Cycling suffered a sad loss during the Trans Am endurance race Eric Fishbein from California was riding across Kansas when he was hit from behind by a car and killed. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Tech Of The week comes courtesy of Pirelli and their new cycling tyres, as well as Specialized Diverge as shown in action by Peter Sagan during the show and the new Bianchi Aria. Plenty of bling.

We’ve got action from the Tour de Suisse as well as some interesting stats from the race via Stat Attack Jon!

Don’t forget we’ve got Wattage Bazooka, Hack/Bodge, Caption Of The Week, Dom’s Tweet Of The Week, Comment Of The Week as well as Extreme Corner!
