Podcasts about Track cycling

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.

This past spring, Ashlin Barry won two junior national championship titles: one in the time trial and one in road race. The Toronto rider snagged the victories south of the 49th parallel, so he pulled on the stars and stripes each time he stood on the podium. Since the beginning of the year, Barry—son of Michael and Dede Barry—has been racing with a U.S. licence instead of a Canadian one. He has dual citizenship as his father is from Toronto and mom is from Milwaukee, Wisc. In this episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast, Ashlin delves into this decision.The 16-year-old rider also discusses some of his results abroad. In March, he won Tour du Bocage et de l'Ernée 53. It was his first UCI race, a 2.1, in Europe. Later, he came in seventh at Paris-Roubaix Juniors. It was an experience he enjoyed, even with the tough cobbles of the Hell of the North. In fact, he found it easier to race on the pavé than to ride over them in his race reconnaissance. Since the event is held on the same day as the elite and under-23 men's events, the roads were lined with fans. In the final cobbled sectors, he was hit with sounds of the cheering crowds, which gave him a boost. He's keen to return to that race next year.Looking ahead, Barry has his sights on the world championships, both the TT and the road race. His U.S. titles qualified him for those races around Zurich, Switzerland. It's the one-day races that have captured his imagination, such as worlds, Paris-Roubaix, Tour of Flanders, Milan-San Remo, and even the Olympics. With his talent, it seems he'll be in the mix in those events in the years to come.This episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast is supported by MS Bike.

When Geraint Thomas first rode the Tour de France in 2007, he wasn't even expected to make it past the first week. A track rider then, a year away from winning gold in Beijing, the Welshman gritted his teeth to survive the mountains of France and finish 140th.Never in his wildest dreams did he expect to return 11 years later and win the famous yellow jersey.Thomas's career has been remarkable in both its longevity and scope, winning gold on the track at the 2008 and 2012 Olympics, conquering cobbled Classics on the road, before becoming one of the best Grand Tour riders of his generation. Now 37, he's still aiming for more success this season.Here at Just Ride, we thought what better way to kick-start season two than by inviting our first Tour de France winner onto the show! Rob and Eliot absolutely loved chatting to ‘G', picking his brains on the intricacies of Grand Tour tactics, internal team conflict, and how easy it is for Geraint to pop down the shops in his native Cardiff – plus much, much more.Get in touch with us @robwarner970 & @eliotjackson.

Megan Hottman earned her B.A. in Corporate Communications, magna cum laude, and her Juris Doctorate, both from Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska.  After law school, she accepted two consecutive judicial clerkships; one in Jackson County Circuit Court in Kansas City, Missouri and one in Jefferson County District Court in Golden, Colorado.    At the age of 29, she did what people told her was not possible - she hung her own shingle and formed Hottman Law Office (HLO), aka "TheCyclist-Lawyer.com." This practice, she says, "is the perfect combination of passion and profession - love of cycling and legal education culminated in this practice; I'm doing what I was meant to do." In 2012, she turned her attention to building up her practice, focusing exclusively on cycling law. Hottman has represented over 160 cyclists in their individual cases, as well as provided counsel to other lawyers, to cycling groups, bike shops, and organizations.  In addition to representing her own clients, she has been endorsed as a cycling expert by other lawyers.  She is known by Colorado cyclists as well as her fellow attorneys as THE go-to lawyer for anything cycling-related.  She handles cases in all 50 states, and is licensed in Missouri, Colorado, Arizona and Nebraska.  She provides frequent legal education seminars on biking laws, trends she sees in her cases and those nationwide, and education to both novice and veteran riders alike.  She also provides educational and training opportunities to law enforcement officers.  In March 2015, Hottman and her practice were featured in an article titled "Broken Spokes" in Outside Magazine.  A few months later, she was also featured on HBO Real Sports, in a "Bike Wars" episode.   In 2019, she led a group of 24 cyclists in breaking the World Record for the Longest Static Cycling class (28 hours!).Megan Hottman InstagramThe Cyclist Lawyer Instagram | WebsiteEngine Inside FilmMaximum Enthusiasm Podcast Wise Athletes Podcast ft.

In episode 153, Terry Peters, Performance Coach, joins us. Specifically Terry will be looking at: Why footballers should train in the gym How the gym impacts field based performance How to use activation sessions to improve football performance About Terry: "I worked with the Olympic Committee in Holland, I worked with a variety of sports including Table Tennis, Track Cycling and Volleyball, and I realised I would prefer to work in an environment where I would get to work every day with the same athletes, to get a become more process oriented, rather than being focused on tasks. Then Vitesse Arnhem was at the same location as the Olympic Committee, so I moved there for around 7 years, and met some really good coaches over there. One of them took me to Dubai to work with a team there as a Strength & Conditioning coach, and then I came back to work with Heerenveen in the same role. Then Peter Bosz, who I worked with at Vitesse called me, and asked whether I wanted to come and work at Bayer Leverkusen. I worked at Bayer 04 Leverkusen for 2 seasons before moving for just over a season to Olympique Lyon. Currently i've my got own company, TP Performance Coaching, and recently did consultancy work for Jumbo-Visma Roadcycling and a Premier League team. I'm currently waiting for the next big project."
