Pogacar – der Überflieger Tadej Pogacar kommt mit 13 Saisonsiegen zur Tour de France und ist der klare Topfavorit.

Vingegaard – der Jäger Jonas Vingegaard kommt als amtierender Giro-Sieger zur Tour und hat zuletzt bei Vuelta und Giro bewiesen, dass er Grand Tours dominieren kann.

Der Besenwagen segelt über den Mondsee. Tobias Bayer vom Team Alpecin-Premier Tech steht am Steuerrad und blickt aus dem Schiebedach nach vorn. Der WorldTour-Profi aus Österreich ist bereits seit 6 Jahren im Dienste der belgischen Equipe und hat mit dem vergangenen Giro d‘Italia bereits genauso viele Grand Tours in den Beinen.

Vingegaard schreibt Geschichte Jonas Vingegaard gewinnt den Giro d'Italia 2026 und ist damit erst der achte Fahrer der Geschichte, der alle drei Grand Tours gewonnen hat. Bent und Lukas analysieren die entscheidende Finalwoche, Vingegaards überlegene Bergankünfte und die Frage, ob Visma und Vingegaard auf dem Weg zur Tour de France unterschätzt werden. Dazu blicken wir auf die weiteren Fahrer in der Gesamtwertung und die Entdeckungen des Giro.

Live from the Wattage Festival in Oostende, Johan Bruyneel, Bradley Wiggins, and Spencer Martin break down Jonas Vingegaard's overall win at the Giro d'Italia to become only the eighth rider of all-time to win all three Grand Tours, what, if anything, his rivals could have done to stop him, and, of course, what this means for his looming battle with Tadej Pogačar at the Tour de France. They also briefly discuss Jonathan Milan's win in the Stage 21 sprint in Rome and what it means for him and his Lidl-Trek team.

Stage 21 of the Giro d'Italia 2026, and the race rolls into Rome with Jonas Vingegaard already the story of the three weeks, but the peloton wasn't done yet. Vingegaard obliterated the general classification. The first rider of his era to win all three Grand Tours. A victory lap, but cycling doesn't really do those quietlym and Rome made sure of it. Jonathan Milan had been waiting for this moment. Stage after stage, the sprint finishes slipping away. Today, finally, he got his. A thrilling race at the front, and Milan took it. This Giro produced characters that will stay with you. Eulalio, winning hearts from start to finish in that white jersey. Ciccone, racing with everything he had, every single day, heart firmly on sleeve. Magnier, young, fearless, dominating the sprint stages before Milan had his say. Ned Boulting and Jacopo Guarnieri are here to close out the Giro d'Italia 2026 from the finish line This episode of For The Love Of Cycling is sponsored by Bikmo cycle insurance.

Stage 20 of the Giro d'Italia 2026, and Jonas Vingegaard finished his race the only way he knows how. A fifth stage win. And with it, his name joins the smallest club in cycling - riders to have won all three Grand Tours. Giulio Ciccone wrapped up the mountains classification. Eulalio had done enough to make the white jersey his own. And Kuss, emptied after yesterday's effort, was a different rider today. That's what three weeks of Grand Tour racing does to you. There had been talk of Visma giving Piganzoli the stage, but after Visma had burned through their riders earlier than usual, Jonas decided to put the stage to bed. Behind, Bernal emptied the tank for his teammate Arensman to hold onto 4th place, losing out on the podium spot to Jai Hindley. Ned Boulting and Jacopo Guarnieri report from the finish line.

