| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to Lantern Rouge Cycling Podcast with Benji Lyson. This show is supported by |
| 0:04.6 | LeCole. They produced performance cycling apparel. It's been a long time no speak. This is an |
| 0:09.6 | emergency podcast because Mark Cavendish has just been announced in the DeCernic Quickstep roster |
| 0:16.8 | for the Tour de France. We're shocked. I mean, that also means obviously no Sam Bennett back in |
| 0:23.2 | the start of April. Benji, I think, during the after the first stage that Cavendish won this year |
| 0:29.6 | at the Presidential Cycling Tour of Turkey, Benji started the hashtag Cav to the Tour movement, |
| 0:36.1 | always serious, never tongue in cheek, and now he has made better reality. So if you believe in |
| 0:41.5 | miracles, then, well, if you believe in this podcast and you believe in miracles and let your dreams |
| 0:47.0 | be memes because Cav is going to the Tour. What's your initial reaction, Benji? It's crazy. Like, |

| 1:15.8 | is real. Memes are real. So here's Cavendish the year so far. I started out quite well actually in |
| 1:21.8 | March. He came second in the Grove Police Jean-Pierre Morserie. That was behind Tim Merlier, |
| 1:29.2 | and Merlier has been very, very strong this year, one of his heroes stage. Then Middling |
| 1:33.7 | resolves in some smaller Belgian classics, then second and a third, a Settimana copy of Artoli, |
| 1:38.8 | which, oh, it's just a second rather in the first sprint, which isn't great. Shoulder |
| 1:42.9 | praise, third, I've got some footage of that as well. That was a complete bungling from Quick |
| 1:48.4 | Tim. We'll pause there. We'll pause at Sheldor praise because that was the only occasion where |
| 1:52.6 | Cav and Ben were in the same race. And there was talk of the Pharaoh's actually thinking of |
| 1:59.2 | taking both, which I mean, how do you think that would have played out Benji? No, I think that would |
