Journey back to the height of summer and the Grand DĂ©part in Florence with our Tour de France team of Mitch Docker, Richard Abraham and Graham Willgoss. They were there to witness Tadej PogaÄarâs domination, a record-breaking 35th stage win for Mark Cavendish, and a historic trio of stage wins for green jersey winner Biniam Girmay. They also endured the horror of âthe kebab shop hotelâ, soaked up the sights, sounds and flavours of France, and almost ran out of gas before the Tour concluded in Nice.

Relive some of the highlights of the first Grand Tour of the season, the Giro dâItalia, with this compilation of some of our best moments from Italy in May. Daniel Friebe and Brian Nygaard were your guides, Tadej PogaÄar the race winner and dominator. Along the way, an eclectic cast of characters also made memorable contributions - from Ciro Scognamiglio to Larry Warbasse, a professional truffle to Carlo Ancelottiâs childhood best friend.

Itâs beginning to look a lot like⊠a bumper Christmas episode from The Cycling Podcast FĂ©minin. In the true style of an old Christmas TV special, this episode has a bit of everything: chat, music, cameos from a few familiar voices and of course the feared and revered Christmas quiz.
First up, Rose Manley, Denny Gray and Rebecca Charlton pull out their favourite moments from an exhilarating and sometimes contentious year of cycling. The hosts are spoilt for choice in a season which saw the closest ever finish to a Tour de France, an Olympic road race which came down to the final kilometre and a Classics season which saw the spoils divided among comeback queens and breakthrough stars. Add to that more than a few moments of team in-fighting playing out on the road and the result is one of the best racing seasons in memory.
Then Denny and Rebecca go head-to-head as we look to crown our 2024 Christmas quiz champion. Thereâs a brand new round this year - the 'Whatâs That Sound?' round to add to returning favourites 'Blankety Crank' and 'Cryptic Criterium'. And it wouldnât be our Christmas quiz without some squabbling, upset and a deterioration in professionalism from all involved.
Also on the agenda: Mastermind board games, the Tour de Wandsworth and a Juliette Labous cocktail.

For the penultimate instalment of our Review of 2024 series, we reprise and re-iterate on one of the most popular episodes of 2023, a long & very in-depth interview with Redbull-Bora-Hansgrohe Head Sports Director Rolf Aldag.
The venue is again Mallorca, the occasion is again the teamâs first training camp of the winter, & once again posing the questions is Daniel Friebe. Last year, Aldag was looking ahead to Primoz RogliÄâs first season with the team - & precisely that is the main topic of conversation here, with RogliÄâs huge disappointment at the Tour de France & season-ending triumph at the Vuelta a España.

On the eve of Time Magazine naming its âPerson of the Yearâ for 2024, we offer absolutely no surprises by naming Tadej PogaÄar our man of the year just past.
âPogâ has been briefing the media on what to expect from him in 2025 - and Fran Reyes has been on the ground in Spain taking notes. In this episode, Fran tells Daniel Friebe and Richard Abraham what heâs heard from the Slovenian and some of those who either masterminded or assisted his all-conquering season.
Before all of that, we also discuss the two main news headlines of the week: Patrick Lefevere leaving his CEO position at Soudal-Quick Step and Tom Pidcock signing for Q36.5.

The Cycling Podcastâs kicked off 2024 in time-honoured fashion with our Speculation Episode - a chance for us and illustrious voices in the world of procycling to foretell the story of the approaching season.
Did we get everything or indeed anything right? Now, with the year drawing to a close, the three co-hosts for that first episode of the year - Daniel Friebe, Rob Hatch and Larry Warbasse - reconvene to reality-check what they and others said would happen in the season just gone.
Who could see a Pog triple crown written in the stars? Who didnât think Mark Cavendish would take his 35th Tour de France stage win? And what other egg are we left licking off our faces, at the end of an at times eminently predictable, at times highly surprising campaign?

Itâs a bumper transfer special on The Cycling Podcast FĂ©minin this month. In what is proving to be one of the busiest and most significant transfer markets in recent memory, Rose Manley, Denny Gray and Orla Chennaoui discuss all the major moves.
With so many of the pelotonâs biggest champions making the switch, we pick out which transfers excite us and surprise us the most. Weâll be discussing the comebacks of former world champions Anna van der Breggen and Pauline Ferrand Prevot in detail as well as looking at the consequences of moves by the likes of Elisa Longo Borghini, Niamh Fisher-Black, Juliette Labous, Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig and of course Demi Vollering.
Our mini feature takes us back to the Tour de France Femmes where Rose and Denny explored why the Dutch always dominated the womenâs road racing scene. We speak to Team SD Worxâs Lorena Wiebes and Mischa Bredewold and former pro Iris Slappendel, and get an outside perspective from British riders Lizzie Deignan and Becky Storrie.
Also on the agenda, we ask what would your grandma rather eat: a mint chocolate selection box or a chocolate orange?

Daniel Friebe is joined by one still relatively new retiree, Joe Dombrowski, and a rider who is very much still an active member of the pro peloton, Larry Warbasse, as we reflect on the achievements and legacies of Mark Cavendish, Thomas De Gendt and others.

We continue our review of the menâs 2024 professional season, this week focussing on the riders, teams and trends that had a year to forget.
After Danielâs controversial suggestion last week that it was in fact such a bad year that it was a good one for INEOS Grenadiers, who will come under the spotlight this time around? Rob Hatch has at least one nomination for a team that fared worse than the Brits - while Richard Abraham is blowing raspberries at the whole, once great cycling nation of France after its lacklustre few months.
Cofidis certainly didnât wow anyone in 2024 - and we hear from one of their departing riders, Harrison Wood, about why it became an annus horribilis for that team.

