This week, double Olympic gold medallist and nine-times world champion Victoria Pendleton joins the podcast to discuss what inspired her to write her new personal development book ‘The Fear Opportunity’, as well as her complicated relationship with cycling, and why she’s proud to have helped pave the way for both the current mega-successful crop of British female track sprinters and the much-changed culture and environment they compete within.

Have we reached the peak of the Pogačar era? That’s the question posed on this week’s episode, following the world champion’s epic crash-maybe break bike-chase-attack-attack again-outsprint Tom Pidcock victory at Milan-Sanremo, a race that was for so long Tadej’s kryptonite.

We’ll be soaking up the unique atmosphere, sounds, and culture of the best period of the entire cycling year, in one of the sport’s true heartlands, where bike racing seeps into everyday life, and (hopefully) giving you some behind-the-scenes insight into the classics and their stars – starting with Opening Weekend, where holy places were visited, unholy amounts of beers were consumed, and where new saviours were born.
