Episode eighteen of the show investigated bicycling and podiatry and relevant problems. The guests were the physical therapist, Robert Brown and the podiatrist, Nathan White. Rob Brown had been the former charge Physiotherapist for the Orica-GreenEdge professional cycling team and today specialises in bicycling evaluation, injury and cycle fit. Nathan White has worked closely with many elite cyclists throughout Australasia and is the co-founder with the tailor made orthoses business Cobra9 Cycling Orthotics. In the PodChatLive on bicycling they talked about exactly what a bike fit is made up of and just how crucial the bike fit would be to avoid injury and improve cycling economy. In addition they discussed the common foot problems bike riders present with and the clinical thinking behind managing them. This was significant because of the nature of the bicycling footwear and the biomechanics of cycling which is very distinct to running and walking. They also had an deatailed dialogue around the foot level interventions both inside the footwear (orthoses) and exterior to it (on the interface with the cleat and pedal).
