episode 11: Strade Bianche and the Team Sky story
March 7 | In this episode of The Cycling Podcast, Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe discuss a brilliant edition of the Italian one-day race Strade Bianche before turning their attention to the publication of the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport select committee's report into doping which centred on Bradley Wiggins and Team Sky.
Strade Bianche turned out to be a three-way showdown between a talented young Belgian who was yet to win his first race as a professional, a Tour de France contender and the reigning world cyclo-cross champion.
The DCMS committee's report, and Bradley Wiggins's subsequent reaction to it, did not bring us any closer to a conclusion regarding the Wiggins case, but we attempted to look at all aspects of the story.
