Loving the podcast!

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!

Most brutally honest cycling podcast you’ll find

Title says it all. No frill, honest, genuine cycling chatter. No filters, all topics on the table. Perfect for the everyday cycling hero.

kmckis ,

Some good. Some bad.

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.
