Join Rose Manley, Denny Gray and Lizzy Banks as they recap the first stage of the Tour de France Femmes. The team analyse a thrilling Stage 1 and pick out the winners and losers at this early stage. In true Cycling Podcast fashion, we leave the speculation to someone else - this time the riders themselves - including defending champion Annemiek Van Vleuten - as we hear what they expect from the week of racing. And we of course get a little French Flavour from Francois. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Science in Sport.
