I genuinely loved this interview, I am a huge fan of Mark Cavendish and I really appreciated his comments about learning how fans are on the journey with the athlete. I have followed him for years and I’ve never seen him open up like this before. I hope to meet him someday so I can say thank you for the enjoyment I have had following him over the years.

I know this is a bit weird to say, but I'm really proud of how Cav has grown and matured. It's something that's bugged me about the Tour the last couple of years with Cav and G doing so well in their mid-30s they're seen as old and almost past it, when they're actually in their prime because they've now got the maturity and level headedness to understand the rough comes with the smooth. Which he shows brilliantly here.

Im a relatively new cycling fan so last year was only my second Tour de France and the Cav story was so epic, so consuming, So Much Fun to be a part of, it just sealed my love of this sport. I really loved this interview, I literally laughed and cried. What a guy. Also, Mark’s family is lovely and that little one! Doesn’t get much cuter than that!

I love Mark Cavendish on every level. But, and maybe this is particularly since I became a fussy anxious dad, I always want to tell him to use more sunscreen...

[@yellowquantum4240]

2024 .... Cav made it to 35 😮!!!!!!

Mark Cavendish is not only a humble guy but one of the best professional sprint cyclists ever.

[@LopanArchipelago]

Mark is an old soul and I love the man, not just the greatest sprinter EVER!!!

[@BronnyJamesBricks]

This is pure gold 💛

[@markhancock7527]

Great interview well done,i like the last line mark said & its maybe the best advice to give a young person.

[@davidcrichton6669]

well described. He allowed me to understand about Kelly Catlin. High achievement makes for a long fall down! Cycling is all about numbers with speed, weight etc. There isn't always an answer as we get older

[@valbarry5610]

Brilliant Mr Mark Cavendish!

[@felysusbilla]

Mark Cavendish is a great athlete and particularly my role model

THE GREATEST SPRINTER OF ALL TIME

I pick this podcast for my morning run, first because I really like Mark, second I like Orla. But while I tried very hard to enjoy the show, unfortunately in my opinion this podcast was super boring and sometimes annoying because the loud laughing of Orla (sorry to say that, but because I run with earphones, there were times I had to remove the earphones because the noise was too much for me) I really wish you could do something about the level of the mic) And talking about the content, In my opinion there was no order in the whole program. I really wish you the best in the next podcasts.

[@Lotustro]

Europeans... at least they think their interesting.

[@eleycki]

Thanks for this but can I say the sound levels were awful and the quality was poor. Tried to listen to this earlier on the pod and couldn’t make it through! Please look at this as I hope it improves. Thanks.

[@hennnnerz]

Yeah, really hard to hear greg and mark most of the time. Often muffled too.

[@ruairidhalexander7631]

I tried to listen to it in my car and it was terrible due to the wildly fluctuating sound levels and the acoustics.

Terrible title to this KZbin version of the podcast. Why emphasise the 'struggles with depression' when there was a whole lot more to this podcast!

[@melaniamonicacraciun9900]

Just like a TV network our daily life is filled of thousand one different things we care about, riding bicycles is vital, having life adventures maties is crucial, never let bad guys win to screw us the joy of life not even when sports competitions are moving on the next generation, let's share some more cyber hugzzzzz those who are not your fans yet, wishing you everybody never give up loving cycling and...giving all kids this heavenly joy of running wild out there as most beloved sons of Mother Nature, yeah, such an unforgettable feeling, you can bet on it fans.

[@melaniamonicacraciun9900]

Big big like awesome riders that gave us so many great cycling emotions, the Bible reminds us about a guy called Mathusalem that lived for more than four centuries, l trully wish we could double the human life expectation in order to have more time enjoying cycling adventures out there and bringing cycling partnerships world wide, mostly young generations and schools, yeah, what are we doing in this web connection if not being supportive those things we love the most? More bicycles for everybody plizzzzzz, more cycling happenings and never give up loving pushing pedals because. ..fans at home need you guys like the air we breathe Ok? These days...thanks Covid isolation l enjoyed to put the house upside down again, digging out the old magazines and sports souvenirs of....20 years ago... unforgettable guys, wishing you realize, over other 20 years from now on you will be same fond of cycling pushing pedals and enjoying spectacular adventures out there as fans at home do. The first time l started to use Google connection was 20 years ago.. like yesterday huh? That's what happens loving to ride the bike in this cyberspace, think about it. Fans love youuuuu guys no matter what
