In this episode of the Roadman Cycling Podcast, I sit down with Jack Bourke, a name that might not be on your radar—yet. Jack is the world’s fastest climber you’ve never heard of, and he’s here to share the story behind his jaw-dropping Strava record-breaking attempts on cycling’s most iconic climbs: Alpe d’Huez, Passo dello Stelvio, and the Mortirolo. We dive deep into the meticulous preparation, intense training, and razor-sharp pacing strategies that fueled these incredible efforts. Jack opens up about the highs and lows of his journey, including the challenges of execution on the day and his frustration with the cycling industry’s age bias—why WorldTour teams won’t give you a chance if you’re over 25.
