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?

Superb Guidance from Dr. Stephen Lane: How to have a great day at Peaks Challenge
On March 13th in 2022, the toughest one-day cycling challenge in Australia will be taking place in Victoria's majestic High Country.
Peaks Challenge: Falls Creek, will again play host to thousands of cycling enthusiasts who are keen to extend themselves and take part in what can only be described as an epic day in the saddle.
235km, 4,000m+ of elevation, over the iconic climbs of Tawonga Gap, Mt. Hotham and Falls Creek.
Bicycle Network are the hosts of this fantastic celebration of hill climbing and the man who has been working in conjunction with them for the past few years, Dr. Stephen Lane, has joined Scotty and Rosco in this episode for a chat about all things Peaks! The episode title says it all really - it's pure, expert guidance from a man who knows a thing or two about performance and getting the best out of yourself for big events.
It's a must listen for those who are thinking of taking part, and it's highly recommended for those who have been involved before but might be looking to go to another level.
Stephen is a Director and Sports Scientist at HPTek (Human Performance Technology), a cycling specific coaching business. He's completed a PhD in Biomedical Sciences with a focus on exercise nutrition and training adaptation.
In short - he really knows his shit, and he's also got a great story to tell!
We hope you enjoy the episode!
