A four-part series designed to help you improve your climbing skills. After listening to the series you won’t be able to challenge Chris Froome but at least you’ll get to the top of a hill before your mates. The four episodes look at mental approach, power-to-weight ratio, techniques and tips, and the role of weight in climbing (and a tasty discussion about to carb or not to carb). In studio are Dr Jeroen Swart, a sports physician, exercise physiologist and climbing fiend, and Bicycling SA editor Mike Finch.

In this series we bring three guinea pigs into our pedal stroke laboratory and ask them about their goals for the 2015 Cape Town Cycle Tour. We ask sports scientist and cycling coach Ben Capostagno to analyse their training plans and reveal if they are on the right track.
