In our first regular episode of 2022 we anticipate the Grand Tours and ask whether it will be the third year of Pog \\u2013 Tadej Poga\\u010dar.
\\n
\\nDaniel Friebe has spoken to Poga\\u010dar\'s coach, I\\xf1igo San Mill\\xe1n, who describes him (Poga\\u010dar, not Daniel) as "the perfect athlete." We also hear from Poga\\u010dar himself.\\xa0
\\n
\\nAnd we hear from Egan Bernal, who Richard spoke to in between training rides in Colombia (Bernal, not Richard). Bernal tells us that while the Tour de France is his main focus he would like to ride Li\\xe8ge-Basgogne-Li\\xe8ge and Fl\\xe8che Wallonne as well.
\\n
\\nRolf Aldag, meanwhile, tells us about Bora-Hansgrohe\'s ambitions as they transition into a team with a focus on general classification in stage races.\\xa0
