S14 Ep151: Perky, Murky, Turkey

Join us on the transfer merry-go-round as Rose Manley, Rebecca Charlton and Lizzy Banks take a closer look at all the big deals at play in the women’s peloton.

Kasia Niewiadoma’s transfer after nine years at Canyon SRAM may have felt like a long time coming but will Lidl-Trek really offer the former Tour de France champion the fresh start she is looking for? And how will Movistar balance their potential leadership duo of Marlen Reusser and Paula Blasi if the Spaniard’s rumoured move comes off? Plus other notable changes for Pfeiffer Georgi, Cedrine Kerbaol and Lily Williams.

Also on the agenda: losing our balls, teamwomanananship and exploding ovens.
