S12 Ep123: Lonely G.O.A.T

The Cycling Podcast

In this week’s episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe is on Fran Reyes’s home turf - Granada in southern Spain - and that pair is joined by Richard Abraham for another week of analysis and reflection on, yes, yet another Tadej Pogačar masterpiece, this time at the Tour of Lombardy.
The build-up to the final Monument of the season had been enlivened or overshadowed - depending on your viewpoint - by Tom Pidcock’s shock exclusion from the INEOS line-up. We examine the likely consequences of that - and the possible reasons.
It’s then time for another attempt to contextualise arguably the finest cycling season of all time by a male rider, and certainly the most extraordinary since Eddy Merckx’s ‘cannibalistic’ reign.
