THE TORQUE SHOW RHYS HOWELL

It's been three years since we recorded 'The State of Racing', so we decided it was time the Coalition Alpha team got together to see what has changed (and what hasn't). We discuss racing on Zwift, elite racing and the Zwift Grand Prix, MyWhoosh, and the UCI World Championships. Not to mention, we finish off the episode with some predictions! Which is easier said than done.

Welcome back to another episode of the Torque Show podcast. This week we are talking to legendary Welsh rocker Peredur ap Gwynedd. Peredur is a man of many talents – he not only plays guitar in Drum n Bass band Pendulum, but is also a TV presenter covering professional cycling for Welsh language channel S4C.



We sat down to have a natter about the importance of Cymraeg (Welsh) and how language can be amplified by sport. So, whether you're a cycling enthusiast or a Welsh nationalist – there is something for everyone in this episode! :)

The Torque Show podcast is back for a new season and this time, we're doing things a little differently. I'll be talking to people who have either directly or indirectly had an impact on my life and career. In this episode, I am talking to Chas Bayfield - an ad veteran, who started his career at the agency HHCL. HHCL created some of the most iconic adverts of the 90s and wanted to hear first-hand from Chas what it was like to work in this environment and whether there is anything we can learn from the pre-social-media age of advertising.

I sat down with Lionel Vujasin, Alex West and Claudia Behring to dissect the current state of cycling eSports. Back in January, we recorded the first of these team chats and we wanted to look back on 6 months to see what had changed and what still needs to. We covered off all the relevant eRacing topics, what Zwift needs to do to improve and what's changed for us as a team.

I sat down to talk about the world of Eracing (physical Esports) with my team Canyon ZCC. This new sport is still in its infancy and with a long road still to travel, so we discussed where that road might lead and what needs to be done in order to get there.

I was joined by riders Lionel Vujasin, Alex West and Eva Buchholz. If you're interested in following the team then you can do on Instagram or our website canyonzcc.com

Mark and I look back on our journey after a week since we finished. Could we remember anything from this epic bikepacking adventure? There’s only one way to find out. This is a long one so make yourself a cup of tea and buckle up.
