The BroomWagon Podcast 🚌

Some conversations start with a bike and end somewhere else entirely. This is one of them.
Adam Wilkoszarski is a photographer from Poznań, Poland, who rediscovered cycling as therapy and never really looked back. In March 2026 he cycled 1100 kilometres through Poland, Czechia and Germany to Zurich — in winter, mostly alone, sleeping in temperatures around zero. He arrived two days early. The bike, he said, was a rocket.
This guest episode was produced by Pascal Pensa and recorded at the MONoPOLE store in Zurich, off the back of Tool Talk #2 — an evening built around bikes, gear and the stories that happen when you leave the city behind.

Building a brand with cycling culture in mind and doing it with the perspective of bringing back to the community the heritage and the class of timeless bikes.
In this episode Calamaro talked with Rob Quirk and Simon Mottram who together are building the next chapter of Quirk Cycles.

Do you want Calamaro to take part in the M2L? Write it down and if we reach the critical mass, we will force him to do it.
