Some Welsh Bloke | 25
The racing season is over but the pods continue and we’re beefing with Geraint Thomas in this week’s episode. The recently retired Welsh legend told Cillian to ‘get back in his box’ on Watts Occuring last week, but our Irish hero claps back. Tasty! Harry then starts a beef of his own, and of course, there are stats, lots and lots of stats.

The worlds is not enough | 24
It's Worlds week, but that's not enough for some riders, as the boys discuss why so many great GC riders over the years have been crap at the worlds and one-day races in general. Is the Worlds not enough for you, lads?! Somebody get Pierce Brosnan on the blower.

Pointless | 23
No, not that much-loved prime time British gameshow but your favourite fun fact-based cycling podcast back for its regular emission, this time inquiring into when a race is worth the effort for riders and fans.Inspired by goings on at La Vuelta, we take the Delorean to 88 for some adjacent facts/stats from days gone by, Harry reports back from taking the tumble at the Geraint Thomas retirement tour, Cillian issues a gentle rebuttal to a fellow podcast, Stu offers a rendition of some inspiring words dredged from LinkedIn, before we all delve into the mailbag for some global fan action and find out what Cillian's been doing fraternising with a Frenchman on the tellybox.
Did Not Finish is a cycling podcast that runs the numbers on the world’s greatest sport. In each episode, three fervent fans take one fascinating fact from the world of pro racing and explore it from all angles—deep diving historical potholes, honking up steep tangents, rubbing elbows on hot topic debates. If this isn’t the best place to start for pro cycling’s most curious fans it’s almost certainly the best place to finish.
