Cycling 101: Gear, Mechanics, Training, and Nutrition
Summary: <br> <br> <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/thought-for-food-podcast/id1076175941?mt=2"></a><a href="https://playmusic.app.goo.gl/?ibi=com.google.PlayMusic&isi=691797987&ius=googleplaymusic&link=https://play.google.com/music/m/Idca2ne5cfai4zaehr7hqgo4lyi?t%3DThought_For_Food_Podcast%26pcampaignid%3DMKT-na-all-co-pr-mu-pod-16" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a>I have been riding road bikes for half of my time on this planet. It's so deeply intertwined with my day to day life that it's almost second nature to me. It has brought so many amazing experiences and relationships from riding the highest paved road in North America to riding with my friends Gruff and Ian in the Alps, and I want you to experience that sensation in your own life. We recently did a podcast about exercise and redefining our relationship to it, and discussed how we want to go more in depth on specific sports that we have expertise with. From the gear to nutrition, I felt like it would be helpful for everyone interested in the sport of cycling to hear more specifics on how to do it - a sort of Cycling 101 class. For beginners and experts alike, there's a ton of great information in here, as well as a special surprise from Vegan Athletic Apparel ;). I covered a lot, and hope it's helpful! If I missed anything you were hoping I'd cover, please shoot me an email to tfflifestyle@gmail.com, and be sure to hop in the Thought For Food Club Facebook group to continue the conversation.<br> <br> Aaron is taking the rest of November off of the podcast to recharge, disconnect, and focus on his family, so the podcast will be much more boring. He'll be back though!<br> <br> Interested in the oh-so sexy and functionally high-quality Vegan Athletic Apparel?
