    So, why is the Tour de France peloton getting faster and faster? That was the question I posed to UAE Team Emirates boss Mauro Gianetti, Geraint Thomas, and MPCC president Emily Brammeier during the race’s record-smashing final week.

    Later in the episode, we head into the heart of the Alps, and then down onto the boulevards of Paris for an audio retrospective of the Tour’s epic final weekend, featuring a chat on the Alpe d’Huez finish line with podcast alum Conor Delves, the star and creator of the acclaimed Cadel Evans play Lungs on Legs, who was busy hanging out with cycling royalty and prepping his next run of shows in the Alps.

    I also chatted to some British fans who made the pilgrimage to Alpe d’Huez (including one couple who’d been there for five days before the race arrived), and climbed to the roof of the Tour, the Col du Galibier, before embarking on the long, long drive back to Paris for the Tour’s thrilling finale on the slopes of Montmartre and the cobbles of the Champs-Élysées.

    And a few celebratory end-of-Tour beers too, of course.

    As speeds continue to ramp up at the Tour de France, spearheaded by the imperious Tadej Pogačar, we chat to Colnago’s lead engineer Filippo Galli about how to build a Tour de France-winning bike, why aero bikes are all the rage (even on the climbs), and why the biggest bike brands in the world are struggling to keep up with the rapid pace of the peloton.

    Plus, we headed to the UAE Team Emirates bus at the Tour to catch up with Bostjan Kavcnik, Pogačar’s mechanic and the man who built the future superstar’s first ever bike back home in Slovenia. Bostian chats about life as a Tour de France mechanic, his relationship, both personal and professional, with cycling’s most dominant rider, how it feels watching someone he knew as a kid winning the Tour every year, and the pressures of supporting the man in the yellow jersey…
