Richard, Lionel and François answer your questions about the Tour de France before saying their final goodbyes to an extraordinary 106th edition of the race. There are a few bonus interviews too. We hear from the newly recruited Deceuninck Quick Step Press Officer, Phil Lowe, on his experience of the Tour as 'bodyguard' to Julian Alaphilippe, and Jumbo-Visma Sports Director Merijn Zeeman, about Steven Kruijswijk's maiden Grand Tour podium. We also reveal the winner of our Austin Cycles AC ATTO competition. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Rapha and Science in Sport. The Economist also sponsors this episode.
