#73 - More Triathletes Turning to Pro Cycling

Big changes are shaking up the world of triathlon and cycling! Georgia Taylor-Brown is making a major move to cycling—what does this mean for her career and the sport?

Meanwhile, watching these events just got a lot more expensive, with Eurosport shutting down in the UK and Ireland and its coverage moving to another channel at a significantly higher price. What impact will this have on fans and the future of endurance sports? 

We also take a look at the newly announced T1 event—is this the PTO stepping up to compete directly with Supertri? And in the world of T100 racing, Lucy Charles-Barclay and Jelle Geens are the last two contracted athletes to be confirmed. But with Taylor Knibb dominating, we have to ask—do the female contracts even matter if no one can beat her?
