XR SPAIN
Owen Blandy, The Biking Baker, has been a friend of Bell for years. More recently, he’s been employed as the chef for the EF Pro Cycling team. A former racer himself, when he isn’t cooking for the a team in the pro peloton, he still likes to get out by bicycle and explore. Last fall, filmmaker Sam Flanigan followed Owen around on a bike packing trip around Spain following the close of the road racing season. In this episode, Owen talks about his history with cycling and how baking bread the old fashioned way keeps him centered. He also pays homage to one of the great climbs in cycling; Angliru.
