S14 Ep107: Bonus: The Cycling Podcast + Escape Collective Mash-Up
The people demanded – well, some of them asked – for a mash-up episode. At Alpe d’Huez, we gathered in a car park (a typically glamorous recording location) to record a bonus episode, which will go out later this week. The Cycling Podcast x Escape Collective. Or Escape Collective + The Cycling Podcast, if you prefer. Graham and I joined Caley Fretz and Iain Treloar for a freewheeling, sometimes whimsical chat about life on the road at the Tour de France, this year’s race, and how the media landscape has continued to evolve. Caley was an early guest on The Cycling Podcast way back in 2014, when he worked for VeloNews. In recent years, having established the Escape Collective, they’ve established their own podcast and have often joked about sharing the mic for a one-off episode. Midway through the Tour we found ourselves at the same hotel – the charming Saint Regis in Chalon-sur-Saône – and they were recording their episode as we were enjoying dinner. At some point, Caley shouted over and I joined them for a few minutes. Anyway, our people got together with their people, we thrashed out the terms and quibbled over the fine details and spent 40 minutes or so chatting about the Tour. We know that many listeners tune in to both podcasts so hopefully you’ll enjoy the exchange of anecdotes and ideas in the episode.

He will ultimately fall short, but his first Tour will still have been a success. Whether we’re more confident now of France’s 41-year Tour drought ending soon is, however, a moot point. In the final instalment of our Tour-long series, we hear from Seixas, team-mates and a man who’ll be key to the direction of his future: Décathlon CMA CGM chief Dominique Serieys.

Go to thecyclingpodcast.com In episode six of our series taking you behind the scenes of Paul Seixas's début Tour, we look at the 19-year-old's meteoric rise in the context of a sport increasingly obsessed with youth. As Seixas's podium and white jersey bids gather momentum, Daniel Friebe speaks to his first coaches in Lyon about how much of his story does – and doesn't – apply to other aspiring pro riders. We also hear from a top agent and team bosses about why WorldTour outfits are now recruiting riders in their mid-teens, in their desperate search for the next Seixas. Décathlon fought off stiff competition to lock him in when he was just 14 – but now that they have him, why are the French team still having to work hard to rein him in? Their head sports director, Luke Rowe, tells us.

This episode is available ad-free on our Friends of the Podcast feed. Subscribe at thecyclingpodcast.com The fifth instalment of our wall-to-wall, behind-the-scenes look at Paul Seixas’s début Tour de France begins where Seixas’s love affair with cycling and the Tour also started, in Magland, just a few kilometres from the stage 15 finish on the Plateau de Solaison. It was indeed an intense and emotional few days for the 19-year-old, as Daniel Friebe reports in this episode. As always, we hear from team-mates, coaches and opponents, as Seixas underlines his credentials as the man most likely to end Tadej Pogačar’s reign. Of course no one is any closer to knowing when that will be, or indeed how Pogačar will fall or abdicate.

Jean-François Bernard was his name, and we meet him in the fourth instalment of Ça Revient. Other interviewees in this episode include Tour boss Christian Prudhomme, Seixas’s coach Alexandre Pacot, his all-terrain bodyguard Tiesj Benoot – and of course Seixas himself.
