About this episode

The episode discusses extreme summer weather, bikepacking adventures, and the joys of outdoor exploration.

Britain's in the middle of another heatwave, but Benny P's got a good store of ice to keep us all cool. We chat about what these increasingly extreme summers might mean for the future, how the sunshine transforms life behind the Trailside Coffee van, and Ben's recent trip to Norway simply to watch some world-class athletics. Tom's turning awkward coach journeys into mini-adventures, camping through storms in the Lake District, and why sometimes the best training plan is simply to head outside and see where the road takes you. It's a conversation about coffee, cycling, travel, endurance, curiosity and finding adventure in the everyday - with plenty of questionable life advice thrown in for good measure.
