Podcast appearances and mentions of paris roubaix

What does it take to photograph elite athletes pushing their bodies to the point of collapse, or freeze the motion of cars hurtling by at speeds that blur the line between control and catastrophe? Two of our favorite recent podcasts went deep inside those worlds: one with Phil Penman and Kristof Ramon on the brutal beauty of competitive cycling, and the other with Camden Thrasher and Jamey Price on the relentless sensory overload that comes with photographing motor sports. While our video podcast studio gets its finishing touches, we're revisiting our archive for an encore that pairs the best of both sports—from the many stages of suffering baked into professional cycling to the wild mix of visual stimulation and sleep deprivation that comes with shooting a 24-hour endurance race. In each conversation, you'll find sparks of enlightenment that happens when photographers who thrive on adrenaline get a chance to really talk shop. The excerpts here contain the highlights. Yet, the full episodes are also worth your time—links to those are in the timeline below. And make sure to subscribe @BHPodcastNetwork to get our latest updates on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok.

Guest Bios: British-born, New York-based photographer Phil Penman has documented the ever-changing scene of New York City's streets for more than 25 years. and he has quite a bit of experience in the world of professional cycling himself. In his career as a news and magazine photographer, Phil has photographed major public figures and historical events. His reportage following the 9/11 terrorist attack was featured in major print publications and media broadcasts worldwide, and his work covering New York City's pandemic lockdown is in the collection of the U.S. Library of Congress. In addition to exhibiting at Leica galleries in New York, Washington, D.C., Boston, and London, Phil's signature street photography has appeared in international exhibitions as far afield as Venice, Berlin, and Sydney. He also tours the world teaching photo workshops for Leica Akademie. Phil's books, "Street" published in 2019, and "New York Street Diaries" published in 2023 both became best-sellers and have been featured at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Kristof Ramon is a pro-cycling photographer who covers some of the world's most prestigious races, including the Tour de France, the Giro d' Italia, the Tour of Flanders and Paris Roubaix. Born and raised in Belgium, Kristof discovered photography while attending film school at age 19. He eventually followed his passion for cycling and photography and has focused exclusively on this sport since 2011. Working under the name Kramon, his talent for storytelling and his ability to capture the atmosphere and raw emotion of racing makes his images stand out from typical race photography. Kristof's reputation has earned him the respect and trust of many of the biggest racing teams and riders - which is why he's able to capture such extraordinary in-between moments and behind-the-scenes images. The riders are always his primary focus, as evidenced in his close-up portraits of racers caked in sweat, mud, dust, snow, and grime. Kristof's first book, The Art of Suffering, was released in June 2024 by Laurence King Publishing. Camden Thrasher is a motor sports photographer with a distinctive ability to capture unique scenes of fast action. Growing up in Vancouver, Washington, it was the sound of engines from a nearby racetrack that first drew him to motor sports. After becoming a fixture at the track with his camera during high school, Camden studied automotive design and engineering in college, expecting to work as an engineer or on a pit crew. But the money he was making as a side hustle with his camera convinced him to stick with photography, and he hasn't looked back since. Using a unique slow shutter speed method, perfected over many exposures, Camden revels in showcasing the abstract qualities of gleaming metal, bright lights, and dynamic action that are hallmarks of this sport. Now based out of Atlanta, Georgia, Camden's work has been commissioned by top racing teams and featured in a wide range of media, from print magazines to automotive branding campaigns. Jamey Price is an automotive photographer based in Charlotte, North Carolina, whose motor sports work has taken him to more than 25 countries, and across most of the continental US. Jamey's photography career began while he was competing as a thoroughbred horse racing jockey and exercise rider. During this time, he completed more than 50 races, notching 11 wins in the saddle. His life in horse racing was eventually compiled into the self-published book Chasing: Racing Life in England & Ireland. Yet, in 2011, Jamey's photography career switched from horses to horse-power. Since he began chasing race cars, his images have been published worldwide in magazines, distributed by sports imagery wire services, and featured by top commercial clients. Additionally, Jamey is a LEXAR Elite Artist, since 2014.

