For a young black rider competing in the embers of the American Civil War, Major Taylor had the toughest of rides. He was abused by crowds, threatened with lynchings and beaten unconscious by other riders. Yet by the end of the 1890s America and the world of cycling had its first black champion, the man they called the Whirlwind. Here to tell the story is documentary maker Cyrille Vincent, whose upcoming film Whirlwind brings to life Major Taylor's incredible tale.Interview begins at 8m08sDid you know Cyclist is also stunning monthly magazine?

BCN started as grassroots cycling club with the aim of bringing together cyclists of colour, but in the five years since it has turned into a movement with members all over the globe.

In 2016, Emily Chappell was the first woman across the line in the Transcontinental Race, covering some 4000km and 50,000m of climbing in 13 days, 10 hours and 28 minutes. It was only the second time the former bike courier had entered, her first endeavour ending in hospital after she was forced to retire with chest pains. Since then all manner of big ride challenges have ensued, with Emily co-founding the Adventure Syndicate along the way, an organisation that encourages women to take on challenging rides. Last summer she once again rode ahead of the Tour de France as part of Le Loop, but upon returning to the UK after another mammoth few months riding around the globe, she found she was suffering from post-Covid, post-viral fatigue. Here she tells James and Anthony about her adventures, her relationship to the cycling and how she's bouncing back to fitness.Check out Adventure Syndicate here and Le Loop here This episode is supported by H.V.M.N, the creators of Ketone-IQ.We hear a lot about ketones in the pro peloton, but what are they?According to the experts H.V.M.N, ketones are a natural source of fuel for your body.