This week Robyn is joined by Road Race World Champion Magdeleine Vallieres. The 24-year-old EF Education-Oatly rider wasn't seen as one of the main favourites when the women's peloton lined up at the start of last year's course in Rwanda, but after one of the hardest World Championships in years she was a convincing winner, attacking clear from the lead group of three at the bottom of the final climb. In the process she took Canada's first ever rainbow jersey on the road, a year before the Worlds goes to Montreal – just two hours from Magdeleine's hometown.In this episode Magdeleine talks about that day in Kigali – the buildup, the execution, the reaction, the celebration – and this year's Worlds in Canada, as well as becoming a leader, riding for GC, the evolution of women's Grand Tours and falling in love with cycling on a 1,000km bikepacking adventure aged just nine.Chat begins at 3.08-----------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP   Guys, the cobbled classics are over for another year - and what a Spring we've had! Although the cobbles may be behind us, we still have the Ardennes to look forward to over the next week! Who better to wrap up the cobbles and preview the Ardennes with than my old mates Luke Durbridge and Tom Southam right here on this month's Race Communiqué.   We kick this month's episode off by rounding up the Spring so far; from Pogačar's dominance at Flanders right through to Van Aert's redemption at Paris Roubaix, there's been heaps of racing to get stuck into. One race I didn't manage to follow too closely was the Tour of the Basque Country, where young Paul Seixas absolutely dominated from start to finish. Fortunately, Southam was there on the ground in the EF team car, so he gives us the scoop from Spain, and just how good Seixas really is.    The Ardennes classics have already kicked off, with Remco Evenepoel dusting Skjelmose in the sprint to win the Amstel Gold Race. Southam was in the convoy dealing with a unique….pretty gross situation that he's never come across in his career. Safe to say Remco's shape is ominous ahead of Liège - the 4th monument of the year - which is only a few days away. With Pog, Remco, and Seixas all on the start list it looks like we're in for an epic showdown. We go through the course and pick our favourites.   Durbo's just got back after a few days off the bike following Paris Roubaix, and that's what this month's PeloChat is all about; keeping mentally fresh and taking time away from cycling. As you all know by now, Luke's just announced that he's hanging up the wheels after national champs in January 2027. He's riding out a long, distinguished career of 15 years - so this advice is worth listening to.   Talking Tactics is all about that head to head to head we're getting hyped about at Liège-Bastogne-Liège; how do Remco and Seixas overthrow Pogi who, on paper, is probably the favourite. Southam gives us his thoughts.    Finally - of course - it's the Communiquiz; this month I'm quiz master and we're talking monuments. Who's DNF'd more monuments; me, Durbo, or Southam? You'll have to listen to find out.    The cobbles may have finished but there's still heaps of great racing to enjoy, so give this ep a listen and get hyped up for the Ardennes. Not long to go until we can talk Grand Tours, and the Giro - Mama Mia, that's come around fast!    Cheers, Mitch   The Race Communiqué is brought to you by TrainingPeaks!

This week, James and Will chat to George Hincapie, the super-est of domestiques, double 'ard Classics man and erstwhile lieutenant to Lance Armstrong.George was born in Queens, New York City, on 29th June 1973, to cycling-mad Colombian dad, Ricardo. By twelve he was throwing elbows racing adults in Central Park, and by his teens he was showing the talent that would take him to the Olympics in 1992 and his first pro season, with Motorola, in 1994.At first a self-confessed bunch of American upstarts, Motorola morphed into one of the most formidable teams of the 90s and 2000s, US Postal. There, George forged his status as one of cycling's strongest and most dependable riders, supporting team leader Lance Armstrong as road captain and lieutenant across all seven of Armstrong's Tour wins – though of course that's wins in inverted commas.George retired from the pro peloton in 2012 after 19 seasons in which he started the Tour de France 17 consecutive times, finishing it 16 times and winning one team-time-trial stage. He also rode 50 Monuments including finishing second at Paris Roubaix and third at Tour of Flanders; he won Gent-Wevelgem in 2001; and was three-time US National Champ.Today, George is bringing all that experience to his new team, Modern Adventure Pro Cycling, with the express intention of giving young riders a shot at the big time while becoming 'the next great American team', who might one day compete in the Grand Tours. We spoke to George ahead of Paris-Roubaix, where Modern Adventure had the first big wildcard entry of its inaugural season.Our chat begins at 10.24-----------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

