The Roadman Cycling Podcast

People keep saying gravel is dead — not because it disappeared, but because it changed. In this video, Anthony sits down with pro gravel racer Nathan Haas for an honest conversation about how gravel racing became faster, more professional, and more competitive than ever, and how that evolution may have stripped away some of what made it special in the first place.
This isn’t about blame or nostalgia for the “good old days,” but about understanding what actually happened as gravel grew from a loose, community-driven scene into a serious racing discipline.

Free Solo is the documentary about climber Alex Honnold attempting to climb El Capitan — a 3,000-foot rock wall — with no rope.
I watched it last night and it did that thing great films do: you don’t just enjoy it, you start auditing your own life. Not dramatically — just noticing I was still tense afterwards, like my body was holding onto the consequences. Because it’s not really a film about climbing. It’s about consequence — and the choice to move forward when there’s no second chance.
As cyclists, that lands close. We obsess over control in tiny details, yet accept familiar risks without thinking. This episode is about getting honest: separating performance risk from consequence risk, spotting the “uncertainty stack,” and making smarter decisions before luck runs out.

How Do The Pros Actually Train – What EXACTLY is the Intensity, Frequency, Duration?  
Getting your winter training right is the difference between flying it in the January and burning out by the time the season kicks off. 
In this episode, I’m joined by Daryl Fitzgerald from Science to Sport to strip training back to the three levers that matter, and show you what the best riders do behind the scenes: how they build base, where intensity really belreally belongs, why Zone 1 is a secret weapon, and how to train hard without breaking.
