Dylan Bibic is one of the biggest young talents in track cycling. With a World Champs win, Track Champions League Endurance triumph and plenty of other huge results, Dylan has brought substantial success to Canadian bike racing.

We chat about the need for an update to the equipment regulations in track, how impactful it is to have a great partner like Argon 18, why we can all put aside bike envy and take Dylan's advice to put it all aside and be the best you can be. Where does Cycling Canada and Canadian cycling enthusiasts need to look for growing track cycling, and how we can turn track into the next big Canadian Fall sport. But did you know Dylan changed up from baseball to cycling, because the former got boring? And is there a largely unknown reason for the Track Champions League collapse? Will we ever see something similar to the TCL come up again?

Check out Dylan's 2026 season and cheer him on, both on the road and track!

Behind every great racer, there are hundreds of others making it happen. Coaches are a major part of the framework and foundation needed for athletes and teams to thrive. Without strong coaching and meaningful athlete-coach relationships, few athletes could succeed.

Nigel Ellsay, former pro and current National Team Road Coach, is a key player in Canadas development as a cycling nation. Nigel stops by to chat about the importance of building trust in the relationship, developing athletes into strong riders as well as good people, the behind-the-scenes to Magdeleine Vallières World Champs win, and what coaching in 2025 looks like.

Le Grand Détour is a story and documentary series, in the progress of being created by Jérémy Rubier, a Montréal based filmmaker and cyclist. Jérémy is a fantastic person, with a great plan for what can happen and what needs to be done to help, highlight, and showcase all Quebec has to offer. A link to the crowdfunding campaign is at the bottom of this description. If possible, please donate and help Mr. Rubier create the documentary and vlog series we've all been waiting for!

I, Carter Lewis, sat down to chat with Jérémy to discuss the background and behind-the-scenes to a project such as this. We talk about what it means for someone to undertake a journey like this one, how it is approached and reacted to by local people, and the impact it has on himself, his culture, and more.

What does the training look like? How much gear is he carrying? How important is it to get high quality shots, or is editing more important? We answer all this and more with some good laughs in there too.