This week on History's Greatest Idiots (Featuring Peter of In The Wheels), we explore two Scottish success stories: cyclist David Millar's fall from grace and redemption, and comic writer Mark Millar's controversial rise to Hollywood riches.Born 4th January 1977 in Malta, David Millar burst onto cycling's scene in 2000, winning the Tour de France prologue and wearing the yellow jersey. He won four Tour stages and became the first British rider to wear the leader's jersey in all three Grand Tours.On 23rd June 2004, whilst dining in Biarritz, French police arrested Millar. They found empty EPO phials and syringes. Millar confessed to doping in 2001 and 2003. He was banned for two years, stripped of his 2003 World Championship, and fired by Cofidis.Returning in 2006, Millar transformed into cycling's most vocal anti-doping advocate. He served on WADA's Athlete Committee, became peloton spokesperson during Operación Puerto, and proved he could win clean with stages in the Vuelta, Giro, and a 2012 Tour victory. He achieved almost identical results in both halves of his career, retiring in 2014.Born 24th December 1969 in Coatbridge, Mark Millar became one of comics' most successful and divisive figures. After The Authority and The Ultimates (Time's "comic book of the decade"), Millar created Millarworld, designing properties to sell to Hollywood. Wanted, Kick-Ass, and Kingsman became films before issues appeared. Netflix purchased Millarworld in 2017.Critical reception has been harsh. Old Man Logan was called "grotesque" and "without substance", Kick-Ass criticised for undermining its premise, Nemesis dismissed as shock value. When asked about using assaults as a plot device, Millar said: "The ultimate act that would be the taboo, to show how bad some villain is..."Politically, Millar supported Brexit as a path to Scottish independence, then resigned from Labour in 2025, calling Keir Starmer's government "nightmarish, totalitarian."Two Millars. One rebuilt his reputation through honesty. The other built a Hollywood empire on controversy.David Millar: From Yellow Jersey to Prison CellMark Millar: Comics, Controversy and Self-Promotion⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Artist: Sarah Chey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiverr.com/sarahchey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP The Digger and The Doughboy are back, live from the Tour Down Under. We're back. Ian Boswell (The Doughboy) and I (The Digger) got back together for a one-night-only live show at the Tour Down Under, sitting down with some big names from the peloton for an open, no-filter chat about all things cycling. From the cobbled Classics to the Grand Tours and of course the Tour Down Under, we wanted to make sure we covered it all. We kicked things off with Laurence Pithie and Luke Lamperti, diving deep into their experiences in the brutal but beautiful world of the cobbled Classics. Laurence reflected on his breakout years with Groupama-FDJ and how things have evolved since moving to Red Bull Bora hansgrohe, while Luke shared his take after racing with Classics royalty at Soudal Quick-Step. We also put them on the spot with some big Grand Tour predictions. While we had the boys up, we went full tech nerd mode with the tool-wrenching oracle himself, Dave Rome. Fresh from wandering the team zones, Dave unpacked the latest tech trends and gave us a sneak peek at what teams are rolling out, including early looks at bikes heading toward 2026. To wrap it all up, we brought on veteran Michal Kwiatkowski from INEOS, Aussie superstar Luke Plapp from Jayco AlUla, and Picnic PostNL Director Sportif Matt Winston. Together, we broke down the Tour Down Under stages and dug into how Jayco were planning to bounce back and move forward after a tough Nationals campaign. This was a live recording, one of those nights you really had to be there for. But if you couldn't make it, this episode is the next best thing. Jump in and soak up the vibes. Cheers!

Der findes ikke mange hold, der er lige så dominerende som det danske herrelandshold i håndbold. Derfor er de selvfølgelig også kæmpefavoritter, når de fredag indleder EM på hjemmebane. Historikken siger dog, at danskerne har haft det meget svært ved netop denne slutrunde. Bliver 2026 året, hvor Gidsel og co. endelig får hul på EM-bylden? Er det et farvel til drømmen om Tour de France-sejr nummer tre, når Jonas Vingegaard nu har besluttet sig for at køre Giro d'Italia i år? Danskeren har mulighed for at blive den kun ottende rytter til at vinde alle tre Grand Tours, men er det den rigtige prioritering for en rytter af hans klasse? I Australien er Clara Tauson klar til årets første Grand Slam. Eller er hun? Efter to turneringer har hun stadig ikke vundet en kamp, men derimod pådraget sig en skade. Heldigvis har hun fået en nem lodtrækning i de to første kampe, men derfra bliver hendes Australian Open et regulært mareridt.

With Wout van Aert, Jonas Vingegaard, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot and Matthew Brennan, we've already heard from the main protagonists of our team over the past year. But what about the man in the team car behind most of this season's successes? We joined him in what he calls his living room - the team bus - to talk about winning Grand Tours, lessons learned for next year, and above all: how do you build a team for 2026? How does the selection process work? Where did we need to improve? And how do you find the right profiles to make a team truly click? We take a closer look at every reinforcement for 2026.

