Alexis also contrasts racing in America vs. Europe and reveals what makes a cyclist strategically savvy. She also tells us her favorite Zipp wheel. There's something for every cycling fan in this podcast. Photo by Thomas Maheux

There are plenty of ways procurement can stack the deck in their favor, and most of them have to do with demonstrating alignment with enterprise objectives and a vision that explains the value associated with that position in the longer term. Alexis Ryan has been in procurement for 2 decades, the last 5 years of which have been spent in leadership positions. After starting her career in Legal, she ended up in procurement with no preconceived notions about the function’s value proposition or focus. In this interview, Alexis provides her advice about how and when to request additional procurement headcount and how to increase the chances of the request being approved: Which procurement metrics can be most effective at supporting requests for additional headcount The objections to growing procurement’s headcount that leaders should expect to face in the enterprise-wide competition for resources What a documented headcount business case should look like, and the type of information it should include

The July episode of The Cycling Podcast Féminin comes from France, where Richard Moore, Orla Chennaoui and Rose Manley report from La Course, the women's one-day race in the Alps. There's also a feature from the Giro Rosa, the women's Tour of Italy. At La Course, a thrilling race was won by Annemiek van Vleuten – who also won the Giro Rosa – with the young Danish star Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig lighting it up with a long-range attack that looked like it might succeed. We hear from Uttrup Ludwig, from Giro runner-up Ashleigh Moolman Pasio, Dani Rowe and also from the rider who lost the race in the final few metres, Anna van der Breggen. Van der Breggen is the Olympic champion and has been the best in the world for the last two years, but Van Vleuten is offering a serious challenge this season. From Italy we hear from Kasia Niewiadoma and Alexis Ryan as they reflect on Van Vleuten's dominant performance at the Giro. The Cycling Podcast Féminin is supported by Rapha, Skoda and Science in Sport.

In a special episode in celebration of Women's Week on Zwift, Simon spends time in Girona with Academy Winners and pro racers with Canyon-SRAM, Leah Thorvilson and Tanja Erith. The women are now based in the Catalonian city, which is a magnet for cyclists and home to dozens of pro riders. The Zwiftcast sets up camp in La Fabrica, a cycling themed cafe in the heart of the Old Town, and a familiar pre-ride coffee destination for the pros. There's also a tour of the apartment Leah and Tanja share with team-mate Alexis Ryan, which ends up mostly being a tour of the fridge! Just why do the three women need 5kg of Parmesan cheese? And whose is the can of 12% beer? Simon accompanies Leah and Tanja on a training ride, and afterwards in a wide-ranging discussion the trio sit down to discuss life as a pro in Girona, the season ahead, their acceptance in the peloton and their assessment of the state of women's cycling. There are also contributions from Zwift brand manager Kate Veronneau on the strength of the women's community on Zwift, the health of the Acadamy programme and The Trouble With Men. We also hear from the "Zwift Sisters" - two women who use the platform to work out together and catch up despite living on opposite sides of the world. Plus pro rider and podcaster Abbey Mickey, of the Voxwomen website, gives her take on Leah and Tanja's position in the pro peloton.
