I remember seeing Hayley on the podium at the commonwealth games coming third in the time trial and tenth in the road race back in 2018. Hayley has been a dominant force in the UK TT scene with multiple National Championship medals and also has won the National Hill Climb Championship in 2019. She knows a thing or two about what it takes to race at the highest level and offers some incredible tips to get into racing, whether that's on the road, TTs or on Zwift, where she races for Movistar's E-Team.

One of my favourite memories of Darren was at the National 24 hour TT in 2019 where he was the person who grabbed my bike at the end whilst I collapsed to the floor post race. Darren is one of the most accomplished ultra distance cyclists I know having tackled The TCR, TransAm Bike Race, Paris Brest Paris and London Edinburgh London to name a few. He is also someone who doesn't like to limit himself to one category and can be found racing in the Masters Crits in London. Darren is also the Co-Founder at Velomatch, a digital cycling marketplace which unbundles advising from selling. By disrupting the market in this way we offer more choice, better advice and greater convenience.

The first time I met Luke, he made me an incredible sandwich, featuring fantastic sourdough, cheese, apple and Outdoor Provisions' Almond, Date and Sea Salt Nut Butter. I still vouch for it being one of the best Sandwiches I have ever eaten.  Luke founded Outdoor Provisions with Christian 3 years back now, whilst out on a bike-packing trip and they have been slowly and steadily growing from their base in Manchester.  Between them they have also created the Second City Divide ride, a bike-packing route between Glasgow and Manchester.

I have been wanting to do a podcast with Nick for some time to talk about his past, as a runner potentially heading to the Olympics to represent The USA in the marathon distance, to his transition to shoe design and now cycling. Enjoy!  I've also set up a Patreon if you'd like to help support the channel for less than the price of a fancy London coffee and croissant: https://www.patreon.com/chrishallrides https://www.chrishallrides.com​​​​​​​ https://www.instagram.com/chrishallrides​ https://twitter.com/chrishallrides​​​​​​​ BUY SOME ZERO LEMON MERCH: https://www.zero-lemon.com/​​​​​​​ The following companies (that you'll see in my content) support me either financially or with free stuff, so huge thanks to these guys for helping me with the challenges I take on Attacus Cycling,  Cervélo, Lazer Helmets,  Shimano, Schwalbe Tires, Parcours Wheels, Aerocoach, Sungod Eyewear, Tailfin Cycling, Styrkr

I first met Christian back at Badlands where we just kept passing each other in the race. We had brief moments of conversation about anything and everything, then ended up finishing pretty close to each other and the conversation continued. Christian was in the process of testing the final products he, Leon and his team had been developing and testing for years prior to the race and Badlands became a true test ground for them. Spring forward, I'm incredibly pleased to share that Styrkr will be fuelling my challenges for 2022 and onwards. I've been testing the range for a while and really pleased with how it not only agrees with me but helps with my performance. I thought hell we should do a podcast about how Styrkr started and a bit of a breakdown of fuelling for your rides, challenges and races.  As part of that, Christian and Leon have kindly offered listeners of this podcast the opportunity to test their range! Simply head to https://styrkr.com/collections/products/products/test-pilot-kit and enter the discount code 'HALLSTESTKIT' to get the test pilot kit for free. If you want to add anything else, I'm a big fan of the GEL30 Nitro+ too!  I've also set up a Patreon if you'd like to help support the channel for less than the price of a fancy London coffee and croissant: https://www.patreon.com/chrishallrides https://www.chrishallrides.com​​​​​​​ https://www.instagram.com/chrishallrides​ https://twitter.com/chrishallrides​​​​​​​ BUY SOME ZERO LEMON MERCH: https://www.zero-lemon.com/​​​​​​​ The following companies (that you'll see in my content) support me either financially or with free stuff, so huge thanks to these guys for helping me with the challenges I take on Attacus Cycling,  Cervélo, Lazer Helmets,  Shimano, Schwalbe Tires, Parcours Wheels, Aerocoach, Sungod Eyewear, Tailfin Cycling, Styrkr
