This week Eric and Paula are living their summer dreams in France as Paula gets ready to race the T100 French Riviera. We talk through the race course, the age group race, and what life has been like in Fréjus, before moving on to listener-submitted triathlon questions. Topics this week include:

  • Smack talk in triathlon
  • Picking a TT helmet without wind tunnel access
  • How far up the road to look in a TT position
  • Eric racing in hot conditions with a history of heat stroke
  • The most gratifying part of being a professional athlete
  • When upgrading to carbon wheels is worth it
  • How often we have protein shakes
  • Protecting your bike from sweat and corrosion on the trainer
  • Training in the heat but racing in the cold
