W nowym odcinku „Rowery, nie bajki” gość specjalny: Maja Włoszczowska, kolarka górska, dwukrotna wicemistrzyni olimpijska. Rozmawiamy o tym, jak się nie poddawać po upadkach i kontuzjach i jaki wpływ na wyniki ma „głowa”. Maja Włoszczowska mówi także o tym, że depresja jest obecna u wielu sportowców, szczególnie po zakończeniu kariery. W rozmowie także o tym, czy jest prosta recepta na wygrywanie wielkich zawodów, jak wyglądały jej przygotowania do olimpiady w Rio 2016 i który medal jest jej ulubionym. I jak wygląda kolarstwo w Polsce – czy rowery szosowe zdetronizowały kolarstwo górskie, MTB i dlaczego światowi zawodnicy wybierają wyścigi w grand tourach. Z Mają Włoszczowską rozmawia Julek Ćwieluch, Rowery, nie bajki.

Hoy arrancamos el episodio con algo muy especial. Un pequeño homenaje, sentido y sincero, a Robe Iniesta, que esta mañana nos ha dejado para siempre. Allá donde estés… sigue dando conciertos.Después de este arranque tan personal, entramos en una de las entrevistas más esperadas de la temporada. Por sorpresa total, se pasa por aquí Josemari Sánchez, y por fin nos quitamos la espinita clavada desde aquel día en el que se proclamó campeón de España de MTB y, por culpa del mayor error garrafal histórico de Antun, no grabamos el podcast.Con Josemari hablamos absolutamente de todo. Del presente y futuro del Scott CalaBandida, de materiales, de bicicletas, de rendimiento, de cómo ve la industria del ciclismo en este 2025 tan extraño y qué cree que nos espera en 2026. Se marca incluso alguna casi-exclusiva, anunciando que habrá un tercer corredor en la estructura, y confirma que el Scott CalaBandida estará en la Cape Epic 2026. Una charla cercana, divertida y con uno de los ciclistas más polivalientes del mundo. De esos episodios que se escuchan de un tirón.También repasamos el calendario que tenemos por delante hasta junio, para que sepáis en qué carreras vamos a estar y dónde podremos encontrarnos.Y, por supuesto, vuestra sección. Pablo Pérez Camacho, Jesús Hernández, Ismael ZM, Madmabikes, Eduardo González Rojas y una bicilavera de incógnito que nos pide consejo sobre el material que debería incluir en su carta a los Reyes Magos. Como siempre, un placer teneros dentro del podcast.Si tenéis dudas, sugerencias o queréis participar, ya sabéis que podéis seguirnos y escucharnos en El Podcast de BiciLAB.

We love Reece Wallace. Not so much because he rides bikes, but more because he pisses off large corporate entities by posting clips of himself in excavator bucket hot tubs. It's also pretty cool that he bought the wings from a plane in which the pilot was beheaded so he could use them at his homemade bike park. Another cool thing about Reece Wallace is that he worked hard to build his career as a freerider and content creator because he has a trust fund. That's actually not true He's never been a trust funder, though people sometimes think he is for some reason. Finally, we love Reece because he has a rad pilot voice, which is mandatory when you're a pilot. It was awesome having him back on. We talk about all of that, the Reece Wallace Invitational, baggy jeans, and a ton more on this...the greatest MTB show in the world...the Gnar Couch Podcast.

Click here to text DCMTBAfter a long hiatus the DCMTB squad is back and better than ever, well maybe not better, but we are back We covered a lot of ground, and even snuck in some holiday gift ideas. Does it make sense, no. Is it of the highest quality, no. But is it the best we could do, probably also no. But your mom said she loved it. So turn up the volume and let us have our way with your ears. 

We dive into what's actually happening in peri- and postmenopause (hormonally, neurologically, and physically) and how those changes show up on the bike. From fear on technical trails, to fatigue, difficulties concentrating, to the “hit by a truck” recovery days… none of this is random. This episode is science-based and NOT only for women

In this week's episode, Rob sits down with downhill mountain biking legend Loïc Bruni.   Loïc opens up about the evolution of his career, the fierce but respectful rivalry with Jackson Goldstone, and what it's like watching a new wave of young riders come charging for the top step. Loic also teaches Rob a lesson about who the true GOAT of downhill MTB is.   They also tackle one of the most talked-about moments of the season, the Mont-Sainte-Anne start-gate controversy with Loïc's very contentious DNS, he explains exactly what happened, what he was thinking, and how he feels about it now.   And beyond the racing, Loïc reflects on life changes, including the joy and challenge of becoming a new father, balancing elite competition with family, and what motivates him heading into the next chapter of his career. #RedBull #JustRide The most entertaining podcast in cycling, join Rob Warner and Eliot Jackson – the most entertaining voices on two wheels to discover new and exciting disciplines and captivating stories as they delve into an array of cycling adventures.