This week, Will and James are joined by Lidl-Trek's head coach, Mattias Reck. Born and raised in Sweden, like most people in his profession Mattias started out racing as a pro before moving into performance coaching. In 2017 he joined Trek-Segafredo, where he soon found himself nurturing the talents of a young Mads Pedersen (Swedish and Danish languages are pretty similar, says Mattias, which certainly helped with coaching). Today that relationship continues – Mads is something like family now – albeit Mattias is also personally responsible for a host of other riders, ‘mostly the Danish ones' plus women's WorldTour stars Shirin van Anrooij and Fleur Moors. We joined Mattias just after Paris-Roubaix, where Pedersen had finished seventh. Not quite the result the team was hoping for at the start of the Classics campaign but a victory of sorts given Pedersen's awful crash at the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana at the beginning of February, which saw him undergo surgery and only return to racing in late March. Here, Mattias explains such emotional highs and lows of rider and coach when the proverbial hits the fan; the mental fortitude needed for rehab; and the care teams give to their riders, from check-ins to chats with team psychologists to the role of e-cycling platforms such as Rouvy for rehab. Mattias also explains why he thinks riders are getting faster, the latest thinking in nutrition and carb fuelling, the importance of fatigue resistance, the paradigm shift in training, and why cycling needs to tread a careful line between exploiting young talent and burning out careers early.Chat begins at 9.50-----------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

W tym odcinku „Rowery, nie bajki” Julek Ćwieluch rozmawia z dr. Piotrem Kubkowskim, historykiem kultury i autorem książki „Sprężyści”, oraz Przemkiem Żebrowskim z firmy Antymateria. Jaka jest historia rowerów w Polsce, jak przetrwały wojny, kryzysy i rewolucje? Punktem wyjścia do rozmowy jest wystawa „Bez trzymanki. Jak rower zmienia Warszawę” w Muzeum Woli, ale to opowieść znacznie szersza: o tym, jak rower przez blisko 200 lat zmieniał miasta, społeczeństwa i sposób myślenia. Wyjaśniamy, jak wyglądała historia rowerów na ziemiach polskich, skąd wzięło się samo słowo „rower” i jak rozwijała się produkcja pierwszych jednośladów. Jak stare rowery wpływały na codzienne życie mieszkańców miast i wsi? Dlaczego rower stał się jednym z najbardziej rewolucyjnych środków transportu w historii? Podejmujemy też inne ważne wątki – kiedyś nieoczywiste – czyli kobiety na rowerach i dzieci na rowerach, społeczne podziały związane z cyklistyką, zmieniająca się rola roweru jako symbolu statusu społecznego. Goście tłumaczą, jak rower przyczynił się do emancypacji różnych grup społecznych i dlaczego do dziś wpływa na nasze postrzeganie przestrzeni miejskiej. Nie brakuje wątków sportowych: rozmawiamy o początkach wyścigów rowerowych, legendarnym Paris-Roubaix, najważniejszych monumentach i o tym, dlaczego Polska nie wykształciła tradycji kolarskich porównywalnych do zachodniej Europy. Prócz tego: rowery szosowe, narodziny MTB i fenomen kultury BMX, którą popularyzowały takie filmy jak „E.T.”. Jak zmieniało się nasze myślenie o tym, czym jest rower transportowy (znany też jako rower cargo)? Jak rower wpływa na zmianę myślenia o mieście, mobilności i ekologii? Znów okazuje się, że rower jest czymś znacznie więcej niż środkiem transportu – jest narzędziem, które od ponad wieku zmienia nasze miasta, codzienne życie i kulturę! CZEGO DOWIESZ SIĘ Z ODCINKA: 1. Dlaczego rower był jednym z najważniejszych wynalazków zmieniających życie mieszkańców miast? 2. Jak rowery wpłynęły na emancypację kobiet, rozwój sportu i przemiany społeczne? 3. Skąd wzięły się rowery cargo, BMX-y, MTB i współczesna kultura rowerowa w Polsce i na świecie?

