Not April Fools!

from Velo Chumps · host Eric Poli

Even if we recorded on April Fools Day, this episode was obviously published after. We talk about some of the annual April Fools products that cycling brands "release," and how those jokes reveal something about the industry. Before that though we talk a bit about racing, both our own races and the pros. Then we share some sad news about Paragon Machine Works and why that might impact Chumps, and then we finish with our first ever listener submitted factoid!
