VeloVoices Podcast 197: ‘Roglic should be banned from all ASO races’ (not really)

Kathi, Luke, Midge, Issie and Euan are here to run through the first full week of the 2022 Tour de France.

We celebrate the racing and the riders, there’s been so much to love this week and we’re here to love it.

From the riders who love to race, to the stages that delighted us, we celebrate it all.

Starring Wout van Aert, Tadej Pogacar, Bob Jungels, Thibaut Pinot, cobbles, hay bales and so much more.

We go through some great questions from Twitter and preview the big stages coming this week.

Obviously it wouldn’t be the VeloVoices podcast if we didn’t stray off piste with detours through rhyming slang, beaches and Mandela Day.
