Orla is a star, and it was our pleasure to welcome her to the pod.

There was G, minding his own business on a leisurely training ride, when a flipping triathlete overtook him. Minutes later, the Cam Wurf wannabe had been pulled over the by the Gendarme for riding too fast.
A close escape for our Welshman, who's winding down now - but not before racing the Tour of Germany this week, and the Tour of Britain in a fortnight.
Luke's been busy too, DSing in Hamburg and now he's prepping himself for Renewi Tour. God speed, Decathlon AG2R.

Four years ago, Amy Hudson had barely started cycling. Now? Well, she just finished riding the entire men's Tour de France route... including the transfers. She credits the bike with saving her life and her story is a remarkable, inspiring tale of human endeavour. Emma and Manon were delighted to welcome Amy to the show - and sat there open mouthed as she told her story! We know you're going to love this. Go and follow Amy! https://www.instagram.com/amy.cycling.adventures/ Watts Occurring Femmes is brought to you by Rouvy, and hosted by Pinarello. Want a free month on ROUVY, on us?

Pre-Tour de France, a lot of names were thrown around for the top 10. Not many lists had Scotsman Oscar Onley on them.
And yet the 22 year old from Kelso enjoyed a breakthrough ride at the world's biggest race. Fourth place overall, with a remarkable eight top-10 finishes, Oscar announced himself on the biggest stage and finished just a minute off the podium.
We knew we had to get him on the pod - and of course, Luke had to crown him as our Continental Tyres Chapeau of the Tour. Awards in cycling don't get bigger than that.
We know you'll love hearing from Oscar.
All being well, G will be back next week. See you then.

When Emma Finucane walked into the Watts Occurring Femmes studio yesterday, the team had to bow down at her feet. She's now an MBE!
Manon Lloyd got the inside scoop on what it's like to receive such an honour from Princess Anne. She also told Emma about her own recent brush with cycling royalty - when she interviewed G at the end of the Tour!
The girls also dig into the Tour de France Femmes and Pauline Ferrand Prevot's remarkable victory for France, before taking on a whole load of listener questions. And yes, that's where Emma revealed she once cried while at 1,000 watts. You need to stick around for that.
We'll be back next week with the incredible Amy Hudson, who's just finished a mindblowing cycling challenge of her own.

G and Luke are back with a post-Tour update - and things are a little different to how they were a few years back.
Plenty of family time for the boys and also a lot of big cycling news to catch up on: a brilliant Tour de Frances Femmes victor, a huge move for Remco (#littlebastard) and a big win for Luke's boys, Decathlon-AG2R, in Poland.
G's next up at the Tour of Germany and then the countdown begins to Tour of Britain... and his final ever professional race.
The boys will be back next week - but Emma and Manon will be back before that with a deeper dive into Tour de France Femmes.

This week on Watts Occurring Femmes, Manon puts Emma under the spotlight. How do you win Olympic Gold? And how do you even begin to think about backing that up four years later, at your second Olympics?
This is a fascinating chat into Emma's mindset and shows just how she's become a world champion and three-time Olympic medallist at such a young age.

You've seen G's personal Tour debrief, but now enjoy Luke and Producer George breaking down the whole race by picking their top 10 riders from this year's journey round France. Live from a windy and rainy Paris, inside the excellent Continental Tyres base on the Champs Elysees, they ran through the riders who've left the biggest impact on the Tour in 2025. Agree? Disagree? Let them know over in the YouTube comments. Watts Occurring is brought to you by Continental Tyres

Well, that's that then. G has raced his final ever Tour de France stage. From the youngest man in the race who finished 140th back in 2007, to the 2018 winner, and now the oldest guy in the race. It's been a truly remarkable journey.
Yesterday's ride around Paris was G's 282nd Tour stage. Yes, you are reading that correctly.
The rain fell on Paris and put paid to our best laid plans to bring you a finish line pod with G but, once he'd dried off, had a shower and a celebratory beer, he joined Tom for a chat at the team hotel to reflect on a momentous day.
Enjoy - and thank you, G.

When a climber wins one stage at the Tour de France, that's usually that. Job done, get to Paris. But not Thymen Arensman.
What a ride from INEOS' Dutchman on the final mountain stage at this year's Tour. Chapeau, Sir.
And Pogi? Well, he did what he needed to do. Barring disaster, that's number four for the remarkable Slovenian.
Luke and Tom recapped all the action - and got to the bottom of the Yates Snr mystery. He's not happy with G!
We'll be back on Sunday with a VERY special pod from Paris.
