This week on episode 221 of The GCN Show we investigate Peter Sagan's crash at the Tour Of Flanders. Through our investigation we've determined there was a jacket hanging over the barriers that was certainly involved in the accident, but was it to blame? Or was Peter riding simply to close to the barriers?
Has Peter Sagan used up his 9 lives, just like a cat? Let us know in the comments 👇

We round up Sunday's Tour of Flanders with Philippe Gilbert and Coryn Rivera taking the victories. Two brilliant races that we were lucky enough to be able to witness. Oh, and the guys didn't manage to predict either of the winners!

Sad news regarding the death of Ultra Endurance Legend Mike Hall who died during the Indian Pacific Wheel Race in Australia. Our thoughts go out to Mike's friends and family.

We round up a few of our favourite April Fool's Day prank from the bike industry, including SRAM eTap downtube shifters, Fizik Disc Brake Specific Shoes and a Trek Nomade bike. Oh, and some of you thought we made one too... Something about a triplet hour record.
