The Cycling Podcast

Description

This week's episode comes from the Six Days of Ghent, which is back this week after a year's absence. 

Richard Moore and Lionel Birnie report from a familiarly busy and raucous 't Kuipke on the opening night and speak to some of the star names, including Olympic Madison champion Michael Mørkøv and local favourite Iljo Keisse. 

We also hear from Maikel Zijlaard, riding his first senior Ghent Six and remembering his grandfather, who was one of track cycling's legendary derny riders. The director of the race, Christophe Sercu – son of the late Patrick – also tells us about this year's race and his hopes for six day racing.
