Thanks for keeping us in the loop and also for recording the audio version. It's nice to have a little bit Lionel's company while you step back from the full pod.
Has anyone been involved in so many hour records such a short space of time? By my reckoning Dan Bigham has ridden two of his own and been instrumental in supporting Joss Lowden, Ganna and advising & loaning his own Argon18 bike to Fred Meredith who set a (now broken) Junior hour record back in March. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9scR2M9GWuY
I am so glad The Cycling Podcast has added this substack if for no other reason than it allows a comment or two and in particular regards the “Velobowl” episode. I listened to that recording several weeks ago unintentionally when it queue’d after another pod. Like Daniel I typically find hour rides (and time trials) to be a little dull. On the contrary Daniel’s retelling of Ganna’s effort was outstanding - the pacing, background, interviews and overall format made it one of the best stories I have EVER listened to. The podcasting version of long form journalism at its best. And a Cirro cameo was icing on the cake so to speak. Very well done Mr Friebe!
