EPISODE 108 - The Future of Gravel w/ Former World Tour rider Chad Haga What up party people. Just a quick intro here because I only have 2min before I have to log into an 8hr design review summit sooo here it goes. We've got former World Tour rider, Chad Haga, on the show this week to talk about his experience transitioning into the pro gravel scene this season, including his 2nd place finish at Unbound after spending all day in the breakaway with Lachlan Morton. Tune in to hear some of his thoughts on the US vs International gravel scene, what he predicts gravel will look like in the future, and even his thoughts on tires. Speaking of tires, while we don't have a tire sponsor for the show we do have some great partners that are tire adjacent such as Silca and their Ultimate Tubeless Sealant (code bonkbrosbikewash for 15% off), Dynamic Cyclist which will help you stay nimble and sharp on the bike so you can keep it rubber side down (code BONKBROS for 10% off their fitness plans), and Bolt Skin and Shave to help you remove not only those unnecessary leg hairs but also those pesky hairs from your Cont Race Kings (code BONKBROS15 for 15% off).

He talks about the differences between European and American gravel racing, including team tactics and the importance of positioning. Chad also shares his thoughts on using aerobars in gravel racing and the challenges of racing as a team in a solo-focused sport. The conversation includes some lighthearted banter about bike brands and equipment choices. Chad discusses his experience racing the Rift and his tire choice for the race. He also talks about his setup for the Migration gravel race and the challenges of racing on rough terrain. The conversation shifts to the changing landscape of professional cycling, with younger riders entering the gravel scene and the transition from road racing to gravel. Chad expresses his satisfaction with racing gravel and the freedom it offers. The discussion touches on recovery between races and the demands of the gravel season. The conversation concludes with a lighthearted discussion about VO2 max and the perception of age in professional cycling. The conversation in this segment starts with a discussion about VO2 max tests and the results that Chad and Drew received. They joke about their VO2 max scores and how they compare to each other. The conversation then transitions to a discussion about the future of gravel racing in the US, including the potential for teams to become more involved. They also talk about the UCI's involvement in gravel racing and the popularity of longer events. The conversation concludes with listener questions about tire width preferences and how long the Bonk Bros could hold Tadej Pogacar's wheel up a climb. In this final part of the conversation, the hosts discuss crank arm length and its impact on performance and comfort. Dylan shares that he switched to 165mm cranks on all his bikes to reduce knee pain and improve his range of motion. Chad mentions that he is considering switching to 170mm cranks on his road and gravel bikes for fit reasons. They also touch on the topic of shorter cranks benefiting time trialists by allowing them to maintain a more aero position. The hosts conclude the conversation by discussing upcoming races and plans.

The Unbound Gravel race is known for its deep field and tactical racing. Chad Haga prefers not to use aerobars in gravel racing due to the nature of the terrain and the need for control. Team dynamics in gravel racing can be challenging, but having a reliable teammate can make a difference. Equipment choices, such as bike brands and clothing, can vary between regions and races. Tire choice is crucial for gravel racing, with riders opting for wider and more durable tires to handle rough terrain. The gravel racing scene is attracting younger riders who see it as a viable career option, leading to increased competition. Chad enjoys the freedom and fun of racing gravel and does not miss road racing. Recovery between races is manageable for Chad, with most races being long aerobic efforts. VO2 max testing is not always a reliable indicator of performance, and experience and body of work can be more important in evaluating a rider's abilities. VO2 max tests can provide interesting and sometimes surprising results Gravel racing in the US is likely to continue growing, with the potential for more team involvement The UCI's involvement in gravel racing is limited, and most major gravel races in the US are not sanctioned Tire width preferences vary among riders, but wider tires are generally considered faster The Bonk Bros speculate on how long they could hold Tadej Pogacar's wheel up a climb Switching to shorter crank arms can help reduce knee pain and improve range of motion. Shorter cranks may benefit time trialists by allowing them to maintain a more aero position. Crank arm length does not significantly impact power output. Chad is considering switching to 170mm cranks on his road and gravel bikes for fit reasons. The hosts discuss upcoming races and plans. Titles Tactical Racing at the Unbound Gravel Race The Importance of Team Dynamics in Gravel Racing Tire Choice and Racing the Rift Transition from Road Racing to Gravel The Future of Gravel Racing in the US Surprising VO2 Max Results and Ghosting by Vaughters Upcoming Races and Plans Benefits of Shorter Cranks for Time Trialists Sound Bites "It's a bike race, like why should I help you if it doesn't help me?" "I was gonna do a three spoke on my gravel bike" "There's gonna be a day when I just smoke you" "I'm never gonna hear the end of it" "What tires are you gonna talk about a mountain bike" "I'm gonna be on the 45c Maxxis Revers" "Care to guess the VOT max that had me ghosted by Vaughters?" "Drew, your VO2 max is eight higher than Chad's and Chad smoked you at unbound. Wasn't even close." "I largely see it just continuing the way it's been going as far as the events that are on offer." "If I'm training a lot, like probably 30 plus hour weeks, I can get some knee pain. And when you have shorter cranks, you do a little bit smaller range of motion." "The research seems to suggest that crank length doesn't impact power output. It doesn't really matter what the length of your crank is." "I don't know if there's a need for me to go to 160, but apparently SRAM is going to start doing 160mm cranks."

