For this month’s Reviewing the News Episode, Mike and I start with a topic that hits close to home: we both know extremely fit people who have passed away recently while riding their bikes. So, today we talk about how it’s common for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease to go undiagnosed, especially in athletes, and what you can do, and should do, to protect yourself. Plus, we just had a fantastic, wet, and muddy weekend of racing in Les Gets, France, which gives us plenty to go on about, like the amazing Alran brothers, Gracy Hemstreet looking unbeatable, Ronan Dunne’s comeback, and road superstar Mathieu van der Poel getting back on the mountain bike for another crack at World Cup XCO, and more.

Gents – such a good listen on SO many levels and especially the first 25 mins. Real talk!! Signed up for the grimy handshake and look forward to those reads Mike. You are both excellent journo’s and a fun listen here. CAC – I had mine done 2 yrs back. Fortunately a ZERO score at the time, but need to get an update as it can change, I aint no spring chicken, and have a young un (as do you Simon) to think about being around for! It’s one measure that can help us ID something. You may want to think about a different Dr, Simon, no offense to who that is – BUT as we are learning the ol cholesterol score, lipids score etc – are not the best measures. Have a chat with Dr Ed locally as he advised me 2 years back and is on the path of wellness, not traditional medicine as much anymore.
