Eight days on the road covering the 2019 Tour of Britain, condensed into one, slightly longer than normal, Home Roads episode. I front the tv coverage of the race, but this special podcast has a look behind the scenes, featuring some of the people who make it happen. You'll also hear many of the famous riders who compete, gaining an insight into the ups and downs of the often precarious life as a pro-cyclist - plus one who is undoubtedly the rising star of the sport. Includes interviews with Mathieu van der Poel, Matteo Trentin, Mikel Landa, Mark Cavendish, Mark Renshaw, Bernie Eisel, Steve Cummings, Alex Dowsett, Yanto Barker, Conor Dunne and many more.
