And if you need something to listen to while hitting the roads in Rouvy, well, this week's pod is an absolute classic.
Victor Campenaerts had one of the stories of the summer - a father for the first time amidst a nine-week(!) altitude camp, and then his first-ever Tour de France stage win. Years don't come much more dramatic.
Everyone's favourite Belgian (after De Pluski, of course) joined G and Tom to chat about that and plenty more besides.
Meanwhile G's been in Miami, but he tells Tom that pre-season starts now. We shall we.
Enjoy - and see you next week.

Yes, that's right - the GTCC is back! And we are back with a double bang. Not only are we welcoming American superstar Matteo Jorgenson to the show, we have welcomed a new training partner to the GTCC - Rouvy!
We have our very first GTCC Rouvy club ride coming up over the next couple of weeks but, before then, you can go and check out the platform with a free month's trial.

G and Tom are very excited to be back on club duty and Matteo was a brilliant first guest for season five.
Fresh from joining Team Visma-Lease a Bike at the start of 2024, Matteo has gone from strength-to-strength, winning Paris-Nice, Dwars-door-Vlaanderen, and riding to a remarkably consistent string of results across the year.
Enjoy - and see you next week.

Before we get started with GTCC season five, we wanted to introduce you to a new podcast: Everything To Play For.
Hosted by self-confessed sports geeks Colin Murray and Elis James, Everything To Play For brings you the juiciest tales from the world of sports – think epic rivalries, scrappy underdogs, and the wildest comebacks and you’re in the right ball park.
Thought you knew the story? Think again.
Today we're bringing you their first episode about our old friend and the legend that is Mark Cavendish.
Of course, you all know he is the man with the most Tour de France stage wins to his name; but what else do you know about Cav?
Let Colin and Elis fill in the gaps.
To hear the second episode, visit Everything To Play For's feed.

TWO WEEKS TO GO! It's so nearly time for Watts Occurring Live. It's going to be the night of the year; we promise. Come and see Luke and G at the Lowry Theatre in Salford on Friday November 8th. The last tickets are available here: https://premier.ticketek.co.uk/shows/show.aspx?sh=GERAINT24
Tadej Pogacar has had the season to end all seasons. But it was truly complete until he'd walked home with a couple of Watts Occurring awards? We'll let you be the judge of that.
Yes, the boys are back for the final Watts Occurring of the year and, of course, it's our annual awards show.
Rider of the Year, Win of the Year, Team of the Year, Race of the Year... the list goes on and on.
And yes, that is our last Watts of 2024. Thanks to every single listener who's joined the ride.
Next week? The GTCC is back. Get ready.

Did you watch Lombardia this weekend? And were you surprised by the result? No, of course you weren't. It was an absolute clinic from Pogi yet again, and capped what could just be the finest season the sport has ever seen.
Luke and G reckon he might have to be a bit more like Maximus Decimus Meridius if he wants to keep his popularity next season (you'll have to listen to understand that one... but we doubt he'll care either way). What a weapon.
There's plenty for the boys to catch up on - and we'll be back for the final Watts Occurring of the year next week, with our Annual Awards Show.
See you then.

Did you catch the Gravel World Championships this weekend? It was a cracking race, won by the multi-disciplinary weapon that is Mathieu van der Poel.
The British gravel champ Connor Swift battled to a very impressive sixth in amongst the Belgian mafia - and as an INEOS Grenadier, the boys thought it was time to get him on the pod to learn all about the inner workings of a major gravel race. Is G tempted to give it a bash, as Connor's wingman?! With a bit of peer pressure, we think it could happen...
We loved having Connor on the pod - and realised we should have done this years ago. Ledge.
And, as you'll have heard at the start of the pod, Luke will be on stage at Rouleur Live this November, on Friday 15th - and we've got a cheeky 10% off tickets for Watts Occurring listeners. Use code Watts10 at rouleur.cc/collections/rouleur-live-tickets.
We'll be back next week with a big Lombardia review. See you then.

Have you got your tickets for Watts Occurring Live yet? Come for a night out with Luke and G at the Lowry Theatre in Salford. Tickets are still available here: https://premier.ticketek.co.uk/shows/show.aspx?sh=GERAINT24
We've been teasing this one for a while - but Luke is finally ready to announce what he's doing in 2025!
He'll be staying in cycling - and don't worry, the pod's not going anywhere!
We can't wait to see him embracing his new role next season.
We'll be back later in the week for our weekly Watts.

This week's Watts Occurring is dedicated to Muriel Furrer.
Last week we welcomed Remco Evenepoel to the show, and this week we welcomed another weapon - Britain's newest breakout star, Cat Ferguson.
Winner of the women's world junior road race and time trial in Zurich last week, she has the cycling world at her feet.
Luke and G loved getting to know the lass from Yorkshire - and we're sure you will too.
Cat is turning pro with Movistar next season and we will 100% be checking back in with her.

Last week we promised we'd be back with a big star to preview the worlds road race and, well, we think we've delivered. Ambassador De Plus roped in his compatriot Remco Evenepoel - fresh from winning the Worlds TT - and the pair gave G a call from the Belgian team hotel.
The little b*stard was on great form - as, of course, was the Carrot of Ninove. G quizzed them on tactics, rivals, and the tough route that awaits them on Sunday.
We can't wait to see how it all unfolds.

Have you got your tickets for Watts Occurring Live yet? There's less than two months until G and Luke hit the stage at the Lowry Theatre in Salford. Tickets are still available here: https://premier.ticketek.co.uk/shows/show.aspx?sh=GERAINT24
Pog's been winning bike races in Canada, Wout van Aert's signed a lifetime contract with Visma-Lease a Bike, and G's been out training for six hours. That's plenty of material to kick off a pod with.
And, to make it all the sweeter, the boys were actually in the same room together for the record. That doesn't happen very often.
There's also a Worlds TT to preview and we'll be back next week with an as yet unnamed star guest to preview the road race, We're all ears for your suggestions.
