In our stage six podcast from the 2021 Tour de France we discuss Mark Cavendish's 32nd stage win at the Tour de France as he gets closer to the record of stage wins held by Eddy Merckx, even if Cavendish resists references to this.

In this episode Richard Moore, François Thomazeau and Kate Wagner discuss the stage and we hear from Kasper Asgreen, Michael Morkov and Roger Kluge, as well as our audio diarist, Connor Swift. And there are some birthday messages for Lionel Birnie, including from the "Flying Black Pudding," Simon Yates.
