All hail Kristin Armstrong, the undisputed queen of Olympic time trials. On this week’s show, we discuss what makes Armstrong the best female time trialist ever, and offer a mea culpa for questioning her addition to Team USA’s Olympic squad. Plus, we explain why the Vuelta a España is the best grand tour of the year, and discuss which riders could win this year’s race. Finally, Colombian rider Esteban Chaves may look cute and cuddly, but is he actually a grand tour monster?
