Autumn cycling attire and near hypothermia after a hill climb

Bob and Enzo have finally bought an old bike each, one from the 1980s and one with magic gear changes. Enzo quizzes Bob on his knowledge of bike brands and Bob races his tandem up a hill.

Bob and Enzo are back chatting about their love of cycling. Sounds like both could be about to buy new bikes, but it's not what you might think. They discuss things that might not be known about the miracle fabric that is Merino wool and Enzo tells Bob that he is about to go meet Napoleon Bonaparte!

Bob and Enzo return to talk all things bicycles. Enzo tells Bob how he swerved a recent cycle event. Bob wonders if a return to 26inch mountain bike wheels would be a good thing and the pals both have a set of clip on aero bars, which will turn them into TT champs. Probably.

In this latest episode of the Just Riding About podcast, Bob reveals all about a new bike purchase. Enzo is quizzed on his knowledge of bottle cages and the boys discuss the benefits, or not, of trying to look good on your bike.

The two pals talk cycling once more, though one of them is slightly bruised and battered after a tumble. Bob offers a couple of ideas for beating the cold and Enzo chips in with one sure fire way of keeping warm on your bike. Both are quite disillusioned with electronic groupsets and wonder what all the fuss is about.

Both Bob and Enzo have some impending cycle events but preparations aren't going quite to plan.  The pals also discuss the state of their tyres and the roads during this time of the year.

In this episode, Enzo laments the decline of rim brakes and Bob wonders if there is a need for specialist cycle cleaning tools, despite having a cupboard full!

The boys meet up one more time this year to discuss how they'd spend a £50 eBay voucher for Christmas.  They also reveal the contents of their cycling saddle bags with some quite surprising results.

The boys return and discuss what to wear on your bike for a changeable autumn day. Bob recounts his tandem hill climb event which almost ended in disaster and tells us about one piece of cycling equipment he just can't do without.

On the latest cycling pod, the two pals discuss the benefits of not going tubeless, as Enzo discovers, allegedly, a better way.  Bob is the proud owner of a new bike and has instantly become enamoured with it.