De sfeer was goed in het peloton. Er werd gekeuveld, gelummeld en bij tijd en wijle zelfs gelanterfant. De ontsnappers ontsnapten en de de grote mannen stiefelden richting de finish. Gelukkig is er nog Twitter. Het open riool dat het slechtste in de mens naar boven haalt. Vaughters (who?) Pinot en Lance Armstrong kibbelden als jongetjes op het schoolplein en daar kwam nog een opvallende duit in het zakje bij van onze favoriete website. Hopen dat we dit in de derde week niet meer nodig hebbenJonne, Tim en Frank praten je bij over de Giro d'Italia en blikken vooruit op de slotweek.Luisteraars van De Rode Lantaarn krijgen 10% korting op hun fietswasbeurt bij Chasse Patate met de code: RODELANTAARN10

Long-time friends, training partners, and competitors, Jonathan Vaughters and Colby Pearce have a deep racing history and relationship. With decades of experience in pro cycling, they have gained many insights about training, coaching, and the trajectory of the sport. Colby and JV first discuss their early training techniques, taught to them by their first cycling coach, Adrie Van Diemen, a Dutch exercise physiologist now with UAE Team Emirates. Many of the techniques are now considered to be standard practice. The pair reminisce about how they were ahead of their time, in many ways, even though they didn't realize it. Vaughters, who has coached many pro cyclists over the years, then gives examples of experiments gone right—and wrong—and how certain training regimens should be applied to certain types of athletes. He also openly discusses the conflict of interest in coaching athletes while also serving as their team manager. The discussion then turns to the finer details of cycling technique, including a detailed explanation of how crank length affects a rider's ability to climb, sprint, and win. JV even describes the time he swapped cranks behind the back of his former team manager, Johan Bruyneel. Next, the conversation turns to Rigoberto Urán, who finished second in the 2017 Tour de France. The Colombian's diet at that year's race included bananas and… bananas. Vaughters uses that example to illustrate how the natural and simple solution oftentimes bests all of the “advanced” nutrition expertise in the world—and how athletes often discover what works best for them and “solve their own equation.” That, and much more, in today's episode of “Cycling in Alignment.” REFERENCES Book: “One-Way Ticket: Nine Lives on Two Wheels” https://www.amazon.com/One-Way-Ticket-Nine-Lives-Wheels/dp/0143134140 Coach Adrie Van Diemen http://www.webtrainer.com/nl/

It's been a strange year for Alex Howes, as it has been for everyone. The U.S. national champion hardly got to race in the jersey he won last year — but since nationals was canceled, he gets to wear it again until the 2021 nationals. Howes also flew to South Africa to race Cape Epic as part of EF Pro Cycling's alternate program that puts its pro roadies in adventure races. But... that race never happened. The soon-to-be-father recently got back to racing. On this episode of Put Your Socks On, Howes talks about his long road with Jonathan Vaughters' team — the only pro squad he has raced for. Even before turning pro, Howes races on Vaughters' junior development team, TIAA-CREF. Also on this episode, Bobby picks Howes' brain at length for gravel gear tips...

