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?

To Belgium, With Love
Rule #5 of The Velominati: The Keepers of the Cog is a simple and straightforward decree - Harden The Fuck Up.
It is this particular commandment that, as a cyclist, can be one that leads to fluctuating fortunes. With good intentions, we're always trying to display our very best 'hard bastard' characteristics and as Scotty and Rosco will chat about in this episode, the races that are coming up in the world racing calendar in the next few weeks, will require every morsel of hardness to compete in - let alone win the bloody things!
The boys dissect the World Championships in Belgium for men and women, the race that you've just gotta stay up for - Paris-Roubaix, the Astana (who you just can't trust) and Premier Tech situation, an update on the Levefere/Bennett prospective cage fight that has struck new depths and also some words of encouragement for all of our loyal, rusted on listeners.
What's left to do than dive right in...ya hard bastards!
