S10 Ep148: Explore | Tour d'Ecosse stage 6: Glasgow Strathclyde Country Park
b'
We\\u2019re still in Glasgow, and this is the big one, the Queen Stage of the Tour d\\u2019\\xc9cosse with seven current Scottish Football League grounds on the route, plus a couple of wild cards.
\\n
\\nLionel and Simon drop in on Cathkin Park, the so-called \\u2018ghost ground\\u2019 and former home to the long defunct Third Lanark club.
\\n
\\nThere are stops at Hampden Park, home of the Tartan Army, Parkhead \\u2013 or Paradise to give it another name \\u2013 Cumbernauld and Airdrie, the club with two second names Albion Rovers, Hamilton Academical and Motherwell. We also explore the sectarian divide which splits the city with Kenny Pryde.
\\n
\\nThe eyes of the cycling world will be on Glasgow, and other parts of the country as Scotland takes centre stage in August 2023 as hosts of the UCI World Championships. The first \\u2018Super Worlds\\u2019 as Lionel calls it, will see 190 rainbow jerseys awarded across multiple cycling disciplines. But what will the World Championships mean for the future of Scottish Cycling? We hear from Jimmy McCallum and Peter Ellen of The Cycling Academy about the work to create the champions of tomorrow.