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we sit down with the newly crowned 2025 E-Foil Surf Foil World Tour (SFT) World Champion – the undefeated e-foil racer who took the title in the season finale in Abu Dhabi.Fresh off dominating the inaugural SFT season, the Florida-based ripper (and Flightboard early adopter) joins us to break down what it actually feels like to turn a five-year hunch into a world championship, how e-foil racing went from “nice idea” to a full-blown global tour in record time, and why this sport is exploding faster than anyone predicted.We go deep on:- From kite-smash accidents to building one of the first e-foil schools in South Florida  - The wild Atlanta Foil Fest Enduro with Brian Grubb, Nick Leeson, and 20 riders dodging submerged trees at full throttle  - Unsanctioned full-send dawn patrols through Amsterdam's canals (don't try this at home)  - Gear geek-out: custom shims, chopped tails, 900 Flow vs 707 Flux wings, aftermarket race props, and why everything is still basically stock… for now  - Why full-face helmets and downhill MTB armor are becoming mandatory at 33–35 mph  - Mental warfare on the beach, prop-wash tactics, hot launches, and pulling 3+G turns  - Traveling the world with boards but no batteries (and how the Flightboard rental network saves the day)  - The massive progression from the first dealer races in 2022 to riders now training full-time and closing the gap second by second  - Where e-foil racing is headed: open-ocean courses, city canal sprints, Everglades gator-chasing, and boards that will eventually hit 50 mph  Year one of the Surf Foil World Tour is in the books, prize money is real, brands are paying attention, and the level is skyrocketing. The champ gives us the unfiltered look at what it took to stay on top — and why 2026 is about to get even crazier.If you've ever wondered what the cutting edge of foiling actually looks, sounds, and feels like… this is it.Follow the Surf Foil Tour → https://www.surffoilworldtour.com Justin Chait → https://www.instagram.com/_justinchait_/

Dario, Kaz, and Matt chat about the latest MTB news and reviews, and introduce the latest Field Test.

Lando Steezy (Leo Smith) has one of the rawest and most inspiring stories we've ever had on The Ride Companion. From growing up homeless, losing family members, watching friends fall into crime and addiction and nearly going down the same path himself, to discovering BMX and eventually becoming one of the most recognisable and influential riders in UK mountain biking, his journey is unreal. In this episode, Lando opens up about his turbulent childhood in Macclesfield, the moment that changed his life at 14, the friends he lost along the way, and how riding became his escape and ultimately his purpose. He talks about the first viral TikTok that blew up overnight, nearly turning down an Anthill Films shoot because he didn't know who they were, and how his partner pushed him back onto social media when he'd lost the love. We dig into representation in MTB, the crossover between wheelie culture and mountain biking, his creative work outside of riding, the grief and anxiety he's learned to manage, and why gravel bikes have become such a big part of his life. This is one of the most honest and powerful conversations we've recorded and we're massively grateful to Lando for being so open. We hope you enjoy the episode.   The Ride Companion Christmas Ride at BikePark Wales!

Sind Nightrides moralisch vertretbar?

On today's Gnar Couch Podshow, the boys somehow tricked freeride legend Tyler McCaul into a raw, questionably-legal look at big-mountain biking. Tyler opened up about the highs, the lows of Rampage. We got into what it's really like behind the scenes of the Rampage broadcast. He talked about dad life, athlete life, and attempting to keep a career alive while the bike industry plays musical chairs with bankruptcy filings. Naturally, Jimmy asked zero relevant questions and Boston Rob salivated over another freeride pro joining the show. We dug into why riders keep sending it off mountains shaped like middle fingers and how to find balance in a world where everyone's pretending to be sponsored on Instagram. If you want the real story on riding, risk, community, and staying true to what you love,, this episode fully delivers like a FedEx driver hopped up on 72-Hour Energy. Tune in. Or don't. We're still cooler than all the other MTB content creators combined (in our heads), so we'll be fine. Guest info: Tyler McCaul Check out our store for sick shirts.

