In this podcast we speak to a guy who you wouldn't normally associate with off-road unsupported racing. His name is Patrick Boutellier, he is a Swiss watchmaker and lives high up in the luxury brands and corporate world. Not long after completing the 2020 Vic Divide, Adam Lana grabbed Patrick to talk about his amazing experience.

The previous podcast had us speaking to Lewis Ciddor about the Vic Divide and we wanted to acknowledge that it was since run and won by Lewis himself, he completed the course in a little over 44 hours, what an amazing effort! 42 riders started the ride with about 60% finishing it and a massive congrats to all that even attempted this challenging course.

Some raced it to win, some wanted to tour it, and others wanted the pure challenge of it... Patrick took on this challenge.

Series 3 Ep. 2 - Patrick Boutellier and the 2020 Victoria Divide.

In this episode we speak to Curve Cycling’s Expedition Specialist, Gus Burrell live from Salta, Argentina. It was one week after Gus successfully led the second ever Curve expedition, this time through the remarkably diverse country in the northwestern pocket of Argentina.



Join us to hear about the program of bucket list adventures Gus has crafted around the world. Gus is the right man for the job having lived on his bike while travelling around the world in 2019. You’ll also hear some stories from the road, both from our recent trips and Gus’s adventures, and get an understanding of the sort of experience we’re trying to craft for our intrepid expeditioners. Don’t be surprised if a giraffe tries to seal your drink or you find yourself having a roadside picnic high in the Andes.

Curve Cycling’s New Bucket List Expeditions Led By Gus Burrell

In this podcast Jesse Carlsson speaks to three incredible ultra-endurance athletes from the Curve Squad in the lead up to the first edition of the Rhino Run, a new 2,750 km solo, unsupported bikepacking race from Plettenberg Bay, South Africa to Windhoek, Namibia. The race also supports the Masaka Cycling Club (www.masakacyclingclub.com) and its inspiring work to uncover and nurture raw cycling talent in Uganda.

Join Abdullah Zeinab, Sarah Hammond and Stephen Lane as they each share their thoughts one week out from lining up against possibly the strongest start list in ultra-endurance cycling history. They were in the middle of packing their bikes at Curve HQ in Melbourne and making final pack-list checks immediately before heading to the airport. We discuss their preparation, bike selection, thoughts on how the race will pan out with all the hitters involved, the mental rollercoaster of long distance cycling, the stomach-stretching properties of broccoli and much, much more including Jesse's extreme overuse of the phrase "looking forward to seeing how it all to unfolds" (I counted at least 12 times).

Each of these talented athletes has a shot at wining the Rhino Run and we wish them all the best. We can't wait to see it all play out when the race begins on 21 October 2022. Check www.rhinorun.cc for all the details on how to follow the race.
