  • Cycling’s Weird Obsession with Shaved Legs Explained
    Why do cyclists shave their legs? For decades, we’ve been told it’s for speed — Specialized even claimed it saves 79 seconds over 40km. But what if that science is flawed? In this video, we dig into the real reasons behind cycling’s most iconic (and weirdest) ritual — from old-school tradition to group ride psychology. With insights from wind tunnel studies, Olympic bike designers, and pro riders like Alex Howes and Primož Roglič, we uncover why smooth legs became the ultimate badge of belonging in the peloton. It’s about more than watts — it’s about identity, trust, and culture. If you’ve ever wondered whether you should shave, this is the deep dive you didn’t know you needed.Surfshark - Online security starts with a VPN and I trust Surfshark.

  • Ben Healy’s INSANE Fuelling Strategy Explained
    What does it take to drop world-class riders like Van der Poel, Simmons, and Yates on a Tour de France mountain stage? For Ben Healy, it wasn’t just power or tactics — it was fueling. Healy consumed nearly 140g of carbohydrates per hour on his way to a dominant solo win on Stage 6, and today we’re breaking down exactly how he did it. With insights from WorldTour nutritionist Dr. Sam Impey, this video explores why fueling has become the new performance frontier — and what amateur cyclists can learn from it. We cover gut training, carb strategies, and why most cyclists are under-fueled, not under-trained. Surfshark - Online security starts with a VPN and I trust Surfshark.

  • Cycling’s Shift from Performance to Aesthetic (Thanks Pas Normal)
    Cycling used to be about skill — race craft, resilience, knowing when to attack. Now? It's about looking good. Style has overtaken substance, and nowhere is that clearer than with Pas Normal Studios. In this episode, we dive into how the Copenhagen-based brand transformed high-end kit into a status symbol. It’s not just clothing — it’s a cultural signal. €300 bibs, curated café stops, matching socks and frame paint… Pas Normal didn’t just sell apparel, they redefined what it means to “look like a cyclist.” But at what cost? We explore whether this shift elevated the sport — or hollowed it out. If you’ve ever felt underdressed at a group ride, this one’s going to hit home.Surfshark - Online security starts with a VPN and I trust Surfshark.

  • I Trained 6 vs 12 Hours a Week: What the Data Says
    What happens when a lifelong Cat 1 racer cuts training volume in half? For 12 years, I trained 12–15 hours weekly. Then life changed — and I dropped to 6. This episode breaks down exactly what happened: the watts lost, the kilos gained, and the reality behind the numbers. Using 3 years of TrainingPeaks data, I compare my fitness at both ends — and reflect on the science (Seiler, Rønnestad, Mujika) that predicted it all. This isn't about shortcuts. It's about understanding the trade-offs: performance vs sustainability, volume vs life. If you’ve ever wondered whether you can get fast on 6 hours a week — this is the honest, data-backed answer.

  • The €8 Million Netflix Disaster Cyclists Hated
    Netflix spent €8 million to bring cycling to a global audience — and got it completely wrong. In this episode, we unpack how Unchained misrepresented the Tour de France, damaged trust with riders, and failed to grasp the sport’s unique culture of silence, strategy, and sacrifice. From Wout van Aert’s “disturbing” portrayal to key moments cut from the final edit, we explore what happens when Hollywood storytelling clashes with cycling’s unwritten code. Only 8 of 22 teams agreed to return for Season 2 — a clear signal that something broke. This is more than a bad documentary. It’s a case study in how not to tell a story — and a reminder of what makes this sport sacred.Surfshark - Online security starts with a VPN and I trust Surfshark.
