Summary
Richard founded The Cycling Podcast in 2013 with Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe and with his passing we have lost our directeur sportif, team leader, road captain and super domestique deluxe all in one. But more than that, we have lost our very dear friend.
We would like to thank Seb Piquet, the voice of Radio Tour at the Tour de France, for hosting this conversation between Lionel and Daniel as they talk about their friendship with Richard and the years spent working together. Orla Chennaoui and Rose Manley, Richard's co-hosts on The Cycling Podcast Féminin, also share their memories. Other members of The Cycling Podcast's family that Richard was instrumental in building – Ciro Scognamiglio, François Thomazeau, Tom Whalley, Lizzy Banks, Kate Wagner, Mitch Docker and Brian Nygaard – also pay their tributes.
We would like to thank all our listeners, friends and colleagues who have sent messages over the past two weeks, as well as our sponsors Supersapiens, Science in Sport and MAAP for their support and understanding.
