As part of of our build-up to the Tour de France, this episode of KM0 from the Friends of the Podcast feed is available for all for a limited time.
This is one of the most whimsical episodes of KM0 we've ever made. It was recorded on the second rest day during the 2017 Tour de France in the style of the old British TV show Juke Box Jury.
François Thomazeau took Lionel Birnie and Richard Moore on a musical journey to discover music inspired by the Tour de France. Over a pre-dinner drink or two, they assessed the musical offerings of artists such as Les Freres Jacques, Alex Marco and former professional rider Jean-François Bernard and decided they ranged from the quirky to the weird, the catchy to the downright diabolical.

This episode of KM0 from the Friends of the Podcast feed is available for all for a limited time.
As we count down to the start of the Tour de France on Saturday, we’re releasing episodes new and vintage throughout the week.
First up, to mark the tenth anniversary of the creation of our spin-off show we’re adding the very first episode of KM0 to our free feed.
Join Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe in the car as they approach Utrecht, venue for the 2015 Grand Départ.

S13 Ep69: The One And Onley
Join Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss for the final instalment of their pre-Tour de France 'attitude camp'. In this episode they recap the final major preparation race, the Tour de Suisse where UAE Team Emirates – who else? – took the overall honours.
But while João Almeida's overall victory had a feeling of inevitability about it as soon as he reached the midway checkpoint in the final time trial, the week was perhaps more revealing about the two riders who joined him on the podium.
We hear from third-placed Oscar Onley, who won a stage and put together the best stage race performance of his career as he prepares to head to the Tour for Picnic Post NL. And we discuss Kevin Vauquelin's credentials as a potential star for the home nation at the Tour. He won a stage during the opening weekend in Italy last week and he very nearly delivered a huge result for an Arkea-B&B Hotels team that has been struggling in the World Tour this season.
There's a recap of the other races, including two events on the calendar in Copenhagen and Andorra, a brush with the UCI rules and analysis of Tadej Pogačar's foray into the world of children's books with his partner Urška Žigart.
Next up – our XL Tour de France Preview episode will be out in the middle of next week.

S13 Ep68: Things That Make You Say Ooh!
They may not have made it to their Swiss chalet, but spirits are still high on this month’s Cycling Podcast Féminin as the team tackle several weeks of lively racing. Rose Manley, Denny Gray and Rebecca Charlton set themselves the challenge of picking out some moments that made them say “Ooh!” from the Tour of Britain Women and the Tour de Suisse, which is no easy task after a number of memorable moments and breakthrough performances.
Plus this month’s mini feature offers up a sneak preview of an upcoming Friends of the Podcast special. Four time British national champion Lisa Brambani sits down with The Cycling Podcast producer Tom Whalley to talk about the first ever women’s Giro in 1988. Brambani offers some rare detail as she battled convent dormitories and cold water showers as well as the race itself, all diligently recorded in her diary.
We also look ahead to this year’s Giro d’Italia and explore the punchy eight stage course which includes three summit finishes.
Also on the agenda, Denny’s imaginary Toblerone-inventing grandfather, Rebecca’s 90s hip hop karaoke and a thousand ways of saying “ooh!”.
