32. The old and the new: Tour of Abu Dhabi and Paris-Tours
In this week's episode of The Telegraph Cycling Podcast, Richard Moore and Lionel Birnie are again joined by Eurosport's commentator Rob Hatch to discuss the closing week of the road racing season.
Attention was split between a new race, the Tour of Abu Dhabi, and one of the oldest Classics, Paris-Tours. Lionel asks whether new events on the calendar have a duty to be genuinely innovative by experimenting with racing formats.
There's also a look ahead to the London Six-Day with young British rider Germain Burton.
