We cover all things cycling, training, fitness, nutrition, racing, and sports tech through our countless years of cycling. In short, we have seen some stuff, so we draw off our experiences as masters cyclists who have been training and racing for the better part of our adult lives. Our typical podcasts include a weekly recap of our training and racing (The Backpedal), recent cycling news (The Leadout), and a new topic for each week.

    Dialed Podcast 384 - Is American Cycling Back? | Why Bike Racing Is Fading | The 32-Inch Wheel Debate.

    Send us a message! The guys are back after a month off, and they came loaded. Lance breaks down nine races in four weeks, including a Belgian Waffle Ride California podium that put him in the running for the series. Ian returns from five hard days riding in Mallorca, and the racing talk only heats up from there. The big one: Unbound. Keegan Swenson handed his rear wheel to a teammate and rebuilt a freehub in the gravel to save his race, while the Specialized squad swept the podium. That leads into the question hanging over the sport. Is bike racing actually dying? Promoter fees, calendar fatigue, and shrinking fields paint a tough picture, but there is a path forward. Plus a SRAM surprise that left Jake speechless, the science behind leg cramps, the rise of gravel team tactics, and whether 32-inch wheels are the future or a fad nobody asked for. Grab a coffee and settle in. This one runs long, and it earns it. Support the show

    Dialed Podcast 383 - PIR is Back, Paris-Roubaix Mayhem Recap, and We Argue About Race Prices

    Send us a message! PIR is back, Banana Belt brought the bunch sprint, Mud Slinger brought the mud (and a couple of crashes), and a look back at how Paris-Roubaix delivered one of the most exciting races in years. The crew breaks down a wild week of racing, including Ian's lap-counting mishap that turned hero into zero in about 100 meters, Lance's road race tactics, and Wout van Aert finally getting his Roubaix win. Then the conversation turns to the real economics of putting on a bike race: what it actually costs, why entry fees keep climbing, and whether grassroots events should chase a premium experience or stay no-frills. Ian shares why he's leaning toward passing Barton Park on after this year, and Matt makes the case for raising prices. Plus: cycling bucket lists, the Lifetime Grand Prix at Sea Otter (and a huge ride from Dialed's own Kylie Hanel!). Support the show

    Dialed Podcast 382 - Root Canals, Paris-Roubaix Predictions, and AI Coming for Ian's Job

    Send us a message! The guys are back after a short break with plenty to unpack. Matt takes the family to DC for spring break and walks them into the ground. Lance survives the week from hell after a root canal goes sideways (seven days of Strava zeros, zero sleep, maximum misery). Ian is quietly cooking up race fitness for Barton Park despite some nagging knee pain. Then it is classics season. Pogačar just took Flanders for the third time and the guys break down who wins Paris-Roubaix on Sunday. Van der Poel going for four in a row? Pogačar going for history? Mathieu the safe money? Everyone locks in a pick. Hot Seat gets spicy. Do shallow climbing rims have any place on a modern road bike when the pros are racing mountain stages on 60mm deep sections? Then the guys dig into the new 500-gram airbag vest that is being pitched for the pro peloton. Safety innovation or another thing waiting to malfunction at 40 mph? Big question of the week: are Pogačar, Van der Poel, Van Aert, and Remco really that much better than every generation before them, or does it just look that way? The guys get into genetics, talent scouting, Zwift racing as a recruiting pipeline, and why the best cyclists in the world are probably playing soccer. Plus: a deep dive on AI in cycling. Coach Kat, LLM's for race nutrition plans, Strava's famously useless AI summaries, and whether Ian is going to be replaced by a chatbot. Ian is promoting his Barton Park Road Race on May 9th.

    Dialed Podcast 381 - Digging into the state of local bike racing, team culture, and what it takes to it all alive

    Send us a message! The crew is back and fully disheveled. Jake, Lance, Ian, and Matt kick things off with backpedals that cover Lance's last-minute solo van trip to El Tour de Scottsdale (3,000 riders, great legs, followed immediately by an emergency root canal), Ian's Michael Myers Memorial Time Trial recap and lessons learned. Then the classics talk heats up. Milan-San Remo goes to Pogacar by inches over Vanderpoel. Strade Bianche delivers MVP with jaw-dropping numbers (446 watts normalized power for the final 90 minutes of a five-hour race). Flanders and Roubaix are on deck. The crew also breaks down Vingegaard's Giro d'Italia setup and what it could mean for his Tour de France. A listener from Portland asks about moving up to Cat 3 on the road. The crew gives a real-world answer covering safety, upgrade rules, and why Cat 3 might actually be the sweet spot for most amateur racers. The back half gets honest and personal. Jake, Lance, and Ian dig into the state of local bike racing, team culture, what it takes to keep amateur cycling alive, and why DCT's 10-year anniversary in 2026 is going to be something sweet.  Support the show

    Send us a message! Lance just returned from five weeks in Arizona: racing, riding Mount Lemmon, getting pulled from a crit (it happens), surviving a skate park shortcut at the start of a gravel race, and somehow dragging Ian down with him.
