I am really excited to have John Croom on! As being the owner of the Coffee & Van Chats podcast he sure does have a lot on his plate.
He is an three time national champion on the track but also holds a national record. Off the track he sometimes does crits, time trial work, and gravel.
If you have never heard of him he came out in a few news articles about going from over weight to becoming a pro in cycling.
Make sure to go check him out and follow his podcast!
Mentioned info:
Colorado living, training with Olympians, Pan American Games, road racing, time trial training, opinions on gravel, Coffee & Van Chats, and more!
