This week on Zone2Speak, I’m joined by Simon Cittati and Giulio Neri, co-founders of Bike Connection Agency, to go behind the curtain of the cycling industry.

Since starting BCA in 2017, Simon and Giulio have built a business connecting bike brands with media, creators and the wider cycling community through events, communications, PR and their Bike Connection Platform.

We talk about what really happens at a bike launch, what makes a good journalist or content creator, the sometimes complicated relationship between brands and media, the rise of creators, and how the cycling industry has changed over the years.

A look at cycling from the other side of the handlebars.

We talk about what it takes to walk away from the corporate world, starting again later in life, and why Gerard chose Girona for his next chapter. We also get into why Off Grid was never meant to be just another cycling hotel, and the importance of creating spaces where people can slow down, share a meal, and connect.

Gerard shares the challenges of entrepreneurship, his approach to sustainability, the role of local food, and his thoughts on how Girona can continue to grow as a cycling destination without losing what makes it special.

A conversation about entrepreneurship, taking risks, cycling, hospitality, nature, and the idea that sometimes success isn't about building something bigger, it's about building something more meaningful.

Comfort rarely makes the list. But improving comfort actually helps you ride farther, feel fresher, and even perform better.

In this second conversation with Erik deBrun, co-founder of Redshift Sports, we move beyond the philosophy and dive into the products that have become a favorite among gravel racers, endurance cyclists, commuters, and bikepackers around the world.

We break down the ShockStop stem and seatpost in simple terms, answering the questions riders ask most:

• How do they actually work?

• Who are they designed for?

• Should you start with the stem or the seatpost?

• How much maintenance do they require?

Erik also shares the engineering process behind Redshift's products, the funny stories behind the prototypes, some of the funniest ways they've tested new ideas, and what the future of cycling comfort looks like.

If you've ever wondered whether a suspension stem or seatpost is just another cycling gimmick, or one of the smartest upgrades you can make, this episode is for you.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, Taylor shares what it's really like to cross a country one campsite at a time. We talk about the logistics, the kindness of strangers, the mental challenges of spending weeks on the bike, and why traveling at human speed allows you to experience places (and people) in a completely different way.

From unexpected friendships to the emotions of finally arriving at his father's doorstep, this conversation is a reminder that the best adventures aren't always about racing. Sometimes, they're simply about showing up.

Whether you're a bikepacker, an ultra-distance rider, or someone dreaming of your first big adventure, this episode is full of inspiration, perspective, and stories that will stay with you long after the ride is over.

Derek Teel, founder of Dialed Health, joins Zone2Speak to break down strength training for cyclists, from what actually matters in the gym to how much strength work you really need when you're balancing training, racing, work, and life.

Derek has coached everyone from everyday cyclists to elite ultra-endurance athletes, including Lael Wilcox. We talk about strength training for long-distance riders, the biggest mistakes cyclists make, mobility, core strength, training throughout the season, and what separates elite athletes from the rest.

But this conversation goes much deeper than training.

Two years ago, Derek suffered a life-changing accident that left him wondering if he would ever walk again. Today, he's back on the bike and has completed a double Everesting challenge.

We talk about what happened, rebuilding his body and identity, the mental side of recovery, and how the experience changed the way he thinks about coaching, training, and success.

And don't miss the Fire Chat at the end, a fast, fun round of strength, recovery, cycling and training questions that gets Derek's unfiltered takes on everything from squats vs. deadlifts to trainer ride vs gym session.

If you want to ride stronger, recover better, and keep riding for years to come, this one is for you.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I’m joined by endurance cyclist, photographer, and filmmaker Nacho (Natxo), the creative force behind Pedalea Films and founder-director of ACAY Cycling. His work has quietly helped shape how the ultra-distance community sees itself, not through podiums, but through people, landscapes, and emotion.

We talk about how he moved from rider to storyteller, what it’s like to witness athletes at their most vulnerable, and how a camera changes the meaning of solitude in a sport built on being alone. We also explore ACAY Cycling, Northern Argentina endurance adventure where speed is not the goal, but “Do it as slow as you can” is their motto. 

If you’ve ever wondered what ultra cycling actually feels like beyond the tracking dots, this episode is for you.

We talk about his upcoming Rwanda feature, the parallels between racing and filmmaking, and how exhaustion and vulnerability can crack us open to new perspectives.

