Kicking things off, the duo discuss recent comments made by MyWhoosh’s director of esports and game operations, who said he believes the days of real-world bike racing could be numbered. They then move onto the strangest indoor cycling tech of all time, including bike treadmills to €14,000 indoor bikes made from glass and wood. Next up, George Scott is joined by Stephan Neusser, a sports scientist and coach who works for Rouvy, to discuss the fundamentals of indoor training and how to ensure you’re not burning out this winter.
