This week, Si and Dan dive deep into Levi's GranFondo โ an event renowned for its stunning Californian scenery but equally infamous for its challenging route. We explore the unique dynamic of this event, which successfully blends a mass participation ride with a fiercely contested, unsupported race, truly taking cycling back to its basics! Is this the ultimate test?
Alongside our main talking point, we've got a packed show covering the latest cycling news, tech, and more! Including a new 24-hour indoor cycling record, Marianne Vos' incredible lifetime contract, concerns over potential US cycling tariffs, Gary Fisher's backing of a new eBike brand, the sleek new Colnago V5RS, and Zwift's adjustable cranks.
Plus, we announce competition winners, launch a new competition for a Redshift Cockpit Bundle, pay tribute to the legendary Barry Hoban, and bring you your favourite segments

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!

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!
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!
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...

Now a key member of AlpecinโDeceuninckโs management team, he is involved in decision-making processes that shape the form and season direction of the likes of Mathieu van der Poel and Jasper Philipsen.

While investigating bike theft for a video, we spoke with Bryan Hance, a U.S.-based cybersecurity expert and co-founder of Bike Index, a nonprofit dedicated to recovering stolen bikes. With years of experience, he's seen it allโbut his biggest case took nearly four years to unravel, exposing a single man behind a $2.1 million bike trafficking operation. ๐ณ Bryan gives us a peek into the case & reflects on what it means more generally for cycling.
