Petra Stiasny didn’t grow up dreaming of the peloton — in fact, she didn’t even know competitive women’s cycling existed. Now, she’s a standout climber for Roland Cycling Team and a rising talent in the world tour.
She joins us to share her unique journey into the sport, her first pro win, and what it’s like learning everything from scratch — including how QOM points actually work. We also discuss her love for mountainous races, her studies in nutrition science, and the structural challenges still facing women’s cycling.
Of course, we also cover the latest race news — with more well-deserved Sarah Gigante praise — and wrap things up with a very hot take from Petra on her Tour de France Femmes podium prediction. The countdown to the TDFF is officially on!
