#24 Dan Bigham | Worlds Mixed TTT 🥉 | World Record Attempt ⏱

“You shouldn’t just force riders to do something; you should allow them to have their own ideas, thoughts and options to control their own destiny” - Dan Bigham

One of our most controversial guests yet is back for another round in the studio! We invite Dan Bigham into our campervan-turned-recording studio at the World Championships in Harrogate.

Fresh from his bronze medal win in the World’s Mixed Team Time Trial, Dan gives us an exclusive insight into the new Mixed TTT race, explaining what it is, time trial tactics and getting pied on the podium. We also get his thoughts on mixed gender events and the relationship between coaches and riders.

In the face of new UCI rules - which are set to prohibit Bigham’s Team Huub WattBike from racing in the Track World Cup - he reveals the team’s new goal; breaking a world record. With gruelling altitude training underway and a roster of new, promising riders joining the team, Huub WattBike will be putting its innovative methods, tech and equipment to the ultimate test in April 2020.

We’ll also be talking about old rivalries, online trolls and setting up some battles with Bigham. Stay tuned for more World Championships Podcasts!
