The Race Ride Seek Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode we speak to Curve Cycling’s Expedition Specialist, Gus Burrell live from Salta, Argentina. It was one week after Gus successfully led the second ever Curve expedition, this time through the remarkably diverse country in the northwestern pocket of Argentina.

Join us to hear about the program of bucket list adventures Gus has crafted around the world. Gus is the right man for the job having lived on his bike while travelling around the world in 2019. You’ll also hear some stories from the road, both from our recent trips and Gus’s adventures, and get an understanding of the sort of experience we’re trying to craft for our intrepid expeditioners. Don’t be surprised if a giraffe tries to seal your drink or you find yourself having a roadside picnic high in the Andes.

In this podcast Jesse Carlsson speaks to three incredible ultra-endurance athletes from the Curve Squad in the lead up to the first edition of the Rhino Run, a new 2,750 km solo, unsupported bikepacking race from Plettenberg Bay, South Africa to Windhoek, Namibia. The race also supports the Masaka Cycling Club (www.masakacyclingclub.com) and its inspiring work to uncover and nurture raw cycling talent in Uganda.

Join Abdullah Zeinab, Sarah Hammond and Stephen Lane as they each share their thoughts one week out from lining up against possibly the strongest start list in ultra-endurance cycling history. They were in the middle of packing their bikes at Curve HQ in Melbourne and making final pack-list checks immediately before heading to the airport. We discuss their preparation, bike selection, thoughts on how the race will pan out with all the hitters involved, the mental rollercoaster of long distance cycling, the stomach-stretching properties of broccoli and much, much more including Jesse's extreme overuse of the phrase "looking forward to seeing how it all to unfolds" (I counted at least 12 times).

Each of these talented athletes has a shot at wining the Rhino Run and we wish them all the best. We can't wait to see it all play out when the race begins on 21 October 2022. Check www.rhinorun.cc for all the details on how to follow the race.

We spoke to our very own Ryan Flinn just days before he starts the 6,800km solo, unsupported Trans Am Bike Race coast-to-coast across the US. He is still recovering from his Indy Pac ride, his hands barely work, but he has grand plans to complete what he’s calling the Triple Crown. Tune in to hear more about Rhino’s crazy adventure plans! It's a long one - an endurance race demands an ENDURANCE podcast

In the final episode of Series 1, we've responded to requests for people who wanted to know more about how Curve came to be. So we've gathered the 4 people involved and tried to give you bit of an insight. While we start off well, we soon understand why podcasts don't often have 4 people involved :) Thanks for listening, look forward to bringing you more.
