G’s home from Rome and checked in to give Luke a quick download on an incredibly emotional weekend, which saw him pipped to the pink jersey by Primoz Roglic.
What a three weeks it's been, and G even had time to give his old friend Mark Cavendish a hand in winning the final stage! Luke’s been lapping it all up at home, but there’s already talk that we might see the pair of them at the Vuelta in August…
Thanks to all of our listeners for the overwhelming support across May. We’ll be back next Tuesday with a full Giro recap, once G’s had a chance to let it all soak in.

On what was supposed to be a ‘calmer’ day at the Giro, there was more drama yet again.

Luke’s been soaking it all up from the sofa and the boys caught up to discuss two more wild days of Giro action. But will the 2023 edition ever calm down? Probably not.