From surf sessions and ultra-cycling stories to artistic integrity, brand collaborations, and the notion that being a little “broken” can make the world feel more vivid — this episode is about finding beauty in the raw edges of life.

We dive into the high-stakes role of a race mechanic, what it’s really like to prep bikes under pressure, and how Wayne found himself crossing over from the pits to the start line at The Traka 100.

From roadside saves to the emotional side of supporting elite athletes, Wayne shares unforgettable stories, wrenching wisdom, and why gravel means more than just grit.

Whether you're deep in the gravel scene or just love a great behind-the-scenes story, this one’s for you.

In this latest edition of Zone2Speak, I’m joined once again by cycling tech journalist and gear expert Aaron Borrill for a no-nonsense dive into what’s working—and what’s just hype—in the world of cycling tech.

We cover:

• Smart pumps: Are they worth it?

• Layering for unpredictable rides (and affordable kit that performs)

• Tubeless valve upgrades: Must-have or marketing spin?

• Gravel tire trends: width, grip, durability—what really matters?

We also explore the performance vs. price debate—when should you splurge, and when can you confidently save?

If you’re gearing up for adventure or just curious about what makes the cut from Cape Epic to coffee rides, this one’s for you.

Let’s talk gear! Let’s get nerdy!

We talk about how growing up immersed in the outdoors shaped her path, the art and responsibility of guiding others through wild places, and the lessons she’s learned while bikepacking across landscapes like the Badlands of Spain. She also opens up how she approaches sustainable adventure, and what it means to find and nurture community while living nomadically.

Kara is one of those rare people who makes you want to pack a bag, step outside, and live a little more boldly. This conversation is full of heart, wisdom, and wide-open spaces.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I’m joined by Florian Moreau, ultra cyclist, adventurer, and winner of Desertus Bikus, a 1,300km self-supported race across Spain.

Florian showed up to one of the year's toughest ultra races… on a TT bike.

No comfort setup. No “safe” choice. Just a completely different approach in a sport that usually rewards survival over speed.

We talk about the decision behind it, the risks, the trade-offs, and how it actually played out over long days through mountains, desert roads, and total isolation.

This conversation also dives into his next big project: Arctic to Tropic

Because this episode isn’t just about a result. It’s about questioning the way things are done… and what’s possible when you don’t follow the script.

We celebrate the completion of the top 10, witness emotional arrivals (confetti included!), and hear about some nail-biting last-kilometer battles. But the story doesn't end here — many riders are still out there, and the women’s podium is taking shape as they close in on Gate 13 in Detmold.

I also reflect on the incredible organization of this race — the care, the community, the camaraderie — and the unforgettable people I've met along the way. This is more than a race; it’s a moving family.

And yes, we talk about scratches — or rather, something we might need a better name for. Because when you’ve ridden 2,000–3,000 km, you’ve done something extraordinary.

Join me for the ride, the finish line feels, and a look ahead to the big celebration at Sunday’s Finisher Party!

Sjors has worked both inside and outside the pro peloton, including with Movistar Team, giving him a rare perspective on what cycling looks like from within and how it is presented to the world.

Because cycling is not just what we see on race day. It is the quiet moments, the unseen struggles, the human dynamics that rarely make it into highlights.

We talk about how he found his way into storytelling, the creation of Nafent, and why places like Girona have become cultural hubs for riders and creatives alike.

This is a conversation about perspective. About what we choose to show. And about the moments that define the sport, even when no one is watching.

From their first rides together to building a growing movement, we talk about the adventures that shaped their journey, and the powerful stories of women who’ve found courage and friendship through bikepacking.

But her story didn’t begin on a bike.

Juliana grew up inside the controversial religious group Children of God, separated from her mother at a young age, and endured years of instability before eventually escaping in her early twenties. She later co-authored the international bestselling memoir Not Without My Sister and went on to write This Road I Ride, chronicling her journey around the world by bicycle.

Since that record-breaking ride, she has placed top-10 overall in events like the Transcontinental Race and finished 4th overall in the Trans Am Bike Race across the United States, competing alongside and often ahead of the strongest men in ultra cycling.

In this episode, we talk about survival, risk, grief, healing, and what drives someone to chase the edge of human endurance. We explore how cycling became both escape and medicine, and what she’s still searching for today.

This conversation is about far more than distance. It’s about resilience, courage, and discovering strength you didn’t know you had.

