You're listening to the cycling podcast Feminna.

Well, hello and welcome to the cycling podcast Feminand and happy new year, if that's still in any way appropriate to say at this, where we're kind of nudging on to February now.

My name is Rose Manley.

And yes, we return for another fantastic season of women's racing.

And I am, as always, joined by Denny Gray of the

British Continental. Hello Denny. Hello Rose. How are you doing? I'm very well. I'm just wondering,

I'm glad that you're back, Denny, because after that bit of furority wasn't there at the end of

in December on our Christmas quiz episode. And I wasn't sure that you were ever going to come back on the podcast after what was quite a controversial quiz finish, wasn't it?

It was.

I mean, I wouldn't say I'd completely over it, Rose.

No, I didn't think you were.

I probably won't be for some time.

No.

No.

I did manage to have a lovely Christmas, but at the back of my mind, that damning defeat, the result, I mean, that result was just a travesty really, wasn't it?

Well, it was more of a travesty than we realised because after we'd finished recording and we left the pub, we suddenly realised that I just done the maths wrong.

And actually, you should have still probably won.

But anyway, we'll put

that aside for now, particularly as we're joined by former Olympic champ, Joe Rousel, lovely to

have you back, Joe. Thank you for having me back. Very nice to join you again. And I'm glad that you're,

you know, not that we've got rid of Rebecca Charlton because of that, you know, the awkward Christmas quiz. We obviously lovely to have you back, Joe. And you've got some lovely news I'm hoping you're going to share with all the podcast listeners. So expecting a baby last week of April. And it's funny because last time I saw you, Rose, you were very, very close to your due date.

Yes.
