Banned Or Not Banned? Can The UCI Make Up Their Minds? GCN Show Ep. 664

The UCI has made some U-turns! This week, we dive into the rule reversal on handlebar width and the ban on time-trial helmets in road races - is it a positive step, or are they still not helping themselves? Plus, we celebrate Tadej Pogačar's historic season and discuss the surprising new full-suspension gravel bike from Trek. Finally, don't miss our reaction to the Women's World Road Race Championships upset and the latest updates from the Zwift Racing League.
