The Packfiller Cycling Podcast

What's more effective, content from YouTubers, or World Tour Professional teams? That and more on this episode of The Packfiller. 

We're here to sum it all up, judge you for what you post, and make some hopeful promises. 

The biggest cycling gift guide, motivation, and how to keep the cycling dream alive. 

Who the hell wants the USAC gig, what can I do to get through the winter, and what can I get myself for $500? (And so much more)

Who's going where for 2022, some perspective on what's important, and The Packfiller Gift Guide, Part 2 - Tokyo Gift. 

What does it take to go beyond a fad, and make a fixture? Also, your best bets for stocking stuffers for cyclists (such as yourself). 

Just in time to help out with all of those holiday issues. Special guest Chris Carmichael (yes, that one), the man that changed how we approach training, is here to help us all get to the next level. 

We all know it is true. Winter training has to begin. But... when, and how? Let's figure that out. 

Insight, fun, and a ton of knowledge are the words to describe our conversation with the one and only Calvin Jones of Park Tool. 

News and commentary, along with how to approach, let alone get through the indoor cycling season. We also need your input on what events to put together...

The Packfiller solves all of the world's problems, again. Well, if the problems are disc brakes, expensive bikes, and trying to enjoy a bike race every now and then. 

We're here to help. The 2021 season had definite ups and downs. How are we all going to make it through the winter/off season? 

In (and out) studio discussions on the 'best Roubaix' seen in a while, perspective on the FIRST Roubaix, and a final grade for the 2021 season. 

Just when you thought it was time to settle into pumpkin spice and cyclocross. The season has a few more proverbial kicks to the head. Get ready. Oh, and we also help you deal with one of the most amazing Worlds in a while. 

The Worlds preview of all previews. We pick em' you decide how brilliant we are. You can even take the credit if you follow our lead. Oh, and we break down the best "bike rooms" out there. 

Should we be transitioning? Is 'cross still coming? Are cyclists just elitist d-bags? All this and more...

Cycling is a release, it is entertainment, it is a passion. It is also a potentially REALLY stressful sport. How to maintain the balance, along with what you'd do with $1K to spend on cycling stuff!

You're welcome in advance. We reflect, consider, and predict all of cycling's best and worst innovations, along with their potential to make or break the sport. Get ready for the "old guy versus young guy" challenge of the year. #ProfessorPaul versus #Knightwing

Yep. Yet one more bit of bad news, but a good amount of laughs along the way in spite. 

Smoke, cancellations, and, well, everything Paul's had to deal with. Oh, but we find the silver lining. Promise.

Some announcements, predictions, and thoughts on how to truly be ready (or not) for race day. 

Race updates, the Olympic drama, the RETURN OF THE PACKFILLER CLASSIC, and keeping things in social perspective, if possible. 

Just like the title says. We have a LOT to get through, including your chance to ride fast in the name of The Packfiller (and a charity of your choosing, of course). 

Jackson and Pat recall a trip into hell. The 2021 Belgian Waffle Ride (San Diego) in all of it's beauty, torture, and emotion. 

You've heard the term "roughing it" right? Well, we are definitely roughing out this episode. From the Packfiller Mobile Studio (it is actually an RV), with a few glitches that came along the way, week 2 of The Tour, and the beauty of road tripping.
