  • 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.
