Kicking off the Lifetime Grand Prix series in style, Alex Wild joins us fresh from his 6th-place finish at Sea Otter. In this tell-all episode, Alex opens up his files and shows exactly what it takes to be at the sharp end of the most competitive gravel race in the U.S. We break down his preparation, in-race fuelling, tactics, and the crazy dynamics of Sea Otter’s early-season chaos. From threshold numbers to team whispers and start-line nerves, this is your front-row seat to the power, pressure, and politics of elite-level U.S. gravel racing. Whether you’re chasing results or just curious what the pros are really doing—this one’s not to be missed.
What happens when the identity that once drove you starts holding you back? In this honest and wide-ranging conversation, Anthony reconnects with Brian Keane—author, speaker, and ultra-endurance coach—to explore the line between discipline and dysfunction. They dive into self-doubt, social pressure, and the reality of rebuilding when your goals shift. Brian shares what a decade in fitness has taught him, how he's reframed his training around purpose, and why foundational movement always wins out over trends. From Ozempic to testosterone, strength periodization to mindset shifts, nothing’s off the table. If you’re feeling stuck, questioning your routine, or just curious about what sustainable growth really looks like—this episode is for you.Our S&C Plan - https://www.roadmancycling.com/strengthandconditioningIf you would like to join Anthony & Sarah and race the L'Etape by Tour de France event in Las Vegas go tohttps://lasvegas.letapebytourdefrance.com/ and use the following code to get a 20% discount at checkout! - Roadman20REAPCustom Carbon Composition Bikes made in the UK.

In this episode of the Roadman Cycling Podcast, Anthony shares a deeply personal reflection on what it means to evolve as an athlete beyond competition. Sparked by a quote from Naval Ravikant — “Specialization is for insects” — he explores the danger of over-identifying with a single role, like "the cyclist." From chasing KOMs to chasing sovereignty, Anthony unpacks his transition from elite performance to purposeful movement, joy, and broader self-expression. With insights from Stoic philosophy and hard-won experience, this episode invites listeners to redefine their athletic identity at any age. Athlete 2.0 isn’t slower — it’s freer, stronger, and more complete.Our S&C Plan - https://www.roadmancycling.com/strengthandconditioningIf you would like to join Anthony & Sarah and race the L'Etape by Tour de France event in Las Vegas go tohttps://lasvegas.letapebytourdefrance.com/ and use the following code to get a 20% discount at checkout! - Roadman20REAPCustom Carbon Composition Bikes made in the UK.

Is road racing dead? This week, Anthony dives into the decline of traditional road racing—not just in Ireland, but across the UK and US too. We talk about what’s changing, why gravel and fondos are booming, and whether road racing can bounce back.

Want to ride faster without feeling like your heart’s about to explode? World-class coaches like John Wakefield and Dan Lorang have cracked the code, and it’s way simpler than you think. Today, we’re diving into heart rate concerns—like whether hitting 180 bpm on a climb is totally normal or a red flag—and the key to balancing consistency and intensity in your training. We’ll also break down the science of fueling properly, why mixing Shimano and SRAM might not be the disaster you think, and how the pros bounce back from brutal crashes (looking at you, Pogačar).

Today Anthony chats with the ever inspiring Anthony O'Brien and they discuss the big question "How far can an amateur go by training like a pro?" It all starts with mentality—setting goals, keeping promises to yourself, and silencing doubt through hard work. Discipline isn't just about showing up; it’s about staying consistent when no one’s watching. Whether it’s boxing, triathlon, or running a 2:22 marathon in Seville, the mindset carries over. Training through injury, embracing setbacks, and taking inspiration from Jocko’s “Good” philosophy—resilience is key.Then there’s lifestyle—diet, supplements, and the willpower to say no to ice cream. Every decision builds momentum. From gym sessions in lockdown to VO2 hill reps, the training load is real, but so is the reward. How do you stay motivated 24/7? You don’t. You build habits, set clear goals, and trust the process. In the end, how close can you get? Closer than you think.Our S&C Plan - https://www.roadmancycling.com/strengthandconditioningIf you would like to join Anthony & Sarah and race the L'Etape by Tour de France event in Las Vegas go tohttps://lasvegas.letapebytourdefrance.com/ and use the following code to get a 20% discount at checkout! - Roadman20REAPCustom Carbon Composition Bikes made in the UK.

Strength and conditioning (S&C) isn’t just for athletes—it’s essential for everyone. In this special Roadman Cycling Podcast episode, I share why I’m committing to S&C and why you should, too.

hard to understand while riding my bike outside in the wind
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You mean cycle touring? Nothing new about it, except the different bags.
People forget that before hooked rims, all tube type rims were hookless. I had two blowouts, one at speed, which i survived. I would never ride another hookless rim.
The guy seems drunk.
Can't beat a good podcast while out riding your bike. thank you guys Happy New Year

Hi there! I wanted to let you know that I absolutely love the podcast you shared with us. I've listened to it multiple times already! I was wondering if you might be able to recommend similar podcasts that would be a good fit for my website (https://tricombzzz.com/products/tricombzzz-full-spectrum-natural-tincture-1-500-mg). Since my website is focused on acupuncture services, I think this type of podcast music would be perfect for background listening. I would really appreciate any suggestions or help you could provide. Thanks so much!
