The Cycling Podcast / Stage 5 | Catania – Messina


It’ll soon be safe to go back in the water – which is good news for Lionel after he lost his sunglasses to the Strait of Messina while recording this episode of The Cycling Podcast from Scilla.

Lionel joins Daniel Friebe to discuss stage five which, as expected, went the way of the sprinters – although it wasn’t without drama along the way.

The Giro d’Italia lost one superhero in powder blue yesterday when Miguel Angel Lopez pulled out of the race and another Astana man announced his impending retirement, which will leave a shark-shaped hole in Italian cycling. Vincenzo Nibali, twice a winner of the Giro, arrived in his home town of Messina and announced his plan to retire at the end of the season.

We hear from Ciro Scognamiglio about that, we unpick Jumbo-Visma’s disappointing day on Etna yesterday with their sports director Addy Engels and ask if Richie Porte is right – is Romain Bardet a great outside bet for this Giro? Team DSM coach Matt Winston talks about how they are managing the great French hope.


There’s the light and shade of Sicily to discuss and much more.
