The Cyclist Pod
S1E88 - Stephen and Raya autopsy the 2nd lockdown and how the cycling world has gone nuts. And bolts. And stems, cogs, pins, derailleurs... they've all gone. It's the great parts shortage of 2021. We're only a few weeks from fist fighting in the aisles of Evans Cycles for a brake cable.
info_outline Show 87 - Infrared, Jealousy and ApologiesThe Cyclist Pod
S1E87 - Raya's got THAT watch (before ANYONE, the jammy b*tch). After Stephen stops grumbling, we discuss needles, axles, and apologise for the THING YOU CAN'T STOP EMAILING US ABOUT.
info_outline Show 86 - Dog Pics, Fog Trips, Dutch lips and a DeathwishThe Cyclist Pod
S1E86 - Socially distanced Stephen and Raya cover cycling in fog, breaking spokes mid-ride, how our podcast strategy is ruled by dog pictures, and Raya's deathwish.
info_outline Show 85 - VelockdownThe Cyclist Pod
S1E85 - Coronabored? Same. So we're aiming to be the antidote. If not the vaccine. There's some public service broadcasting to help explain what you can actually do cycling-wise during a lockdown.
info_outline Show 84 - Look, it's Me or the BikeThe Cyclist Pod
S1E84 - Stephen discovers his love of his bicycle has been cited in his divorce. Tragedy or badge of honour? BADGE.
info_outline Show 83 - No Half Wheeling MeasuresThe Cyclist Pod
S1E83 - pandemic killed your cycling holiday? No probs. We show you where you can actually go cycling (show recorded before UK lockdown 2, so advice now useless).

info_outline Show 80 - Tour de BSThe Cyclist Pod

info_outline Show 79 - Strava SegmentsThe Cyclist Pod
S1E79 - it's time to put Strava in the spotlight. Pay, you say? Pah.
info_outlineThe Cyclist Pod - now with Cyclist Magazine special offer included!
It's sunny - so Stephen and Raya are out. Cycling. OBVS.
Though they still have time to chew the fat of cycling related lockdown observations... including how the warehouses of Europe are running out of cycling kit and what this has done to the 2nd hand market. Never repaired an inner tube? Now might be time to learn.
That said, while there's less kit, there's still a kitbag. Despite barely earning, we've been buying. IT'S AN ADDICTION YOU CAN'T HELP US
And our main story - Strava. They've moved loads of stuff to pay only. Is this good? Bad? Ugly? We dive in and tear their business plan to SHREDS! (Exaggeration)
And as ever, the Velominati.
Oh, and wildlife have got cocky. They think they own the roads. Err, guys, that'll be the cyclists. Fight you for it.
Plus! An offer from super-glossy sponsor (Cyclist Magazine yeah!) which is in the end credits, in case you wanted to fast forward the whole pod (sob). Also: In this description.