Dit is de 30ste aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast, over sport, onderzoek en innovatie. In deze aflevering hebben Gerrit en Jurgen het over: Innovaties in het wielrennen: zijn ze allemaal zo nuttig?INLEIDING: De Tour en het WK zijn net voorbij en nu zitten we alweer midden in de Giro en de ‘voorjaarsklassiekers'. Het is eindelijk weer koers! Opvallend is dat het peloton ieder jaar weer een stukje harder lijkt te gaan. In hoeverre hebben innovaties als windtunnels, voedingsapps, hoogtestages en ketonen hieraan bijgedragen? En wat heeft de amateurfietser eigenlijk aan al die nieuwe ontwikkelingen? Je hoort het in de 30e aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast. Toen Primoz Roglic op 19 september 2020 ontredderd op de top van La Planche des Belles Filles neerzeeg vanwege het verlies van de gele trui aan zijn landgenoot Tadej Pogacar, gingen onherroepelijk de herinneringen van veel wielerliefhebbers terug naar 23 juli 1989. Even hulpeloos als Roglic ruim dertig jaar later lag die dag Laurent Fignon, de Fransman met de kenmerkende studentenbril en blonde paardenstaart, uitgeput op het asfalt van de Champs-Élysées. Weg was de gele trui en de Tourwinst: Fignon had 8 seconden te lang over de afsluitende tijdrit van Versailles naar hartje Parijs gedaan. Greg Lemond nam in 1989 de hoogste trede van het Tourpodium in. Waar de Amerikaan op de afsluitende dag zijn ‘buitenaardse' snelheid van gemiddeld 54 en een halve kilometer per uur vandaan had getoverd, was toen nog grotendeels gissen. Dat is tegenwoordig wel anders. Een goede stroomlijn op de fiets tijdens een tijdrit is een basisvoorwaarde voor een renner die hoog wil eindigen in het klassement. Het revolutionaire triatlonstuur en de Calimero-helm waar Lemond destijds mee op de proppen kwam, bleken dan ook blijvende innovaties in de wielersport. Om kleine procentjes winst te halen, laten ploegen tegenwoordig hun fietsen, helmen en kleding doormeten in de windtunnel waar ook de renners zelf opgevouwen op hun tijdritfiets de koude luchtstromen moeten doorstaan. En aerodynamica is nog maar één aspect waar een wielerteam veel aandacht, tijd en geld aan besteed. Uitgekiende trainingsschema's, gebalanceerde voedingsstrategieën al dan niet met ketonen op het menu, trainingskampen in de bergen: het heeft er alle schijn van dat wetenschappelijke kennis op alle fronten toegepast wordt in het moderne wielrennen. Maar is dit ook zo en wat is het bewijs dat deze innovaties de fietsprestatie echt helpen? In de 30e aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast nemen Gerrit en Jurgen de vernieuwingen in de wielersport van de laatste jaren onder de loep en tijdens het ‘Zoomen met Vroemen' horen zij coach Guido Vroemen uit over de laatste foefjes op het gebied van de aerodynamica.

In this episode of Life in the Peloton, Mitch Docker talks to his boss at EF Pro Cycling Jonathan Vaughters to find out what a team manager does. Vaughters founded the team and has steered it through two mergers and kept it afloat when the organisation's future looked to be in jeopardy a couple of seasons ago. But what does the role entail? Vaughters talks about team building, the constant battle to find the finance to keep the wheels turning and how he believes every World Tour rider is underpaid.

