She reflects on the evolution of the sport, from earning just €100 per month to witnessing the rapid growth, professionalism and global attention the women’s peloton enjoys today. From battling for position on the cobbles of the Tour of Flanders to managing the pressure and isolation of Grand Tour leadership, Van Vleuten offers a rare and honest perspective on what it really takes to win at the highest level and why, despite her dominance, she chose to walk away at her peak. 🎧 Listen on Spotify 🎧 Listen on Apple Podcast 📺 Watch on YouTube Enjoyed the episode?

Vogels also reflects on the dark ages of the 1990s, when performance enhancing practices were rarely discussed openly, but almost never came as a surprise, often hidden behind the so called omerta. 🎧 Listen on Spotify 🎧 Listen on Apple Podcast 📺 Watch on YouTube Enjoyed the episode?