Today I'm joined by Matt Jones for a really honest and reflective conversation about what it takes to build a life around mountain biking. You may have seen his latest Red Bull video, where he jumps through two autonomous moving trucks, but I wanted to go beyond the spectacle and understand the process behind it. We talk about fear, pressure, and the uncertainty that comes with taking on ideas that don't have a clear path to the finish line. We also get into the business side of what he does: turning ideas into real ventures, balancing content creation with family life, building HELFARE, and the development of his new MTB game, MAVRIX. Including working with trail builders and bringing Rob Warner into the mix to try and capture the feel of mountain biking in gaming form. It's a conversation about creativity, risk, resilience, and doing things your own way. I hope you enjoy it. So sit back, hit play, and enjoy listening to this conversation with Matt Jones.

Glenn MacArthur grew up in a tiny village high in the French Alps, where riding bikes and exploring mountains was just part of everyday life. He's taken that foundation and built a really interesting path in mountain biking, one that doesn't follow traditional racing norms. From blind racing to setting fastest known times on crazy routes. From navigating the privateer world to landing a standout result at Epic Enduro, Glenn's approach is all about curiosity, commitment and finding what actually feels right, rather than what the sport says you should do. This is a chat about carving your own place in the MTB world, learning from the tough days, and keeping things authentic. So sit back, hit play, and enjoy this episode with Glenn MacArthur.

Send us a textThis month we're talking all about spectating MTB races — the hype, the hill climbs, the cowbells, and why cheering from the sidelines is its own kind of adrenaline rush. Whether you've never been to a race or you're already a tape-side superfan, this episode breaks down what makes race weekends so much fun.We're also joined by Jen and Nadine, who share their favorite spectating moments and why upgrading to VIP access takes the whole experience to a new level.

Season 5, episodio 12. Hoy tocaba capítulo exclusivo para mecenas, pero cuando llega una entrevista así… se mueve todo.Tras las charlas con Daniel Escaño y Rubén Espinosa seguimos en la misma línea: nutrición, fuerza, entrenamiento físico y, esta semana, el elemento que casi todos olvidan. La cabeza.Hoy nos visita uno de los grandes pioneros del mountain bike europeo. Un corredor que marcó una época en el XC internacional. Ganador de la Copa de Europa en 2001, diez años en la Selección Italiana Elite, siete podios en los Campeonatos de Italia y uno de los responsables de introducir la rueda 29 pulgadas en el mundo del racing europeo en 2011. También fue quien desarrolló el primer aro de 30 milímetros de canal para XC, un estándar que hoy usa toda la industria.Tras su etapa como atleta se convirtió en responsable técnico y desarrollador de producto en FRM y más tarde consultor para marcas que buscaban innovación real. Y ahora dirige Piraz Coaching Academy, la primera academia online dedicada en exclusiva a MTB y e-MTB, donde une metodología deportiva, técnica de pilotaje y entrenamiento mental con un objetivo: sacar la mejor versión del ciclista.En esta entrevista repasamos su trayectoria, su visión del material, el proceso de pasar de atleta a coach y entramos a fondo en lo que más nos interesa. El trabajo mental aplicado al ciclismo.Cómo gestionar la presión previa a una carrera. Cómo reconstruir la confianza tras una caída o una mala racha. Qué errores mentales cometen la mayoría de ciclistas amateur. Cómo entrenar la cabeza cuando no se tiene mucho tiempo. Y por qué la técnica también es un entrenamiento mental.Una conversación honesta, práctica y muy útil para cualquier ciclista que quiera competir mejor, entrenar mejor o simplemente disfrutar más de la bici.Además del invitado, repasamos nuestras movidas habituales:Las Hoka nuevas de Charly, el camión de Shimano que nos ha llegado al estudio con material tope de gama, todo lo que viene en el calendario de carreras, la FarWest con sus novedades UCI, y las historias de la comunidad en Vuestras Mierdas.Cerramos con DestinoCape: ya tenemos vuelos a Sudáfrica para la Cape Epic gracias a SolJet Viajes. Doce horas de viaje, trece personas y Emirates de por medio. Se viene aventura.Si te interesa el trabajo mental, la evolución del MTB o simplemente te apetece aprender de alguien que ha estado arriba del todo y que ahora ayuda a otros a llegar, este episodio te va a gustar.Puedes seguir al invitado aquí:Instagram de Mirko Pirazzoli: https://www.instagram.com/mirkopirazzoli/Nos escuchamos dentro.

