Paceline Podcast 223

Talk
By Padraig and Patria 4
It's something special to ride in the first snow feeling the flakes on your face, by definition it's not too cold, and your tires float on the fresh snow that doesn't yet have ice under it. Bostonians anxiously await the official #rscfirstsnow ride yet to come!

Despite a broken rib, Patrick has been managing to get out for rides and has begun exploring roads he’s unfamiliar with.

Patria takes the end of the season to look at goal setting and how to summon motivation if it may be flagging due to awful weather or too many turkey sandwiches.

The Paceline is hosted by Patrick Brady and Patria Vandermark.

Patria is the co-owner and manager of two Boston-area bike shops, Ride Studio and Ride Headquarters. The Colorado native raced at an elite level before chucking it all to go to the land of her forebears. She moved to Italy, learned the language and then began leading bike tours for American visitors. At CU Boulder she earned a degree in mechanical engineering; she says working on bikes is both more fulfilling and more fun.

Patrick is the publisher of The Cycling Independent.

    In this edition you mention touring. I would love to see a column on touring. Both paved and gravel. I would also like to see “The Pull” brought back. With interviews of tour leaders, event organizers, and Steve Potts.

    Hi Rich,

    Thanks for your suggestion! There is a vast amount of information we can offer where it comes to touring. What aspects in particular would you like us to address? Touring is incredibly fun to talk about, prepare for, and to execute on — both gravel and paved. Thank you!

      Thanks for the reply Patrick. Since I will be completely new to touring. Getting ready to tour and what to expect on the road. What is absolutely necessary and what should I leave home.

      Hi Rich,

      This is Patria replying to you. Where are you going to be riding to/from? Thanks for letting us know what you’d like to learn about touring, this is great to know. Really cool you’re going to be touring for the first time. You’re likely to be in a lot of good company as quite a few people are thinking this is the time to be touring with the pandemic raging. When are you starting your ride? Want to be sure to get you content before you need to be applying it in the real world!
