In this episode I'm joined by Ultra Cyclist, coach and organiser of The Land Between, Rich Rothwell. We discuss what it's like running your own event, what it takes to be a great long distance cyclist, and more. Enjoy!

This week’s conversation is with Josh Ibbett- a long-time patron of the ultra-cycling and bikepacking scene.Josh takes us behind the scenes of his TCR experiences, sharing stories from the road, lessons learned, and plenty of insight from years spent racing at the sharp end of ultra-distance cycling.One of the most experienced racers on the scene, Josh has a huge amount of knowledge to share- from strategy and preparation to the realities of spending days on the bike.There’s a lot to take from this one. Enjoy!

This week I sat down with returning guest Adam Palin for a quick recap of our race at Dorset Divide, before moving on to a discussion around the physical, mental and financial cost of ultra cycling. This was a really interesting discussion to have and I hope you enjoy it!
