Episode notes

Sir Bradley Wiggins and Orla Chennaoui summarise an action-packed first week of cycling action at Tokyo 2020 with a look at both the men's and women's road races and time trials.

There's also a look at the mountain bike event, won by Team GB's Tom Pidcock, as well as a reflection on how athletes deal with the mental weight of competing at the Olympics. Wiggins adds that he will never forget Tom Dumoulin’s post-race interview after the men's time trial.  

The pair also take time to acknowledge cyclists from the Refugee Olympic Team and why their story is so important.

Finally, there is a look ahead to the track events which kick off next week.
