Show 44 - Becoming a (Better) Cyclist

Raya and Stephen hit the reset button as they go over the 12
fundamental habits of cycling; a great introduction to those of
you who are starting out, and a reminder to those existing
cyclists of the bad habits they have to avoid. 


This leads to some fairly hilarious anecdotes as our duo recount
their failings in their early days of cycling. Worth a listen for
just the clip-in problems.


Tips and advice include where to get involved, how to go about
getting into it, where and who with to ride... changing gears,
changing tyres, and changing position... and joining clubs, and
not overdoing it.


Plus! A welcome return for the Strava segment (not literally), a
new kitbag category, and everyone's favourite - You Drive Like a
Dick. Beware, crap drivers, we're back onto you.


Plus, as ever, the Velominati presents us with a rule that riles
Raya to the point of explaining how she slammed a fellow cyclist
on social media. It's a bit sweary, but you've gotta love that
girl when she's angry.


Show 44 - it's a must listen for cyclists of all level! Though
the 'must' bit is sort of a marketing thing. They're not going to
literally come round and make sure you've done it. They've got
stuff to do, we're sure you have to also.


(and listen out for the bonus bit at the very end)
