Kilometre 0 – George Bennett

Season 8, Episode 166,   Oct 20, 2020, 10:25 AM

"As long as I've been a good bike racer, I've had this problem."

George Bennett has suffered from a long term health issue since the beginning of his career as a professional cyclist. Last winter he underwent surgery in attempt to correct it.

He had a fantastic start to the season restart, winning Gran Piemonte and coming second to Jakob Fuglsang at Il Lombardia, in addition to playing a vital role for Primoz Roglic at the Tour de France.

Bennett will be a key lieutenant for Roglic once again, at the Vuelta a España - we caught up with the Kiwi ahead of the race.
