Episode Notes

What does it take to win Olympic gold after breaking your collarbone just weeks before the Games?

In this episode of FRODENO GOING MENTAL, Jan Frodeno sits down with Tom  Pidcock. The two-time Olympic Champion, Tour de France stage winner,  Cyclocross World Champion and one of the most exciting riders in professional cycling reveals the mindset that helped him recover from devastating injuries, manage chronic knee pain and perform under immense pressure.

He explains why he walked away from one of cycling's biggest teams, how he rebuilt confidence with his new team and what the Tour de France is really like from the inside.

The conversation dives deep into resilience, motivation, mental health, identity, expectations, leadership, and the challenge of staying happy while competing at the very highest level.