We're back… minus Tommy (on “holiday”), plus Science with Bill and James from Ride Nutrition. We break down real race-day fueling that actually works: nitrates for arm pump, electrolytes vs. intra carbs, gels, nose strips, and what to eat before/after a moto or MTB ride. Also: the lamppost-meets-trailer saga, building Ride from a uni dissertation to 10k followers, and a £250 Ride bundle giveaway.

Most cyclists don't realize it, but our entire training lifestyle is basically built for longevity. Endurance & VO2 max training, weight lifting, real food, and good sleep are the same fundamentals that help you live longer and stay healthy as you age. With books like Outlive and the rise of longevity science, I finally decided to share my personal plan to live to 100 and the 8 fundamentals I'm going to use to get there. This video is the first in a full series on Longevity & Health for cyclists and non-cyclists alike. No hacks. No supplement stacks. No billionaire biohacks. Just the fundamentals science keeps pointing to again and again. You'll Learn: 1. Exercise: The #1 lever for healthspan: aerobic base, strength, muscle mass, and durability 2. Nutrition: Real food, protein, plants, hydration, and sustainable habits 3. Sleep 4. Stress Management: Daily habits that keep the nervous system calm 5. Relationships: Backed by the 80-year Harvard Study as a top predictor of long-term health. 6. Purpose & Mission 7.

Priority Cycles may be a new brand to the full-suspension MTB world, but they've got a ton of experience building belt-drive, gearbox bikes — and now they've launched the Vanth, a remarkably affordable high-pivot Pinion gearbox-equipped Enduro bike. So, why did Priority decide to enter the full-suspension bike market now, how did they come up with the wild-looking Vanth design, and what makes the Vanth so much more affordable than most other full-suspension gearbox bikes? We dive into all that and much more with Eddie Meek of Priority and Mike Schwartz, who served as an engineering consultant on the project.RELATED LINKS:Blister Mountain Bike Buyer's GuideGet Our Free Newsletter & Gear GiveawaysBLISTER+ Get Yourself CoveredTOPICS & TIMES:Introducing Eddie (3:20)The Priority brand (4:38)Introducing Mike (6:34)Why a high-pivot Enduro bike?

Trail boss Duncan Ferris is on the podcast! Duncan Ferris has lived two MTB lives: from 4X racer and World Cup track builder to shaping the UK's most ridden bike park trails at BikePark Wales. In this episode, Duncan takes us from the Bristol BSX scene, to building World Cup 4X tracks like Schladming, Vigo and Villingen and finally chasing down the National Champs jersey after 20 years. We dive deep into trail building psychology, why braking bumps form where they shouldn't, why variety in a crew is essential and how riders unlock creativity on a trail. Plus Duncan shares the BikePark Wales origin story, the dream project that became Vanta with Red Bull and Laurie Greenland, wild tales of dynamite on trail builds and digging up grenades.

Why perfectionism slows progress, what's really happening in your brain and body, and how to break the loop — on and off your mountain bike. In this episode, I dive into one of the biggest hidden blockers in adult MTB learning: perfectionism. If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “I should be better by now,” or you get frustrated when a skill doesn't click instantly — this episode is for you. We'll explore why perfectionism isn't just about “high standards” but a protective mechanism of your brain, what happens physiologically when you tense up and over-focus on mistakes, and — most importantly — how to shift out of that loop and back into learning flow. You'll walk away with concrete, science-backed tools to calm your nervous system, rewire your brain for real progress, and finally enjoy the process — instead of chasing “perfect.”

Two riders. Two Rookies. Two insane lines. One wild week at Red Bull Rampage! In this episode, Rob and Eliot sit down with freeride MTB stars Janelle Soukup and Hannah Bergemann to dive into the grit, fear, fun, and fire behind the most progressive women's lines at Red Bull Rampage EVER. From crashing forks to scouting chaos, from smooth jumps to gnarly drops, they share what it really takes to build your own line… and to ride it. Make sure you drop them a follow on social as they tackle their first-ever Red Bull Rampage this week!

