Vuelta-Recap, Gall-Wechsel & Sicherheit, Fördergelder und Olympia mit Falk Putzke Nach den kräftezehrenden Wochen in Spanien biegt die Radsport-Saison in ihre heiße Herbstphase ein! Basti, Paul und Andy arbeiten das Finale der Vuelta a España auf, blicken auf die Kanadischen WorldTour-Klassiker als Gradmesser für die WM und begrüßen im Gastpart einen Mann mit Schlüsselrolle im deutschen und internationalen Radsport.

Join Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss as they look back at the weekend's two World Tour one-day races in Canada.As expected on such demanding courses, the cream rose to the top, but what does this tell us ahead of the UCI World Championships, which take place in Canada in just over a week's time. Remco Evenepoel won the GP de Québec and Isaac del Toro took the GP de Montréal, catapulting themselves to the top of the list of favourites for the rainbow jersey in the men's road race in the absence of reigning champion Tadej Pogačar, who is out injured after crashing at the Vuelta. But what other clues did we garner from the two races? And who else is on the early list of favourites?We also analyse the big transfers of the week, with Felix Gall and Gregor Muhlberger swapping Decathlon for Lidl-Trek next season. Gall is an intriguing signing – bolstering Lidl-Trek's list of Grand Tour riders. After finishing on the podium at both the Giro and the Vuelta this season, the Austrian is staking a claim to be considered the best of the rest – but is he likely to be able to match the likes of Del Toro and Seixas? We also look at Ben Turner's move from Netcompany-Ineos to Soudal-Safety Jogger.

Nueva entrega de A Rueda de Samu con Nomio, la sección de Escapa Podcast en la que analizamos la actualidad del ciclismo junto a Samuel Sánchez, campeón olímpico y pódium en Tour y Vuelta. Después del final de La Vuelta hacemos balance con Samu de todo lo que ha dejado la carrera: el rendimiento de los españoles, el impacto que sigue teniendo la prueba dentro y fuera de nuestro país y si una victoria puede ayudar a Movistar a reforzar su proyecto y atraer nuevos patrocinadores. Y ponemos especialmente el foco en Enric Mas: ¿debe cambiar ya de objetivo y centrar los próximos años en buscar ese gran podio en el Tour de Francia? Miramos también hacia el Mundial. Samuel nos cuenta qué se siente realmente cuando un ciclista corre con la selección, qué hace diferente a un Campeonato del Mundo respecto a cualquier otra carrera, qué tipo de corredor puede adaptarse mejor al recorrido y quiénes llegan como grandes nombres a vigilar. Además, debatimos sobre las palabras de Mattias Skjelmose y la competencia interna en Lidl-Trek, sobre si el ciclismo necesita un tercer coche de equipo en jornadas de calor extremo y si tendría sentido introducir sustituciones durante los primeros días de una gran vuelta. Y Samu nos cuenta también su experiencia en el Tour de Armenia, viviendo el ciclismo desde una perspectiva muy diferente a la de sus años como profesional. A Rueda de Samu cuenta con el apoyo de Nomio. Nomio es un shot deportivo desarrollado para esos entrenamientos y competiciones en los que quieres exigirle un poco más al cuerpo.

Sauerland-Realität, Politt-Jubel & die Sprinter-Frage bei der Vuelta Der Besenwagen schaltet wieder durch alle Gänge! Zwischen lokaler Radsport-Härte im Sauerland und WorldTour-Dominanz in Spanien nehmen Basti, Paul und Andy das prall gefüllte Geschehen der Woche unter die Lupe.

Nel nuovo episodio di Triciclo Podcast abbiamo il piacere di ospitare Luca Guercilena.Dopo 16 anni alla guida del progetto Lidl-Trek, uno dei manager più stimati e influenti del ciclismo internazionale ha iniziato una nuova, affascinante avventura professionale in RCS Sport, con responsabilità e obiettivi legati direttamente al Giro d'Italia.E pensate: solo al suo terzo giorno di lavoro in RCS, Luca Guercilena si è seduto sulla poltrona di Triciclo Podcast per raccontarci le sue primissime impressioni, le sfide che lo attendono e soprattutto i grandi obiettivi per il futuro.Al centro della chiacchierata, naturalmente, c'è il Giro d'Italia: come continuare a farlo crescere, come alzarne ulteriormente il livello e, soprattutto, come renderlo sempre più forte e centrale sulla scena internazionale.Un episodio ricco di spunti, retroscena e prospettive sul futuro del ciclismo e della Corsa Rosa.

In deze vierde aflevering van de ZLM Tour Specials praten Maxim van Horssels en Niels Bastiaens je bij vanuit Schijndel. Na drie overwinningen op rij voor Lidl-Trek kreeg de ZLM Tour vandaag eindelijk een nieuwe winnaar.Een vroege vlucht van uiteindelijk vier renners hield stand over de 210 kilometer rondom Schijndel. Lionel Taminiaux (Lotto-Intermarché) pakte met een grote dosis revanchegevoelens de overwinning door nog net voorbij Martijn Rasenberg te rijden.Daarnaast sprak Niels uitgebreid met Arthur van Dongen, ploegleider bij Visma | Lease a Bike. Hij legt uit hoe de jonge selectie leert van fouten in de waaiers, hoe het afhaken van speerpunt Edoardo Affini roet in het eten gooide en waarom Henry Hobbs hoop biedt voor de sprints. Tot slot duiken we in 'Project Magagnotti' bij Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe. Danny van Poppel vertelt over zijn rol als mentor en hoe hij het 19-jarige Italiaanse sprintfenomeen de komende drie jaar naar de wereldtop moet gaan loodsen.

In deze derde aflevering van de ZLM Tour Specials praten Maxim Horssels en Niels Bastiaens je helemaal bij vanuit Bergen op Zoom! Ondanks de extreme wind ging de etappe door en kregen de wielerfans een waar waaierspektakel voorgeschoteld op de Oesterdam.Lidl-Trek en Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe gaven een absolute masterclass in het waaierrijden. Uiteindelijk sprintte de ervaren Max Walscheid naar de overwinning, wat alweer de derde ritzege op rij betekent voor Lidl-Trek. BORA-talent Alessio Magagnotti (19) moest het afleggen tegen de ervaring van de Duitser.Daarnaast spotte Niels bij een bescheiden Red Bull-camper een opvallende gast: strategisch adviseur Allan Peiper. Na een zware periode met zijn gezondheid sprak hij openhartig over zijn herstel, zijn laagdrempelige bezoek aan de ZLM Tour en zijn adviserende rol richting Remco Evenepoel en de Tour de France.Tot slot blikken Maxim en Niels vooruit op etappe 4 in en rond Schijndel (210 km), waar de renners de 'Vlagheideberg' moeten bedwingen. Krijgen de pure sprinters zoals Gerben Thijssen hier eindelijk hun kans?00:00 - Waaiergeweld op de Oesterdam: Hoe de wind de koers compleet uit elkaar trok en Lidl-Trek samen met Red Bull en Visma | Lease a Bike de koers domineerde.02:30 - Routine vs. Jeugd: Max Walscheid pakt de winst voor de 19-jarige Italiaanse belofte van Red Bull. Wat ging er mis bij zijn sprint op het kleine verzet?04:15 - Klassementsleider Vacek stevig in het zadel: Lidl-Trek behoudt de controle over het algemeen klassement.05:20 - Exclusief met Allan Peiper: Niels in gesprek met de topstrategist over zijn gezondheid, zijn luwte in het parcours en zijn bijdrage aan het Tour-plan rond Remco Evenepoel.12:20 - Vooruitblik Etappe 4 (Schijndel): 210 kilometer, vier lokale lussen en een passage over de Brabantse VAM0berg (de Vlagheideberg). Krijgen we een massasprint?

Lorena Wiebes made it two wins from two at the Tour de France Femmes, but Stage 2 was anything but routine. The road to Geneva was animated from the outset, with repeated attacks over the climbs before Lidl-Trek threw a late tactical punch through Riejanne Markus, whose solo move asked serious questions of SD Worx-Protime. As Markus continued to dangle just ahead of the peloton deep into the finale, SD Worx were forced to commit everything to the chase, leaving Wiebes to fend for herself when the race finally came back together. It didn't matter. The yellow jersey found a gap exactly when she needed it, producing another explosive finish to beat Elisa Balsamo and Marianne Vos, strengthening her grip on the race lead in the process. Ned Boulting and Lizzie Deignan break down Stage 2 of the Tour de France Femmes. Plus, Ned meets up with David Millar to talk about one of the more surprising partnerships in cycling this year: Factor Bikes' collaboration with SpongeBob SquarePants.  _______________________________________________________________

Abby and Loren talk about the second stage of the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift with a little help from an old friend. Lidl-Trek tried to shake up SD Worx-Protime, and it almost worked. One of the best in the world continues to show why she has that title. With audio diaries from Amanda "Spratty" Spratt (Lidl-Trek), Lily Williams (Human Powered Health), and Pfeiffer Georgi (Picnic PostNL). 

Riejanne Markus rookte met haar solo het hele team van SD Worx op. Toch bleek ook dat niet genoeg. Op 400 meter van de streep werd ze gegrepen, waarna Lorena Wiebes in het geel naar haar tweede ritzege op rij sprintte. In een nieuwe aflevering van In Het Wiel blikt Niek Goedvolk samen met Roxane Knetemann en verslaggever Maarten Teunisse terug op de etappe. Rox vertelt waarom Markus onmogelijke dingen mogelijk kan maken, terwijl Maarten zag hoe uitgeblust de rensters van SD Worx na afloop waren. Verder gaat het over de tactiek van Lidl-Trek, dat niet alles op Elisa Balsamo zette. En misschien nog wel belangrijker: niemand schoot SD Worx te hulp in de achtervolging. Is dit de manier om de ploeg van Wiebes te kraken?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A few weeks before the start of the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift, Niamh Fisher-Black was in a hotel in Andorra with Lidl-Trek already preparing for the biggest race on the calendar. Fresh off a gutsy ride that landed her fifth overall at the Giro d'Italia, Niamh spoke with Abby about her progression in the sport and why it's important to always find the fun in racing a bike. 

Rouleur reporter Tristan Rees joins Rachel Jary to round up the 2026 Tour de France. From what the Champs-Élysées felt like on the final stage through to the penultimate alpine stage, Tristan reflects on his experience from on the ground across an unforgettable three weeks of racing. Plus, Lidl-Trek head coach Mattias Reck reflects on how Mads Pedersen prepared for his green jersey win with CORE at the centre of his training.To celebrate the Tour, CORE are giving Rouleur listeners an exclusive 10% off discount so you can train like the pros.

Não foi surpresa, mas foi emocionante até o fim. O Tour de France terminou neste domingo em Paris com um espetáculo pelas ruas da cidade mais famosa do mundo. A vitória ficou com Mathieu Van der Poel. O camisa amarela Tadej Pogacar, porém, também foi protagonista em uma fuga agonizante com seu grande rival das clássicas. Mads Pedersen (verde), Richard Carapaz (KOM) e Del Toro (Branca) foram os campeões nas classificações secundárias. Lidl-Trek levou como melhor equipe. Tudo sobre a última semana do Tour de France e muito mais no RADIO da semana.

Mathieu van der Poel s'est imposé sur les Champs-Elysées. Tadej Pogacar s'offre un 5e Tour de France. Remco Evenepoel termine 2e du classement général.

Richard Carapaz remporte la 18ème étape du Tour de France 2026. Personne n'a su s'accrocher à l'Équatorien de chez EF Education - EasyPost qui a donc eu le temps de savourer seul les derniers mètres dans la station d'Orcières-Merlette. Valentin Paret-Peintre, le Français porteur du maillot à pois, termine lui quatrième. Il ne compte donc plus qu'un point de retard sur Tadej Pogacar, toujours leader au classement de la montagne.

Een etappe die bijna niet te vatten is in een podcast, maar we hebben het toch geprobeerd. Een nieuwe In Het Wiel over de zege van Jasper Philipsen, het zichzelf wegcijferen van Mathieu van der Poel en de tactische keuzes van Mads Pedersen en Lidl-Trek. Niek Goedvolk bespreekt het allemaal met Roxane Knetemann en wielerverslaggever Marijn Abbenhuijs. Is Van der Poel de beste ploeggenoot die je kunt hebben? Moet hij naar orders van de ploeg luisteren of heeft hij het helemaal zelf voor het zeggen? En wat betekent de strijd om de groene trui voor de kansen van MVDP in de slotetappe van de Tour?

Et de six ! Jasper Philipsen s'offre la 6ème victoire belge de cette édition 2026 du Tour de France. Le sprinteur de chez Alpecin Premier Tech, bien emmené par Mathieu van der Poel, s'est facilement imposé sur la ligne d'arrivée à Voiron. Il vole ainsi la vedette à Jasper Stuyven qui avait tenté de partir en solitaire à 25km de l'arrivée.

Remco Evenepoel a répondu présent en ce jour de fête nationale. Le coureur belge de chez Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, triple champion du monde du contre-la-montre, s'est adjugé le seul contre-la-montre individuel de cette édition 2026 avec 28 secondes d'avance sur Tadej Pogacar.

Stefan en Laurens gaan verder. De Vogezen blijven druilerig, maar gelukkig maken de heren zich op voor de Alpen, waar ze morgen naartoe verkassen. Er staat een beuker van een rit op het peloton te wachten vandaag. Met belangen die gewijzigd zijn zal het een enerverende koers worden, met onder andere Pogacar die zijn ogen gericht zal hebben op Vingegaard als hij zijn knechten kwijt zal raken. Wat valt nog meer op? Welke spelletjes kunnen we nog meer verwachten vandaag? Hoe zit het met de hiërarchie binnen Lidl-Trek en Red Bull?En hoe zat het nou met die 18.000 hoogtemeters? Je hoort het allemaal in de Live Slow Ride Fast podcast.

Stage 13 of the 2026 Tour de France was a day for the breakaway, with the peloton content to let the move go on a relentlessly fast route that was raced at full gas from start to finish. Despite easing the pressure on the escapees, the speed never relented, making it one of the hardest-fought breakaway stages of the race so far. Tom Pidcock was once again one of the biggest animators of the day. On the stage's biggest climb, he drove the pace at the front of the breakaway, trying to distance Kevin Vauquelin, Tim Wellens and Brandon McNulty. He committed fully to the move, but left his attack just too late and couldn't shake his rivals before the finale. One of the biggest talking points came from behind the leading groups. Mads Pedersen spent a huge amount of energy riding on the front for Lidl-Trek to help bring back the second breakaway, protecting the team's position in the team classification despite wearing the green jersey and needing to save energy to retain it. We also analyse how the stage-winning move finally came together, assess the rides of the top three finishers, and look at how Pidcock's aggressive performance has moved him further up the general classification ahead of another crucial mountain stage. In the second half of the episode, David Millar shares his thoughts on the questions that continue to surround Tadej Pogačar and doping in modern cycling, offering his perspective as someone who has experienced the sport from both sides of its most controversial era. Ned Boulting and David Millar break down Stage 13 of the Tour de France 2026. ______________________________________________________________

Stefan en Laurens gaan verder. Het is de vooruitblik op de langste etappe van de Tour. Een vlakke aanloop, maar dan gaat het los met onder andere de Ballon d'Alsace. Je weet wel, de eerste berg ooit in de Tour de France. Lau legt het verschil uit tussen deze rit in vergelijking met vorige heuvelachtige ritten en qua favoriete ploeg van de dag zijn de heren het al gauw eens: grote kans dat Lidl-Trek de rit wil gaan kleuren. Een etappe waarbij je vroeg voor de pit wil gaan liggen.En hoe zat het nou met die croissantjes uit La Bresse? Je hoort het allemaal in de Live Slow Ride Fast podcast.

Stefan en Laurens gaan verder. Ze trappen af met Huub Artz, want het zat de beste man hoog. Een keurige tiende plek in de rit, maar na afloop klonk vooral één wens door: Parijs halen. De etappe zelf? Die ging naar Tim Merlier. Verrassend was dat niet, makkelijk was het ook niet. Lidl-Trek probeerde er vroeg een slijtageslag van te maken en trok de finale volledig uit elkaar. Leuk geprobeerd, maar Merlier zat geen seconde écht op de pijnbank. Toen het erop aankwam, deed hij wat hij deze Tour al vaker deed: iedereen voorbij rijden. Nu de laatste sprintetappe van de Tour 2026 achter de rug is, maken de mannen de sprintbalans op. De top 3 wordt samengesteld, en er wordt verder nagekaart en geanalyseerd. Dit, en nog veel meer.En hoe zit het nou met die grinta en de goede sfeer in de Soudal Quick-Step ploeg? Je hoort het allemaal in de Live Slow Ride Fast podcast.

Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin break down how Mathieu van der Poel won Stage 9 from a stacked breakaway, as well as UAE's odd tactics on the day, and whether Lidl-Trek could have played the day differently to deliver Mads Pedersen the stage win. They also go through Tuesday's Stage 10, another tough day in the Massif Central that could produce a GC showdown between Pogačar and Vingegaard, mirroring their battle on the same course on Stage 11 back in 2024.

Mathieu van der Poel heeft zijn kans gegrepen in de Tour de France. In een heerlijke vluchtersetappe reed hij de hele dag van voren, maakte hij bergop zelf het verschil en won hij de sprint van kop af aan. Dit was de Nederlander op zijn best. In een nieuwe aflevering van In Het Wiel heeft Niek Goedvolk het met Roxane Knetemann en wielerverslaggever Marijn Abbenhuijs over MVDP. Want als je dit kan in omstandigheden die je helemaal niet liggen, dan ben je toch gewoon in bloedvorm? Waarom dachten we in de eerste etappes dat dat niet zo was? En wat is er sindsdien veranderd? Verder bespreken we het rijden in de groep achter Van der Poel. Waarom hield UAE het verschil zo klein om later ineens volledig van de voorposten te verdwijnen? Hoe kan Ineos een top 10 plek zo vroeg in de Tour al belangrijk vinden? En had Lidl-Trek eerder de kaart Pedersen moeten trekken? Je hoort het in deze podcast.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stage 4 of the 2026 Tour de France was always expected to be a day for the breakaway, and that's exactly how it unfolded. A 34-rider move escaped early and stayed clear, setting up a fascinating tactical battle between some of the strongest breakaway riders in the race. Biniam Girmay bested rivals Jasper Philipsen and Mads Pedersen to the intermittent sprint points and then sat up. He was never interested in the stage, but Lidl-Trek were the team of the day. Mads Pedersen, Quinn Simmons and their teammates were in complete control. It was inevitable that one of them would take the stage. While Lidl-Trek celebrated the stage victory, the yellow jersey also changed hands as another rider moved into the overall race lead. Tadej Pogacar was clearly happy to allow this. Ned Boulting and David Millar breakdown the action

Send us Fan MailStage 4 of the Tour de France is the reminder every cycling fan loves and every GC team fears: one day can rewrite the race. We talk through the full Stage 4 recap from Carcassonne to Foix, including the brutal numbers, the four categorized climbs, and the oppressive 104°F heat that forces teams to rethink pacing, hydration, and risk. When conditions get that extreme, “normal” tactics break down fast, and today's choices reshape the general classification in a big way. The headline is a massive breakaway that gets real freedom. We explain why GC teams sometimes refuse to chase, what that decision signals to the peloton, and how it effectively concedes the stage to the move up the road. From there, it's a masterclass in execution: Lidl-Trek place riders perfectly, launch at the right moment, and convert the chaos into a stage win for Mads Pedersen, with Quinn Simmons adding a big moment for American fans. We also run through the jersey shakeups, including the new yellow jersey, and what the updated classifications mean for the days ahead. Then we get into one of the harshest rules in pro cycling: the Tour de France time cut. We break down how it's calculated off the winner's time and what it looks like when a rider misses it and gets pulled from the race. To top it off, we share a piece of Tour de France history that sounds unreal by today's standards, when riders had to repair their own bikes with no outside help and could even be penalized for the smallest assistance.

Stage 5 was billed as the big sprint showdown, but it played out more like a quiet day in the legs — and Alex and Max dig into whether that was fatigue, tactics, or something closer to a protest ahead of tomorrow's Tourmalet.In this episode:Why nobody wanted to make Stage 5 hard, and what that says about where the peloton's head is atThe chaotic final sprint — Alpecin and Lidl-Trek in control, then it all came undoneAstana and Cofidis punching well above their weightThe green jersey battle heating up between Pedersen, Philipsen, Girmay and a surprise name in Max KanterMeeting Marco Frigo trackside, and the Uno-X yellow jersey balancing actA first look at "the big three" — the unofficial riders' reps who help shape decisions mid-raceLast night's Hyro electrolyte winners revealed Stage 6 preview: the Tourmalet, Col d'Aspin, and a first real Pogačar vs Vingegaard testMax's own painful history on the Tourmalet — a cautionary tale about oiling your disc brakesTonight's prize: another Café du Cycliste kit up for grabs

Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin break down Mads Pedersen's impressive win from the breakaway and how his Lidl-Trek team perfectly executed their pre-race plan. They also discuss the implications of Uno-X's Torstein Træen taking the Yellow Jersey by a massive margin, what it means for the team, and how long Træen can hold onto it.

Pour cette étape sous une chaleur écrasante, les Lidl-Trek ont tout écrasé. Avec trois hommes à l'avant, ils ont impressionné. Mads Pedersen l'a finalement emporté au sprint, en prenant une grande longueur d'avance sur Kevin Vauquelin.   De son côté Tadej Pogacar a cédé son maillot jaune à Torstein Traeen. Le Norvégien de Uno-X Mobility a désormais 7'53 d'avance sur le Slovène et Vingegaard. Le débrief avec Pierre-Yves Leroux, Christophe Cessieux, Richard Virenque, Jérôme Pineau et Jérôme Coppel.

Bijna oneerlijk was het vandaag in de Tour. De drie sterkste renners uit de kopgroep reden allemaal voor dezelfde ploeg: Lidl-Trek. Mads Pedersen hoefde het alleen nog af te maken en deed dat met fietslengtes voorsprong. In deze aflevering van In Het Wiel hebben we het over die masterclass. Niek Goedvolk bespreekt het tactisch plan van Lidl-Trek met Roxane Knetemann en wielerverslaggever Marijn Abbenhuijs. Waarom wilde de ploeg per se met Pedersen winnen? Was de situatie met ploeggenoot Mathias Vacek voorop niet misschien nog beter? En we blikken uitgebreid vooruit op de eerste massasprint van deze Tour. Woensdag neemt Olav Kooij het in Pau op tegen onder meer Jasper Philipsen en Tim Merlier. Marijn en Rox leggen uit waarom de Nederlander misschien wel topfavoriet is.

Go check out our FREE Skool community, it's got amazing tools in there and a thriving community of cyclists - https://www.skool.com/roadman/aboutIn this episode, we get a rare look inside the training philosophy behind one of cycling's most explosive riders: Mads Pedersen. A former road world champion, Grand Tour stage winner, and Classics powerhouse, Mads has built a reputation for turning brutal racing into controlled chaos. His coach, Mattias Reck, head coach at Lidl-Trek and a former professional rider turned performance expert, shares insight into the structure, mindset, and details behind that success.

The biggest race in cycling is here. With just days to go until the 2026 Tour de France rolls out from Barcelona, Ned Boulting, David Millar, Lizzie Deignan and Pete Kennaugh break down everything you need to know ahead of this year's race. Can Tadej Pogačar make history with a fifth Tour de France title and join the legendary ranks of Anquetil, Merckx, Hinault and Indurain? And if he does, is there anyone in the current peloton capable of stopping him? The team dives into this year's route - from the opening team time trial in Barcelona to brutal mountain stages featuring Alpe d'Huez, the Galibier and the Tourmalet - and debates how the parcours could shape the battle for yellow. They also analyse the stacked start list: UAE's powerhouse squad, Visma's bold Giro-to-Tour strategy, Remco Evenepoel and Red Bull's options, and Lidl-Trek's hunt for stage wins. Plus, David, Lizzie and Pete share their own Tour de France experiences from wearing yellow and riding as a domestique to what it really takes to survive the biggest race in the world. And this year, For The Love Of Cycling is on the road. Ned and David will be bringing you daily post-stage episodes from across France, recording from the race itself and bringing you closer to the Tour than ever before.

The seventh stage was unpredictable, with a category 3 climb that topped out with 27 km to go. Other than the one climb, it was a flatter stage, so would Elisa Balsamo harness her Lidl-Trek teammates to control the race? Could a breakaway finally sneak in for a victory? Or would some of the GC riders who have already lost time go for it on the descent? Or...all of the above?Loren and Abby are joined by Sarah Roy to talk about the seventh stage and what's to come on Saturday.Audio diaries today include Alison Jackson (St Michel-Preference Home-Auber93), Femke de Vries (Visma-Lease a Bike), and Alexis Magner (EF Education-Oatly).

Abby, Loren, and Gracie tune in for the first stage of the Giro d'Italia, a sprint stage from Cesenatico to Ravenna. Lorena Wiebes won the stage, but it wasn't the end of the race for the Dutch champion. Drama would follow the SD Worx-Protime rider hours after she pulled on the pink jersey. A few riders commented on the technicality of the final circuit, and Gracie has some thoughts. With audio diaries from Maggie Coles-Lyster of Human Powered Health and Amanda Spratt of Lidl-Trek. 

Stage 18 of the Giro d'Italia 2026 and for the sprinters, the window is almost shut. Polti VisitMalta went on the attack again in the break. Eulalio crashed and then lit up the final climb, but Visma were composed, reeling the move in with ease. Then it came down to the sprint. Lidl-Trek were hellbent on delivering for Milan, but the positioning wasn't there. Stuyven and Magnier made it look straightforward, and before Milan could react, the door had closed. One sprint left. Rome. That's it. Ned Boulting and Jacopo Guarnieri with all the reaction and analysis from Stage 18. This episode of For The Love Of Cycling is sponsored by Bikmo cycle insurance.
