In this week\\u2019s episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie are joined by one of Belgium\\u2019s voices of cycling, TV commentator Renaat Schotte, to preview this weekend\\u2019s elite World Championship road race in Scotland.\\xa0
\\n
\\nAfter the usual news round-up and a summary of the early moves on this year\\u2019s transfer market, our thoughts turn to Sunday\\u2019s course - and particularly the 14.3km Glasgow city circuit which will decide who inherits Remco Evenepoel\\u2019s rainbow bands, or indeed whether The Baby Cannibal can retain his title.\\xa0
\\n
\\nIn the last part of the episode, we change pace with some final reflections on the Tour de France - the drama of the yellow jersey battle, what will be our lasting memories of the 2023 edition and other salient talking points.
