What the Tour of Britain can tell us about the upcoming Worlds

The five-day Tour of Britain wrapped up on Sunday, and of the five stages, four were won by one ever-dominant rider. The one stage where another shone was a masterclass in bike racing tactics, but even though two riders topped the race, others proved they are coming into form just in time for the World Championships in Montreal in a few weeks.

Fashion week, but new bikes

This week, Caley Fretz returns to Geek Warning alongside Jack Duncan and Dave Rome. It’s been a week full of big new bike launches (all of which Escape Collective attended) and there has been some equally big industry news. The geeks discuss new bikes from Scott, Factor, and Enve, and how each finds (or doesn't) a balance between performance and enjoyment. Plus, there’s a shift in product from WTB, some somewhat sad news out of an Australian business, and we speculate over why Specialized’s founder has returned to the helm. As usual, members of Escape Collective have access to the exclusive member-only feeds of the podcast, and in this we answer a number of technical questions in the Ask a Wrench segment.Happy geeking! Time stamps: 00:02:00 - New bikes, new bikes everywhere 00:03:15 - Talking two different approaches to gravel with the Scott Addict Gravel and Factor Elara 00:16:30 - Adding the new Enve Melee to the conversation 00:20:00 - Feelings or performance.

In person and pondering new Dura-Ace

This week sees a big first for the Geek Warning podcast as the entirety of Escape Collective’s tech crew meet up in person over in Takayama, Japan. With that, we recorded live in front of a select group of Escape members! It’s certainly been a huge week on the tech front for our entire tech team to be away riding bikes at the annual Member Summit. Not only is the Vuelta a España in its first week (where new Dura-Ace prototypes were seen), we also had the last Mountain Bike World Cup round prior to the World Championships. And if that wasn’t enough, MADE was held over in Portland, Oregon, the past weekend. Given the special circumstances, our usual member-only ‘Ask a Wrench’ segment was replaced with an ‘Ask us anything’ from the live audience. Be sure to listen on the member-only feed for the full episode. So with that, join the tech crew of Alex Hunt, Jack Duncan, Ronan Mc Laughlin, and Dave Rome to hear about the week in tech. And yes, Suvi Loponen was there, but sadly couldn’t jump on the recording. Time stamps: 00:03:30 - New Dura-Ace R9300 breaks cover 00:23:00 - Leadville wasn’t the expected 32er domination, and that doesn’t matter 00:33:05 - Fox is seemingly returning to electronic suspension for cross-country 00:35:00 - Abbey Bike Tools’ new budget disc brake mount facer isn’t quite it 00:40:30 - Going into the member-only section with a live audience 00:42:00 - Ask us Anything! 00:44:00 - Are carbon spokes a fad? 00:50:00 - Silca’s entry to tires 00:53:00 - Can grease be too thick? 00:55:00 - Is there any further tech that road should expect from MTB? 01:03:30 - How are we addressing the spectrum of gravel?

One epic climb, five months to prepare: Abby's Ventoux Challenge

As so many of these side quests do, this particular adventure started with an offhand remark on the Wheel Talk Podcast… This week we dive into Abby's self-inflicted five-month journey to beat a past version of herself up Mont Ventoux. Today, she sits down with the coaching duo who helped her through it - Lizzie and Phil Deignan. We will be back next week with more from the world of women's professional cycling. A written story is coming to Escape Collective later this week.

The Tour of Britain was a true battle for the North

Forget the battle of Winterfell, the Tour of Britain was the true battle for the North. This week, the team dive into what was an EPIC edition of the Tour of Britain. The roads were punishing, and the weather was unforgiving. Two forces eventually fought it out for victory on the streets of Glasgow. Gracie, Matt, and Georgie also look to Spain as FDJ-Suez continue to prove their dominance, plus HoweGood roasts the UCI in a minute of madness, and Gracie describes how she gave Georgie a baptism of fire on the MTB.
