Hi, fans and supporters of The FredCast. I am overjoyed to announce that, after a hiatus in FredCasts, there is a plan to return to a regular production schedule in late 2024! Details are still being worked out including format, frequency, and topics, but rest assured that we will bring you the same (nay, better!) […]

On this week’s episode of The Spokesmen, I mentioned that I have a system to ensure that I don’t drive into my garage with bikes on the roof rack. I made it sound a bit complicated, so I thought I would write this blog post to show you how simple this can be to set-up […]

After more than nine years of production, Show #216 (released on February 7, 2015) represents the final episode of The FredCast Cycling Podcast, one of the longest-running and most-popular cycling audio podcasts available.

The FredCast was put on permanent hiatus by its host and producer, David Bernstein, so that he could spend more time with his family, on his business, and on his bike.

The FredCast, and its sister show The Spokesmen Cycling Roundtable Podcast, paved the way for other podcasts in the cycling space and we are proud of the work we have done.

We will miss doing the show for you, but we look forward to seeing you out there on the roads, doing what we all love: cycling! Until then… Enjoy the Ride!

In this episode of The FredCast, David attends the 2014 Interbike expo in Las Vegas. It’s a big show, with a lot of evolution (rather than revolution) and duplication (rather than innovation), so this year David interviews exhibitors who represent the Innovators (Nikola Innovation), the Crowd Funders (Fix It Sticks), the Wrist IDs (Epic ID), and the Power Meters (Brim Brothers). Also in this episode, David introduces you to OuterBike in Moab Utah and suggest that this would be a great place to ride the latest and greatest, and we catch up on a recent product recall.

In this episode of The FredCast, David attends the Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2014 trade show and interviews companies whose products are related to cycling or of interest to Freds. Interviews include Olloclip, Knog, Magellan, and Sports Suds. Also on this episode, David catches up on recent product recalls, and says thanks and farewell to Indoor Cycling Music.

In this week’s episode of The FredCast, we answer a listener question about how to watch live and recorded professional cycling, without a TV and even if it isn’t airing in your home country.
