In episode #150 we chat with Unbound XL 2025 champion, Rob Britton, about:
Robert Britton is a Canadian professional cyclist, who currently competes in gravel racing, including an incredible win at the Unbound XL 2025, where he also set a new course record. Rob competed on the road for more than 10 years before hitting the gravel, and there he earned major results, including two overall wins at the Tour of the Gila in 2015 and 2018, and victory at Tour of Utah in 2017. He also won the Canadian National Time Trial Championship in 2019. After retiring from the road in 2021, he began focusing on gravel and ultra-endurance riding, where he's continued to podium and set records. He took the top spot and set the course record at the self-supported Badlands 780km gravel race in Spain, and he rode and set the BC Epic 1000 FKT in 2022, beating the previous time by 7 hours. This year, he also tackled the 8-day 2025 Cape Epic stage race in South Africa, with teammate Andrew L’Esperance. He’s known for embracing the grit and adventure of multi-day, self-supported gravel expeditions, and has a pure joy for the sport. Rob lives in Victoria, British Columbia.
