Strade Bianche 2021: Video Debrief

Rouleur magazine editor Andy McGrath, and Rouleur contributors Amy Jones and Joe Timms dissect the day's racing action

There was Dutch domination at Strade Bianche today, as Chantal van den Broek-Blaak (SD Worx) and Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Fenix) escaped to victory. The Tuscan race's status as an instant classic in the cycling calendar was further cemented by a day of all-out action on its sun-kissed gravel roads.

How on earth to beat SD Worx? Is Bernal back? Why can't we ride like MVDP? Rouleur editor Andy McGrath and contributors Joe Timms and Amy Jones discuss all the talking points from the women's and men's editions.
