| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to Lenton Rouge Cycling Podcast for the Visma Lisa Bike 2026 review. |
| 0:06.7 | We have World Tour Racing kicking off in two days, less than two days from the date of recording, Thursday, 15th of January, |
| 0:14.5 | with the women's tour at another on Saturday, I believe, starting. And then we're into it 10 months straight. |
| 0:20.0 | This will be the last preview. |
| 0:22.5 | Benji and I, I think we, behind the scenes, |
| 0:26.1 | this is one of the biggest things we sort of scrap about. |

| 1:22.7 | But now the Visima programs have come out. |
| 1:25.0 | And I guess the reason we did it rather than prognosticating up front was the obvious sort of annual disclaimer from me. |
| 1:32.1 | If you don't know, I work at Team Visma Lisa Black. |
| 1:34.6 | I'm the head of strategy there on the management team and I work on things like rider |
| 1:38.4 | recruitment transfers and the race planning. |
| 1:41.9 | So the scheduling of the riders with, yeah, with the rest of the management team and staff. |
