The collaboration between Podia and Genesis for Roadventures has already resulted in a spectacular custom Genesis Volare 931 and this is the second machine; a Genesis Volare 853.

This is Dr. Bobby of Colourburn Studio’s very own Talbot Frameworks gravel machine called a Gnarmac.

When Podia and Genesis started talking about a partnership for Roadventures, the first step was obvious – custom painted Podia Genesis Volare bikes.

This is Christian Meier’s custom steel Speedvagen, a present to himself when he retired from being a pro-cyclist for Orica-GreenEDGE/BikeExchange last year.

This is the steel ‘do-it-all’ touring bike of Piotr Lisiecki, a Polish custom framemaker known as Pi.

We have been saving this gloriously beautiful custom carbon Legend for a special occasion, and the announcement of our Roadventures 2017 dates was just the occasion.

Our collaboration with Festka for Riding Behind the Curtain has seen us journey all around ‘Hidden Europe’. See the words, images and films of these adventures on our dedicated website. You can also see galleries of the four special bikes that carry us, including this carbon Festka.

We recently launched the brand new Podia website and with it a ‘Meet the Makers’ piece about Field Cycles of Sheffield, UK. Now we have a gallery featuring some of their amazing bikes.

At the inaugural Podia Roadventures there was quite a nice collection of bikes. We took some time to shoot few of them for the machines gallery including this steel beauty by Standert, the gents from Berlin.

There were some stunning bikes at the inaugural Roadventures and we managed to shoot a few of them. First up is Philippe’s Litespeed T3.
