With the Tour de France starting this weekend who better to sit down with than the voice of cycling himself, Phil Liggett.

Liggett has offered a soundtrack to cycling for almost 50 years, describing the sport of cycling to millions around the world from the commentary booth.

James and Joe chat to Phil about how he got into cycling commentary, his iconic partnership with the late Paul Sherwen, life after Paul and what makes the Tour de France such a special race.

*Apologies for the audio problems during the interview, we had some issues!