Sikkerheden starter med dækket – både på cyklen og bilen. "Who is this Noah Andersen?" Det spørgsmål har jeg fået igen og igen af udenlandske cykeljournalister under årets Grand Tours. Og med god grund. 18-årige Noah "Tarzan" Lindholm Møller Andersen fra Trorød har taget cykelverdenen med storm. Han slutter 2025 som nummer 1 på alle verdensranglister for U19-ryttere og har fået både danske og internationale øjne rettet mod sig. Næste skridt er allerede på plads: I 2026 rykker han fra Red Bull - Bora - Hansgrohes juniorhold, Team Grenke Auto Eder, op på deres U23-mandskab. Men hvem er han egentlig, knægten fra Trorød? I dette store interview kommer vi helt tæt på verdensetteren. Hør den vilde historie om, hvordan han som barn fik tilbudt en plads på Chelseas fodboldakademi, men valgte cyklen og landevejen i stedet. Vi dykker ned i en cykelgal familie, hvor mor Bettina har fulgt onkel Rolf Sørensens karriere på tætteste hold, og taler om det modige valg at droppe ud af skolen for at satse alt på cykeldrømmen som kun 16-årig.

Today on the show: Tadej Pogacar says he could win all three Grand Tours in one season, the Schleck brothers are back, and Geraint Thomas knows nothing, or so he says. 

In this second episode of Inside the Beehive: The Off-Season Tapes, we sit down with Tour de France Femmes winner Pauline Ferrand-Prévot in our team bus. She looks back on an incredible first season with Team Visma | Lease a Bike, winning both Paris-Roubaix and the Tour de France Femmes. She explains more about her transition from mountainbiking back to road cycling, integrating in and building a Grand Tour winning team and her special relationship with Marianne Vos.

In this week's episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe is joined by Brian Nygaard and Michele Pelacci as we run the rule over the 2026 Giro d'Italia just presented in Rome.  The ‘Corsa Rosa' will start from Eastern Europe for the second year in a row. After Albania this year, next May it'll be Bulgaria's turn to host Italy's national tour - at a hefty price. In part three of the episode, we hear from Eurosport's Bulgarian reporter Simeon Kichukov about what the Giro should expect from Bulgaria and his homeland from the race. We then ‘revisit' Albania - checking in with their national coach, Mejdin Malhani - to find out what legacy, if any, the Giro has left there.   There's also discussion about which GC contenders might actually be tempted to throw their hat into the ring. Should Jonas Vingegaard seize this chance to complete a Grand Slam of Grand Tours? One of our hosts this week certainly believes so… EPISODE SPONSORS NordVPN Get NordVPN two-year plan + four months extra ➼ https://nordvpn.com/tcp It's risk-free with Nord's 30-day money-back guarantee.

Our guest on Episode #75 of the TGG Podcast, in association with Teamworks, is Merijn Zeeman. Merijn is the General Manager of AZ Alkmaar - a team that regularly compete at the top of the Eredivisie, despite having a budget that's dwarfed by their bigger rivals. Prior to joining AZ, Merijn was the Sporting Director at Dutch cycling outfit Team Visma, helping them create history by winning all three Grand Tours in 2023. In this episode, Merijn told us about the lessons he has taken from cycling into football, about how AZ have managed to outsmart the opposition and about their recent collaboration with Teamworks and Luke Bornn. We hope you enjoy this episode and if you do, please follow us via your preferred podcast provider. SHOW NOTES => 02:18: Big clubs in Holland have a budget 4 to 5x that of AZ. 03:30: Started at AZ in December 2024. Came in from cycling, where he was Sporting Director. Spent 10 years there.  05:08: How Team Visma were transformed from also-rans to winners of three Grand Tours in one season. Culture had been bad/ still had one of lowest budgets. 08:55: How they transformed the culture. "It is not logical to expect a group of people will work good together." 14:22: Bringing in influences from outside cycling and why. 17:51: Move into football with AZ. How it came about. 19:07: General Manager role - not one we hear about often in UK football. What does it involve? 21:54: What makes AZ special and even unique as a club? Average finish of 3.8 in the Eredivisie in last 10 years. 26:27: Was the transition from cycling to football difficult? Originally from Alkmaar, which helped. Relationship with Dave Brailsford and also Erik ten Hag, who invited him to watch training at Manchester United. 29:33: How club use data. Influence of Billy Beane and Luke Bornn. Team Visma used data to overcome one outstanding rival rider. Use of Teamworks Intelligence and how it has helped. "One of the ambitions is that in maybe five years we can win games because we understand the game better through data than any other team."  35:06: Big thing has been making data more accessible to the coaches at the club.  36:48: How AZ use Teamworks Intelligence. Big thing is merging event and tracking data. Previously the club had tried to develop their own model.  39:23: Using objective data to counter biases in decision-making. "For a lot of coaches it is about opinions or visions, not about objective information. It is very hard to progress if you don't have objective information." 42:25: How Team Visma used data to usurp a dominant rival rider. Taking this lesson into football. 45:35: What are the club's ambitions for the future?

