Rough Draft Cycling

Twenty-something year old Olympic Rower (2004) turned forty-something year old cycling enthusiast (current day)

Every great ride starts with a "Rough Draft"

Whether he’s surfing wheels on a Zwift course, hitting road/gravel/MTB training miles, or pedaling squares uphill, Luke Walton (your host) is getting lost in the process (literally and figuratively). All the while, he’s doing his best to narrate in the moment, live, no VoiceOver, just stream of consciousness between gasps for air.

Luke’s goal is to provide engaging commentary and analysis, relatable training/racing insights, and a few Dad jokes. Rough Draft is about sharing the unfiltered reality of becoming a stronger, (sometimes) smarter rider… although, never put it past Luke to make really bad tactical decisions. But, it’s not just about performance. Whether you're chasing watts, crafting your own race tactics, or just enjoying the ride, you'll find inspiration, motivation, and a community here that shares your passion.
