G's embracing retirement - by tackling parkrun! We know the loyal Watts Occurring listeners will enjoy hearing that story today.

There's also another Pogacar discussion, after you all reckoned G and Luke were slightly harsh last week. Can greatness ever really be boring? Because, yes, he's been winning again. Incredible.

And Luke's fresh from Paris-Tours with a great tale from inside the bunch, as ever.

We'll be back with a bumper Q&A pod next week.

This week on Watts Occurring Femmes, Emma and Manon talk about dealing with the pressures that come with being an elite athlete. They discuss some of the most high pressure moments they’ve faced in their careers and how manifesting helps them to cope.

There's clearly no guidebook for dealing with pressure - but Emma and Manon have excellent perspectives on how they've dealt with it across their respective careers. We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

And, speaking of pressure... Emma is off to the Track World Championships next week! We'll have a big preview of that next time out. See you then!

Yes, it's another week, another pod, and Tadej Pogacar has won another massive bike race. Solo. Of course he has.

This time it was the European Championships, a week on from winning the Worlds, and you do have to question: this Slovenian lad is pretty good, isn't he? Luke and G certainly think so.

There's also, of course, Luke's updated padel chat, a look ahead to Il Lombardia (yes, Pog is going for his fifth straight win and no, that's not a typo), and we have some ROUVY news.

Matty opened up on the drama behind his record breaking ride, the huge decision to switch allegiance from Australia to Great Britain, how he and Emma met, plus much, much more.

This is a fascinating chat - and there's plenty left for a second pod at some point in the future. Enjoy.

Yes, that's right: Tom Pidcock's done it. In the midst of his varied and incredibly successful career, people had begun to doubt if Tom would ever finish on a Grand Tour podium. Not anymore.

Luke and G were amongst them, but they're delighted to have a slice of humble pie on today's pod. Fair play, Tom.

Of course, Jonas Vingegaard's done the business and won another Grand Tour. How long can he stay at the top? And will second placed Joao Almeida ever win one?

Then of course, there's the all important British Gravel Champs to discuss. Did Swifty win? Well, yes - but which one? Conor or Ben? Listen to find out.

See you next week for some big worlds chat.
