Speed Metal Cycling

A Colombian won the Tour de France. As promised, here's an episode. We didn't promise it would be good.

This is it, folks. Thanks for many years of fun!

We are finally back! SkullKrusher finally had his daughter and CD couldn't wait to make fun of him and tell him what a mistake that is. Meanwhile Klaus and Natalia make fun of both of them. We discuss the World Cup, of course, Formula 1, of course and CD reveals that he does not like fun. No wonder he likes cycling! We close with a little Tour de France and Giro Rosa chatter. 

Natalia, CD and the Krusher discuss the upcoming World Cup and how SK can watch the game while still being a "good father" to his soon-to-be-born baby daughter. Sk also tells some story about some Slovakian dude on the phone who doesn't care much for Peter Sagan. They go on to talk about cycling...eventually. They wrap up the Giro, talk about the Dauphiné and touch on the Tour de Suisse. There's a little talk of the Tour de France, the Giro Rosa and the Ovo Energy Women's Tour. Bradley Wiggins comes up in conversation at some point. You've been warned.

Klaus is in the house. So are Natalia and the Krusher. After 20 minutes of 100% useless garbage talk we discuss the Tour de Romandie, the Festival Elsy Jacobs and, of course, the Giro d'Italia. Also mentioned in the episode are Lando Calrissian, random teenagers, Alejandro Valverde, some guy "in Colombian cycling", Jose Been, Egan Bernal, Danny Glover and Peter Sagan.

Natalia and the Krusher discuss how boring other cycling podcasts are, cute piglets, the Tro-Bro Léon, the men's and women's Amstel Gold races and how to pronounce Jolien D'Hoore's name in Dutch. They close the episode with plenty of nonsense, making literal translations of Colombian sayings and dumb jokes. The last few minutes are worth their weight on gold! Exactly.

It was a long night of editing this stupid episode, so no description. You know what we talked about, Paris-Roubaix, Miguel Indurain GP, Tour of the Basque Country, blah, blah, blah. Valverde.

Natalia and SkullKrusher dive right into cycling talk. Well, they first talk about Julio Iglesias, Jose Jose, Jose Luis Perales, Jose Luis Rodriguez "El Puma," and any other ridiculous singers from the 70s that our mothers and aunts thought were so handsome and sexy. Eventually the get to the Tour of Flanders, men's and women's, and the Scheldeprijs. Predictions for Paris-Roubaix will be made on our Instagram @SpeedMetalCycl

A little bit of chatter about Italian drivers beating up Colombian pros, a little talk of names being changed by accident. Then, some Volta a Catalunya blah blah blah, a little bit of E3 Harelbeke and a little more about Gent - Wevelgem... We also mention the following names (in no particular order): Elia Viviani, Oliver Naesen, Katarzyna Niewiadoma, Alejandro Valverde, Wout Van Aert, Marcus Burghardt, Sep Vanmarcke, Mario Cipollini, Rupert Holmes,  Jolien D'Hoore, and many, many, many more.