Phil Atwill is on The Ride Companion Podcast!

He talks about his long-standing relationship with Propain Bikes and how it inspired the creation of the Propain Positive Team, his move to Greece, and why he's so dedicated to growing the local MTB scene. Phil also opens up about the state of downhill racing, mental health, and balancing competition with creative projects like Flow State 2. Along the way we dive into urban downhill madness, his honest thoughts on Rampage, the “prison bus” team van, product development with sponsors, and even some strong words for British Cycling plus much more...  The Ride Companion Christmas Ride at BikePark Wales!

On this week's episode Kathryn and Kristi are joined by professional cyclist and Life Time Grand Prix athlete Paige Onweller. Shortly after the Leadville 100 MTB race, Paige was hit by a car while out on a training ride while at home in Arkansas. Not only did the crash cause Paige major physical injuries and a severe concussion, it left her struggling with the emotional toll of the trauma from the incident. Paige speaks openly about the challenges she has faced since the crash, and how her path to recovery is going so far. Anyone that knows Paige knows that she is a highly motivated laser focused on being the best athlete she can be. When that was taken away by the crash and resulting injuries, Paige refocused her attention to becoming an advocate for safety for cyclists and other vulnerable road users. She is passionate about spreading awareness around road safety, and giving a voice to those of us that use the roads for cycling, running, walking and other activities. Paige is in the process of creating resources that will provide a template and framework on how to reach out to your state representative, and she encourages all cyclists to speak out and advocate for safety on the roads.Follow Paige on Instagram @paigepowered

Struggling with fear on technical MTB trails? I certainly did! In this episode, I share my personal story of trying the “just ride scarier trails” method - whether it works for overcoming fear mountain biking, and how I finally built confidence on steeps, rocks and technical trails that once intimidated me.  You'll learn why fear doesn't actually vanish through random exposure, how your adult brain wires fear and courage differently than you used to as a kid, and the proven step-by-step approach to actually build lasting confidence on the bike. If you've ever thought “maybe I'm just too fearful to mountain bike,” this episode is for you.

On this week's episode Kathryn and Kristi are joined by ultra runner and pro cyclist Maude Farrell. Maude was the winner of the 2025 Lead Challenge, which is a series of races in Leadville, CO that includes the Leadville Trail 100 MTB, the Leadville Trail 100 Run, and a handful of other races across the summer. Maude talks about the series, including the exciting close finish between her and the woman who finished in second place. Maude describes how she balances training for ultra running and cycling, as well as a full time job, and what keeps her excited about competing. Maude was last on the show in 2022, and since then her life has changed a lot. She was a close friend and roommate of Moriah Wilson who was tragically lost that year. She opens up about the devastation of the loss for the cycling community, and for her personally. Maude also describes how she has learned to live with the grief of losing such a close friend and training partner over the last three years, and what she has learned about herself in the process.Follow Maude on Instagram @maude.tmgLearn More and Register for our Feisty 40+ Strong Retreat: https://www.womensperformance.com/strongretreat Follow us on Instagram:@girlsgonegravel @feisty_media Girls Gone Gravel Website:https://www.girlsgonegravel.com/ Support our Partners:Previnex: Get 15% off your first order with code GIRLSGONEGRAVEL at https://www.previnex.com/ Feisty's Lift Heavy Guide: Get your guide to lifting heavy plus a 4-week training plan at https://www.womensperformance.com/lift-heavy

Kim Beckinsale and Alina McMaster, both in their mid-50s, race with Mountain Designs Wild Women, along with their teammates Cass Kimlin and Del Lloyd, who are both over 40. The team made history last year by becoming the first all-female team to win the 450 km Legend Expedition Race along Australia's Great Ocean Road, finishing in 73:09:27 and outracing men half their age. They unpack how women-only team chemistry—less ego, more communication, and strategic towing/help—can be a superpower over multi-day, map-and-compass courses on little sleep. They also share how their training has evolved with age (fewer “flog yourself” sessions, sharper intensity, bigger recovery) and how menopause shows up (heat management, sleep shifts, mood) without slowing performance. Kim and Alina are currently at Expedition Canada 2025, getting ready to tackle a 750+ km trek–bike–paddle course starting September 25.
