| 0:00.0 | The Cycling Podcast, powered by SuperSapiens. Energy management for committed athletes and coaches. |
| 0:18.0 | Hello and joining you from a cold, fiercely cold Berlin, Baltic feeling Berlin. |
| 0:28.0 | Today on the 519th birthday of Nostradamus, my name is Daniel Frieber and I'm the host of this week's |
| 0:34.0 | episode of the Cycling Podcast in which we'll be looking not into the future as our |
| 0:38.0 | nostril used to. But into the recent past, that is to say the cycling season just gone over |
| 0:44.0 | the last few weeks we've elected our ride of the year. We've had our comeback of the |
| 0:48.0 | year last week and this week we're going to be focusing on our men's team of the year, |
| 0:52.0 | although incidentally they do have a women's team. Anyway, more of that later in what |
| 0:58.0 | threatens to be another long, very long episode, in fact, sorry to the producers. |
| 1:04.0 | And but first, I'm going to introduce my guest for the first part of the show joining me |
| 1:08.0 | today, not from Brandon Berg, but the Bally addicts. In fact, the no doubt still sunk his |
| 1:13.0 | town of Sawyer in the tramontana mountains. It's a man who has unjustified a claim for his |
| 1:19.0 | commentary not only on cycling, but sports as diverse as golf and volleyball. Indeed, as his |
| 1:25.0 | former flatmate, I can tell you that he's been known to apply his commentary skills even to me, |
| 1:29.0 | trying to cook him a risotto once memorably lamenting, oh no, oh no, when he saw me adding the |
| 1:35.0 | vegetable stock and thereafter declaring, it's all right, man, I'll just have bread. That wasn't, |
| 1:41.0 | that wasn't just one stage to have him regularly. No, he is no epicurion, but he is polymath. |
| 1:47.0 | And the second most illustrious native of Ackrington, after the second seer slash clairvoyant |
| 1:53.0 | to get a mention in this week's pod, that is Mystic Meg. But the guest, I guess this week, |
| 1:57.0 | is televisions Rob Hatch. How are you Rob? You're not too well. I know this. |
| 2:01.0 | I hope Nostradamus can predict when I'm going to get better. If not after, go for Mystic Meg, |
| 2:07.0 | because yeah, I've kind of it fed up of what is it, all soothers, all that rubbish, but we'll get there. |
