Pogačar and Van der Poel are getting ready to face-off at the Tour of Flanders next weekend! They're the hottest properties in men’s cycling right now, but are they ACTUALLY as good as we’re all making them out to be? Or does their legendary status have something to do with the epic "rivalry" they have against each other? Dan Lloyd &amp; Si Richardson dive in!  
 
Plus, new pedal designs, a book from a former GCN presenter, and why the UCI are reversing a measure they put into pro cycling to improve safety just a few years ago...