Vaughters uses that example to illustrate how the natural and simple solution oftentimes bests all of the “advanced” nutrition expertise in the world—and how athletes often discover what works best for them and “solve their own equation.” That, and much more, in today’s episode of “Cycling in Alignment.” REFERENCES Book: “One-Way Ticket: Nine Lives on Two Wheels” https://www.amazon.com/One-Way-Ticket-Nine-Lives-Wheels/dp/0143134140 Coach Adrie Van Diemen http://www.webtrainer.com/nl/ Colby’s Site: http://www.colbypearce.com/ Email: CyclingInAlignment@FastLabs.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cyclinginalignment/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CyclinginAlign_ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cyclinginalignment-110271017351743

As you might expect this podcast solely focuses on the Coronavirus and its effect on professional cycling. We're going to hear from team bosses Jonathan Vaughters, and Matt White, as well as our European Editor Stephen Farrand, who lives in Italy, and Sophie Smith, who made it home from the UAE and is safely back in Australia. But we start with Stephen Farrand and we discuss the impact of Covid-19 on the Italian race scene and how teams and the Italian public at large are struggling to cope. This was recorded just a few hours after RCS announced that Strade Bianche would not take place this weekend. Our interview with Jonathan Vaughters from EF Pro Cycling was conducted on Thursday evening but Paris-Nice was set to go ahead and EF were down to ride. Vaughters talks about how teams are trying to understand the quickly evolving situation and the various playbook scenarios they are having to consider when it comes to race selection, rosters and riders' health. Matt White's Mitchelton-Scott team was one of the first, if not the first, to announce that their men's and women's teams would be halting all racing with immediate effect. That as before Strade Bianche was canceled. In this interview White talks about the wellbeing of his riders, and the logistical stresses put on a team. He uses the example of the recent developments at the UAE Tour as an example. Finally, we hear from Australian journalist Sophie Smith on the dramatic twists that took place at the UAE Tour last week. Some teams and riders are still stuck in the UAE and will be there until mid-March but the situation for around 72 hours was fraught and tense, to say the least. In this interview with Smith, we take you through how the situation unfolded. To subscribe to the Cyclingnews podcast, click here.

Andrew Hood and Fred Dreier present their final analysis of the 2019 Tour de France. Did the race's truncated finish ruin the excitement? Will we remember Egan Bernal's victory for his stunning attack, or because of the shortened stages? Then, the guys discuss the future of Team Ineos, which now has three Tour de France champions, all of whom will want to win the race next year. How should the British squad navigate the strange leadership story that is bound to pop up? Then, we have a long and frank discussion with Team EF Education First manager Jonathan Vaughters, who has written a new book, "One-Way Ticket: Nine Lives on Two Wheels" about his experience in pro cycling. Vaughters has some great insight on cycling's so-called 'EPO era,' and the social pressures that he and his peers felt to dope. Vaughters sheds light on some of the anecdotes and opinions in his book, and talks about why he's confident in the current generation of pro cyclists.

An honest and revealing interview with Jonathan Vaughters of EF Education First. "I realised what my performance could be with EPO and I realised what it could be without it. Once you realise that, any time you're racing without it....you kind of give up."Jonathan Vaughters has always been one of the most outspoken voices in pro-cycling and, in his new book One Way Ticket, he talks frankly about doping - past and present, depression and the "five percent of joy" that keeps him in love with the sport. He stopped off on his way to Brussels to talk about the book and his career with Ian Parkinson.Meanwhile, Rouleur Editor Andy McGrath reflects on one of the sport's greatest ever teams - the multi-coloured classic champions of Mapei. How did an Italian bathroom grout manufacturer end up creating a team that's still remembered with affection by fans and riders nearly two decades after their last race?

