Can the 2027 Tour routes deliver the racing we want? Tils, Marko and Lee debate the men's time-trial-heavy course and the women's British opening, London team time trial and Puy de Dôme finale.

Closer to home, Marko takes us inside his Gravelista race, Lee celebrates surviving the Hell Ride, and the crew compare their very different preparations for Tour of Bright.

Matilda takes a well-earned breather, leaving Mark O'Brien and Lee with the keys to the zoo. Lee recounts Around the Bay and a puncture saga, while Mark tells the story of Harry Leask putting the bunch under pressure at Glenvale.

The pair look ahead to the Tour of Bright and Gravelista, debate why big participation rides don't always translate into race entries, and weigh up Mark's next World Championships adventure. There's also a wrap of the international season and a little speculation about who might turn up for the Australian summer.

Fresh from the Gravel World Championships in Nannup, Marko O'Brien joins Tils to unpack the race from inside the front group: relentless climbs, huge efforts, a crash into the bush and the long fight to the finish.

Tils brings the view from the commentary box as they discuss Marianne Vos's victory, Tiffany Cromwell's attacking ride and Magnus Bak Klaris's surprise men's title. Hollywood Lee Turner arrives late with his own version of events, before the conversation turns to Paul Seixas at Il Lombardia, a big weekend of endurance sport and the latest Australian cycling news.
