Description


Talking Luft is back, and I'm chatting with my friend Andy White aka FYXO, to put him through the full Talking Luft treatment!

Last week on Life in the Peloton I sat down with FYXO to talk about a whole range of fascinating things, from what it's like to work as a bike messenger, to the underground subculture of alley-cat racing, and all things fixed gear riding - plus a whole lot more. It was a super fun episode and I loved getting to know more about one of the more niche ‘pelotons’ out there. If you haven’t listened to it, head over and check it out.

But today, we’re on the Talking Luft program! You know the drill by now – I put FYXO through his paces with a little quiz, I tried to squeeze some extra fixie knowledge out of him, and he’s a bit of a style guru so it was a great chance to get a bit of a glimpse into what’s cool in the world of fixed gear bikes and alley cat racing.

I won’t spoil it for you but get ready to hear about FYXO’s love of the history and nostalgia of retro 90’s cycling– he’s a fan of the full Indurain casquette style, he loves a beanie, and he’s been known to be partial to a skin suit. I hope you have as much fun listening along as I had putting this one together!

Cheers,

Mitch
