You're listening to El Classico, the cycling podcast at the 2023 Vuelta España from Barcelona

to Madrid.

Today we are in Bayadolid.

We're indeed listening to El Classico, my name is Daniel Freiber and I'm the host of this episode.

And I am in Bayadolid where in the early evening of September 16, 1965 around 300,000 locals

reportedly witnessed a flying saucer soaring above the city, making it one of the most notable incidents in the history of Spanish ufology.

And we're late this afternoon. We saw an identified flying object in white, red and green tearing through city streets

here to reveal the identity of said rocket ship and review all the other action on today's tenth stage.

The individual time trial is the cycling podcast own answer to Buzz Lightyear or Buzz Aldrin.

It's Lionel Bernie.

I wondered where that was going. Hello Daniel, you made it.

You made it to Bayadolid. No problem.

Five hour drive went without a hitch.

Didn't have to kind of slow down and then go round again like one of the lanes that the riders were on.

Tell us a little bit about the transfer.

Oh, that reminds me.

The transfer.

Well, first of all, first of all, my transfer was pretty uneventful.

Probably had too many, a few too many stops rather overindulged in the Repsol.

That's the main chain of fuel stations in Spain overindulged in the stops at Repsol garages.

Otherwise, it was pretty uneventful Lionel.

There was a bit of evidence of the damage around Madrid that we'd heard and read about.
