street was in being able to uniquely identify institutions. When the Lehman brothers crashed, she described everyone to have “held their breath for about 48 hours while transactions settled, because nobody knew who all of the subsidiaries of Lehman were and they didn't know how to uniquely identify.” With such a catastrophic experience institutions can and should learn from, she is optimistic that the benefits of data standards will be observed and acknowledged by institutions. Holding The Front Line: Linda perceives her previous work on the board of governors of the Federal Reserve as similar to being a medic. “I was the medic who, once the wounding was happening and people were like, hey, I need to find out this piece of information. And then we would figure out how to cobble some stuff together, look at things in a different way or produce some different sets of information. It was absolutely fascinating,” she explained. In efforts to learn from the collapse of the Lehman brothers and ensure that it does not happen again, big banks are investing plenty of money in data management infrastructure so that they can get precise and accurate reporting on where they stand. This faster and more efficient flow of data can help financial institutions preemptively deal with ebbs and flows in the market, instead of scrambling to react. The Way Forward: When working on the projects, Linda noticed that her team members had to take data from several different databases before they could piece together a clear picture of the companies they needed to look at and the identifiers they needed to study. This inspired her to create an integrated database where all government and vendor data, their unique identifiers, and the legal entity identifier were stored. From stock prices to bond prices and financial statement information, this served as a reusable launching point for future projects that everybody in the organization could access. It allows individuals to free up more time working on different aspects of future projects, which makes the entire process more efficient, resources more available, and human labor more open to higher-tier aspects of work such as algorithms. This is called the economies of scale. That's three benefits: resource efficiency, economies of scale, and ready to deploy at any time. One challenge of implementing this change is convincing people to change their mindset from making sure that they get the task done in the easiest, most efficient way for themselves; to finding ways to get the task done while giving the next people who will be using this data the opportunity to use it in the most efficient way — even if it can be a bigger challenge upfront. It's encouraging people to look beyond merely making unique personal identifiers to data sets so that they can get the job done instead of finding a standardized identifier for the information and then applying it. “It's taking the larger view of things, of how do I make things more efficient for the entire ecosystem, so that we can do things that we currently can't do at all?” Linda asks. Closing Thoughts: Setting Up The Data Hierarchy of Needs: According to Linda, it's human nature to get excited about big and lofty goals like machine learning and artificial intelligence. However, the root of any successful and sustainable effort is found in learning how to target and harness one's data. While achieving enlightenment in finance is possible, it would be difficult for people and businesses to scale the process effectively because they have to start from square one every single time. So, when you think of the data you handle and how it can be a part of something greater with a little extra effort upfront — how much is your data worth? www.tartle.co Data Transparency, Finance, and Governance with Linda Powell, Global Head of Data Strategy, Governance, and End User Computing at Citibank by TARTLE is licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0 Tcast is brought to you by TARTLE.
