Inside road cycling with Grand Tour winner Jai Hindley

In October 2020, Jai Hindley finished second in the Giro d’Italia. The then-24-year-old Australian had arrived. Two years later, after a near-flawless three weeks around Italy, he went one better. Giro d’Italia winner. Grand Tour champion. Legend cycling status secured.

 

Since then the Perth-born racer has worn the yellow jersey at the Tour de France, finished in the top 10, and is currently supporting Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe teammate Primoz Roglic at the 2025 Giro d’Italia.

 

He has a road cycling palmares that most young riders can only dream of - and this week on Just Ride, he joined Rob and Eliot from his training base in Switzerland to tell them all about it.

 

What’s it like to line up next to Tadej Pogacar? How do you deal with leadership tensions within a team? Can he win another Grand Tour? How cool is it for Red Bull to own your team?! Just how much do elite road cyclists eat now? There’s that and so much more.

 

Next time on Just Ride? We’ll be on more familiar ground for Rob and Eliot with a return of a previous Just Ride guest. You’ll have to stay tuned to find out who (hint: he goes very quickly downhill).
