Welcome to The Cycling Podcast presents Life in the Peloton with Mitch Docker.



We're delighted to welcome Mitch to the team for 2020 and ahead of the release of his first new episode on January 29 we thought we'd delve into his back catalogue to present six edited versions of some of his greatest hits.



This conversation with Mike Woods, the EF Education First climber, took place shortly after the 2018 Vuelta a España when the Canadian sealed his first grand tour stage win.



Life in the Peloton comes to The Cycling Podcast's channel in 2020 with the first 'new' episode featuring EF Education First rider Jimmy Whelan. If you've never heard Mitch's podcasts before, this is a taste of what's to come.

Rose Manley and Denny Gray of The British Continental offer up their ‘hot-takes’ on an ever explosive edition of Flèche Wallonne Feminine.



With SD Worx still smarting from a mis-step from Lorena Wiebes at the Amstel Gold Race, the team was looking for revenge at the second Ardennes race of the week, particularly with defending champion Demi Vollering in their ranks. But they’ll face a huge challenge from Lidl-Trek, buoyed by Elisa Longo Borghini’s win at Brabantse Pijl. And time is running out for Orla Chennaoui’s predicted Kasia Niewiadoma win in the Ardennes, so might it come true this time?

S12 Ep26: Flèche Wallonne 2024 | Women’s Race

In this episode of Arrivée, Daniel Friebe and Richard Abraham review a brutal edition of Flèche Wallonne, ridden in the rain and plummeting temperatures.



After his victory in Amstel Gold at the weekend, could the pre-race favourite Tom Pidcock live up to that billing and complete an historic double? Or would someone else - perhaps one of the many previous winners in the field, like Dylan Teuns or Marc Hirschi - conquer the Mur de Huy?

S12 Ep25: Flèche Wallonne 2024 | Men’s Race

In this week’s regular episode of the The Cycling Podcast, Richard Abraham and Rob Hatch join Daniel Friebe to look back on Sunday’s Amstel Gold Race - before Décathlon-AG2R Mondiale stalwart Larry Warbasse reports from his pre-Giro d’Italia altitude camp on Mount Etna.



After a challenging start to the season for INEOS Grenadiers, Tom Pidcock’s victory in Amstel on Sunday was balm for the British team’s morale and confidence. We ask whether it could also be a watershed moment in the Yorkshireman’s career - particularly with this year’s Tour de France in mind. 



Larry’s eyes and focus are set firmly on the Giro - and, in the last part of the podcast, the “Motown Maestro” reveals how he and team leader Ben O’ Connor have built towards ‘La Corsa Rosa’.

S12 Ep24: Tom, Slick…& Larry

The Cycling Podcast Féminin team are looking back over a thrilling cobbled Classics season. Rose Manley, Denny Gray and Orla Chennaoui pick out their favourite moments, hero riders and big surprises from the cobbled races this year. 



Catching the team’s attention are emotional moments for Pfeiffer Georgi and Kasia Niewiadoma, breakthrough moments for Puck Pieterse and Letizia Paternoster and heroic antics from Shirin van Anrooij and Lotte Kopecky. With so many exhilarating moments to choose from, will Rose, Denny and Orla agree on anything?



Our mini feature this month is on the women’s Ronde Van Vlaanderen which celebrated its 20th anniversary this year. With the help of journalists and riders who were there, we explore some of the stories and moments that came out of the early editions of the race. Oenone Wood, Loes Gunnewijk, Giorgia Bronzini and Marion Clignet all share their recollections of races that have been overlooked in recent history.

S12 Ep23: Cobbling Together History

 In this week’s regular episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe visits top Eurosport commentator Rob Hatch at home - or is it vice versa - and they’re joined by the now-retired cobbles maestro Mitch Docker for a considered look back at the events of the last week. 



After the usual round-up of the big stories, it’s back to last weekend and Paris-Roubaix. After the unique insight into British national champion Fred Wright’s preparation for the “Hell of the North” featured in our Arrivée episode on Sunday, there’s more of the same today. We also hear from two riders who made memories while missing the time-cut, before reflecting on Mathieu van der Poel’s latest masterclass. 



The headlines away from Roubaix were dominated, regrettably, by a horrendous crash at the Tour of the Basque Country. We wade into the safety debate while pondering what last week could mean for the Tour de France.
