Hello and welcome to episode 1 of the Cyclist Magazine Podcast, we've been expecting you!
On today's episode, Joe and James discuss the Colle Fauniera. A giant mountain in the Italian Alps, it has long been forgotten by the Giro d'Italia but we think it should be near the top of every amateur's bucket list. It's also the home to every ambassador's favourite sweet treat.
They also chat about the great one, Eddy Merckx, but not so much about the man himself, rather his bike company that went from hero to zero.
Oh, and do forgive Joe's nerves for mistaking Jose Maria Jimenez's name for Juan Miguel Jimenez. Like you, we also don't know who Juan Miguel Jimenez is.
And QuickStep only managed five victories in 2011, not 11. How far that team has come!
