I’ve recently received a few emails regarding The Cycling Europe Podcast. The sentiment of those getting in touch is summarised in one question: where has it gone? The answer is… nowhere. It’s still there, all 76 episodes of the podcast remain available to stream or download from your podcast purveyor of choice. However, no new episodes have been published since October 2023. I have a few excuses. Firstly I’ve not been well. I have been suffering from a winter cold that has been dragging on for quite some time. One thing that has been seriously affected is my voice and it has dissuaded me from recording any new episodes. My other main excuse is the new book about 2022’s cycle around Europe. Recording, editing and then publishing a podcast episode usually takes a full day and, with a teaching job to hold down, most of my weekends during the winter have been spent writing rather than editing.

There is, however, good news on both fronts. I’m now feeling much better than I did towards the back end of 2023 and the book has been completed in draft form. (There’s still much work to do on that score – I’m currently weeding out the excessively long sentences.) This should give me every excuse to crack on with editing and publishing the two podcasts that I recorded way back in November. They will be episodes 77 and 78 of the podcast and (should I really say this?)… I have made a promise to myself to get them both published before the end of February. (I might regret writing that.) The half-term holiday started yesterday so I have nine days off work before the start of term 4. That should help.

One of the episodes is about a group of French scouts who decided to cycle from France to the World Scout Jamboree in South Korea in 2023. The other episode is an interview with the EuroVelo director at the European Cyclists’ Federation. I also have a couple of monologues that are ready and waiting to be included in the podcasts. Keep watching / listening to this space…

In the meantime, you still have a little time to catch up on episodes 1 to 76. All the links are below.
