The Cycling Podcast / Kilometre 0 – Tao in the hunt

In this episode of Kilometre 0 from the Giro d’Italia, Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie called Tao Geoghegan Hart at his rest day hotel to get his verdict on the opening nine days of the race.

A brilliant time trial by Geoghegan Hart and his Ineos Grenadiers teammate Geraint Thomas kept them at the forefront of the pack stacked up behind leader Remco Evenepoel.

And then, on Sunday night, Evenepoel announced he’d be leaving the race having contracted Covid, which puts Thomas in the pink jersey and lifts Geoghegan Hart into third place and raises the possibility of him repeating his 2020 Giro win.
