Domestique Cycling Podcast - The Big World Championships Preview
The 2025 UCI Road World Championships in Kigali could be the most brutal edition we’ve ever seen. With over 5,000 metres of climbing, relentless hills, altitude, and air quality challenges, this year’s Worlds is set to test the very best. In this episode of the Domestique Cycling Podcast, Bram is joined by Domestique editor Ethan and special guest Dan Challis for a full World Championships 2025 preview.
We break down both the men’s and women’s elite road races, analyse the form of the biggest names like Tadej Pogačar and Remco Evenepoel, and look at the outsiders who could surprise.
From the anticipated Pogačar vs Evenepoel battle on the streets of Kigali, to whether the Dutch women can finally get their tactics right, and the rising stars like Juan Ayuso, Isaac del Toro, and Kim Le Court.