On this monthâs episode of FĂ©minin, Orla Chennaoui joins Rose Manley and Denny Gray to look ahead to the Tour de France Femmes 2025. With the route announced by race organisers ASO last week, we offer up our thoughts and predictions on what should be a gripping nine days of racing.
We can also finally discuss one of the biggest transfers in womenâs cycling. After months of speculation (and some acrimony), Demi Vollering has officially confirmed that she will be moving to FDJ-Suez on a two year contract. But with French GC hopefuls Juliette Labous and Evita Muzic already there, we explore whether FDJâs co-leadership tactics are going to pay off.
Plus following the recent UCI Gravel World Championships won by Marianne Vos, this monthâs mini feature is on the rapid rise of gravel racing. We hear from 2023 Gravel World Champion Kasia Niewiadoma and British gravel racer Danni Shrosbree about why more and more road racers are taking on the discipline. -
In this weekâs episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe is joined by Rob Hatch and Richard Abraham, as we kick off our series of 2024 season review episodes.
This year the boysâ task was simple: come up with a list of riders, teams, trends and concepts for whom 2024 was a memorable year, preferably without dwelling too much on the exploits of a certain Slovenian. The nominations were whimsical, surprising and in some cases provocative.

In this weekâs episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe is on Fran Reyesâs home turf - Granada in southern Spain - and that pair is joined by Richard Abraham for another week of analysis and reflection on, yes, yet another Tadej PogaÄar masterpiece, this time at the Tour of Lombardy.
The build-up to the final Monument of the season had been enlivened or overshadowed - depending on your viewpoint - by Tom Pidcockâs shock exclusion from the INEOS line-up. We examine the likely consequences of that - and the possible reasons.
Itâs then time for another attempt to contextualise arguably the finest cycling season of all time by a male rider, and certainly the most extraordinary since Eddy Merckxâs âcannibalisticâ reign.

No surprise, it was the newly crowned world champion, Tadej PogaÄar, who would bring home the, er, oversized bacon-like sausage - quite literally as a large lump of the stuff was among his prizes.
We discuss that, look forward to Saturdayâs Il Lombardia & also hear from Taco van der Hoorn about his remarkable comeback victory at the Betcity Elfstedenrace last week.

The build-up to the rainbow jersey showdown had been soured by the news of Swiss rider Muriel Furrerâs death after her crash in the junior womenâs road race on Thursday. We start by paying tribute to Furrer and imagining what could be some of the learnings from the tragedy.
We then dissect Tadej PogaÄar latest, superlative-defying performance on Sunday, examine some of those no-longer outlandish comparisons with Eddy Merckx and ponder what may be Pogâs next major goals.

Join Rose Manley and Jo Rowsell as they discuss a thrilling Womenâs Elite World Championships Road Race which took place over a punchy 154 kilometres, finishing in Zurich.
With an inter-team rivalry at SD Worx that has been building all year, the race was expected to be a showdown between defending World Champion Lotte Kopecky and all-conquering Demi Vollering. But also lining up were Tour de France Femmes champion Kasia Niewiadoma and Giro dâItalia champion Elisa Longo Borghini who come to the race with renewed confidence this year. Young stars like Puck Pieterse and Neve Bradbury also had the chance to prove themselves with a World Champion U23 title on the line in the same race. With the rainbow bands at stake, who will reign supreme?

In this weekâs episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe is joined by Richard Abraham & Eurosport commentator Rob Hatch, as we look back at the World TT champs last Sunday and ahead to the menâs elite road race at the weekend.
Remco Evenepoelâs victory sealed an historic Olympic-Worlds TT doubleâŠbut the Belgian could yet achieve an even unlikelier feat if he adds Sundayâs road race title to the gold medal he earned in Paris in August. Tadej PogaÄar nonetheless remains the favourite - and a first world title for him at the weekend would complete a remarkable sequence of his own: the same Giro-Tour-Worlds âTriple Crownâ that only Eddy Merckx and Stephen Roche have achieved before in menâs cycling.
The British team will hope that neither Pog nor Remco leaves ZĂŒrich with the (RR) rainbow jersey - and their head coach, Matt Brammeier, tells us what to expect on Sunday from the likes of Pidcock, the Yates brothers and Stephen Williams.

The Cycling Podcast FĂ©minin is back! Returning for the first time since the Tour de France Femmes, Rose Manley and Denny Gray are this month joined by double Olympic gold medallist Jo Rowsell.
We look back at the Tour de Romandie where Team SD Worx's Lotte Kopecky dramatically took the overall win at the expense of usual stage racing leader Demi Vollering, doing nothing to quell rumours of a shift at the team. We dig into some of the transfer speculation that has been rife among the womenâs peloton and we look ahead to the World Championships at the end of September, picking out our top contenders for the relentlessly punchy parcours.
Our mini feature this month is on riders who grew up far from the traditional cycling heartlands. Kim Le Court of Mauritius, Antri Christoforou of Cyprus and Catalina Soto of Chile reveal their journeys to the professional ranks and what it is like to line up at most races as the sole representative for their nations.
Plus Jo faces the big question on everybodyâs lips: is Belgium a cheese country?
