Half Wheelin' Podcast
Half-Wheeling is when the cyclist next to you, rides half a wheel length in front of you no matter the speed. Is it a dominance thing or a lack of etiquette? Maybe it's ignorance or arrogance? Perhaps that depends on the person. If you're an avid follower of Pro Cycling in all forms, a Club Crit winning aspirant, the rider chasing that segment KOM or just a Weekend Warrior, this could be the Podcast for you. Many cycling podcasts explore the nuances, the heroes, the characters and the beauty of the toughest sport on Earth. A lot of them take on a serious tone, intent on offering up their best...this podcast is not one of them. In fact, we'll deliberately stay away from clear thinking, opting instead for an 'educated bloke at the pub' level of wisdom. And who knows, maybe (surely?) deep truths will occasionally reveal themselves?

"... the truth is, we never left you"
Following the climax of being on location at the World champs in Wollongong, and of course producing brilliant shows, Ross and Scott are back to caress your cycling spirits, with an episode full of musings and mirth, bridging the road-seasons.
Initially it’s a reflection on Ross’s heroic recent Everesting and the reason why, and Scott shares a setback we’ve all experienced, when something we love gets significantly interrupted.
Off season in Europe means one thing, and that is the mud, sand and stacks of CX. In reality it’s only about the big 2, Wout and Coolangatta Gold isn't it? - their form, the upcoming CX worlds and how might it play out into their road season? Ross (cue eye-roll 😊) follows in even further, posing the question: How does Wout stack up, as a great?
We discuss 2022’s rider of the year, and it aint who you think, and aint even close.
Finally we finish with 2 slaps across the face - a lightening one on the fucked things about pro cycling and a longer exploration of Quickstep’s main man Patrick Lefevre, and whether we might be seeing the beginning of Lou Lou’s career tail-off? So sit on the wheel and spin easy!
