by Harry Dowdney, Cillian Kelly and Stuart Downie
Did Not Finish is a new cycling podcast that runs the numbers of the world’s greatest sport. In each episode, three fervent fans take one fascinating fact from the world of pro racing and explore it from all angles—deep diving historical potholes, honking up steep tangents, rubbing elbows on hot topic debates. If this isn’t the best place to start for pro cycling’s most curious fans it’s almost certainly the best place to finish.

<p>Double digits for DNF and a triple for MVDP, what a weekend in cycling.</p><p>The best UK cycling podcast (verified) returns to unpick a topical statistic. Harry knocks off a Belgian's triple (think baker's dozen) of heady blondes, Stu sees unseasonable Scottish weather, and Cillian has his aunties round for tea before getting into the meat and potatoes of this week's fact. Adjacent topics include race names, pronunciations, whether perceived (or received) wisdom is any use, and some toast pops up (again).</p><p>A bulging email inbox also returns – send yours to [email protected] – and we round out with a bit of John Williams and a longing for cycling's equivalent of the Drake v Kendrick feud. </p><p>See you in the douches!</p>

<p>In episode 09 of DNF Harry is in a campervan somewhere between Ghent and Oudenaarde having just witnessed not one but two rainbow winners at De Ronde, and a few more besides. Rainbows abound! Magic.</p><p>After briefly basking in tales of watching racing and going roadside, Cillian regales the fellas with a topical week's stat – a triple rainbow on the podium at the men's race, which has not been done for a surprisingly long time. How long, we hear you ask? Listen in to find out.</p><p>We also briefly discuss Belgian beer (of course), the genesis of Johan Museeuw staying dry at Vlaanderens Mooiste, bike changes and getting lost in your own museum, plus a tantalising tale from Harry's pro cycling pillow talk palmares.</p><p>There's also an end to the email drought of 08 – thanks listeners! Send future correspondence to [email protected] for consideration (we love it).</p><p>Come away in!</p>

<p>For episode 08 of DNF, we join together to celebrate the life and rides of Primož Roglič—the greatest stage racer to never win the big one. Cillian, Harry and Stu discuss whether we care about the ‘other’ jerseys in a race, Wout van Aert’s demise as a race animator, and the numbers on your toaster. Cillian then has a radical plan to make racing more exciting in the boring middle bits, Harry brags about being inside Philippe Gilbert's 27 million euro apartment, before Stu tells us about the time he almost shared a cryo-chamber with Rog. </p>
