๐ฅ Find the show and watch it on YouTube: GCN Show 639
Does the increasing popularity of gravel riding have anything to do with a growing fear of riding on roads? And if so, does that mean weโre admitting defeat to motorists? After a gravel ride over the weekend, Dan Lloyd got to thinking.
Plus, weโre talking about the Belgian cafรฉ giving away free รฉclairs, how Zwift are venturing outdoors, and a HUGE amount of hot new bike tech!

Do you think the rise of gravel has to do with the lack of traffic? And would you say it's a form of admitting defeat to motorists? ๐ตโโ๏ธ

Pro Cycling Is Faster. This is Why.
Pro cycling speeds have gotten faster and faster. But what role has tech played in that? One of the chief architects of that evolution has been the performance engineer Jean-Paul Ballard, and we sat down with him at the Immenstadt wind tunnel in Germany to discuss all the things that make riders faster and the things that don't. As well as the things that will make us faster in the future!ย
Heโs a fascinating person to speak to, so we hope you enjoy our conversation!

Pogaฤar and Van der Poel are getting ready to face-off at the Tour of Flanders next weekend! They're the hottest properties in menโs cycling right now, but are they ACTUALLY as good as weโre all making them out to be? Or does their legendary status have something to do with the epic "rivalry" they have against each other? Dan Lloyd & Si Richardson dive in!ย
Plus, new pedal designs, a book from a former GCN presenter, and why the UCI are reversing a measure they put into pro cycling to improve safety just a few years ago...
