Cyclocross Radio

Hello cyclocross friends! And welcome to another episode of TDDTIE, They Don't Do That In Europe. Bill, Scott and Mr. David Palan catch you up on the UCI C2 DCCX weekend as well as the Superprestige race in Boom and the Bern World Cup. 

It's a TDDTIE extravaganza with special guest Julie Herrmann. Julie is the promoter of the upcoming Cincy CX weekend and also a national-level race announcer. We talk OVCX, Cincy weekend, race announcing politics and breakdown the U.S. and Euro cyclocross action from the past weekend.

It may be the cyclocross pre-season (it's not), but it's never too early for TDDTIE crew to breakdown the weekend's races. We talk about Charm City, Ronse, and the American World Cups. 

Zach Schuster, editor of Cyclocross Magazine, and I find a semi-quiet corner of the Jingle Cross media room to talk about the US World Cups and the state of cyclocross overall. We both fought the urge just to interview each other and instead had a nice conversation that I'm certain you're going to enjoy.

For episode 121 of Crosshairs Radio, author and journalist Daniel De Visé visits the basement studio for a conversation about Greg LeMond and De Visé's new book The Comeback. It was great to talk to Dan and we covered a lot of ground from road cycling, today, to Greg's story, to how Dan and Phil used to be really good!

It's a road trip episode! Bill is joined by photographer and fellow content creator, Bruce Buckley, for a chat in the minivan as they drive home late Sunday night from Rochester Cyclocross. Bruce and Bill break down the weekend and let you know everything that happened at the first C1/C2 event of the year and what we can look forward to in weeks to come.

Tobin Ortenblad made a stop in DC for a few days between the opening weekend of racing in Roanoke, Virginia, and this weekend's races in Rochester, New York. With him in town, it would be wrong not to finally sit down for a chat. We talked about how he got into racing bikes, the hustle of running your own cycling program, and his plan for the year.

For Episode 118 of Crosshairs Radio the TDDTIE crew is excited! Why? Because it's here. Cyclocross is finally here. We talk about the UCI opener in Australia, the upcoming North American UCI opener in Roanoke, and so much more. Great to have everyone tuning back in and gearing up for the best cyclocross season yet.

It's August, which means it's officially "cross is coming" season. To kick things off the They Don't Do That in Europe crew get together for a surprisingly entertaining conversation about rule changes. From the banning of podium bikes to the definition of artificial obstacle, this one covers it all.

. For this week's Crosshairs Radio we chat with the original young gun, the boy wonder, an guaranteed hall of famer who may need a parent or guardian to gain admission to the hall of fame, Mathieu van der Poel. For the second half of the show, it's a conversation with Christopher Blevins, who is the current U23 CX National Champ and the 2017 U23 MTB National Champ. In 2018, Chris dipped his foot in the elite waters and ended up on the podium in third.

Special Wide Angle Podium correspondent, Dan Chabanov, is back to discuss the second and third rounds of the UCI cross-country and short track mountainbike World Cup that took place in Albstadt, Germany, and Nove Mesto, Czech Republic. 

With the quickest turnaround in Crosshairs Radio history, Drew Juiliano goes coast to coast for a follow-up episode to 111. From the basement in DC, Drew and Bill go into depth about Drew's time racing in Belgium and the Basque country. Drew also gives some advice to anyone who wants to go to Belgium for a cyclocross spectating vacation.

Bill catches up with journalist and cyclocross racer Andrew Juliano during Sea Otter to chat about racing cyclocross in Belgium. Scotty D also checks in to chat so that Bill has someone to talk at about Sea Otter.
