Welcome to a special on-the-road episode of PodCrash! Live en route to Wrexham (yep, they did it), PodCrash hosts Philip Hindes and Callum Skinner are joined by pro tour riders Baby Girl (Chris Lawless), Adam Blythe and Owain Doull on this 73k cycle.
The guys discuss feedback from Chris Lawless’ appearance on PodCrash (actual quote: “That guy should never be allowed to speak in public”) and the plan for the day over pies and pints at their first pub stop.
With the British National Road Championships held the day before, the guys discuss their disappointing race day experience. Although considered a premier event, they faced a number of challenges on the day, from the lack of coverage and signage being placed the wrong way (which saw one large group heading into the town and having to do a U-turn mid race), to traffic on the route. As one rider points out, it was “an absolute shambles”.
Find out their thoughts on the results and their solutions for the future of the British cycling scene. You’ll also discover more about team tactics, the points system and even some current conspiracy theories floating around British cycling. Hold onto your hats; it’s a controversial one.
Then, one massive vent out of the way, 73km cycled and 8 hours later, the athletes (minus Blythe) return for part two to share their highlights of the day. Crashes, wrong turns and non-existant bike shops; this one’s not to be missed.
