Loving the podcast! I have wanted to give it a listen because of an old friend, Tim Strelecki, as part of the show. I’m really enjoying the opinions and information from the whole crew. I’ve been working my way backwards and finding that each episode is worth every minute. Thank you for the content!
Unfortunately, They support biologically born men in woman’s sports. You would think the female member on the pod would actually be trying to protect women in sports at the least. Also, the main guy has anger and resentment issues.
Title says it all. No frill, honest, genuine cycling chatter. No filters, all topics on the table. Perfect for the everyday cycling hero.
Whether it’s industry news, bike tech, wheel tech, cycling news, local Chicago scene stuff; this podcast is always a great listen.
For bike nerds this is awesome. Like that convo you have on the long ride with your riding friends when the pace isn’t facemelting and the convo turns to the sport. Funny, informative, and produced at the shop of one of the best wheel builders in the states.

A Midwest-focused cycling show that blends shop-floor banter with race previews, gear chatter, and event coverage. Episodes commonly tackle race formats, gear setups, coaching approaches (including AI vs. human coaching), and local scene dynamics in Illinois and surrounding areas, often weaving in hands-on tech talk, race strategy, and behind-the-scenes perspectives from promoters and riders. Notable strengths include candid, no-nonsense discussions, a strong emphasis on community and shop culture, and frequent guest appearances from racers, organizers, and coaches that add practical, field-level insights for riders planning Midwest events or local shop activities.
