Summary

Geraint sits down with his team-mate Dylan van Baarle before he leaves INEOS and moves to ‘the dark side’ at Jumbo-Visma. We do a deep dive into Dylan's 2022 Paris-Roubaix win including losing his front brake, attacking with 19km to go and Dave Brailsford's celebrations. Plus, G has a lucky escape from the Police in Monaco, and Tom encourages the two of them to keep in touch!
