S12 Ep128: Review of 2024 - Ep.2: Annus Horribilis

The Cycling Podcast

We continue our review of the men’s 2024 professional season, this week focussing on the riders, teams and trends that had a year to forget.
After Daniel’s controversial suggestion last week that it was in fact such a bad year that it was a good one for INEOS Grenadiers, who will come under the spotlight this time around? Rob Hatch has at least one nomination for a team that fared worse than the Brits - while Richard Abraham is blowing raspberries at the whole, once great cycling nation of France after its lacklustre few months.
Cofidis certainly didn’t wow anyone in 2024 - and we hear from one of their departing riders, Harrison Wood, about why it became an annus horribilis for that team.
