With all the major classic races now showcasing both the men’s and women’s races on the same day, Grace explores the thinking behind the shift, and why it may be limiting the long-term growth of women’s cycling.

From heartbreak in Belgium to the looming chaos of cycling’s biggest cobbled Monuments, the Spring Classics are hitting full throttle — with drama, comebacks, and massive showdowns just days away.

Christophe Mallet sits down with Rachel Neylan to explore a journey defined by resilience, reinvention, and a lasting commitment to high performance, on and off the bike. *Advertisement – EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ nordvpn.com/sbscycling. Try i... more

Red Bull is set to headline a women’s team, with rising investment pushing salaries and star power to new heights. On the surface, more money in cycling, especially in the women’s peloton, should be a positive.

  • Great banter, analysis and interviews!

    Love it when a new episode drops. Macka and Christophe have a very funny and energetic banter, fabulous analysis and breakdown of the races and the riders, and Grace Brown adds yet another level of interesting insights into the current peloton and tactics. If you love watching pro cycling then this podcast is not to be missed. Keep up the great work team!!

  • Cycling go-to source

    These guys make Cycling in Australia better, both for the couch-peloton of fans as well as the ladies and chaps in Lycra that ride and love the sport.

    I love the way Christophe brings the international appreciation and love of the country where he lives. Macca has done it and knows the riders. So great to have had the chance to ride with him and learn by example. Love his insight

  • Easy listening

    Christoph and Macca really complement each other; their race rider interviews/behind the scenes insights are great. Easy listening podcast.

    All the ex pro commentators on SBS are affable and provide informative colour to the coverage of all the races.

    Matt Keenan knows his stuff but comes across as way too arrogant; needs to work on his tone and approach to other commentators (quite condescending). Whenever he’s not on the coverage in this pod is a bonus tbh.