Plus, I caught up with VIA founder Ian To, media team wizard Francesco, and co-founder Ingeborg on what it really takes to fuel an ultra (hint: good luck finding anything beyond coffee and cornetto).

Then it’s voices from the road: raw, fast, and sometimes breathless. Welcome to the chaos, joy, and grit of ultra.

🎧 Let’s roll. Audio’s raw, the energy’s real.

In this final chapter of our VIA Race coverage, we celebrate the riders who conquered the road from the south of Italy to the Netherlands, and the community that made it more than just a race. From marriage proposals at the finish line to last-minute sprints, from medieval trade routes to modern-day friendships, this is where it all comes together.

You’ll hear from our champions: women’s winner Gosia Warelich (with fellow rider Kristian Yakubek translating) and overall winner Bruno Witch as they reflect on the challenges, the history, and the joy of the ride.

VIA isn’t just a race. It’s a living, breathing adventure. And this is how it ends.

There’s the beautiful scenery, incredible roads, and dream days on the bike… and then there’s everything happening behind the scenes. Route planning, logistics, weather, mechanical problems, tired legs, constant travel, and, of course, dealing with cyclists who all have very different ideas of what makes a “good day” on the bike.

We talk about the best parts of the job, the hardest parts, the riders who test your patience, the moments that make it all worthwhile, and what it’s like to essentially live out of a suitcase while making someone else’s cycling holiday happen.

A different perspective on cycling, and one I’ve never explored on Zone2Speak before.

This episode is all about the analog cyclist: riding more, tracking less, and remembering that cycling can be about something other than numbers.

We talk about data, gadgets, performance, riding by feel, and why sometimes the best ride is the one where you have absolutely no idea what your average speed was. Because not every ride needs to be productive.  Not every ride needs to make you fitter. But they all can. Data is important. But you can analyze all (or nothing) later. 

Maybe sometimes you just need a bike, a good road, and nowhere you particularly need to be.

This week on Zone2Speak, Juliana sits down with professional gravel racer, Bonk Babes Podcast co-host, and all-around good human, Danni Shrosbree.

Known for her honesty, humor, and refreshing perspective on the sport, Danni has built a reputation for proving that you can be fiercely competitive without taking yourself too seriously.

In this conversation, we talk about her journey into gravel racing, life as a professional athlete, the growth of women's racing, and why community matters just as much as results.

We also dive into the success of the Bonk Babes Podcast, social media, authenticity, and the challenge of staying true to yourself in a sport that can sometimes take itself a little too seriously.

Plus, plenty of laughs, a fun Fire Chat round, and a conversation that perfectly captures why so many people love following Danni both on and off the bike.

Whether you're chasing podiums or just chasing good days on the bike, this episode is a reminder that cycling should be fun.

But this conversation goes far beyond a change of address.

We talk about building a life around bikes, balancing racing with parenthood, growing a family while staying connected to the cycling community, and how both of them have evolved through the incredible rise of gravel cycling.

Ted reflects on life after the WorldTour, Unbound, and the sport's transformation over the past decade, while Laura shares how becoming a mother, athlete, and community builder has reshaped her relationship with cycling.

Of course, we couldn't resist putting them through a couples Fire Chat: who's more competitive, who packs more snacks, and who is most likely to suggest another crazy adventure?

A fun, honest conversation about bikes, family, adventure, and embracing change.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with cyclist, USA Cycling–certified coach, and community advocate Marcos Magalhães to explore what drives someone to keep going long after comfort disappears.

With multiple ultra events under his belt, including the American Long Distance Classic (SF–LA), Cheaha Ultra, and Across Florida, Marcos shares how endurance sport shaped not only his athletic journey, but his mindset, purpose, and approach to helping others. 

We also dive into Projeto Cura, the initiative that connects endurance, healing, and community, and discuss what it really means to ride for something bigger than yourself. 

This episode is about grit, generosity, and discovering meaning through movement, on the bike and beyond.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I’m joined by Olivier, founder and race director of Inner Scape, a 4,000km+ ultra-endurance cycling event that runs from North to South Vietnam.

We talk about why Vietnam is such a powerful and complex setting for ultra cycling, what it takes to build a race across jungle roads, mountain passes, coastal plains, and chaotic cities, and how culture, people, weather, and logistics all shape the rider experience.

