It looks like the outdoor cycling season has swiftly come to a close. Although I hold out some hope that we can keep up our tradition of a ride on Thanksgiving morning, I'm guessing most of us will be spending the majority of our time in the saddle either parked in a trainer or on the rollers.
Today I'd like to begin a new feature on the blog: the Roller Video Review
If you come across a TV show, documentary, movie or YouTube video that holds your attention for at least 30 minutes while cycling indoors, please let us know so we can link it and share.
I can think of no better way to start it off than by sharing an excellent documentary by the folks over at ESPN's series 30 for 30.
It's called "Slaying the Badger" and documents Greg LeMond's relationship with his teammate Bernard Hinault.
From the tagline: American Greg Lemond helped teammate Bernard Hinault, The Badger, win the Tour de France as teammates. In 1986, it was supposed to be LeMond's turn, but would it be? It was a turning point in cycling.
You can watch the whole thing on Netflix, ESPN or YouTube here:
