  9. A great way to pass the time and add a little motivation is to listen to one of the cycling podcasts that I’ve subscribed to. When I first started looking for podcasts on iTunes I came across quite a few dead productions so hopefully this list will help out a couple of people. Please add to the list their must be more good podcast with valuable info. Don't add the ones that just promote their training programs. Cycling 360 Podcast http://www.cycling360media.com/ Description: Aimed at those that cycle as a sport. Each week focuses on a specific subject such as bike fit, riding in heat, nutrition on the bike, long rides, maintenance and clothing. I’ve picked up a lot from this show that I may never have even thought about. They have tremendous experience and backgrounds. Semi-Pro Cycling Podcast http://semiprocycling.com Description: This is a great podcast series for cycling. Damien Ruse has a great positive attitude as he presents his research and cycling information in every podcast episode. He always presents a new angle on cycling that is very thought-provoking. He points out things about cycling that I would never have thought of myself, and then shows me ways to improve in that area. This is truly an amazingly entertaining and educational podcast that every cyclist should be subscribing to for their own good! I have downloaded every episode from the past and I look forward to every new episode. If you like to ride your bike as a serious and fun-loving hobby, like me, then you will love this podcasts!

Covering various topics from training to racing, nutrition to injuries with a healthy dose of motivation too.

  11. The fitness industry is a strong player in the wearables market, with everything from Recon Instruments’ Snow, for skiers and snowboarders, to the upcoming Recon Jet for cyclists.
