Honest Bicycle Program #80 - We Love Our Old People

by grolby

After an unplanned hiatus (sorry!!!) HBP is back! And we're fired up. This week, we go deep on a payout fiasco at the Nutmeg State Games Criterium, and chat about the Hammer Series and what that all means. Greg talks kind of a lot on this one. Whoops.

Honest Bicycle Program #79 - The Campy Parts Affair

by grolby

It's a jam-packed HBP this week! First mattio fills Greg in on the various scuttlebutt going around the world of cycling, before settling in to a discussion of illness and allergies, and how a little bit of structure in your life can make a world of difference when it comes to fitting in that riding and training we know you want to do. Our simple advice: anything you can make easier, do it.

Honest Bicycle Program #78 - A Hard Month

by grolby

This week it's just Greg and mattio while Frances is on sabbatical. We take a rummage through mattio's parts bin, share some revelations about racing while short, and talk about Caley Fretz's great piece on The Little 500 in VeloNews. We also talk about a string of tragedies in bike racing over the last month, sharing our feelings about the tragic deaths of Chad Young, Michele Scarponi and Steve Tilford in recent days and weeks.

Honest Bicycle Program #76 - Politics, Pro Cycling Edition

by grolby

We unzip our flies and take aim at that third rail: disc brakes are back on the agenda! We talk about yet another controversy, and consider the role of facts and reason in this debate (spoiler: it's minimal). Also, some new rim tech from Mavic of all people, and a reminiscence about the good old days of collegiate cycling.
