Enric Mas pulls off an incredible victory at La Vuelta, but the decision to neutralise GC times on the final stage has sparked major debate. Plus, we look at standout performances from Primoz Roglič, Wout van Aert, and the Grand Prix races in Quebec and Montreal as the UCI World Championships approach.

In this week’s GCN Show, we dive into the data to find out if gravel cycling is truly a sport for the older generation or if the "young guns" are starting to take over. We compare gravel racing demographics to marathon running to see which sport offers more longevity and why endurance seems to peak later in life. Plus, we’ve got the latest in ultra-endurance world records, e-bike law controversies, and a roadside "zip-tie" chain fix that you won’t want to miss!