Tro-Bro Léon. The mini Paris-Roubaix. 200km of rolling Breton hills, aggressive racing, and the iconic farm track - or Ribinoù - the race is known for. This race is iconic, but niche. It's a real racers race; if you know, you know. That's why it's the perfect setting for the second episode of Life In The Peloton's Race Radio presented by SHOKZ.   That's right, Harry & Stu are back at the races to bring you all the sounds, sights, and smells from the roadside to take you on the journey with them. Here's what the boys had to say about their adventure:   Harry: Tro-Bro Léon – what a delight. Stu and I had a blast in Brittany, shucking oysters, shopping in Decathlon and cheering on Lewis Askey and Fred Wright. My personal highlight? Meeting 'Mr Pig' himself Laurent Pichon, legendary rider from the area and all-round nice guy. Bring on the Route d'Occitanie!   Stu: Ribin-who? I only heard about this race a couple of years ago, and I've wanted to go ever since. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint... If only all races were this wild! This is France like I've never seen it before. Pure Breton passion, hard racing, great crowds. Mitch knows how to pick em! See you there next year?   I only did this race once in my career, and for some reason EF gave me the green light to be the team's leader and go for a result. How did it go? Well, let's just say I've never won Tro-Bro…not even close.    This is a real bastard of a race, but that's why it's loved so deeply by the fans. The iconic piglet prize presented to the best placed Breton rider is just one of the weird and wonderful things about Tro-Bro Léon, but after you listen to Harry & Stu's latest adventure it'll all make sense.   Of course, none of this would be possible without support from our presenting partner SHOKZ. If you're after the best sports headphones - be it for cycling, running, or even swimming - get across to SHOKZ's website, and enjoy a cheeky discount for being a LITP listener.    Guys, you don't need me to tell you…but I'm going to anyway; this is a banger of an ep. Harry and Stu are just like you and me - real bike racing fans. Their passion is infectious, and after hearing this episode, I'm so pumped to get back roadside watching some live racing. If you enjoyed this one, drop the boys a line at raceradio@lifeinthepeloton.com and let them know!   You'll next hear from Life In The Peloton's Race Radio presented by SHOKZ at La Route d'Occitanie in June - another niche race, but one that - in 2010 - saw one f the greatest stage victories of all time. Stay tuned.   Cheers, Mitch

I wish I were neighbors with Matej Mohoric because I'd like nothing more than to hang out and talk bikes, talk not about bikes, just be able to share stories and insight with him. Heck, when we hung out last week, he showed me his videos of kids, talked about raising a family while in the World Tour as much as we talked about aerodynamic watt savings. I love it. On the eve of Paris-Roubaix 2026, I got the chance to hang out and talk with Matej. Here is that conversation. Want to improve your sleep?

Dane Cash and Cosmo Catalano break down all the action from the men's race at Liège-Bastogne-Liège.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP   Guys, the cobbled classics are over for another year - and what a Spring we've had! Although the cobbles may be behind us, we still have the Ardennes to look forward to over the next week! Who better to wrap up the cobbles and preview the Ardennes with than my old mates Luke Durbridge and Tom Southam right here on this month's Race Communiqué.   We kick this month's episode off by rounding up the Spring so far; from Pogačar's dominance at Flanders right through to Van Aert's redemption at Paris Roubaix, there's been heaps of racing to get stuck into. One race I didn't manage to follow too closely was the Tour of the Basque Country, where young Paul Seixas absolutely dominated from start to finish. Fortunately, Southam was there on the ground in the EF team car, so he gives us the scoop from Spain, and just how good Seixas really is.    The Ardennes classics have already kicked off, with Remco Evenepoel dusting Skjelmose in the sprint to win the Amstel Gold Race. Southam was in the convoy dealing with a unique….pretty gross situation that he's never come across in his career. Safe to say Remco's shape is ominous ahead of Liège - the 4th monument of the year - which is only a few days away. With Pog, Remco, and Seixas all on the start list it looks like we're in for an epic showdown. We go through the course and pick our favourites.   Durbo's just got back after a few days off the bike following Paris Roubaix, and that's what this month's PeloChat is all about; keeping mentally fresh and taking time away from cycling. As you all know by now, Luke's just announced that he's hanging up the wheels after national champs in January 2027. He's riding out a long, distinguished career of 15 years - so this advice is worth listening to.   Talking Tactics is all about that head to head to head we're getting hyped about at Liège-Bastogne-Liège; how do Remco and Seixas overthrow Pogi who, on paper, is probably the favourite. Southam gives us his thoughts.    Finally - of course - it's the Communiquiz; this month I'm quiz master and we're talking monuments. Who's DNF'd more monuments; me, Durbo, or Southam? You'll have to listen to find out.    The cobbles may have finished but there's still heaps of great racing to enjoy, so give this ep a listen and get hyped up for the Ardennes. Not long to go until we can talk Grand Tours, and the Giro - Mama Mia, that's come around fast!    Cheers, Mitch   The Race Communiqué is brought to you by TrainingPeaks!

