S11 Ep10: The Pog Days Aren’t Over

<div>In this week’s regular episode, Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie are joined by former Team Sky and Katusha ace turned gravel-racing maestro Ian Boswell. </div> <br> <div>After our usual round-up of the week’s news, it’s time to reflect on Tadej Pogačar’s 2023 racing début at the Clásica Jaén Paraíso Interior - and his scintillating victory on the white roads of what has already established itself as Spain’s answer to Strade Bianche. </div> <br> <div>The Pogcineration on the Andalusian farm tracks is also our cue to quiz Ian about what’s in store for him and the gravel scene generally in 2023. Then, in the last part of the episode, we hear from EF Education First - Easypost’s Esteban Chaves about his recent victory in the Colombian national road race championship and what made it so poignant. </div> <br> <div><strong>The Cycling Podcast is supported by Supersapiens and Science in Sport.</strong></div> <br> <div> <strong>The 11.01 Cappuccino</strong><br> Our regular email newsletter is now on Substack. <a href="https://thecyclingpodcast.substack.com/">Subscribe here</a> for frothy, full-fat updates to enjoy any time (as long as it’s after 11am).</div> <br> <div> <strong>Supersapiens</strong><br> Supersapiens is a continuous glucose monitoring system that helps you make the right fuelling choices.
