Coming into stage 7, the battle for the yellow jersey remained tight with a number of untested climbing talents among the top ten. Defending champion Demi Vollering also has time to make up on her closest rival Kasia Niewiadoma. So who reigned supreme with the final challenge of Alpe d’Huez just a day away?
Plus Denny and Rose take on a challenge of their own when faced with a large cheese platter and only 15 kilometres to left in the race.

WARNING: EPISODE CONTAINS VERY LITTLE CYCLING CHAT!
Our Vuelta coverage started earlier this week with a pre-race KM0 very much inspired by this year’s Portuguese ‘Gran Salida’, plus our usual XL Preview episode - and the build-up continues with our now traditional wine-lover’s guide to the route.
As usual, Dvine Cellars have put together a case designed to take your taste buds where the peloton will ride over the next three weeks. On Thursday, before flying to Lisbon, Daniel also headed to Dvine's London HQ for some, ahem, vital last minute prep - and below you can hear his conversation with our and Dvine’s resident guru of the grapes (or maybe “Sultan of Smashability”??), Greg Andrews.
UK residents can order the Vuelta selection here -https://dvinecellars.com/products/the-cycling-podcast-la-vuelta-24 - while overseas listeners should glean enough from Daniel’s chat with Greg to assemble their own approximation. Please drink in moderation and ¡Salud! to all!

Join Rose Manley and Denny Gray as they unpick a drama filled Stage 5 at the Tour de France Femmes.
We find out what happened out on the road after the yellow jersey changed hands during a stage that had been originally classified as ‘flat’ and ponder on what this huge upset in the standings might mean for the final GC.
Plus we hear from the Swinkels sisters - Karlijn and Sylvie - who are racing together, or rather against each other at the Tour de France Femmes for the first time.
And even two closed fromageries can’t stop Denny on his quest to find more cheese at the race.
Join Rose Manley and Denny Gray as their European road-trip aka the Tour de France Femmes continues into Belgium.
In typical Belgian style stage 4 offered punchy hills, aggressive racing and pouring rain on a parcours that combined climbs from two Ardennes Classics - the Amstel Gold Race and Liege-Bastogne-Liege. With plenty of Classics specialists among the GC contenders the stage certainly offered much to talk about.
Plus, Denny’s adventures in fromage continued and so did the ongoing all-important debate over whether Belgium should be classed as a “cheese country”.

such sad news. thoughts are with family and friends.
Lads, come on, you mention UAE and Gazprom in the same sentence, then refer to actions taken by sports governing bodies, how, why or when would you care to mention the fact that we've had several races in the middle East already this season, where there is a very significant conflict, in fact currently the most grievous conflict as per the UN, where the UAE and Western powers are involved in a war in Yemen, which you fail to touch on, how is that possible, hundreds of thousands of people displaced, killed, including massive numbers of children, yet the cycling world is silent, no boycott, no blitzing of information, no humanitarian gestures....you'd think the first time conflict /war ever occurred was in Feb 24th.....I'm really dissapointed with you lads, you are articulate, informed, just look at Daniels recall in your final piece, yet Silent on Yemen, as is most of the world, hypocrisy and double standards are rife! I'm not here to defend Russias actions, however to overlook the fact
Thank you guys, great podcast.
My favourite podcast, sorry to see Kate go but she'll be back. Loving the Tour but I think we all needed a bit of rest after the first 9 stages, wow, what a race!
Love this podcast, Cav back to his best.
Very expensive unfortunately
Awsome story, thank you!
I've tried sticking with you guys, but after the Mathieu van Der Poel bashing episode, I just can't. Best of luck to all of you, and happy trails.
Brilliant to hear from Tom Pidcock and fascinating for having a current Pro rider hosting it. Pidcock was a wonderful junior talent, similar to Lucy Garner who looks like getting her cycling career back on track. Tom is even more talented, possibly Merckx like! With his physique, talent and mentality, I'm hoping he'll become the world's best for many years, in classics and GTs.
Compensation and prize money will always be about supply and demand.
Daniel The egg story is not yet on Harry Potter level, but go on :)
Hi Mitch! Firstly thanks for great podcast! I am Listening it since the Orica times. When you had a proper mullet :) You are saying that next pody is the last one and a special on? My sixth sense is saying that you will open a mystery box of Primož Roglič and showing the world that he is not so quiet one :) Keep up a good work! And come to Slovenia for a bit of great Cycling, ask Mezza about it ;)

Loved every minute Mitch
Hey Mitch, just one reason why people set the difficulty to zero is for racing. With no gradient simulation, the race is a flat road, so you don't get hit by gear changes and/or fatigue from climbing
Really enjoyed this episode, loved the discussion on the favourite parts of the Ronde
"Rim brakes are just as good as discs", she says, not having ridden discs....
Porte would also need to stay rubber side down
woow maybe because I am Dutch but this is crap
in my opinion this is by far the best cycling podcast , I enjoy these throughout the whole season
