Amstel Gold Ace

Season 11, Episode 29,   Apr 17, 2023, 08:05 PM

In this episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie review the action from the first of the Limburg-Ardennes troika of Classics–- the Amstel Gold Race. To aid them in an ever more desperate scramble for superlatives to describe Tadej Pogačar’s spring, the boys are joined by AG2R Citroën stalwart Larry Warbasse – who’ll be among those trying to prevent a Pog clean sweep at Flèche Wallonne and Liège-Bastogne-Liège.

We also hear from and about one of the revelations of recent weeks and the rider who came closest to thwarting the Slovenian at the weekend - Ben Healy of EF Education First-EasyPost.
