From Pro Cyclist to Philosopher: The Intersection of Cycling & Philosophy with James Hibbard

In this episode of the Roadman Cycling Podcast, former pro cyclist and philosopher James Hibbard joins us to discuss the fascinating intersection of cycling and philosophy. From his experiences competing as a track sprinter to his journey towards integrating mindfulness practices into his rides, James offers a unique perspective on the many ways in which cycling can shed new light on age-old questions of selfhood, meaning, and purpose. We explore the concept of "flow" and how it can enhance the cycling experience, discuss the connection between physical activity and mental well-being, and delve into the ethical considerations of cycling. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that will inspire you to see cycling in a whole new light. You can check out Jame's book here Today's show sponsor is Wattbike.
