  • Warny Shockwaves & the Sydney Showdown
    Mar 3 2026

    The Melbourne to Warrnambool delivered one of the most dramatic editions in years, with the so‑called “doomed” early break refusing to die and Josh Beikoff producing a staggering upset after 267km of grit, patience, and pure refusal to quit. Matilda Raynolds and Matt Keenan unpack how the big teams misread the race, why the smaller squads seized their moment, and what Ollie Stenning will be replaying in his head for weeks.

    On the women’s side, Sophie Edwards cemented her status as the Queen of Raglan Parade with a composed, clinical second victory, while Alyssa Polites and Kara Will lit up the race with breakout performances. Rising stars Meg McDonald and Emily Sanders forced their way into the conversation with huge rides that signal massive futures ahead.

    Then it’s all eyes on Sydney. The crew break down the wind‑blasted Cronulla crit, the maze‑like Pheasants Nest circuit, and the brutally honest Southern Highlands queen stage that could reshape both GC battles. With under‑19 and under‑17 racing adding even more unpredictability, the Harbor City GP is set to blow the league wide open.

    A packed episode full of race craft, rising talent, and the storylines that will define the run home in the Hertz ProVelo Super League.

    Feb 24 2026

    The Tour of Tasmania delivered chaos, carnage and career‑defining moments. Matt Keenan and Matilda Raynolds break it all down from Ruby Taylor’s breakout double, to Sophia Sammons’ commanding ride, to the wildest Launceston crit in years that flipped the men’s GC on its head. The Tassie block proved once again why it’s the most revealing week in Australian cycling.

    Angus Calder drops in with his PSL Pulse from the ground, highlighting the riders who stamped themselves as genuine Road to the WorldTour prospects — including Sophia Sammons, Levi Hone, and the fast‑rising Alec Franzke.

    Then the focus shifts to the biggest one‑day race in the country: the Powercor Melbourne to Warrnambool and the Lochard Energy Women’s Warrnambool Classic. Matt and Matilda unpack the history, the contenders, the storylines, and why this weekend feels like the true grand final of the domestic season.

    A huge episode full of talent ID, big performances, and the road ahead for Australia’s next WorldTour stars.
