Description

The episode opens with a difficult but important conversation about rider safety and the loss of Finlay Tarling at the Volta a Portugal. EF Education-EasyPost sports director Tom Southam then joins Matilda Reynolds and Mark O’Brien for a look inside the Tour de France team car: how breakaways are planned, tactics change on the road, riders manage extreme heat and fueling, and the enormous staff effort behind a Grand Tour. Tom also reflects on his journey from racing in Australia to directing at WorldTour level, before looking ahead to EF’s Vuelta ambitions. Backed by Black Sheep Cycling.
