It's Official: Tadej Pogačar Is The GOAT. This Is Why | GCN Show Ep. 689

This week on the GCN Show, we tackle the ultimate question in cycling: following his incredible Milano-Sanremo victory, is Tadej Pogačar already the greatest of all time? We also take a look at the stunning (and expensive) collaboration between Factor and Bugatti, alongside the latest tech news including 32-inch mountain bike wheels and new rubber from Pirelli. Finally, we catch up on the latest headlines from the pro peloton, including Nairo Quintana’s retirement and the trial regarding Alejandro Valverde.