Sikkerhed starter med dækket - både på motorvejen og cykelstien. Vi er endelig samlet på Bausager Gård igen. Der er sket meget siden sidst. Vi samler op på det måske bedste forår i denne guldalder. Flandern Rundt, Paris-Roubaix og brostenene. Amstel, Fleche og Ardennerne.  Vi er gået til mikrofonerne 30 minutter efter Paul Seixas sejr på Muren i Huy. Kan han virkelig slå Tadej Pogacar på søndag i Liege-Bastogne-Liege?  Medvirkende: Anders Mielke og Per Bausager

In Folge 154 diskutieren wir zuerst kurz darüber, ob Paris-Roubaix spannender war als Artemis II. Und dann geht es um die künstliche Intelligenz. Die wird auch in der Wissenschaft immer öfter eingesetzt, durchaus auch erfolgreich. Aber: Ist das gut oder sollten wir das lieber lassen? Und Evi hat sich einen trashigen Film aus den 1980er Jahren angeschaut, in der ein Roboter Amok läuft.

A Paris-Roubaix deste ano voltou a quebrar recordes de velocidade — e isso abre a porta para uma discussão maior sobre a evolução do ciclismo profissional.Em apenas 8 anos, as provas ficaram muito mais rápidas, e a diferença não parece ser só de talento: ela passa por equipamentos, preparação, tecnologia e nutrição.É essa mudança estrutural no nível de performance que os gregários Ronaldo Martinelli e Nicolas Sessler debatem neste episódio.O ciclismo atual não é apenas mais forte. Ele é mais eficiente e atento aos detalhes.

Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie and Tudor Pro Cycling's Larry Warbasse are in the hotseats as we return to review the big talking points from another fascinating week in the world of pro cycling. Our men's Arrivée episode at the weekend covered the key moments in Wout Van Aert's redemptive victory in Paris-Roubaix. A few days later, with a visit to Coorevits Corner and Larry's reflections, we dig into what we and also you at home may have missed on a Sunday in “Hell”. Daniel spent last week at Itzulia aka the Tour of the Basque Country. We get a flavour of that trip and a sense of what victory could mean for Paul Seixas and French cycling. We also touch on Primož Roglič's struggles in Spain before looking ahead to the start of a new Classics swing this weekend.  EPISODE SPONSORIndeedIf you are looking to hire someone for your company, maybe the best way isn't to search for a candidate but to match with Indeed.

Three very different Paris-Roubaix debutants share their stories in this month's mini feature. We hear from long-time Classics stalwart Shirin Van Anrooij, youngest finisher Jente Koops and Alexis Magner who comes to the race after recovering from a life-threatening crash last season.Before that, Rose Manley, Denny Gray and Lizzy Banks discuss their big take-aways from the cobbled classics and how the current rider injury list might shape the Ardennes Classics to come.We also delve into the decision by race organisers ASO to move the women's Paris-Roubaix from Saturday to a shared slot with the men on the Sunday. And explore in what ways the race's limited TV coverage could have wider ramifications for the sport.Also on the agenda: Lizzy's many goats, cyclist ribs on the barbecue and hold on, did Denny just quit?EPISODE SPONSORSailyIf you are travelling abroad and want to reduce or even eliminate roaming charges you need an eSim from Saily, brought to you by the creators of NordVPN.⛵Download the SAILY app and use our code cycling at checkout to get an exclusive 15% off your first purchase.

