The bike saved my life: Amy Hudson on her biggest cycling adventure | Watts Occurring Femmes
Four years ago, Amy Hudson had barely started cycling. Now? Well, she just finished riding the entire men's Tour de France route... including the transfers.
She credits the bike with saving her life and her story is a remarkable, inspiring tale of human endeavour.
Emma and Manon were delighted to welcome Amy to the show - and sat there open mouthed as she told her story! We know you're going to love this.
Go and follow Amy! https://www.instagram.com/amy.cycling.adventures/

Oscar Onley on his remarkable breakthrough Tour de France | Watts Occurring
Pre-Tour de France, a lot of names were thrown around for the top 10. Not many lists had Scotsman Oscar Onley on them.
And yet the 22 year old from Kelso enjoyed a breakthrough ride at the world's biggest race. Fourth place overall, with a remarkable eight top-10 finishes, Oscar announced himself on the biggest stage and finished just a minute off the podium.
We knew we had to get him on the pod - and of course, Luke had to crown him as our Continental Tyres Chapeau of the Tour. Awards in cycling don't get bigger than that.
We know you'll love hearing from Oscar.
All being well, G will be back next week. See you then.

Tour de France Femmes review - and Emma got an MBE! | Watts Occurring Femmes
When Emma Finucane walked into the Watts Occurring Femmes studio yesterday, the team had to bow down at her feet. She's now an MBE!
Manon Lloyd got the inside scoop on what it's like to receive such an honour from Princess Anne. She also told Emma about her own recent brush with cycling royalty - when she interviewed G at the end of the Tour!
The girls also dig into the Tour de France Femmes and Pauline Ferrand Prevot's remarkable victory for France, before taking on a whole load of listener questions. And yes, that's where Emma revealed she once cried while at 1,000 watts. You need to stick around for that.
We'll be back next week with the incredible Amy Hudson, who's just finished a mindblowing cycling challenge of her own.

Post-Tour partying looks a little different these days | Watts Occurring
G and Luke are back with a post-Tour update - and things are a little different to how they were a few years back.
Plenty of family time for the boys and also a lot of big cycling news to catch up on: a brilliant Tour de Frances Femmes victor, a huge move for Remco (#littlebastard) and a big win for Luke's boys, Decathlon-AG2R, in Poland.
G's next up at the Tour of Germany and then the countdown begins to Tour of Britain... and his final ever professional race.
The boys will be back next week - but Emma and Manon will be back before that with a deeper dive into Tour de France Femmes.
