• S13 Ep37: Storerčar

  Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie are your guides through the latest headlines and talking points from the world of pro cycling, this week assisted by Tudor Pro Cycling ace Larry Warbasse, fresh from his successful week at the Tour of the Alps.  We look back at the latest Tadej Pogačar tour de force at Liège-Bastogne-Liège and invite Larry to speculate about the rest of Pogačar’s season. There’s also a trip to Coorevits Corner, where Remco Evenepoel’s underwhelming performance in La Doyenne gives Hugo food for thought.  In the final part of the episode, Larry takes us inside Michael Storer’s masterful performance at the Tour of the Alps. We also ask: how far can ‘Storerčar’ go at the Giro?  Sponsored by Laka The Cycling Podcast’s coverage of the spring Classics is supported by Laka.

• S13 Ep36: Arrivée | Liège-Bastogne-Liège women

  Rose Manley and Rebecca Charlton dissect the final Classic of the 2025 Spring season, Liège-Bastogne-Liège.  With the first two Ardennes Classics - Amstel Gold Race and Flèche Wallonne - going to unexpected winners, all of the big contenders were looking for the victory in Liège. Puck Pieterse arrived looking to get her second win of the week, whilst Demi Vollering was hunting her first victory since Strade Bianche in March. Plus Anna van der Breggen returns from illness, looking to become the most decorated winner of the race having been victorious twice before. But with the stage racing season upon us, every rider will be vying for their last chance for a precious Spring Classics win.

• S13 Ep34: Arrivée | Flèche Wallonne women

  Join Rose Manley and Denny Gray as they pick apart all the action from this year’s Flèche Wallonne Féminine. After a surprise result for a late breakaway at Amstel Gold Race, everything was to play for at the second race of the Ardennes Classics. Despite a much-hyped expected comeback to the race, seven time winner Anna Van der Breggen didn’t take to the startline after suffering from illness last week. But with defending champion Kasia Niewiadoma and 2023 champion Demi Vollering already proving to be in top form this season, the race was set to be fiercely contested. Or could a new champion be announced at the top of the infamous Mur de Huy? Sponsored by Laka The Cycling Podcast’s coverage of the spring Classics is supported by Laka.

• S13 Ep33: Arrivée | Flèche Wallonne men

  Join Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie for their post-race analysis following the best three minutes of the cycling season (that takes place on a Wednesday afternoon, in spring, in Wallonia). Yes, it’s the annual uphill cheeseroll competition (copyright Friebos). But just how far can we stretch the cheese analogies? What would win? A giant Camembert or 30 Mini Babybels? And what has New Year’s Eve in New York got to do with anything? There’s serious tactical discussion and lots of nonsensical talk about sunglasses too. You wouldn’t expect anything else.
