The Cycling Podcast

Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie return to discuss the latest racing and news in professional cycling - this week with top TNT commentator Rob Hatch.   We discuss an intense weekend of racing, with a pair of key appetizers before the Tour of Flanders: E3 Harelbeke and Gent-Wevelgem. The two semi-Classics saw Mathieu van der Poel and Mads Pedersen in superlative form, so who, besides Tadej Pogačar, could possibly stop them in Flanders on Sunday?  Wout Van Aert’s chances are the subject of this week’s Coorevits Corner. We also look back at the Volta a Catalunya and the latest tour de force by Primož Roglič. This week’s episode ends on a sombre note as we remember our late co-founder Richard Moore, who was the subject of a special tribute in Gent-Wevelgem on Sunday.   Sponsored by Laka The Cycling Podcast’s coverage of the spring Classics is supported by Laka.
