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?
Half Wheelin' Podcast
Burgess and his BikeCast ep.1 - Josie Talbot
Welcome to a new format that Burgess is playing around with.
The goal of this is to bring people from the cycling world to you, but in a format that is less formal. So why this? Well, often when I watch interviews with pro cyclists, they’re very focused on stats, or training, or diet, and to be honest, I find this a bit overdone. So I want to have a crack at something a bit different.
Each episode, I’ll be bringing you a personality from the cycling world. I’ll be working with them as a co-host, as opposed to as someone I am interviewing. Hopefully this provides you some insight into who they are as a person, and what they’re like in a more casual and less manufactured setting.
I am aware that there is a lot of growing to do. This is the first episode of this nature, and it’s my first episode solo, but I think that Josie Talbot, my guest today, offers some cool insight and really comes into her own as this conversation develops. I had a lot of fun recording this, and I hope that you have some fun listening.
