Summary

In this episode we join Richard Moore and a good friend of the podcast in Belgium to review the Tour of Flanders, which featured a showdown between two riders whose rivalry began in cyclo-cross and are now destined to clash in the cobbled classics for years to come.

Then it’s over to Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe to recap the first serious mountain stage of the Giro d’Italia, which saw a first grand tour stage win for Tao Geoghegan Hart, while João Almeida just about hung onto the pink jersey after a brilliant effort by Team Sunweb. But the question is, who’s the favourite for the Giro title now?
