S12 Ep125: Prudy Project – The 2025 Tour route(s)
About this episode
In this week’s episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe is joined by François Thomazeau & Richard Abraham, as we deliver our verdict on the newly minted 2025 men’s & women’s Tour de France routes.
François is in Paris to catch up with old friends and familiarise himself with the new Tour parcours. We discuss whether it really is a Jean-Marie Leblanc tribute Tour, how delighted Tadej Pogačar should be this evening…& why François may soon have to learn to love La Plagne.
