Luke is up in Belgium at the moment and has been riding all the Classics that lead up to the big one on Sunday – the Tour of Flanders – and Paris-Roubaix just over the border in France a week later.
In this episode, we talk about how the races each have a character of their own and how the Grand Prix E3 is very different to Gent-Wevelgem. We talk positioning, fuelling and how to bounce back from a disappointing day as we answer some of your questions.
I hope it gives everyone a bit of insight into what these unique races are like to ride.
Until next time,
Mitch

Theme music
The theme music for Life in the Peloton was composed by Pete Shelley, who was lead singer of the punk band Buzzcocks. It was commissioned by the production company behind Channel 4’s coverage of the Tour de France in the 1980s and was used as the theme music for the nightly highlights show. Pete died in December 2018. We were given permission by Pete’s widow and his manager to continue using the music for the theme tune to Life in the Peloton. To hear more about the music, listen to the Andre Greipel episode of Life in the Peloton.
