Love this series. “Only premium fuel in the hot rod” “Want some Oreos?” We like to think of Eric Marcotte as “The People’s Champ”. For most cycling fans, his claim to fame is winning BOTH the US Pro National Road Race and the US Pro National Criterium while maintaining

I got a few emails telling me the list of rider Strava profiles I shared the other day was incomplete, missing a favorite rider, etc… So here you all are, a damn near complete list of 2019 Tour de France rider Strava profiles: 2019 Tour de France Rider Strava Profiles

Julian Alaphilippe (Deceunick-Quick-Step) was my pre-race favorite for stage 3 of the Tour de France, the stage was practically built for him. How he did it though, was a bit of a surprise. Instead of holding out for the uphill sprint, he put in an attack with a little over

An epic video from Phil Gaimon and I share his concerns. Why does the cyclist always get blamed? There are more cars on the road, everyone’s using a cellphone, everyone’s driving their 2-ton pickup like it’s a race car and there’s a total lack of infrastructure

Two days into the Tour de France and Jumbo-Visma already has two stage victories. The Dutch team took a decisive win in today’s stage 2 team time trial in Brussels, leaving Ineos in their dust by a good 20 seconds to secure the victory. Stage 1 winner Mike Teunissen

Training hard and losing weight is a great combination for improving cycling speed, especially uphill, but doing both at once rarely works out. People hoping to lose weight with exercise often wind up being their own worst enemies, according to a new study, which was published last month in the

Despite a new face taking the win last year (Geraint Thomas), last year’s Tour de France has faced some fair criticism for being boring. Despite Thomas’ win, it marked the sixth win in seven tries for Team Sky (now Team Ineos). And the first week of racing in 2018

Velo Orange is doing and building so much rad stuff. Their latest rim is no exception! The Voyager Rim may rock classic looks but it is modernly equipped. The tubeless box section rim would look great on everything from a an all road bike to a randonneur. The polished finish

For someone used to obsessing over wattage, heartrate and how many grams I can shave from my bike, a 60-pound bike capable of hauling two kids and/or 300-pounds of cargo sounded like the last thing I would want to pedal. After-all, cycling is about going fast. I’ve done

Who doesn’t love watching the dismantling of traditional roadie culture? Cycling is for everyone, even people that don’t fit in euro sized kit. Jenn Kriske didn’t love trying to fit into cycling clothing and thankfully didn’t give up on the sport altogether. Instead, she started her

Awesome visuals. With the support of some of the best cycling videographers of this moment we celebrate the places worth taking care of. “Travelling and meeting people is both a way of life and a perpetual source of inspiration. The landscapes weâ ‚¬ „¢ve crossed matter as much as the way

Damiano Cima (Nippo-Vini Fantini Fanzine) took a very unlikely win on Stage 18 of the Giro d’Italia today as the breakaway barely held off the quickly gaining peloton in a nailbiting finale. Cima launched his sprint with about 200m to go, beating not only his two break companions but
