This week, we're putting forward a case for why Mathieu Van der Poel WON'T actually win the UCI World Championships this year. Dan's been thinking it through, and he honestly doesn't think the victory will be Van der Poel's this Sunday. But why? 
 
Meanwhile, we’ve also got news of lifetime cycling contracts, a new helmet-safety leaderboard, and how cyclists are now having to make way for bats...?
