The Rouleur Podcast
Rouleur Podcast October - Pidcock, Peiper and Polartec Santini
Tom Pidcock launched his new team Trinity Racing before launching into a full season of racing in the mud and dirt of top level cyclo-cross on the Continent. The reigning under-23 ‘cross world champion had a decent road season too – first at Paris-Roubaix espoirs, stage and overall at Tour Alsace, and a terrific performance with the entire GB team at Tour de l’Avenir before a horror crash on a stage 6 descent knocked him out. But there was no way he was going to miss the opportunity of a medal on his home roads of Yorkshire in the World Championships.
“I love being around bike riders. That’s the amazing thing.” Allan Peiper, one of Australia’s pioneers in the pro peloton, is a hugely respected directeur sportif in the sport whose prostate cancer has returned this year. In an emotional interview with Rouleur editor Andy McGrath, Peiper tells us how the cycling family has closed around him and how riders – some well-known to him, some not so much – have been in touch to offer support.
Ian Parkinson visits Santini in Italy to get up to speed with their latest developments. Hairy vests, anyone? Think punk-era mohair jumpers, but for cycling. Stuart Clapp tells us what he’ll be up to at the upcoming Rouleur Classic, plus Kenny van Vlaminck, another special guest at the Classic, has some mixed news, mostly involving peas.

2. Live from the Classics: A fan's guide to Paris-Roubaix
31:48||Season 1, Ep. 2Rouleur's roving reporters Rachel Jary and Chris Marshall-Bell spent a day taking on the brutal but beautiful cobbles of Paris-Roubaix. Along the way, they asked the most important questions: Where are the goats? How many days in advance do you need to arrive to get a good spot in the Arenberg Forest? Can you fit more than five Oreos in the gaps between the cobbles? Is the Hell of the North really as hard as everyone makes out? And most importantly, can Chris beat Rachel in a sprint finish at the Roubaix velodrome? It was a big day out for both riders, but spoiler alert, they didn't take any Strava KOMs...Follow Rachel on Instagram: @racheljaryFollow Chris on Instagram: @cmbreportsSubscribe to Rouleur: rouleur.cc/subscribeWith thanks to the Centrum Ronde van Vlaanderen for helping us out with this podcast, find out more about them here: www.crvv.be/en
