Show 72 - Apparel Apparently
03/27/20 • 85 min
Stephen and Raya are back in podcasting towers (for most of the pod) with a special feature length show.
Recorded before the global pandemic shut down large elements of, well, the globe, Stephen and Raya talk flippantly about Coronavirus and how it might effect people like Raya who is immunocompromised (erk). Raya's ADHD, potty mouth, dyslexia also come into the fray. It's confessional time, clearly.
Also: cycling in the heat. The benefits, technique, and also - should you? No need to know how to approach this, we've done that for you.
Stephen's had another puncture which he couldn't fix. Cycling fail. What's wrong with the bloke?
And he's changed his system of Strava event naming to use cryptic crossword clues. Which he explains to a bemused and attempting-to-sound-interested Raya
And of course the velominati casts a judgy eye on the world of road cycling.
But our main topic today; we talk to the all-female team behind dhb's MODA range of clothes, who are rewriting the rule book on a very male dominated world. Making a cycling kit from scratch. inception, design, manufacturing, testing and marketing - it's all here.
And don't forget the super generous dhb discount code (25%!) mentioned in this pod. Along with what dhb stands for. We think. To be honest, we've left it too late to ask for sure now so we're just going to pretend we know anyway. The Cyclist Pod (c) Stephen Grant and Raya Hubbell sponsored by dhb www.cyclistpod.com

Previous Episode
Show 71 - Bike Fit but my gosh don't you know it
Stephen and Raya are back recording at the podcast's country retreat (Raya's house) with a suspiciously tailor-made podcast.
In that we are discussing that arguably essential, arguably immaterial step in the pursuit of cycling perfection; the bike fit. There are various systems out there that aim to get you perfectly sized up and sorted for your bicycle, and in this episode we talk to Ross from Proper Cycling about the Torke fit - while Stephen gets fitted for it. Expect a slight annoying turbo trainer hum in the background, natch.
On top of that, there's another rule of the Velominati analyzed / criticised / idolised.
And. Couples who train together... do WHAT together? Hmm? Raya, spill the beans.
Finally, medals. SHINY! Worthy trinket for your race/sportive endeavours, or just meaningless smug-faced boast-tat? We delve. And don't forget the super generous dhb discount code (25%!) hidden in this pod. Or the last one. We can't remember. There's a mission statement, we definitely know that much.

Next Episode
Show CV1 - Coronavirus 1 Cycling 0
Stephen and Raya are not sat across eachother (for reasons that can be guessed, but you're not quite right) and are recording their first ever podcast remotely.
In this special Coronavirus episode - part 1 of a series of 2, Raya and Stephen discuss how the virus has affected cycling, and how it will change the local, national and international cycling landscape. It's a mixture of silly, serious, funny, and gallows humour as the two try to put a brave face on how their lives have been changed; Raya can't go out to do her job, and Stephen doesn't have one. It's the most fun you can have from 2m away. The Cyclist Pod (c) Stephen Grant and Raya Hubbell sponsored by dhb www.cyclistpod.com
