Rachel Jary and Ian Cleverly mull over two fine races at Strade Bianche, then consider the upcoming Classics before moving swiftly onto Trappist ales and ‘beautiful’ Belgium.

Host Ian Parkinson asks Rachel about the all-star Team SD Worx, coming up in the Classics-heavy issue 110, out next week. We consider Paris-Roubaix and our endless fascination with cobbles. And Ian C draws the short straw and has to drink fine beers with the boys from Deserter, all in the name of research, of course. Proost!
