    12. 🏔️🚲 Elevation Revelation: Nick Glover 🇮🇲 on Triple Everesting, mindset, the peloton of sherpas and processing it all

    Today’s episode features a member of a very elite club with member numbers totalling around 50 worldwide at the time of recording. This club is the Triple Everest Hall of Fame. Not just any old member of this club, Dubai-based Nick Glover is a unique one as he is also believed to be the first type one diabetic to ever Triple Everest, and the first in the UAE to do so. Nick is exceptional in every sense of the word. He is also a two time cancer survivor and someone who’s not just satisfied with a personal accomplishment, but wants to take others along with him for the ride. 
    This episode is a rich episode, full of learnings and inspiration. In my chat with Nick Glover, we go into: 
    ⚽ The role of sport in Nick’s childhood 
    ⚕️His type-one diabetes diagnosis 
    🚴‍♂️ Overcoming cancer twice and becoming a cyclist 
    🏃‍♂️ His entry into endurance sports including Ultraman 
    🏔️ From single to triple everesting 
    🫂 The experience… and the sherpas

    11.1 🐘 🚲 The Story of VIA Race with organizers Ingeborg Oie and Ian To - Part 1️⃣ of ✌️

    We know that bikepacking and ultra-cycling is about testing your limits - physical and mental, it's about adventure, camaraderie. It is about eating. It’s also about storytelling and this is the story of one of the newest self-supported ultra-cycling races on the calendar, VIA Race.
    Ingeborg Oie and Ian To, the team behind this upcoming race, agreed to speak with me and Niel Copeland about the first Chapter of this 4000km adventure which sets off from Southern Spain on 20 July, 2024.  This is an ultra-cycling race for ultra-cyclists, by ultra-cyclists and there was so much to cover that we’ve split the episode into two parts. 
    Part 1 covers the origins of the race, Ian and Ingeborg’s own cycling journeys & world record, the route, the thinking behind various race elements, the importance of story-telling, the dotwatching experience, safety, different race categories, support for new riders and how the race aims to welcome a more diverse line-up of cyclists. We also discuss the role of the race partners (linked below). 
    Part 2 will be live by the 27th of March and will discuss teh evolution of ultra-cycling, the role of technology and also the importance of transparency when it comes to a fair & safe adventure.  In addition to Niel sharing his prep, Part 2 will feature the voices of some of those participating.

    10. RAR 🇷🇼 Jenny Tough’s Race Around Rwanda

    The Race Around Rwanda is a 1000km self-supported cycling race that takes place annually every February in Rwanda. This year, The Just Bikes Podcast was on the ground and aimed to give you a daily update of what was happening, the highs, lows, weather and emotions and all the people questioning, ‘can that really be considered gravel?’
    Due to tech problems and a lack of wifi for the remainder of the race, we had to bank our stories but we’re back today with just some of the rest of the best stories at the finish line of the race. 
    In today’s episode you’ll hear from Jenny Tough, an accomplished endurance athlete and author. For more info on Jenny:
