DAS-Hutchinson-Brother UK’s overall victory in the National Road Series and the team’s domination of the Ras na mBan are just two topics discussed by co-hosts Timothy John and Phil Jones, Brother UK’s Managing Director, in this packed episode.
The World Championships in Zurich, an exhilarating edition of the Tour of Britain Men, and British Cycling’s progress report on recommendations made by the Elite Road Racing Task Force are also analysed in detail.
Expert witnesses include Ras na mBan winner Mia Griffin, whose triumph on home roads followed her Olympic debut in Paris, and Irish U23 road champion Caoimhe O’Brien, who rolled out for her country against the world’s best female riders on a rain-soaked course in Zurich.
Ian Watson, the co-manager of DAS-Hutchinson-Brother UK, and rising star Louis Sutton, whose hugely impressive debut at the Tour of Britain Men won him a combativity award and the plaudits of seasoned observers, also share insights.
From the pressure faced by young riders in an era of accelerated career development to the commercial and budgetary context shaping British Cycling’s implementation of the Task Force recommendations, Phil and Tim apply the expert insights of a business leader and an experienced journalist to the biggest stories in domestic and professional cycling.
