That's Not So Cycling

That's Not So Cycling

Sons and Dads

In this episode, the theme is cycling sons and dads. Our guests are youth cyclist age 15 Nathan Morris and Alex his Dad/bike mechanic/soigneur/cycling manager/etc.  We ask them about their relationship and how they navigate this with all the different roles and pressures. I also ask Albie about his own ‘Cycling Dad’. We catch up with the latest races and some of the unexpected drama of the Classics. We also enjoy some cycling commentator Carlton-isms, and of course the 'That’s So Cycling' Moment’s. Do let us know if you also have any TSC moments in the comments. Enjoy!

On The Road Again

The road racing season is well under way and in this episode we talk a bit about the Classics, the Spring races that bring Daffodils and Tulips. Serious race analysis gets binned for history. Albie also pins on a number again for his first road race of the season. We have a quiz that seems to have strayed from Mastermind, plus 'Daddy or Chips' - tune in to find out about that one. We also learn about multitasking underwear. Hope you enjoy!

The Belgium Trip

As the road season begins we say goodbye to the Cyclocross season. We are out and about at Albie's CX racing where he hits some challenges. We also visit Belgium to watch the pros in Namur, with Mathieu van der Poel and Thibau Nys in an epic battle on the stunning hillside of the city's citadel. We also witness the brutal side of Cyclocross... Lucinda Brand dominated the women's race which was hardcore. All in all, we both agree the Winter months wouldn't be the same without the joy of frites and the boss of cross. Hope you enjoy!

It's Anders Mielke!

IN THIS EXTRA SPECIAL EPISODE WE ARE JOINED BY THE LOVELY ANDERS MIELKE! WE GET TO INTERVIEW THE MAN WHO INTERVIEWS THE PRO RIDERS AT CYCLING RACES, INCLUDING THE TOUR DE FRANCE. Anders is a wonderful storyteller and takes us into the world of Pro Cycling, including his own journey from junior cyclist to creating his own podcast and becoming an established journalist working for Eurosport and TNT Sports. He tells us about his unique connection with many of the riders including his friendship with Mads Pederson. We ask about filming 'Chasing Cobbles', a TV series (2025) which he produced and directed about Mad's pursuit to win one of the cycling worlds greatest accolades - a Monument cycling race. We reflect on riders becoming pro at increasingly younger ages and the challenges this can bring. We also find out which bike race is his favourite and which bike racers he likes to interview, along with many more gems. In an honest and heart centred conversation we get a glimpse into Ander's life and his passion for cycling. He brings wisdom and a fabulous wry humour, we both agree he is as genuine in real life as he is on the TV. It is clear why he has become so well liked by fans and riders alike. We recorded this episode in December (took a while!) when Anders was in off-season. We had so much fun hanging with Anders and though Albie was nervous, he enjoyed his first big interview. Enjoy!