This conversation goes beyond maps and distances, into what it means to live in Vietnam, to work with local communities, and to create a race that challenges riders physically, mentally, and emotionally.

If you’re curious about ultra cycling, self-supported racing, or Vietnam as a destination that surprises at every turn, this episode is for you.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with Elias Ejderhamn, a photographer based between Annecy and Chamonix whose work captures the raw emotion of endurance, sport, and the human experience. Elias is the PX3 Sports Photographer of the Year and has represented Sweden at the World Photographic Cup, but what truly defines his work is the way he sees people, not just athletes.

We talk about his photography journey, how mental health led him outside the traditional school system, and why movement and sport became such powerful subjects for his lens. Elias shares his relationship with cycling, how he found his way into cycling photography, and what it takes to capture endurance beyond speed or podium moments.

If you’re interested in storytelling, endurance, creativity, or finding clarity in motion, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I sit down with Patrícia, the explorer and outdoor photographer behind missroofless, whose images carry the force of the ocean, the mood of the mountains, and the honesty of real adventure. 

We talk about how a childhood connection to the outdoors became a lifelong calling, how she shifted from architecture to full-time storytelling, and what it’s really like to live a “roofless” life.

Patrícia shares the story behind her National Geographic award-winning photograph and the emotional endurance it takes to chase light, face fear, and return home with images that speak louder than words.

If you love the ocean, crave adventure, or dream of living closer to nature — this episode is your permission slip.

We hear from Gregor Towers, our 10th place finisher, who tells us about the glorious moment he ate a McFlurry in the shower (ultra-recovery, anyone?). Then it’s time to catch up with the Biking Viking, and we go behind the scenes with Olivier, one of the incredible volunteers who’s been making magic happen this last week of the race. 

Also in this episode: – Riders racing the clock to make it in time for Sunday’s Finisher Party – Equipment falling apart but spirits holding strong – A near-record-breaking ride that won one rider a free dinner – And our call to rename “scratches,” because anyone who’s ridden 2,000+ km deserves better.

Stick around till the end for a teaser of rider interviews still to come. The race might be winding down, but the stories are only getting better.

Plus, in History Part IV, we ride through the misty Vosges and into the Teutoburg Forest, tracing the ghosts of Roman legions and lost eagle standards. And finally, I check in with the riders on the road and at Refuge 1 to hear what’s fueling their fire as the Alps fade behind them.

From late-night climbs up Sella di Leonessa to slippery descents and hard choices in Umbria, the riders are pushing through one of the most challenging stretches of the route so far. Some made it to Gate 2—others are still grinding their way there.

In this episode, we hear:

🌧 James powering through a rainy late-night ride up Leonessa with a little fear, a little luck, and a lot of grit.

🎒 Matt on his hike-a-bike adventures through the rough stuff.

🚴‍♂️ Wayne Harrod’s update from the climb, nursing his “stumpy” and giving it all he’s got.

This is ultra-cycling at its rawest: tired legs, wild weather, and those roadside chats that remind us why we love it. Stick around as the race heads north, the stories roll in, and the dots keep moving.

It’s Day 1, and after a lively registration day in Giovinazzo, 120+ riders rolled out just after 8 a.m. — a bit later than planned, thanks to some very Italian policing and cappuccino logistics (can’t blame them, really).

Today’s route launched the riders into the first big climbs, with two major goals on the radar: Castel del Monte, a 13th-century hilltop citadel and official Gate I, and the leg-burning ascent to Montevergine, where the true climbing begins — over 3,500 meters of elevation packed into the day.

I break down who’s leading, who’s taking alternate routes, and how the early race strategies are shaping up. We’ve got returning champs, dark horses, and velomobiles making bold moves.

And best of all? You’ll hear voices straight from the race. I caught up with riders in motion — sometimes running beside them, other times yelling questions from a car window — so while the audio is raw, the stories are real.

I didn’t catch every name, but I hope you feel the energy, grit, and spirit of this incredible ride.

What if one of the most important pieces of cycling equipment isn't your bike... but the tiny tool you almost forget you're carrying?

This week on Zone2Speak, Juliana sits down with Peter Eisenegger, the founder of DaySaver, to talk about the idea that inspired one of the most innovative multi-tools in cycling and why being prepared can completely change the way we experience riding.

