This is a crowd podcast.

Just a quick word of warning before we begin from me and G.

This episode features a Dutch rider who likes to swear a lot, so it might not be suitable for our younger listeners.

Hello, I'm Garron Thomas.

And I'm Tom Fordice.

And you've just entered the Garayn Thomas Cycling Club.

Brought to you by Zwift, the indoor cycling app where fun is fast.

Welcome.

Tom, this is our penultimate episode.

Episode 19 or 20, can't believe it.

Yeah, I sort of feel simultaneously happy that we've done so many episodes, but also slightly sad, a little bit melancholy.

I know for you, when you get to Paris in the Tour de France, then generally it's a great feeling, partly because in the last two

editions that you've raced, you've been on the podium, partly also that you're about to have

a beer and a hamburger, several beers, several hamburgers. But I think if you watch the tour,

the bit when it gets to Paris, you get that same feeling.

It's sort of you're happy that the race has got there, but you're sort of sad because it's

almost over.

I've never been sad this almost over, to be honest, with the tour.

But yeah, I'm a little sad.

I'm not going to be dialing into you and Lou every so often now.

But, you know, a break is as good as a rest or whatever they say.

But it hasn't been a bad series though, has it?
