2024 was a rollercoaster year for cycling! 🚴‍♂️🌟 From Pogačar dominating the Grand Tours to Cavendish making history and Kasia Niewiadoma triumphing at the TDF Femme Avec Zwift, there was no shortage of epic moments. 
 
But behind the excitement, the cycling industry faced challenges, with many brands struggling to recover post-Covid. Si and Dan dive into whether 2025 could be the year the industry finds its footing again. 
 
They also reflect on GCN’s highlights, GCN's independence, and what’s in store for the year ahead! 🎉
