As a kid, Mathias Guillemette would get stuffed into the back seat of his parents car, wedged between a cooler and luggage, bikes all around, his older brother crammed in there too on their way to a Quebec race anywhere from three to seven hours away from their home in Trois-Rivières. There was also time on the velodromes in Bromont and Milton, Ont. During the past few years, Guillemette's competed in some of the world's top track cycling events, including the Track Champions League, where he's won an elimination race, and the Paris Olympics.  This year, Guillemette's cycling career is taking a new direction. He's landed a spot on the Tudor Pro Cycling continental-level development team. At 23, he's a senior rider with some teammates four years younger than him. In this episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast, you'll find out how Guillemette, with a little tip from another track cyclist turned roadie, got on to the Swiss team and how his skills on the track might translate to success on the road with the devo team and the ProTeam.This episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast is supported by MS Bike.

With the 2025 WorldTour season just around the corner, Liam and Simon are joined by Dan Bigham, Red Bull-BORA-Hansgrohe's head of engineering, to discuss what the big tech trends might be.   Starting with the question of whether there's any low hanging aero fruit left to pick, the conversation moves onto the ongoing controversy over the relationship between speed and safety in professional bike racing.   The trio then discuss the UCI Hour Record, whether breaking the 60km mark is possible and how it could be done.   Wrapping up, Liam and Simon turn the lens on themselves and ask whether Dan thinks there's anything cycling media could do to help audiences understand complicated topics and cut through marketing claims.
