Watching when no views are yet recorded, released 36 seconds ago 😂 Always a great listen!
i think TDF, Giro, Vuelta should start looking at a 2 week race . Maybe not immediately. But def. 5 years down the road
Without VDP, Phillipsen does not win many stages.
Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio crashed in early June at Volta a Catalunya Femenina, where she broke her T10 vertebrae. She has been recovering and is back in the peloton.
I don't understand what's going on at SD workx with Vollering, like has she pissed off half the team or something? Even on races when she's clearly the strongest rider they don't seem to work as a team , I really hope Lotte not being there means that we'll see them support Demi.
Cool feature from join cycling, periods make such a huge difference to performance and yet there's not really much info out there at normal person level about how workouts/efforts can and should change. Like I know I'd perform worse but I was never sure how much worse and for how many days I was impacted.
I remember Paula Radcliffe saying that she used to shift her period a few months in advance of a big marathon so they didn't coincide, because she didn't perform as well when she was on the pill or on her period, but it's still not discussed much.
Best coverage of women’s cycling. You knuckleheads deserve a huge thank you from those of us who love to watch & follow women’s cycle racing.
Benji bro write your picks down next time, you „forget“ it every preview pod 😂
Why is it only 8 stages? Why not 21 like the real tdf
Balsamo is not doing the Tour
What happened to Cadzow and the EF riders at the Giro. They all dropped out and blamed the heat. Let's hope they are ready.
The TDF femmes needed to be one week later to get a better field.
Liv Jayco Alula continue their theme of not sending their best riders to the best races. Can you believe Paternoster will not ride a GT in 2024.
Thanks for the in-depth preview! Look forward to seeing what Puck does. I know Vollering is the strong favorite, but I don't want to see SD Worx dominate.
On stage 7, the second last climb starts with a nasty little kicker followed by a bit of flat then a long drag to the top. I would expect tailwind in the afternoon so shit could start their easily. Vollering did recon the last part of that stage I think
Patrick thinking Americans take holidays is the most hilarious, heartbreaking thing I have ever heard! We get two weeks of vacation time per year, this country is cooked 😉
Ella Wyllie was on the startlist until a few days ago, haven't seen anything explaining why she was removed.
A tour de France where less than half of it is in France 🙃
Is Mavi Garcia racing?
Thanks guys, great insight as ever – I realise I coukd have done more myself, but you have almost single- (double-?)handedly brought women's cycling to an interest level consistent with the mens' for me 👌👍
10:21 lololol Americans don't take holidays – we work ourselves to death and that's the way our employers like it!
So excited and I've way too many favorite riders!
Not kidding, since I'm already an elder female athlete who's fought my whole life in America to not be treated like a small man, I can't wait for my next life so I can be born in BE, train properly with adaptive Join Cycling, and be the next great CX/MTB/RR star 🎉
Liane Lippert, Stage 6 winner 🔒 🤝
Americans don't take holidays lol
As a European i am entering my last month of vacation😅