This week, James and Will chat to George Hincapie, the super-est of domestiques, double 'ard Classics man and erstwhile lieutenant to Lance Armstrong.George was born in Queens, New York City, on 29th June 1973, to cycling-mad Colombian dad, Ricardo. By twelve he was throwing elbows racing adults in Central Park, and by his teens he was showing the talent that would take him to the Olympics in 1992 and his first pro season, with Motorola, in 1994.At first a self-confessed bunch of American upstarts, Motorola morphed into one of the most formidable teams of the 90s and 2000s, US Postal. There, George forged his status as one of cycling's strongest and most dependable riders, supporting team leader Lance Armstrong as road captain and lieutenant across all seven of Armstrong's Tour wins – though of course that's wins in inverted commas.George retired from the pro peloton in 2012 after 19 seasons in which he started the Tour de France 17 consecutive times, finishing it 16 times and winning one team-time-trial stage. He also rode 50 Monuments including finishing second at Paris Roubaix and third at Tour of Flanders; he won Gent-Wevelgem in 2001; and was three-time US National Champ.Today, George is bringing all that experience to his new team, Modern Adventure Pro Cycling, with the express intention of giving young riders a shot at the big time while becoming 'the next great American team', who might one day compete in the Grand Tours. We spoke to George ahead of Paris-Roubaix, where Modern Adventure had the first big wildcard entry of its inaugural season.Our chat begins at 10.24-----------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

Luke “Turbo Durbo” Durbridge joins Dan and Johnny fresh off a brutal, blister‑inducing Paris‑Roubaix and drops the news: 2026 will be his final season in the WorldTour. In a wide‑open, emotional, and very funny chat, Turbo reflects on the decision he made quietly back in December, what it meant to roll into the Roubaix velodrome for the last time, and why the sport's changing speed, pressure, and culture make this the right moment to step away.He breaks down the wildest Roubaix in years — 49km/h averages, puncture carnage, prototype cleats, and the insane teammate heroics happening behind the TV cameras. He talks about the riders who shaped him (including Swain Tuft's life‑changing influence), the friendships forged in Girona, and what it means to spend 15 straight years with one team from GreenEDGE's birth to today.Turbo also looks ahead: the Tour de France TTT, a final Nationals in Perth, moving home, and life after racing — from property to family to maybe, one day, the director's car.And yes… stay tuned for the Turbo tribute song at the end. It's chaos. It's heartfelt. It's Jonesy's finest work.

In this special episode of the Wheel Talk podcast, Abby and Loren are on the ground at Paris-Roubaix Femmes. They chat with Alice Jackson from Rouleur about the shortened live coverage this year, catch up with Marianne Vos before the start, and try to break down how the race played out while recording beside the velodrome.With audio diaries from Franziska Koch (FDJ United-Suez) herself as well as Martina Martins (Canyon-SRAM-zondacrypto), Alexis Ryan (EF Education-Oatly), Lauretta Hanson (Lidl-Trek), and Jeanne Korevaar (Liv-AlUla-Jayco).

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP   PARIS ROUBAIX! What. A. Race. Holy hell, guys - what have we just witnessed.    That was the best Roubaix's I've ever seen…that was the best race I've ever seen! I couldn't wait till Wednesday to talk through this one, so I sat down with Durbo in person right here in Roubaix after the race to go through the dramatic, emotional, epic edition blow by blow.    I was sector hopping at Paris Roubaix today - from the first cobbled sector, to the Carrefour de l'Arbre, then on to the iconic Roubaix velodrome to watch the women's sprint finish. Meanwhile, Durbo was out there on the stones getting stuck in. We've both had pretty epic days, although I think Luke's earned a few more post race beers than me.    I had to take the opportunity whilst I'm here in Europe to sit down with Luke, recap the race, dive into the key moments that made this edition one for the history books, hear from inside the bunch direct from Durbs, and - of course - squeeze in a cheeky Roubaix Communiquiz.    Guys this is a special emergency podcast from someone who's just raced - as I'm sure you'll agree - what was one of the best races of all time. Enjoy.   Cheers, Mitch The Race Communiqué is brought to you by TrainingPeaks! Track, plan, and train smarter - just like the pros. Get 20% off TrainingPeaks Premium now at trainingpeaks.com/litp