Journalist Sam Planting laat zich in zijn werk niet leiden door sentiment, emotie of chauvinisme, maar door data. Keiharde cijfers heeft hij het liefst. Juist daarom vindt hij de strategie van Team Sky fascinerend. En minstens zo fasinerend is volgens Sam het beleid van EF Education First-Drapac p/b Cannondale-manager Jonathan Vaughters. Vaughters voert de Moneyball-strategie uit en zorgt er daarmee voor dat zijn ploegen al jaren tot de efficiënste van de WorldTour behoren. In deze speciale aflevering van Cassette bespreekt Sam Planting de artikelen die hij schreef voor wielertijdschrift De Muur. Dat was vorig jaar een stuk over de dominantie van Team Sky in de Tour de France en is dit jaar een artikel over het Moneyball-beleid van Vaughters. Het nummer met daarin het stuk van Sam is te bestellen via de webshop van De Muur.
Ian Parkinson is joined by Jonathan Vaughters, who shares the pain of keeping a top level pro team afloat; Patrick Lefevere, who explains why Quick Step are much more than a "classics" squad and Stefan Denifl, who relives last year's Vuelta stage win and contemplates life with only one chainring. Plus the Podcast Quiz. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
November 8 | Richard Moore and Lionel Birnie are at The Connaught in London's Mayfair to meet Jonathan and Ashley Vaughters.

THIS EPISODE is a recording from six months ago of a conversation Mike had with his old friend and first cycling coach, Chris Carmichael. Carmichael is a person who needs little to no introduction for most of our audience, so you won't find a lengthy biographical blurb here. For a variety of reasons, we weren't able to have the audio go live last April, but we finally got the green light over the weekend to upload the podcast. With that in mind, realize that some of the conversation might seem a bit dated, but for the most part it's an intriguing look at Chris's involvement in the sport, his early roots racing in south Florida, his thoughts and philosophies on coaching his roster of athletes, and what he considers to be the vital difference between motivation and inspiration.Don't expect this to be a hard-hitting journalistic interview; Mike isn't an investigative reporter and the podcast isn't America's Most Wanted. What you'll find here is an engaging conversation between old friends with reminiscences and stories to share. We hope you'll find it entertaining and informative.As always, Open Mic with Mike Creed is presented by The Colorado Cyclist, Mike's very first professional cycling team in 1998.

Nineteen years as a pro, tied for the record number of Tour de France starts, George recounts a life on the bike and what he's doing to keep busy now. He and Mike trade stories and talk about some of the luxuries of retirement from pro racing – like chips and calzones – and what they do and don't miss about the monomania of being a bike racer. With 35 national championship titles between them (Mike's 22 to George's 13), they have lots of history and stories to share about the past, and what the future holds in store.

THIS EPISODE Mike meets up with Garmin-Sharp's gentleman racer and patron of the peloton, David Millar, at the Tour of Alberta to share a few cocktails and discuss everything from when it's time to call it a day (Spoiler: retirement plans are revealed) and what the future holds, the desperate need to please people vs. proving something to yourself, and how that affects your racing. They explore the balance between fame and self-indulgence, caring about what people think and say about you on social media, interacting (or not) with fans, and the addictive nature and ego trip of Twitter. Creed learns the proper pronunciation of "Millar," shames David into following him on Twitter again, and we're treated to a live nature break on air.Enjoy this fascinating conversation between two very different – and yet similarly stylish – and intelligent cyclists.Open Mic with Mike Creed is sponsored by The Colorado Cyclist, Mike's very first professional cycling team in 1998.

Satisfying his constant need for attention, Mike Creed takes to the airwaves to have frank conversations with his friends, who just so happen to be figures in the world of pro cycling. Now that he's a retired mediocre bike racer, he's using his access to these athletes to humanize them, show you what he sees, and bring back a personal aspect to cycling. This is not the show for you if you're looking for controversy and the hard questions. It's more of a rambling conversation with and about the people and the sport that he loves.THIS EPISODE Mike chews the fat with one of the nicer guys in the peloton (after Creed, Jesus, and Santa Claus). Tom currently rides for Optum-Kelly Benefit Strategies, and was recently crowned the US National Time Trial Champion after a difficult period of near-miss results following his contentious positive for DHEA in 2009 – the year of his silver-medal winning finish at the US Pro National Time Trial Championships and his 4th place finish in the UCI World Time Trial Championships. Mike chats with Tom about his early start in distance running, being a chemist (an unusual job interview), sleeping in football fields, life after a doping suspension and the loss of a berth on a WT team, and his nickname as "Windpants Guy." We think you'll enjoy this in-depth interview with the gentle giant of the peloton sometimes dubbed "the Wattage Cottage."
