    Love the Show!
    Gareth, Rob, and Simon never disappoint! Whether it is recapping the race or taking us along in the car, I can't get enough. Been watching the tour for 40 years, but I love experiencing it through the guys just as much. Keep it up gents. Well done.

    Laura Winter makes this show exceptional.
    Nice first show of 2019. All the guys are good, but Laura Winter makes this podcast excellent. She balances the egos of the guys, which is very needed. Please keep her on each time if possible, she gives a perspective that I don’t hear elsewhere. Cheers. Also, the show on INEOS and the discussion about that green washing controversy is excellent.

    Making it a part of the other TdF!
    Just so the crew and guests on the podcasts know, BeSpoke provides great listening for those in the other race, the Tour de Fleece. Around the world, folks with spinning wheels and spindles are turning fiber into yarn in this parallel event. Many of us do watch the TV coverage, but we continue to race throughout the rest of the day and sometimes after dark when all the other chores are done. You keep us entertained on the uphills, technical descents, and sprint finishes. Thank you!

    Engaging commentary
    I like the place setting that gives me a flavor of the place. I like the discussion of the race and interviews. Engaging commentary. Any more interesting dining adventures?

    Bravo from America
    What a wonderful show to listen to when sitting outside on a summer evening. You give us the colors to paint the TDF in our imagination.

    Great show if you can download
    I’m a big fan of the pod but cannot download the most recent 2 weeks. Have tried different devices and even UK VPN but constant error. Pity.

    Entertaining but Biased
    I would have thought a BBC podcast would have been unbiased, but it seems to almost exclusively focus on British riders at times. For example, the stage 21 2018 episode doesn’t even mention that Alexander Kristoff won the stage on Champs-Elysees, instead talking about Garient Thomas the whole time. It is an important part, but I was expecting more.
