In this week’s episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe is joined by Larry Warbasse of Décathlon-AG2r La Mondiale and journalist Richard Abraham, as we review the action from a soggy Giro dell’Emilia last weekend in Bologna - home of the cured meat known there as ‘mortadella’ & in the USA as, ahem, baloney.

No surprise, it was the newly crowned world champion, Tadej Pogačar, who would bring home the, er, oversized bacon-like sausage - quite literally as a large lump of the stuff was among his prizes. 

We discuss that, look forward to Saturday’s Il Lombardia & also hear from Taco van der Hoorn about his remarkable comeback victory at the Betcity Elfstedenrace last week.
