Episode 11 of Inside The Race – The MyWhoosh Racing Podcastarrives a little later after stage 5 the 2026 MyWhoosh Championship stage race due to UCI duties on the mic for both Matt and Emma last night.
On a stage titled “The mountain judges” all eyes were on the climbing specialists and the GC contenders as we headed to Columbia to take on courses that included the only 2 HC climbs of the race. The riders did not disappoint with every category seeing those who could use the ascents to put the rest of the race fields in the dock before heading into the rest day.
We are joined by both our amazing World Champions as Hayley gets the lowdown on the race from Kate McCarthy at midnight in New Zealand and all hear Jason Osbourne’s take on the racing from Spain earlier in the evening yet later in the show – yep that’s not a typo just the reality of a race that spans the globe!
In the last part of the show Matt has a bone to pick with Hayley before they and Emma look forward to Monday’s stage 6 of the MyWhoosh Championships is in Montreal for the much anticipated Time Trial stage.
