About this episode
Rose Manley is joined by Flèche Wallonne Femmes’ biggest fan Lizzy Banks as they react to the 2026 edition.
With five former champions lining up for the race this year, the spoils really could go anywhere. Plus with surprise Amstel Gold Race winner Paula Blasi returning for a second Ardennes Classic, might fans be in for another big surprise?
Also on the agenda: fickle fan club presidents, cat skinning and getting your knickers and tongues twisted.
