Episode 8: Chris Yeomans from Smithy Frameworks
This episode I travelled across the border from England into Wales to chat with Chris Yeomans, main torch wielder at Smithy Frame works.
Smithy Frames Works is a place to get a made to measure hand made bicycle. Chris contacted me to ask if he could build a gravel bike fit for all conditions that the UK could throw at it and asked for my input on the type of features it would need.
Obviously it took me a micro second to say Yes please! and then i thought talking to Chris about what a customer could expect to experience in the bike build process and about the history of Smithy Frame works would be a good subject for the podcast. Chris agreed and the link below will let you listen to what went on on the day I spent in Powys.

Episode 6: A chat with Hannah Dobson
Hannah Dobson, managing Editor of one of the UK (if not the worlds) premier cycling magazines and website, www.singletrackworld.com . We chat about how she came to be in charge of the content of an award winning bike publication, how she got into cycling, being female in the bike industry, the bike she'd ride if she couldn't ride any other (this may surprise you), her unusual riding clothing choices and how to attract more people to our favourite pastime.

Episode 2: What is the UK Gravel Collective Cycling Podcast for then?
In this, the very first episode of the UKgravelCO Cycling podcast find out why, who and what it's all about. Listen to me waffle on for 15 minutes and hopefully what you hear will make you want to listen to the next episode and so on.
I'm told 7 episodes is the minimum for a podcast to be a proper podcast, well this is number 1, you were here at the start, you are a pioneer!