Peter shares how a passion for engineering, adventure, and simplicity led to the creation of DaySaver, a tool designed to disappear into your bike until the moment you need it most. We explore what makes great design so difficult, and how innovation happens when you refuse to accept that "good enough" is good enough.

Beyond the products, this is a conversation about freedom and the quiet confidence that comes from knowing you're ready for whatever the road or trail throws at you. Peter also shares his own relationship with cycling.

Whether you're racing gravel, heading out on a weekend adventure, or crossing continents by bike, this episode is a reminder that freedom often comes from being prepared, and that sometimes the simplest ideas have the greatest impact.

We talk about racing with a neurodivergent mind, navigating pressure and identity, and what it really means to show up fully, on the bike and in everyday life. No filters. No buzzwords. Just a real conversation about mindset, self-trust, and finding strength in being wired differently.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt “too much,” “different,” or outside the mold, and learned how to turn that into fuel.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with Josh Sprague, founder of Orange Mud, to talk about building products from real-world frustration.

After years of racing triathlon, mountain biking, and endurance events, Josh kept running into the same problem. Gear that looked good but failed in real conditions. Instead of accepting it, he started building his own solutions. That mindset became Orange Mud.

We talk about the early days of creating something from nothing, what endurance sport teaches you about design and durability, and why the best ideas often come from things that annoy you enough to fix.

This is a conversation about problem solving, staying practical, and building things that actually hold up when it matters.

In this powerful episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with Sarah fresh off her record-breaking LEJOGLEJOG ride. We talk about the physical and emotional depths she had to navigate during this historic effort, the autoimmune condition that once left her unable to walk, and how she transformed pain into power.

We also dive into the critical role of her support crew, her decision to fundraise through the ride, and how she’s using cycling as a tool for impact. Through this journey, Sarah raised awareness and funds for The Bike Project and Bikes for Refugees, two organizations dedicated to providing bikes and mobility to displaced people and refugees rebuilding their lives.

Sarah’s story is a testament to the idea that strength isn’t always about power—it’s about perseverance, purpose, and community.

Whether you're a cyclist, a dreamer, or someone navigating your own comeback, this one’s for you.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with Sophie Potter @potter.sophie, a rider who represents a growing shift in cycling culture. One that moves away from performance and toward connection, exploration, and experience.

Sophie has ridden across countries, explored places like Africa by bike, and built a relationship with cycling that feels refreshingly real. Not optimized. Not pressured. Just bikes, people, and the freedom to go.

We also dive into her new project, launching bike trips designed around human connection and shared experience, not competition.

This conversation is a reminder that the most important part of cycling is not how fast you go, but why you ride in the first place.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with Jules Muzard, fresh off his win at InnerScape, one of the longest and most demanding ultra cycling races in the world.

We go beyond Vietnam into his wider journey through ultra cycling, including races like Desertus and Marseille Napoli, and how experience shapes decision-making when fatigue takes over.

This is a conversation about more than just results. It is about pacing, resilience, and learning how to stay in the race when your body and mind start pushing back.

If you are curious about ultra racing, or you have ever wondered what it takes to go all in over multiple days on the bike, this one is for you.

After winning Traka 560 and The Rift 330, second on Unbound XL, and racing across Brazil and the Atacama Desert in Chile, Maddy has discovered a new passion for pushing beyond traditional race distances and learning what she's truly capable of.

In this episode, we discuss how winning Traka changed her confidence, what she's learned from racing outside Europe, and how focusing on training and racing fewer races has become important to her.

Away from the bike, we also chat about her love of cooking, life after getting engaged, balancing racing with life off the bike, and what's next as she continues to chase bigger challenges around the world.

Whether you're curious about ultra-distance racing or simply looking for inspiration to step outside your comfort zone, this conversation is full of honest reflections, lessons learned, and plenty of laughs.

In the women’s race, punctures and brake drama shake up the standings, and the gap tightens once again. We hear from riders at Refuge 1 and on the road,  including a bonus chat where VIA Race founder Ian To jumps in with questions for Sam Muscat.

Plus, in our Route History Part III, we travel through Roman trade routes, bear-emblazoned refuges, the thunder of the Rhine Falls, and the watchful shadows of the Black Forest’s Vulture’s Nest.

From dead ends to cake, it’s another unforgettable day on the road.