This week James is joined by Dr Xavier Disley, sports scientist, aerodynamicist, national masters track champion and founder of AeroCoach, a UK collective of coaches, scientists and engineers who are all obsessed with one thing: making cyclists go faster. To that end, Xavier has worked with WorldTour teams and winners of all three Grand Tours, track champions, Hour record breakers, component manufacturers and clothing makers, all with one goal in mind: going faster.In our chat Xavier explains the basics of aerodynamics and the pursuit of speed from the ground up - underlying principles, how a rider/bike works, mistakes people make that slow them down, the best bang for buck when it comes to kit, and the all-important holy grail, how to go faster for free. It's a techie subject but Xavier explains it in a brilliantly relatable way, so put the kettle on and settle into you favourite chair. Or onto your turbo.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP Guys, it's here - the final episode of Life In The Peloton for 2025! This season has absolutely flown by; it feels like yesterday I was cracking open a Coopers at the Tour Down Under back in January getting warmed up for the year ahead, but here we are, the Il Lombardia of the podcasting calendar. I wanted to round the season out with a bang, so I've got a couple of very special guests this month. My old mates Daniel Friebe and Lionel Bernie - perhaps better known as the masterminds behind The Cycling Podcast - are on the pod, and we're going through everything cycling & podcasting from Armstrong to Zubeldia.  These guys are true legends of cycling journalism. They've been there on the ground at the Grand Tours for a decade now, and even before that have been covering races like the Tour de France since the 1990s! They have the sort of depth of knowledge that you only get when you've been inside the sport for generations, and their podcasts really show that. Long time listeners of either pod will remember when LITP was actually hosted by The Cycling Podcast way back in 2020 & 2021, from 2021 to 2024 the guys had me out in France making daily The Cycling Podcast episodes on the ground with other guest presenters like Ian Boswell, Richard Abraham, and Graham Willgoss. I learnt absolutely heaps from lifting the curtain seeing how these guys operate, and I feel like my own podcast stepped up a level thanks to their influence. In this ep, we go through the whole timeline of The Cycling Podcast, from the early days before the boys knew each other, right through to today and what's next! I feel like we really dig into how the sausage is made… Of course, The Cycling Podcast itself was founded by Lionel, Daniel, and the late - and very great - Richard Moore, who sadly passed away in 2022. Richard was a hero of mine, an innovator in podcasting, and an absolute pillar of cycling media. His influence can still be felt on the pod, and I loved hearing Daniel and Lionel's old stories of the total legend. There's a few Talking Luft style questions thrown in there for the boys too - worst ever meal on a bike race, best ever podcast guest (me, obviously…), cycling heroes, and more!  Guys, this year's been another absolutely massive one for the pod - and I've had a mega time producing these episodes for you to enjoy. Thanks so much for lending me your ears every month and listening to me yarn away with a whole host of guests. Don't despair - we've still got an episode of Life In The Peloton's Race Radio and The Race Communique to come before the end of October, then it's time to hang the mic up for a few months and enjoy an off season filled with bike riding, a few frothies, and making plans to make the pod even better in 2026.  Cheers! Mitch ----more---- I'll be heading to Adelaide this January for the Santos Tour Down Under - chasing the racing, riding the bunches in the morning, and soaking up all the summer vibes the city has to offer.

Is a river cruise just a floating hotel, or can it be one of the most authentic ways to travel? In this episode, we explore the world of Riviera Travel river cruises with the brand's North American President, Stuart Milan. As the UK's #1 river cruise and tour operator makes its official entry into the US market, we uncover what "upper premium" travel really means and ask the crucial question: How can you find a genuine, meaningful cultural connection while traveling along Europe's most historic waterways?Stuart Milan reveals the secrets behind Riviera Travel's 40-year success and its expansion as Riviera Travel US.

