Episode 70 - Darren Franks: Velomatch Talking Ultra Distance Adventures

One of my favourite memories of Darren was at the National 24 hour TT in 2019 where he was the person who grabbed my bike at the end whilst I collapsed to the floor post race. Darren is one of the most accomplished ultra distance cyclists I know having tackled The TCR, TransAm Bike Race, Paris Brest Paris and London Edinburgh London to name a few. He is also someone who doesn't like to limit himself to one category and can be found racing in the Masters Crits in London. Darren is also the Co-Founder at Velomatch, a digital cycling marketplace which unbundles advising from selling. By disrupting the market in this way we offer more choice, better advice and greater convenience.

I've also set up a Patreon if you'd like to help support the channel for less than the price of a fancy London coffee and croissant: https://www.patreon.com/chrishallrides
