Hi All,
718 Cyclery is a Rivendell dealer based out of Brooklyn, NY. They really have quite a presence in their city and now....a podcast! I don't know if I'm speaking to any fellow podcast junkies out there, but if you love bikes and you love stories about bikes and bike culture, I bet you'll love 718's podcast. Podcasts are free and easy to access. If you have an iPhone or iPad, just search for Bike Shop Radio on your purple podcast app, hit "subscribe" (again, this is FREE) and get listening.
Oh, and if you subscribe and fall headlong in love with podcasts, message me and I'll tell you all the best podcasts in existence and we'll both be junkies. But back to business; here's the website:

Enjoy!
Leah

And today, A1 Cyclery (another Rivendell dealer) posted their first episode of their new podcast ā€œThe Psychic Derailleur.ā€ It’s a movement!

Best,

A big podcast junkie here! Ā 

I think podcasts make up probably 90% of the media I 'consume' ever since said goodbye to cable. Ā There's no going back! Ā Overcast is the podcast app I use.

Bike Shop Radio has been subscribed to. Ā Thanks!

Ash, there is NO GOING BACK. You are so very right. What are your top 3?

I quit cable in 2012 and rarely miss it. I watch no tv and a movie maybe once a month. Maybe not even. As a result, I’m on track to make my 2018 52 books in one year New Year’s Resolution. Podcasts and books are where it’s at!

Glad I’m in such good company!

Thanks for the link, Leah.Ā  718 won a "Retailer Innovation" award at Interbike this year...looks like they're doing something(s) right.Ā  Will have to stop in next time we're up that way.

Hi, Leah!

Thanks for the information.Ā  I'm in the car a lot and downloaded and listed to episodes 1-4 all in the same day!Ā 

For anyone who is interested in listening, I found the first part of episode 3--how Joe got into the business and how architecture relates to bikes (he is a registered architect)-- interesting.Ā  I also loved episode 4 (and feared for the future of LBS everywhere), where he published the keynote from Interbike.

The most "fun-ist" thing for me after listening to these podcasts, though, is that I'll be in Brooklyn in about a month and I'm now planning on stopping by to visit, assuming NY traffic doesn't cause me to be late to my original appointment.

I could see RBW with on OTR type intro to their podcasts:
Tired of the every day 52 x 26 grind?...
Backpack getting you down?...
The clock on those 8-year old carbon forks closing in on you?...
We offer you... ESCAPE!!!!

I think someone already posted about it, but Grant was on the Home of the Brave podcast a while back.
