The Cycling Podcast continues its review of the 2022 season by electing our “Comeback of the Year”. Egan Bernal and Milan Vader made miraculous recoveries from injuries that looked career-threatening, Jai Hindley successfully banished the memory of a wretched 2021…but it’s Geraint Thomas who takes the laurels thanks mainly to his third place in the Tour de France.

Before an extended interview with Thomas, Daniel is joined by Brian Nygaard to review the week's main news stories. We get the latest on B&B Hotels and Mark Cavendish, catch up on track and cyclocross news and also reflect on developments following the tragic death of Davide Rebellin.
