  • Pogacar & Kopecky dominate, Man V Horse and what's Pidcock's problem?

    01:04:03|
    How many times will we say Tadej Pogacar is victorious on the road in 2024 - no more - the season is over as the Slovenian blows everyone away in Lombardia. Is road racing now the battle for second or even third when he’s racing? No Tom Pidcock present - has he thrown his toys out the pram one too many times at INEOS Grenadiers?! We have a big old chat on what's not been working for the Brit and whether we'll see him in an INEOS jersey again - could even end up privateering in cyclocross?? Lotte Kopecky bounces back from a stage 5 crash in the Simac Tour to show her domination of the women's peloton, We say goodbye to Christine Majerus in Holland and to the great Grace Brown in France as she bows out of cycling, with glory in the Chrono des Nations. Africa's road championships misses it's champion from the women's race, there's a spotlight on cyclocross for all the wrong reasons... and in the age old battle of Man v Horse, Tim de Clercq comes out on top.

  • Gravel /not Gravel Worlds MVDP 'n' Vos Dutch Domination, Paris-Tours mud, Pogcar Reign-bow in Italy

    54:21|
    It’s a Dutch domination at the Gravel Worlds as Marianne Vos and Mathieu van der Poel take gold. How much gravel do you need for a gravel race and should more events take in multi-story car parks? Looking at the finish photos from Paris-Tour - should that be called a gravel race instead?! There’s deja vu at Giro dell'emilia as Tadej Pogacar takes the win with a strikingly similar attack as  Matteo Jorgensen shows he’s a once AND twice bitten sort of person.And as F1’s Valtteri Bottas swaps four wheels for two, which other sports stars should get on their bikes?Presenters: Sanny Rudravajhala @Sanny_Rudra & Katy Madgwick @WriteBikeRepeatProducer: Sanny RudravajhalaSan Pod ProductionsLet us know your thoughts #OnYerBikePod and please leave us a 5* review AND a comment - that will make a MASSIVE difference to whether other cycling fans can find us.

    01:00:23|
    Tadej Pogacar - wow. The third man ever to win the Giro, Tour de France and World title in the same year, as if you didn't already know! We look back at a mad 100km solo in the men's race. We reflect on Demi Vollering choosing violence that ultimately opened the door for Lotte Kopecky to defend her title and we bring you the para cycling headlines as the Netherlands top the table but GB's Dame Sarah Storey is just one of the show-stealers.

Pogacar's going for the triple crown, can Mathieu van der Poel stop him? Where's Lotte Kopecky at in her quest to defend her crown and which of at least three Dutchwomen will be taking her on?! And speaking of doubles by the way, what about 18-year-old Cat Ferguson - we shine a light on a star in the making winning TT and RR world gold.Presenters: Sanny Rudravajhala @Sanny_Rudra & Katy Madgwick @WriteBikeRepeatProducer: Sanny RudravajhalaSan Pod ProductionsLet us know your thoughts #OnYerBikePod and please leave us a 5* review AND a comment - that will make a MASSIVE difference to whether other cycling fans can find us.
