Larry Warbasse and Conor Dunne were all set to ride the 2018 Ovo Tour of Britain until their team, Aqua Blue Sport, folded around them. Undeterred, the pair have set off on their own NoGo Tour, a freewheeling bikepacking trip around the cols and climbs of France and Italy. Larry talks through the trip with presenter Ian Parkinson, and sheds light on the precarious career prospects of a pro cyclist. Mark McNally of Wanty- Groupe Gobert reflects on his ten Tours of Britain and Pippa York looks back nearly 30 years to her victory in the Kellogg's Tour. Flemish legend Kenny Van Vlaminck is back with new sponsors, new nutrition suggestions and a new line in poetry. If you're looking for more sensible thoughts on cycling diets, Brian Holm has them, and Stu Clapp talks cyclo-cross and the shortness of Assos shorts. If you're a fan of Kenny, and someone must be, make sure you stay listening right until the end.