And while there’s no History Part III today, stay tuned — it’s coming soon, and it’s worth the wait.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I’m joined by José Cabeça, a Portuguese athlete who began his career in cycling and triathlon before making a bold and unconventional switch to cross-country skiing, a sport with almost no infrastructure in Portugal.

Despite starting skiing later than most, José went on to represent Portugal at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, becoming the country’s best-placed cross-country skier to date. Along the way, he’s trained without snow at home, relied on rollerskiing and overseas camps, and recently secured another Olympic quota spot for Portugal heading toward Milan-Cortina 2026.

This is a story about endurance beyond borders and what’s possible when commitment outweighs circumstance.

The women’s race brings new moves too, Joanna Rumińska-Pietrzyk rides through the night to take the lead, while Gosia Warelich faces some wild detours on the map. Route choices, rest strategies, and pure grit are shaping the leaderboard.

We also hear from Jakub Tomasik at Refuge 1, Joanna looking for a place to sleep, and Marc Bühel gives us an update on that dog bite.

Climbs, chaos, and cold descents. Day 4 is a turning point in VIA.

There are no prizes. No podium. No pressure to perform. Just long days, big mountains, and an experience that goes deeper than numbers ever could.

This conversation explores discomfort, connection, burnout, and the quiet shift happening in cycling right now. Because maybe the hardest rides aren’t the ones we race… They’re the ones that change us.

On this episode of Zone2Speak, I’m joined by Kat Stene, an Australian sports physiotherapist based in Girona and the founder of Força13, a trusted performance and movement hub for cyclists from all over the world.

We go deep into saddle sores: why they show up, why they can appear even when riders feel like they’ve done everything right, and what’s actually happening in the body under fatigue, heat, and load. Kat shares practical insight on prevention, in-race management, and when discomfort crosses the line into something that needs real intervention.

This is an honest, science-based conversation for riders who spend long hours, and long days on the bike.

At just 19, Vedangi Kulkarni became the youngest woman to cycle around the world, riding solo across 14 countries and 29,000 kilometers — and she hasn’t slowed down since.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, Vedangi shares the story behind that first wild ride and what pushed her to take on the challenge again in 2024, this time in pursuit of the world record.

We talk about growing up in Pune, navigating solo travel as a South Asian woman, and how she handles fear, doubt, and physical limits with unshakable grit. Vedangi isn’t just breaking records — she’s breaking barriers and rewriting what adventure looks like.

Fresh off an incredible second place at Unbound 200 after one of the most brutal editions in the race’s history, Gee takes us inside the chaos of what many are calling the hardest Unbound yet.

Heat, crashes, mechanicals, survival mode, and somehow… still sprinting for the podium after 300+ kilometers.

But this conversation goes far beyond one race.

We talk about:

• transitioning from road racing into gravel
• life in Girona
• women’s gravel racing exploding in level and visibility
• whether Unbound has become bigger than cycling itself
• and why suffering in gravel somehow keeps people coming back

This is a conversation about chaos, resilience, identity, and the strange beauty of races that push people far beyond their limits.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with Mérida, professional hype girl, TEDx speaker, and founder of Project Fearless, to talk about confidence, courage, and what it really means to take up space in sport and in life.

From her work supporting women and non- binary-led initiatives and communities like No Ordinary Women, to her own adventures on gravel, Mérida shares how confidence has a branding problem, and how reframing fear, visibility, and self-belief can change the way we show up on and off the bike.

This conversation is honest, energizing, and deeply motivating, the kind that makes you sit a little taller, speak a little louder, and ride a little braver.

If you have ever felt “not enough,” this one’s for you.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with Tegan Phillips, a cyclist and comedy creator who has turned bike fails, awkward moments, and the beautiful chaos of cycling into laugh out loud storytelling. From performing cycling stunts and sketches, to creating cycling merch, Tegan has carved out a space where humor and riding collide in the best possible way.

But her journey doesn’t stop at comedy. Tegan has found herself in some wildly unexpected places, from riding in the pro car at Tour de France Femmes, to sharing the road with Tadej Pogačar in Slovenia, experiences most cyclists only dream about. 

We also dive into her creative process, how she chooses locations for her adventures, her growing presence in the cycling world, her artwork and illustrations, and why humor might be one of the most powerful tools for making cycling more inclusive.

This episode is a reminder that cycling doesn’t always have to be serious to be meaningful, sometimes the best rides come with laughter, creativity, and a willingness to laugh at yourself.

