About this episode
We catch up after a long gap, from Drummond launching a new appointment-only service studio in Bricktown to traveling nonstop with teams and races. Ryan tells us what racing and supporting a rider in Romania really feels like, then we swing through GP New York chaos, Nationals motivation, the Oz Stage Race, and the moment I finally cave and buy an e-bike.
• Drummond Performance Studio setup, services, and why bike fits matter
• Life on the road as a mechanic and sometimes race director
• Romania UCI stage race details, cobbles, TTs, and mountain finishes
• Real pro peloton speed, watts, crosswinds, and the mental toll
• Feeding from the car, race radio, and how the caravan avoids disaster
• GP New York start on the George Washington Bridge and scary traffic moments
• Cyclocross planning, UCI points, call-ups, and building a bigger engine
• Mountain Bike Nationals in Roanoke, why Oklahoma riders should show up
• Oz Stage Race logistics, rain, flats, and why it’s a great first stage race
• E-bike handling realities, corner timing, weight, and why it’s so fun
• Tour dominance debate and what makes riders likable
