Flaming Bora

Season 11, Episode 1,   Jan 06, 2023, 10:53 AM

After our Big Predictions Pod last week, in this episode The Cycling Podcast continues to gaze into the crystal ball by taking a close look at a team that, we suspect, will continue to soar in 2023. That team is Bora-Hansgrohe, and one of the main brains behind their change of focus in recent months is head sports director Rolf Aldag, who joins Daniel Friebe for an in-depth conversation about the new, post-marginal gains age in professional cycling, how Bora-Hansgrohe are attacking it and some of the stars who could glitter in green and black in 2023.

Before that, Daniel reviews the week’s news with ace Eurosport commentator Rob Hatch, and we also cross to Scandinavia to hear how Uno-X’s invitation to the Tour de France has been celebrated there.
