Talking Over You
Hannah and Sarah Sturm grew up in the same household, live in neighboring towns, and hang out all the time. But in one respect, they couldn’t be more different: Sarah is a professional cyclist while Hannah has spent most of her life successfully avoiding bikes at all costs. They both know that Sarah has a weird job, and Hannah isn’t afraid to ask the sorts of questions that most people in the bike world would be too embarrassed to ask. Why is there a Queen Stage but not a King Stage? How old is gravel racing? Does everyone pee in their chamois? And most importantly, why on earth would anyone choose this as a job? Join the Sturm sisters every week to hear them laugh about their vastly different careers, argue about their shared memories, and drop unfiltered takes on just about everything.
Talking Over You
Titanic, techy talky, and Keegan's luteal phase
The Sturms are back in the studio this week and have a lot to catch up on. Hannah went to Albuquerque and got a dulcimer update, Sarah flew business class back to the US from Spain, and both of them are feeling reflective about the career paths they could have taken in an alternate life. In the realm of bikes, they get in way over their heads trying to explain (and define) chain waxing, from crock pots and Vegas to a word that neither of them can pronounce. Then, they dig into all the cycling drama that happened last week, including upsets at the Ironman World Championship, carnage at Little Sugar, a quibble with wardrobe at the final XCO World Cup of the season, and some serious Dutch drama at the Gravel World Championships.