Luke Rowe knows what's needed to take on the Tour de France. With eight appearances (five of which were on winning teams), the former pro-turned-Sports Director has logged more miles than most at the grandest of the Grand Tours. In this episode of Breakfast with Boz, Luke joins Ian to share his stories from inside the peloton, insights on what makes a winning team successful, predictions on this year's race, and behind-the-scenes access to his current team, Decathlon-AG2R.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP The Giro has finished for another year, which means all eyes are now shifting to the big one; Le Tour. We're just under a month away from the Grand Depart, so who better to speak to than an Aussie legend that's won stages in all three Grand Tours, nearly won the Vuelta last year, bagged himself the Silver medal at the World Champs, and narrowly missed the podium at the Tour back in 2021 - that's right, it's Perth's own Ben O'Connor!  Now in his 9th pro season, Ben's just joined the Aussie team over at Greenedge. I wanted to know what it's like for him finally signing for the only Australian World Tour team as an Aussie rider representing over in Europe. He's a proud Western Australian, hailing from Subiaco over in Perth, and I wanted to know how he felt about the riding and racing scene over there; especially after they hosted the Aussie nationals over this year! Ben's career so far has seen him consistently improving year on year, and without doubt 2024 was the best season he's had so far. He won himself a stage early on in the Vuelta - completing the Grand Tour set to go along with his stages in the 2020 Giro and 2021 Tour - led the race for 2 weeks and almost won the overall before being Roglified by a storming Slovenian on his way to his 4th victory at the Spanish race. On top of this, Ben finished 2nd at the World Champs - establishing himself as a real one-day contender after getting the better of the likes of Van Der Poel and Remco!  Of course, a lot of you might know Ben best for his role in the ‘Tour de France: Unchained' series over on Netflix. I wanted to find out more about what it was like racing the biggest race of the season with cameras in your face all day, and how he felt about the way the series portrayed him.  As always, we end up talking about all sorts: Ben's career so far, the highs, the lows, fatherhood, what Ben likes doing away from cycling, and more. I also wanted to chuck in some listener questions! That's right, those of you that heard the call and sent in your questions for Ben'O get some airtime on this month's pod. I love hearing your questions and pitching them to Ben, so make sure you listen to hear what he had to say! I've loved watching Ben's career and seeing him grow into a real Grand Tour contender. How could I not, he's an Aussie - especially now he's over on Greenedge rocking that fresh MAAP kit! It's no secret that Ben's number one goal this year is the Tour de France, so I had to ask him if he thinks Pogi can be beaten. What does Ben think? You'll have to listen to find out… Enjoy this ep, guys. Ben's a great guest and I had a blast having a yarn with him about bikes, wine, Netflix, and heaps more. Good luck in France this July, Ben! Can't wait to see you giving it to old mate Tadej!  Cheers, Mitch! ----more---- This episode is brought to you by our friends at Saily. If you're heading overseas for your next ride or trip?

The Giro d'Italia's mini Strade Bianche had everything: A winner everybody can hear for, a precocious young talent, GC crashes, dust galore.In this episode of Spin Cycle, Caley, Jonny, and Kit break down a spectacular weekend of racing, look back at some of our favorite Grand Tours stages of the modern era, downsize Big Jim to Medium Sized Jim, and wonder how UAE will handle yet another leadership question. 

The Giro d'Italia rolls out from Albania on Friday and in doing so will introduce cycling fans to one of the more mysterious and probably misunderstood countries on the continent of Europe.  We, too, knew very little about the 'Land of Eagles' but, in January this year, were invited on a remarkable treasure hunt that began with a listener's enigmatic direct message into Daniel Friebe's Twitter inbox. The story that then revealed itself - without giving too much away here - was one of an epic cycling journey that also turned into an astonishing voyage of self-discovery, into the so-called ‘Accursed Mountains' of northern Albania.  This KM0 is exceptionally available to all listeners, whether Friends of The Cycling Podcast or not.

Is it all a secret ploy to get Nils Politt across the line first? Probably not. Caley, Jonny, and Dane discuss the biggest news of the week (anything Pogačar does, obviously) and then question WTF was happening with all the crashes at Brugge de Panne, look into the extra wildcard teams that might be racing Grand Tours this season, and salute Caleb Ewan getting an early win in Ineos colors. Plus much more, of course.
