Episode Details

Zoe Bäckstedt, the 21-year-old Welsh cycling sensation, is poised to make history as the next British woman to win the Lloyds Tour of Britain—just like her idol, Lizzie Deignan. With a string of victories including the Baloise Ladies Tour and national titles, she’s riding on a wave of momentum, bolstered by two home stages in Wales. Though fresh off her Tour de France Femmes debut, her form is undeniable. Deignan, a two-time winner herself, praises the tour’s growing prestige and its role in nurturing talent, especially with expanded stages and global parity. This isn’t just a race—it’s a celebration of British cycling, free for all to watch, and a beacon for the sport’s future.
