episode 63: The stage race trilogy approaches
The Cycling Podcast Féminin returns just as the Women’s World Tour peloton prepares to tackle three stage races in the space of a couple of months. First up it’s the Women’s Tour in Britain, then the Giro d’Italia Donne and finally, at the end of July, the inaugural Tour de France Femmes. In this episode Rose Manley, Orla Chennaoui and Lionel Birnie look ahead to the racing.
Orla speaks to new World Hour Record holder Ellen van Dijk, who broke Joss Lowden’s distance which she set last year. How close – or far away – does the 50km barrier feel now? Lionel catches up with Lizzy Banks to discuss what’s in store for the Women’s Tour and finds it promises to be a much more dynamic battle for the general classification this year because of some tricky stages, not least the uphill finish at Black Mountain in Wales. And Rose speaks to SD Worx rider Ashleigh Moolman Pasio, who will spearhead her team’s challenge at the Women’s Tour in the absence of reigning champion Demi Vollering.
