The Paceline is a cycling podcast aimed at roadies, mountain bikers, commuters, cyclocross enthusiasts, those who grind gravel—indeed anyone who claims cycling for their own. The bicycle is more than a thing, it’s an issue. The Paceline also discusses the bike’s place in society. The hosts love bike gear so expect some banter about what works and what does not on the road and trail. The podcast on two wheels. No training wheels needed. The Paceline is hosted Patrick Brady and John Lewis, and is a production by The Cycling Independent.

Patrick and Lori return to the subject of community, this time, taking a look at what it means to give back to your community. Our opening image is of a whale tail ramp, which Lori discusses in the show.
This week Lori and Patrick welcome Rahsaan Bahati to the show. Best known as a former National Criterium Champion and pro cyclist, Bahati formed the Bahati Foundation 15 years ago to engage youth through cycling, music and other outreach programs.
This week Lori and Patrick welcome special guest Adam Potter, founder and owner of Planetary Cycles in Houston, Texas. Planetary Cycles has been around for 32 years and has marked a number of changes in the industry and in their own evolution as a bike shop.
This week Patrick and Lori talk head injuries. Patrick fell—off the bike—and was surprised to discover the symptoms of a lingering head injury weeks later. They talk falls, heads and, most importantly, the signs to look for and the ingredients of a proper recovery.
This week Lori and Patrick discuss on-the-bike technology and what they use. Patrick takes a little tour of past devices he lived by and lends a perspective on what a great time in history it is to be a cyclist.
It's fall and for some riders that means a time to back off the miles, recover some and begin the slow process of getting ready for the next season. Patrick draws Lori out about what fall riding used to be for her and how that has changed.
We're a day late because spam filters can really slow things down. This week, Patrick and Lori welcome Drew Medlock, the CEO of Allied Cycle Works in Bentonville, Arkansas. The international nature of the bike business has been thrown into turmoil by government tariffs and we wanted to talk to Drew as Allied has experience manufacturing both in Arkansas and overseas. He lays out the rationale for their business model.
With the news that Customs and Border Patrol is seizing bikes entering the U.S. made at Giant Bicycles' Taiwan factory, Patrick and Lori discuss the situation, the ramifications, who is affected and plenty more. It's a conversation that skips easy answers and delves into the nuance and reality of manufacturing in today's worldwide economy.
This week Patrick and Lori examine how they've used bike rides to help make decisions. Both big and small, the bike has figured as a way to figure things out.
We could probably call this the full-disclosure show with all the revelations by our hosts this week. Patrick discusses his recent trip to Idaho for lift-served mountain biking at ski resorts.
This week we run the rest of Lori's interviews from the MADE Show. In this episode we feature interviews with Aaron Barchek of Mosaic Cycles, Bud Reeder at Moots, Dave Lieberman of Liebo Cycles, Dave Thomas of Industry Nine, Josh Ross at Velo and Jason Losey of Challenge Tires.
Cohost Lori Barrett is back from a trip to Portland for the MADE show where she interviewed a number of people. In fact, she interviewed so many people and had so many interesting conversations that this is part one of a two-parter. We include interviews with Sean Walling of White Industries, builder Mike DeSalvo and Jeff Skelley, the president of Ortlieb USA, and more.
This week Patrick and Lori consider helmet use, particularly when running errands or commuting. Both admit that their views—and behavior—have evolved over the years.
Summer isn't over yet, which means there is still time for a getaway, even for people with school-age kids. This week Patrick and Lori talk vacations and how they define them, as well as to what degree a bike must be included in order for the trip to count as a vacation.
