Summary

The Vuelta a España resumed on Tuesday and Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and François Thomazeau discuss an exciting stage won by the Canadian Mike Woods of EF Pro Cycling.

We also hear from Woods as he is driven from the finish to the team hotel, and he tells us how he managed to outfox Alejandro Valverde and his other breakaway companions.

There's an interview with Harry Tanfield, making his Grand Tour debut at the Vuelta, and we look back on the Giro d'Italia, won by Tao Geoghegan Hart, with Ciro Scognamiglio of Gazzetta dello Sport.
