The Cycling is great in Virginia's Blue Ridge -- and in Episode 18 Dan, John and special guest, bike racer and fit guru Karen Talley Mead talk about the local events you can be a part of, while sharing some cycling adventures from across the country. Then we get down to business with the tough question of how many bikes you really need. Hint -- you're gonna need a bigger garage. Also Dan the mechanic riffs on people who don't oil their chain while John corners the bike shop pros with the question of why a natural flat pedal foot placement is so different from where we put our cleats when we click in. And how wide should your gravel tires be?
Dan says oil your chain with this stuff.

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.
