  • EP8: Luke Rowe, The Folly Of Tour De France Cobbles, And The Art Of Road Captaincy
    Luke Rowe is, for many, the greatest road captain of the 21st century, playing a key role in 5 consecutive Tour de France wins for Teams Sky and Ineos between 2015 and 2019. Focusing on one of the most dangerous elements in cycling - the cobbles - the Welshman tells Brad and Graham of his huge reservations about their continued use in the Tour de France. He explores whether the damage they do both to riders’ bodies and ambitions - and the fan experience - is worth it, despite his admiration for the few he’s watched who seemed, somehow, to thrive over them. Luke also explores the mindset required to carry out one of the most selfless jobs in sport: putting in more work than even the most dedicated domestique to guide others to glory at the expense of your own, with very little recognition outside of the peloton. Brad then explains how Luke's path to road captain always looked clear - even as an under-23 - while the 2012 Tour de France champion reveals, with a clear hint of regret, how he remains unsure of the exact reason why he was not selected to ride in the service of Chris Froome in 2014. Meanwhile, a surprising twist emerges during this week’s Ultimate Cyclist, as Brad and Luke debate the rider who had the greatest bunch skills ever seen in cycling.

  • EP7: Andy Schleck, The Col Du Galibier And Making Peace With A Belated Tour Victory
    In this episode Brad and Graham are joined by Andy Schleck, the man Brad most feared as he rode to Tour de France victory in 2012 and the closest rider he’s seen to Tadej Pogačar. The Luxembourger was retrospectively handed the 2010 Tour de France title after Alberto Contador, the man who controversially beat him by 39 seconds that year, was found to have taken performance enhancing drugs. That forms a major part of this fascinating chat, as Schleck admits it took a long time to accept his victory but rues the missed opportunity to celebrate it properly at the time. But it is Schleck’s extraordinary ascent of one of the Tour’s most agonising climbs, the Col du Galibier, that centres the episode. In 2011, he used the Queen stage of the race, concluding up the Alpine pass, to launch one of the most memorable attacks in Tour history. It was an attempt so silly that even his teammates tried to persuade him to switch to a plan B. Here he tells Bradley and Graham of his unwavering faith that his idea would work and how, when it did, the whole peloton lauded his effort as he closed in on the yellow jersey which he took the next day after another climb of the Galibier. Yet ultimately he couldn’t hold on, finishing 2nd overall after losing time on the penultimate stage, an individual Time Trial. Brad also reminisces about his battles with Andy and the pair reveal the one time they both refused to continue riding, climbing together into the warmth of a car instead as snow poured down around them.

  • EP6: Sir Mark Cavendish, The “Beautiful” Champs Élysées and his brotherhood with Brad
    The Champs Élysées, the iconic conclusion to the Tour de France since 1975, helped Sir Mark Cavendish, the race’s most decorated stage winner, make his name. Four of his 35 stage victories came there. But one moment on the Champs Élysées remains the most memorable on a bike for both Cavendish and Bradley. In this extraordinary episode, “Cav” joins his old mate Brad and Graham Wilgoss to delve into the final moments of the 2012 Tour de France when Brad, wearing yellow and on his way to overall victory, led out his teammate, wearing the rainbow World Champion jersey, for the final sprint to victory. They reveal how the plan had been hatched in a hotel room five years earlier, and constantly remind each other of details the other had long forgotten - including the moment another sprint king found his way on to the team bus for a chat with the fastest man on a bike. There are countless other little-known Champs Élysées stories too, as Sir Mark delves into the minutiae of how to win the unofficial “World Championship of Sprinters” and how the whole Tour felt a waste on the occasions he failed to do so. And in probably the most poignant chat of the entire series so far, Brad and Cav open up on the depth of their friendship, how they have helped one another through their darkest moments and why their bond can never be broken. You won’t want to miss this one.

  • ESPRESSO: Tour de France Rest Day 2 | Cycling's Rare Sportsmanship, Hot Vs. Cold Climbs & Knighthoods For Indoor Training!
    As the Tour's riders take their 2nd rest of 2025, Sir Bradley returns with his verdict on some of the week's huge stories, centred on his history and knowledge of the great race. This episode, joined again by producer and sports commentator, Toby Gilles, Bradley reveals how there's not much rest on a rest day and how your planning for it can impact your GC chances. He also discusses why cyclists' mentalities are different from other elite sportsmen and women, after the peloton refused to take advantage of Tadej Pogačar's misfortune when he fell on stage 11. Bradley then talks injury recovery and the use of indoor trainers, following Jonas Abrahamsen's sensational stage victory just 29 days after breaking his collarbone, and nominates the young rider he believes will be the next first-time winner of the Tour.
