You’d think eating is easy. We’ve all been doing it longer than we can remember. But eating on the bike while pedaling hard enough to make people miss the couch isn’t easy. If it was, we wouldn’t be getting listeners asking about how best to execute so they don’t bonk. Bonking, after all, is a thing. But not our favorite thing. Selene addresses strategies to make sure you get everything down, keep it down and finish strong.
Patrick takes on a listener’s question about who and under what circumstances someone should order a custom bike. What should you expect to get out of a custom bike? Also, for those going to the North American Handmade Bicycle Show, what’s the best way to make use of your time there? 
And Patrick says you can race in rain and mud and with the right fender on your gravel bike you don’t have to look like you mud-wrestled a pig.
