It's the delayed decision for us

We wrap up this season of the CyclingTips podcast by talking about the unconfirmed but highly likely news that Mark Cavendish will join Astana. Can he break the Tour de France stage wins record with the new team? And where else could he have gone?

The question of where Mark Cavendish will ride in 2023 is still up in the air, but with Astana-Qazaqstan and Miguel Ángel López parting ways a potential spot has opened up over there. Plus, Colnago debuted their new V4R race bike, what's the deal with it?

The ASO confirmed last week that the 2024 Tour will conclude with a time trial in Nice, but what does that mean for the riders eyeing yellow? Remco Evenepoel could be one of those riders, as he announced he would race the Giro d'Italia in 2023. The Track Champions League ended in London, and Kit thinks everyone should tune into the series next year.

This week Shoddy took over hosting duties to chat about Nairo Quintana, criteriums, and some cyclocross.

The team gathers today to discuss the recent news at CyclingTips and some of the tidbits of cycling news that dropped throughout the week.

The UCI is trying to get people interested in Track Cycling with a new format, but is it working? Plus Lachlan Morton is eyeing Mark Beaumont's around-the-world record.

Where should Cavendish go? To Israel? To Ineos? To some random French team? Caley, Ronan, Kit, and Jonny debate the merits of various options, plus have a look at some denim cycling shorts, a new Pro Continental team, and, of course, the results of the Saitama Criterium.

It's Wrestlemania on this week's podcast as we dig into the stunning victory of Jonas Vingegaard over Chris Froome at the Singapore Criterium. Then, of course, it's time to talk Tour de France. The routes were announced last week and we have thoughts. Perhaps this is the first year we can cover it with an electric car?

A 17-year-old just signed with Jumbo-Visma. Sort of. This week, Caley, Ronan, Jonny, and Kit talk about the trend toward younger and younger signings, plus Egan Bernal's slow return, rumours that Cav may not be headed to B&B, and a little dig into equipment sponsors for 2023.

We open this week's episode with news of Benoit Cosnefroy's not broken arm, Mario Cipollini's potential jail time, and Davide Rebellin's retirement at 51. Caley, Jonny, and Ronan then dive into the Giro route, which was announced this week, and into the latest reporting around Mark Cavendish's move to the French B&B Hotels team.
