In this episode The Cycling Podcast looks back at the final Monument of the season, il Lombardia, otherwise known as the “Race of the Falling Leaves”. Did Tadej Pogačar manage to emulate last year’s success or was his Tour de France bête noire Jonas Vingegaard able to confirm his status as the peloton’s new climbing virtuoso? Daniel Friebe is joined by 2014 Lombardia winner Dan Martin and former team manager, communications chief & now journalist Brian Nygaard. We also hear, briefly, from Ciro Scognamiglio, who like Daniel was in Grenchen to see Filippo Ganna take aim at Dan Bigham’s recently established World Hour Record.
