3 Reasons Why Mathieu van der Poel Will Be The Greatest Cyclist Of All Time | GCN Show Ep. 426

Clock00:00, Tuesday 9th March 2021

Saturday's Strade Bianche treated us to some amazing bike racing. Chantal van den Broek-Blaak delivered a tactical masterclass to win the Women's race, and the Men's race was won by Mathieu van der Poel delivering an insane amount of power all day long. In this week's GCN Show, Dan and Si discuss why he might just have the potential to become one of, if not THE, greatest cyclists of all time.