They also run down who can potentially challenge for the win outside of Van der Poel and Pogačar, and what would have to happen for riders like Mads Pedersen, Wout van Aert, Mads Pedersen and Filippo Ganna to win, discuss the key tactical scenarios, the importance of positioning in the final sequence of cobbled sectors, and how an elite group could keep Pogačar from turning one of cycling's most iconic events into yet another one-man showcase.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP   It's Paris–Roubaix week, and it felt like the perfect time to bring back one of the interviews I'd wanted to do from the very start of Life in the Peloton. Sitting down with Tom Boonen at his place in Mol is still one of my favourite conversations we've had on the pod, so I thought this was the right moment to share it again.   When it comes to the Cobbled Classics, Tom's palmarès are mind blowing. He's the joint record holder for wins at both Flanders (3) and Roubaix (4), as well as the outright record holder for the most wins at E3 (5). Just one of those victories would define most careers, but Tom can also count three Gent–Wevelgems, a couple of Scheldeprijs titles and a world championship for good measure.   This was an extra special pod for me personally. Tom's career wrapped up in 2017, which meant I spent a big part of my own racing career lining up against him at the Classics and getting my legs blown off by his attacks. He was the wheel everyone wanted to be on when the racing got serious. I managed it once… have a listen to hear how that went.   I was lucky enough to sit down with Tom at his home in Mol and really get stuck into chatting about the races that we both love so much. He's a fantastic interviewee, and I got a real buzz from the excitement he still clearly feels when talking through the ups and downs of his biggest wins and defeats.   As well as revisiting some of the most legendary Classics moments of the last decade, I also got to ask a few questions I'd always wanted to know the answers to. What was it really like being a superstar in such a cycling-mad country? How did he handle the pressure of becoming world champion at just 24? And we also talked about a comeback story that often gets overlooked alongside Matt Hayman's incredible ride at the 2016 Paris–Roubaix.   Honestly, I could have stayed chatting about the microscopic details of the Arenberg sector for hours if I could. There's so much in this one, and with Roubaix coming up this weekend it felt like the right time to bring it back.   Cheers! Mitch   Check out our new Substack! It's a new place for us to go a bit deeper — home to Tom Southam's Director's Cuts, my Pelo Journal, and stories from inside the peloton… and a bit beyond it too - https://lifeinthepeloton.substack.com/

It's Holy Week here in northern Europe and that means we're smack between Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix. A few days out from Roubaix, I thought it would be a great time to launch this episode with George Hincapie as he talks his way through the history of the upstart American pro team, Modern Adventure Pro Cycling. You've likely seen their eye catching kits, you've seen them headed out in the breakaway of some of the biggest races of the year this year already, now it's time to dig into a conversation with George to hear all about this team, where it's from and where it's going.

The Cycling Podcast returns in perhaps the most eagerly anticipated week of the season, to look back in more detail at Sunday's Tour of Flanders and ahead to Paris-Roubaix at the weekend. Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie are joined by former team manager and press chief Brian Nygaard as we reflect on the story that dominated the build-up to Flanders: Remco Evenepoel's shock announcement that he would start for Redbull-BORA-hansgrohe after months of denials. Are the media entitled to feel upset at being misled, or is all ultimately fair in love and the war for eyeballs? We hear what Hugo Coorevits thinks, and also what's on his mind ahead of the “Hell of the North”. Do only the redoubtable pavés of northern France stand between Tadej Pogačar and his next piece of history – or will Van der Poel, Van Aert et al. halt his march towards a Monument Grand Slam? EPISODE SPONSORSIndeedIf you are looking to hire someone for your company, maybe the best way isn't to search for a candidate but to match with Indeed.

Lance Armstrong, George Hincapie, Johan Bruyneel break and Spencer Martin break down Tadej Pogačar's incredible solo win at the Tour of Flanders to rack up his record-tying third career win at the race, as the sport's top riders, Mathieu van der Poel, Remco Evenepoel, Wout van Aert, and Mads Pedersen were left looking for answers behind. They discuss what, if anything, his rivals could have done, Evenepoel's incredible debut at the race, and, most importantly, whether there's anything anyone can do to stop Pogačar next week at Paris-Roubaix.
