VN podcast, ep. 8: An inside look at Cannondale – Drapac team camp


Welcome to the VeloNews cycling podcast, where we discuss the latest trends, news, and controversies in the world of cycling.

This week the podcast hits the road. Caley Fretz has a dispatch from Spain, where he’s attending Cannondale – Drapac’s first team camp of the season, including a bit of breaking news from one of Cannondale’s top climbers regarding the … hour record.

Yes, really. Why does the hour record have to be flat? Cannondale’s Joe Dombrowski has a novel idea for an uphill version, measured in meters of elevation gained. Plus, Andrew Talansky tells tales of beers and Pierre Rolland discusses his Giro/Tour goals.

Then the band gets back together in Boulder and Fred Dreier, Spencer Powlison, and Fretz discuss a recent VeloNews feature on the wild Continental circuits and cycling’s globalization. From monkey feet to bus crashes, everything is on the table — sometimes quite literally.
