Strava Mind Games: Secret Training & Ride Envy | GCN Show Ep. 524

Strava. It’s where lots of cyclists love to post their rides but also a platform for pros and amateurs alike to play mind games. Not that long ago, Mathieu van der Poel was posting all his training data for the world to see. Now? Radio silence. Meanwhile, Annemiek van Vleuten is racking up the kms in Colombia, giving us serious ride envy! Si & Hank discuss this and more on the GCN Show.
