In a bumper edition of The Cycling Podcast Féminin, Rose Manley, Orla Chennaoui and Lizzy Banks not only preview the upcoming World Championships in Wollongong but also discuss some six weeks' worth of Women's World Tour racing. Topics up for discussion include Marianne Vos' disqualification in Vårgårda, Team DSM's sprint tactics, the value of the "three Grand Tours" and the young upstarts making an impression on the Women's World Tour. Then New South Wales native Amanda Spratt offers her insight into the World Championships which return to Australia for the first time since 2010 as well as talking about her imminent move to Trek-Segafredo and her comeback from years of injury and illness. We look in further depth at the race course and also hear from some of the other teams in contention for the Worlds title, including Elisa Longo Borghini of Italy, Marlen Reusser of Switzerland, Leah Thomas of the USA and Elynor Backstedt of Great Britain. And of course The Cycling Podcast Féminin team offer up their predictions for what looks set to be a thrilling race. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Supersapiens and Science in Sport.
