Show Notes

Matt Stephens and Derek Gee chat about the attritional weather at the 2023 Giro d’Italia, and how a series of unfortunate events actually gave Derek the chance to make a big impact on the race. The Israel-Premier Tech rider is a comparatively late bloomer, and explained how the World Tour team gave him his lucky break at the age of 25. No stranger to the track, a national Time Trial champion, and possessing the ability to podium on almost any parcours, is there anything Gee can’t do?! Matt tries his best to stump him in the Ottawa quiz by asking Derek the price of donuts in his hometown.
