Two interviews this week: first up, Chris & Steve chat to Rishi Fox about her preparation and focus for the upcoming Transcontinental 5, an unsupported 4000km endurance ride from Belgium to Greece, alongside her training, anecdotes, confidence building, combined with her love of cycling adventures. You can support Rishi on her solo ride at gofundme.com and watch in real time on transcontinental.cc from 28 July 2017.

Second interview: Alan Todd from Freestyle Cyclists about his long involvement with Australia's mandatory helmet legislation (MHL), "Australian Exceptionalism", conflict with bureaucracy, police and media criticism about the upcoming Helmet Optional ride on Saturday 18 March 2017. Alan states the case that focussing on MHL distracts from more important cycling safety issues.
