 Ever wondered how hard a Grand Tour actually is? This is an episode about the physical and emotional rollercoaster that you go on when you ride 21 stages over three weeks. What effect does it have on riders? How can you get the most out of your team?

From altitude and preparation through to guiding riders through the race while tracking vital data, Stephen gives us the inside line on how tough Grand Tours really are.
