The future of bike tech might be fast, but it looks awful! 🫣 Si & Dan take a look at the latest trends from a weekend of cobbles in Belgium, and discuss whether the UCI NEEDS to step in to save the day (and our eyes!).
Plus, we've got a mega Zwift competition ahead of the Zwift Academy final on Saturday, March 8, how one U.S. rider smashed the distance ridden in 24 hours, and how in Japan you can knit socks while cycling!
