Cycling Together

For over 25 years, Kristin and Steve have been cycling together – keeping things rolling over roads and trails as they also navigated marriage, kids, and careers.

Now, we are inviting you to join the ride as we share our experiences, insight and advice for anyone who does, or wants to, ride a bike.

Cycling Together with Kristin & Steve is a production of Steve the Bike Guy and Sundin Marketing.

Episode 20 – Overrated But Essential Bike Skills

On our 20th episode of Cycling Together, Kristin and Steve, with help from members of the STBG Cycling Team, share some of the “underrated but essential” bike handling skills.

Inspired by two recent bicycle events, we discuss skills to benefit road and gravel riders, whether riding alone, with a friend or in a big group. On our list… taking your hands off your handlebars; walking your bike; starting (and stopping) with intention; drafting and pace lines; turns and pedal position as well as riding on dirt and other “light” mountain bike skills.

During our conversation we go on a bit of a tangent about ride etiquette (can we buy an “on your left.”) as well as discuss the new UCI rules for handlebar widths and why women riders are not happy with the new ruling.
