The Domestique Hotseat Podcast - Nick Schultz

In this raw and revealing first episode of The Domestique Hotseat, Nick, fresh off the Giro d'Italia, joins Ethan and Joe to talk about: What life is truly like inside the professional peloton. Lessons and advice from his junior cyclist days in France. Why being a helper is a craft of its own. The goal of achieving top finish in the Giro d'Italia general classification with Derek Gee. Whether or not stage 21 'processions' are actually a myth, and more!

With no fluff, no media training, it's just a honest insight from one of the most respected and underrated riders in the peloton.
