About this episode

On the eve of the Tour of Britain heading up the famous Caerphilly mountain - where Luke and G learnt their trade - Luke grabbed his Tour of Britain roomie Magnus Sheffield to be the latest impromptu Watts Occurring guest. The boys are enjoying racing on British roads, although INEOS lost Tom Pidcock today to a nasty injury - you'll need to listen for all the details on that one.

In Spain, G's come close to that elusive stage win and is determined to keep fighting. There's also the small matter of a podcast GC battle with our old friend Wout Poels. Who cares about GC Kuss? It's all about G & Wout.

We'll be back on Monday catching up with G and Ambassador De Plus on the Vuelta rest day.
