Brad and Graham Willgoss chew over Stage 10 of the Tour de France – and another brilliant win for Mark Cavendish. 

“It was textbook,” says Brad. “They’ve got it down to a T now… The team were amazing with him… He sounded in a right hole on the rest day. The fastest man in the world again? I don’t think there’s a single person in the peloton who’s not delighted for him.”

Elsewhere, Brad reacts to his first day being back on a motorbike following the race for Eurosport. 

“It’s so exhilarating being in that peloton,” says Brad. “And the closest thing I’ll have to bring back in the peloton. I love it.”

The pair also talk about how being part of the race makes Brad think about his own Tour de France success nearly 10 days on: 

“You watch them do it now and I’m in such awe of what they do. If you’re away from something for long enough, you sort of question and wonder: ‘How’d I do that?’ Because – and I’ve said it many times – you’re a different person. 

“And that gets enforced every year that goes past as you settle into normal life and you forget very quickly the sacrifice it takes to get to the top and be at that level, the likes of G… it’s savage. And you see it first hand from the bike – just how hard it is. And you saw that today.”
