Giro’s 20g bike weight debate & an epic Unbound year

from Off The Back - A Cycling Weekly Podcast

In this episode of "Off the Back," a Cycling Weekly podcast, Simon, Rook, and Andy dive into an exciting week in the cycling world. Jonas Vingegaard quite handily won the Giro d'Italia, earning a rare place in cycling history as one of just 8 male cyclists to have won all three Grand Tours while teammate Sepp KussEarned this trifecta by winning a stage in all three tours, and delivered a very touching post-race interview. We also cover the epically muddy Unbound edition, which certainly delivered a spectacle and lots of tech to talk about. We spoke at length about the emergence of a Gravel Super Team and  Keegan Swenson's selfless act to help his teammate, Mads Wurtz Schmidt, to take the win. And, of course, we also delve into the controversial disqualification of Lorena Wiebes at the Giro, sparking debates on UCI regulations.#cyclingpodcast #unboundgravel Find us here:Web: www.cyclingweekly.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cyclingweeklymagazineTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cyclingweekly1891X: https://x.com/cyclingweekly Hosted on Acast.
