0:00.0	Welcome back to the Legend Rouge Cycling Podcast, the recap of stage 8 of the Jura de Talia from
0:04.3	Gileanova to Castor Ramondo.
0:07.5	The name Castor Ramondo seems familiar to me.
0:11.5	Some hilly racing might have happened there in Tereo Adriatico.
0:14.5	Certainly the middle climber this stage has been in Toreno Adriatico.

1:28.2	as a follow-up of that, if I recall correctly. But anyway, we are going off course, my friend.