If you love bikes, comedy, and not taking life too seriously, this one’s for you.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I’m joined by Erika Alvarado, triathlete, endurance athlete, and founder of Atacama Spirits Gravel, an ultra-endurance gravel race set in northern Chile’s Atacama Desert.

Erika shares the story behind creating Atacama Spirits Gravel, the realities of organizing an event in such a remote environment, and what riders discover about themselves once they’re alone in the desert.

This episode is about more than gravel racing. It’s about creating spaces where people meet themselves when comfort disappears.

With just over 1,000 kilometers to go, sleep strategies, smart routing, and mechanical discipline are beginning to shape the outcome. And further back, the mid-pack riders continue their own quiet epics: enduring, adapting, and pressing on.

Rider Interviews: In this episode, I catch up with a mix of voices from the road:

• Francesco Fumanelli on the surreal mindset of ultra fatigue

• Philipp Hanneck and Alex Groehl on route decisions and mental resets

• James Benson-King, Jair, and Sam Muscat on weather, pacing, and surprises

• Plus, a special cameo from VIA founder Ian To joining in some of the riders' interviews

Real riders. Real stories. One brutal, beautiful race.

From the pro peloton to the weekend warrior scene, doping has evolved far beyond elite sport, and Josh brings his trademark insight to unpack how we got here, why it happens, and what it means for the integrity of endurance athletics.

We discussed the blurred lines between performance optimization and cheating, the rise of “amateur doping”, the role of social pressure and biohacking, and how athletes can stay true to themselves in a culture obsessed with marginal gains.

This episode is an honest, nuanced look at the ethics, psychology, and future of clean sport.

Listen if you care about cycling, integrity, and what it really means to compete with heart.

A three-time world champion, Petra has lived multiple cycling lives: elite downhill racer, gravel competitor, adventure rider, and nomadic explorer. Whether she’s charging down a mountain or settling into long gravel miles, Petra rides with a rare blend of fearlessness, humility, and deep joy for the sport.

In this conversation, Petra shares her perspective on longevity in sport, the mental game of fear and confidence, the evolution of women’s cycling, and why racing today is less about results, and more about connection, curiosity, and fun.

An ambassador for Reilly Titanium, Strada Handbuilt Wheels, POC Sports, and Panaracer, Petra embodies what it means to live boldly outdoors, to keep reinventing yourself, and to ride with heart at every stage of life.

This episode is a reminder that cycling is about freedom, movement, and choosing joy, again and again.

In this episode, I'm joined by gravel racer Max Karginov and his coach, Dr. Artur Barsumyan, to explore the relationship that exists long before race day. From adapting training plans when life gets in the way to navigating tough conversations, building trust, and balancing data with intuition, we pull back the curtain on what coaching really looks like.

Using their build-up to Traka 360 as a starting point, we discuss why perfect training blocks are rare, how coaches decide what matters when sessions are missed, and what athletes are really thinking when things don't go according to plan. 

Whether you work with a coach, coach others yourself, or simply want to become a smarter cyclist, this episode offers an honest look at the partnership behind performance and why adaptation often matters more than perfection.

Before building suspension stems and seatposts that became cult favorites in gravel, endurance, and ultra cycling, Erik worked on everything from military aircraft to landmine clearance equipment. Now, he’s applying that same engineering mindset to solving a very different problem: helping cyclists ride farther with less pain.

This conversation goes beyond bike components, it’s really about how cycling culture is changing. Because maybe numb hands, neck pain, and destroyed backs don’t have to be part of the experience anymore.

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I’m joined by Renee McGregor, one of the leading voices in sports nutrition, RED-S and athlete health, for a conversation about something that can be incredibly easy to overlook in endurance sport: the difference between performance and health.

We talk about low energy availability and RED-S, why losing your period shouldn’t be seen as a normal consequence of hard training, and how the pursuit of being lighter can sometimes come at a significant cost.

We also cover fuelling for endurance cycling, carbohydrates, training fasted, recovery, and the signs your body may be struggling even when your performance still looks good.

And the conversation goes beyond female athletes. We discuss hormonal health through different stages of life, including perimenopause and menopause, as well as testosterone and what men should understand about their own hormonal and nutritional health.

This is a conversation about looking beyond watts, weight, and race results, and recognising that long-term performance is built on a healthy body.
