- Road to Paris: Paved With Gold
- This year, the Tour de France may have ended in Nice. But for the hard-working athletes involved, the road led straight to the Eiffel Tower in Paris. With a backdrop worthy of a classic film, where champions speed from Montmartre, past the Arc de Triomphe, onwards to the history books. With the Time Trial starting just north of the tower, in Invalides.

IN BETWEEN THE RACES WITH MONA MITTERWALLNER
In Between The Races is back for another season of insight into the world of cycling that you don’t often see.
We’ll be following along for the travel days, training days and rest days, and discovering how riders relax and reset after one race, and prepare for the next.
Every rider and team has a unique way of maximising their performance, and it’s not all about tough gym sessions or long hours in the saddle. In Between The Races brings you the downtime, team spirit, personal quirks and funny moments of life outside the tape.
In this episode, we’re with Mona Mitterwallner.
Mona is in her first year with Cannondale Factory Racing, a legendary team with a colourful character. It’s a big step for a rider, who after just one year in the U23 category, made the step up into the elite ranks and into one of the biggest and best-known teams in the World. What it’s clear to see is that this young rider has a mature head on her shoulders, and is benefitting greatly from the experience and expertise around her.
Hit the play button to see how Mona is growing in confidence, taking time to appreciate the rewards of her hard work, tackling the technicality of race courses and dealing with the pressure of being one of the most talked-about riders at the World Cup.
