Today's guest is Gabe Multer, the founder of Carbs Fuel, a company dedicated to enhancing endurance nutrition for cyclists. In this episode, we dive into his journey of launching a business in the cycling world—what sparked the idea, the hurdles of growing a nutrition brand, and the science behind optimal fueling for performance. Entrepreneurship is a road full of uncertainty, and Gabe’s experience sheds light on the mindset, resilience, and creativity needed to turn a vision into reality.WHOOPYour health underpins EVERYTHING you do in life, and WHOOP helps you understand and proactively improve it through 24/7 monitoring.  Go to⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠join.whoop.com/Roadman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to get a free month’s WHOOP membership on me!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ROUVY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ROUVY replicates terrain, gradients, and resistance, giving you the most authentic indoor cycling exper

For decades, 175mm cranks were the go-to choice in the pro peloton. But now, from Tour de France champions to elite gravel racers, the shift to 165mm is in full swing. To understand the science behind this trend, we sat down with Phil Burt—renowned physiotherapist for Team Sky, Ineos, and British Cycling. He’s the expert who helped guide Sir Bradley Wiggins to Olympic gold, and today, he’s here to explain why shorter cranks aren’t just for the pros anymore. But making the switch isn’t as simple as swapping crank arms. Phil breaks down the three essential bike fit adjustments you need to get right—because without them, you could be sacrificing speed, comfort, and efficiency.

In this week’s Rider Support, we tackle a critical issue that’s been bubbling under the surface for too long—the decline of road racing in Ireland. With legendary events disappearing and Cycling Ireland seemingly asleep at the wheel, we’re asking the tough questions: Where is the funding going? Why isn’t the governing body stepping in? And at what point do we demand real leadership to save Irish racing? Beyond that, we dig into the cycling trends from 2024 that need to die—from folding gravel bikes to overpriced ‘eco-friendly’ marketing gimmicks. We also settle the age-old debate: Are aero wheels or lightweight wheels the better upgrade? Plus, we dive into hot topics like:✅ The fallout from the UCI President’s failure to address rider safety at the World Championships✅ Should you take your dog on MTB trails?✅ The truth about the super tuck—dangerous or just another silly UCI rule?✅ Is training indoors actually better for performance? And stay tuned until the end, where Anthony breaks down normalized power vs.

In this episode Anthony and Sarah chat about their upcoming year and partnership with the L'Étape by Tour de France global race series.
