Ride along with Rider-Up co-host John Carlin on his evening road bike ride between the 6 pm and 11 pm newscasts. Great dinner break right? This is an edited stream of consciousness as John cruises through downtown Roanoke to the Roanoke River Greenway. Along the way, he evaluates his new Roval C-38 wheels, chokes down a few gnats along the river, races a bat for a hundred yards, and talks about how these rides enhance the viewer experience for the 11 pm news on WSLS-10!
We've edited out all the slower parts, (as if that's possible!) to give you the highlights of John's ride and his thoughts on an evening in April 2023.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
