The Cycling Podcast S12 Ep133: Review of 2024 - Ep.6: Man of the Year
Dec 11, 2024
01:14:57
On the eve of Time Magazine naming its ‘Person of the Year’ for 2024, we offer absolutely no surprises by naming Tadej Pogačar our man of the year just past.
‘Pog’ has been briefing the media on what to expect from him in 2025 - and Fran Reyes has been on the ground in Spain taking notes. In this episode, Fran tells Daniel Friebe and Richard Abraham what he’s heard from the Slovenian and some of those who either masterminded or assisted his all-conquering season.
Before all of that, we also discuss the two main news headlines of the week: Patrick Lefevere leaving his CEO position at Soudal-Quick Step and Tom Pidcock signing for Q36.5.
