The Revolution Will Be Televised (But Probably Won’t Happen)

Season 11, Episode 140,   Nov 09, 2023, 07:42 PM

In this week’s episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe & Brian Nygaard delve deeper into one of the stories of a wild pro cycling autumn - the revelation that half a dozen World Tour teams want to launch their own league or series to help secure their (financial) future.

Brian was at the bleeding edge of two previous attempts to do precisely this - and he helps us understand why neither ultimately came to fruition.

There’s also the usual news round-up, including reports of a bleak outlook for the Tour of Britain.
